They may be comparable on that day on that dyno

I guess thats what it comes down to - in this instance we can compare them, and Ryan made more torques than I did :pirate:

What mods do you have for 177.7awkw?

- GCG Highflow turbo

- Impul ECU

- Plenumn Spacer

- HDi FMIC

- Scottys 3" exhaust dump

- K&N Filter

No worries Paul about the F connectors.

Maybe Ryan had more torque on the day due to having a stock turbo that boosts quicker than a highflow.

Yeah could be, Dunc would need his tuned to make the most out of the high flow. Ryan still wouldn't actually have 566nm at the engine though. That is only 566nm of tractive effort.

Went for a quick spin to the St Peters bakery and the tv reception was great. When would you able to do the english language conversion for me?

you dont read do you. they are comparing their figures to eachother, no one gives a shit about whether its tractive effort, or engine torque. they are COMPARING the figures that the dyno spat out

Go back and read from the my first post on the subject sweet heart!

You clearly don't read as Ryan and myself made NO comment on comparing the 2 results. Im purely saying to Ryan that his torque reading is not correct!

F*ck me some people on here get excited very easily!!!

Look. The most important thing here is my car makes more torques than Duncs. Don't ruin this by making it an arguement on the accuracy of different dynos and the semantics involved.

As an aside for the c34 folk, big fella made a fair bit less power than us, and the guys on the dyno said it was hitting speed cut. Would this have been causing a lower figure to be reported?

Possibly could of caused it to loose power from speed cut. But I would say its just becasue its a C34. Looks like you and Dunc will be able to beet him on the track. :thumbsup:

Meh, power figure was lower than I thought. But that just means all of the cars that can't beat it should be more embarrassed!

Not an issue tho, just a good baseline comparison for my tune, just gotta decide which option to take???

he he how egos will fall :whistling: . really can't wait for a la la day to be organised a true test of machine much better than the rollers and wasn't the highest stag there today a 34

Isnt nisstune the easy go to option for c34?

Good day at dyno day. Did I miss anything cool?

yeah nistune easy way for a 34 as long as its not series 1, but then other options give you ability to control tuning yourself :thumbsup: if your into that

Just out of curiousity, what did the best Stag do?

whats the go with this unit HSK F-CON V pro GOLD ................. how do they compair to the stand alone NISMO ECU ?

Its an ecu that takes full control of the engine, other than the cams and throttle. The stock ecu remains to control them and the rest of the car. I just got mine installed tonight but there is a few niggles to work out before I would recommend one. The other hassle is finding a tuner, there are very few HKS dealers around the place and they charge through the nose...

The Nismo ecu is a plug and play remapped replacement computer that doesn't "need" a tune, but it would still need an Emanage to control it imo.

sweet well let us know how you go!!!

I installed a set of dale's sway bars, adjustable links and big rear brackets yesterday. No real problems, just some difficult bolts and tight clearances around the exhaust for the rear bar. Got it on, but had to drop the exhaust.

All up about 3 hours work. Haven't been for a hard drive yet, but did about 40km yesterday and everything seemed good. I'll re-tighten everything this morning and go for a blast through the hills.

    • Have you put an aftermarket oil pressure gauge on and verified your oil pressure?   Noise being on the block, on exhaust side, how high up the block does it seem to be? It could be the VCT system getting cranky, especially if it's mainly at idle, and when warm, as that'll be your lowest point for oil pressure. Could be showing that oil passages / VCT solenoid are blocking.
    • Well, hydraulic lifters will get noisy if they are dirty/fouled in some way, and exactly how that manifests will depend on exactly what schmutz is where. There is a procedure on here somewhere for dismantling and soaking/cleaning them. Replacing them with new is about 50% of the work and about 5% of the money!
    • Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy this is is a hydraulic lifter engine. Yea right i did not realise the lifters were supposed to be compressible while installed. I could push them down but i had to lean almost my while body weight on them.  I have never heard of a lifter/ lifters ticking only at hot idle and getting worse the hotter it gets. I have owned a few jdm cars with noisy lifters. This noise is slightly more subtle, it is more of a sharp gentle metalic tic than the solid and more loud tapping I've heard on lifters. I have used a metal rod, alloy tube, hose and stethoscope and could not find the source of the tick. But it appears to be loudest on the actual engine block behind the exhaust cam gear and next to the oil filter. I had mate (40 year old mechanic) go over it with me and he couldn't find it either..  Could it be a cam seal issue of some sort?  Cheers  
    • This seems problematic and unlikely at the same time. Vanilla RB2Xs have hydraulic lifters. They do have "zero" clearance, but only when running with oil pressure inside them. When not running, you should be able to compress them and obtain heaps of clearance. RB26s and Neos have solid lifters. They should have ~0.3mm and ~0.5mm on the inlet and exhaust respectively. If they have zero clearance then bad things are happening. With nothing else being wrong, it would mean that the valves would be held slightly (ever so slightly) open when they are supposed to be closed and it should have all sorts of problems when running, caused by leakage in/out through the valves. Or, zero clearance can indicate severe valve seat recession. None of it is good. Have you used a piece of hose as a stethoscope to try to localise the noise?
