cams yes i have these - did not make a 'big' difference in peak power but more so in torque (100Nm)

pods yes i have these - would not make a 'big' difference in power though

what i am getting at is that the cams & pods cannot make the additional 120rwkw+ power difference

yeah, I don't think you can really compare the figures from two different dynos with any great level of accuracy. only really usefull to compare your own graphs, on the same dyno to get an idea of how you're going.

Paul, nice result with the SS mate. interesting that your old RS setup with no cams and 2.6l engine only made full boost at nearly 7000rpm. must make the new set-up seem a lot more fun to drive :P

What a load of crap, you don't gain 170rwhp going from awd to rwd

301rwkw by UAS???

CRD achieved 362awkw with my car - same turbo's & in fact similar setup.

 

as a comparison, this equates to 422rwkw!!!

...hmmm

 

maybe i have a "freak" engine (yeah right)

 

 

Marko.

Looks like he's saying rwkw to me? no mention of gearbox

yes I have to agree with Buster, would be a pretty poor driveline to be loosing 60kw just in switching from AWD to RWD. from my limited experience with my GTR and from observing others on the dyno i'd say the difference in a GTR between AWD and RWD on the same dyno is about 20-35kws.

Hi guys,

BU5TER:

its not 'a load of crap' that you lose up to 70kw from awd to rwd when a car is producing over 350awkw!

as Oz GTR02V added - with 300awkw you will lose 50kw from awd to rwd

formula for this:

the more power you make the more you will lose in the driveline, it is relative.

this is a fact guys!!!

i tend to take side with jim @ crd on this.

Marko.

whatever you believe is your choice...

what i write is from a professional that has been tuning gtrs for 15 yrs & is involved with international & national events, perhaps you should speak to crd if you have any further q's

i listen to experts & then relay feedback, how you choose to take this is entirely up to you...

marko.

I was in melb about 5 years ago and watched an R32 on a tafe dyno do 175kw @all 4 and then RWD did 210kw. CRD has done this before and I accept his statement as he has no reason or gain from bullshitting about it. The difference between his dyno is about 50kw between RWD and 4WD. Its a free country so make your own opinion and leave it at that.

no need for this negativity...

its sad that some of these informational threads people like reading such as myself turn into sour lemons :boohoo:

I promise you there are no sour lemons here :rofl: I just hate these informational threads being filled with bullsh!t to make one person look better then another or to bag a workshop that is a forum sponsor :(

Mate no one was making anyone look better than anyone else...it was all interesting comparative feedback. Hence this is the aim of this forum to view, compare, obtain advice etc. Its great seeing different results. I also did not view any negative criticism towards a particular workshop. No one was taking offence to anyone and everyone respected and congratulated OzGTR02V's results.

In fact your the first person that has initiated any form of bulls%it saying that peoples comments were a load of crap!!! and that its cool if you want to be a puppet....now if thats not insulting well I dont know what would be??

I have also been to many tuners hence getting advice from an expert such as Jim is not being a puppet but merely being sensible by obtaining truthful advice and not advice from their ar$e.

Anyway lets get off the sour lemon topic and back onto the topic of congratulating Oz GTR...great results mate...awesome you must be proud. :(

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
