Just quietly at least XGTRX knows what he wanted in his car, and didn't start a 100+ page topic that could have been resolved very quickly.

But that's none of my business.....

Just love smugness in a man Anthony :wub:

I am glad XGTRX knew what he was doing, I didn't , but I hung in there and the results I wanted speak for themselves :wub: you blokes do not have to like it , I do and thats all that matters, lol

Just quietly, you must have something wrong in your head to read 100 pages of drivel that you obviously did not like, I start reading a thread and if I do not like it , I STOP READING IT, DUH!

I find idiocy amusing... And that thread...

Seriously though you are effectively laughing at XGTRX why not just accept what he likes, and the fact you don't like it, and leave it at that? You are not in much of a position to comment on anything, hence my previous statement.

In fact isn't it the whole point being a car enthusiast? you do what you want for YOU and no one else. Many people probably think my car doesn't have enough power, i tell them it's a good thing it isn't their car. Anyone that knows me well enough knows i say "GTR's are supposed to have twins, if i didn't want twins, i'd buy a gts-t" yet the gains for singles are well known, hell my tuner even keeps telling me to go a single like a 6262 with E85, he laughs and thinks it's a waste of a good engine. Point is: everyone has a different opinion.

You enjoy your car, i'm not taking anything away, i'm sure it has been setup perfectly for what you want. But for gods sake have some respect for other people. Just because he likes a different setup (that you hated) doesn't make it horrible and laughable. Honestly how old are you mate? I would have thought by now you would have learned a bit of humility.

Shit I have to ask or I will die, how would you have fixed it quicker ?

I am sure it would have to be MUCH better than mine, it was hideous to drive and try it with Quad clutch in peak traffic for 1 1/2 hours and you will understand why I hated the heap of shit :bomb_ie:

I am putting up my old Dyno off the 2.6 so some of these blokes know what I call laggy, so they will know what I mean and why I tried so hard to get the car I wanted to drive.

Now, I showed you mine, show me yours!

Nothing to show. my -5 s setup was like any other -5 350kw dyno graph, nothing special, nothing different. TBH I have a real issue with dyno graphs anyway as dynos are basically tuning tools and the graphs only give info on wot in one gear, which really has no indication on how they perform in real world day to day driving. For what's it worth I pulled 123 mph with a f**ked transfer case and a slipping clutch and a 60ft of 2.8s, the power is there or there abouts.

The best dyno I know of is sitting my arse in the seat and experiencing the car not looking at some wot graph.

Where is xGTRx's dyno result?

Post it up and show us what we are missing.

When I get the TO4Z tuned I will put it up for shits and giggles.

Hopefully I have nothing till 4000 and then it goes mental. Thats whats important to me regardless of the peak power figure.

And I also need to block off the BOV as it doesn't dose enough at the moment.

:D

I never thought I would say this, but, you are an idiot. XGTRX seems like a nice bloke to me and how his car runs is his business. He has a bit of fun and a few digs about response in his posts and I/we dig back about lag, fun , not serious, joking , playing around ! Of course we have our preferences , duh ?

I care not about anyone elses car or how it runs , what KWs it is, laggy , not laggy , blue or green, well maybe I like some other colours better than mine. I do not give a crap if it is 20kw or 1000kw and I do not get jealous of other blokes cars. I ogle them because they look great and love reading some of the builds on SAU, so take a chill pill or maybe you need to up your medication??

Not good enough , I want to see how it runs now and experience the mental joy of lagging around Melbourne in peak hour, lol

now I am jealous of that :yes:

This is the way to get off topic, not the other drivel , haha

    • Got the motor out and torn down. I'll be dropping off the block Monday. Luckily the scoring on Cyl6 is much less pronounced then the pictures made it out to seem. It can barely be felt. If you pass your finger over it 10x you'll barely notice it. Hopefully by some chance it will only require a honing. I'm not in the mood to buy one size larger pistons or another block. Oddly enough my 6th cylinder with the scoring has extremely clean intake valves compared to my other 5 cylinders. I'm worried the scoring was caused by too much fuel or Water/Methanol washing the cylinder. I'll review some old logs to confirm.  This was also the first time I pull an engine with the transmission still attached. It went much better then expected. I was worried my CD009 wouldn't make it easy due to its sheer size but it was much easier this way. 
    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
