Mod RWD.

Standard class is for Nissan comp and exhaust housing turbo, std injectors / AFM

Not that it would make a difference to me as I will be limited to injectors

But couldn't see AFM restriction in Martin's link

Ok, I don't know what dorifto chassis is but I have a sudden craving for Doritos..

I hear they give the kids trophies just for participating these days..the whole system has lost its merit..but that's ok you enjoy your trophies young chap. ;)

you should be more concerned with your alignment than engine mounts :laugh: if this is your first track day you would be better off checking the wheels are straight

Second day lol.

I think i'de rather have my engine not fall out rather than extra camber lol

How much camber do you have? On streeter tyres you want to run around -2 all around anyway, even -3 is not that bad, although on the rear is a little excessive.

Engine mounts on SR's are a right PITA!

yeh they are just Nitto Invo's, being more daily than a track i didnt think semi's go to well with this weather. hopefully i can find another set of cheapo track wheels down the track.

currently about 2-2.5 on the fronts and about 1-1.5 on the rears since lifting the car abit over the weekend, the car handles much better than it did before. might take out some damper for a bit less bumpyness.

i was told the mounts arent too hard to swap out, just mine has a nice f**k off sized turbo about 1mm from the nut holding it lol hence where scott comes in.

but the current mounts are well and truely f**ked. the engines rocking a stupid amount and you can feel it wobble while idling, also the gear stick is moving quite abit so i think it needs to be done before i decide to fang it around sandown.

Mine on the 15 were dead as well. One side was easy, the other side.....not so much. iirc the drivers side one as the power steering in the way.

Camber seems fine for light track work.

I run -3 on the front and -1.8 on the rear.

    • There is a LOT of stuff that can be done, it all depends on how much time and money you want to spend on doing in.  Not all ECUs will be able to do it, and the more control you need the more time and knowledge needs to be put into making it work.  If you're willing to spend the time and money and have the right hardware and skills involved there's a lot that can be done. 
    • I am impressed with all this level of adjustment. I didn't expect all this possibility
    • Correct.  In the case of the 500kw dyno plot I showed you the car actually runs two boost control solenoids for boost control and a 5psi wastegate spring.  It allows me to control how much boost pressure is applied to both sides of the wastegate valve at any point and fairly accurately control boost target as a result. I've tuned it so that it's able to target anywhere from 5psi to 25psi depending on what's needed.  The target tables I've set up in that car are Gear vs RPM, so every gear has potential for a different boost (and torque) curve.   First and second gear have quite low boost targets, third gear actually has different target boost all the way through the rpm range as it's a stock RB25 gearbox - the boost targets have been chosen to maintain a peak of 600nm (what the owner has set as the maximum torque he's happy with putting through the stock 3rd gear) but it carries that to the rev limiter.   The boost curve to achieve that is something of a ramp up, then hold, then ramp up again and the power curve looks more like a flat line haha.  
    • so you can decrease or increase the boost depending on the diet as you wish?     by acting on the wastegate?
    • That's torque and power, it's all from a single run.  The boost curve is "held back" from it's peak target in the 3500rpm to 5000rpm range from memory, so it ramps hard to something like 18psi then climbs more progressively to 23psi nearer 5000rpm.   It makes the torque (and power) ramp more "natural" and less hard on parts and traction, it doesn't feel artificially held back.
