mine took months to get here...thats why they were not included in the rebuild

got the car back today will post dyno chart tomorrow... tuner didn't do a before and after as I had requested, so you will have to compare with one of my old dyno charts... sorry about that to anyone who was interested

aaaanyway the seat of the pants review goes like this: I instantly noticed the improved response, not just on boost but pretty much everywhere in the rev range... didn't really gain anything in the peak power department as I still have stock cooler so the timing is fairly conservative... it also definately revs quicker (almost caught me out a couple of times as I had to scramble for the next gear:) and the top end feels less restricted... I was impressed with how quiet they are as well, you cannot tell that it has aftermarket cams at idle...

overall I am pretty impressed, it just feels as though it wants to rev!

hey Bass here are some dyno graphs for you to have a squizz at...

the first one is before the rebuild, so only difference is its pre pistons and cams... same boost/tune etc... it also is in shootout mode and done by the looks of it in 4th gear

the second one is with cams and pistons... 3rd gear... and NOT in shootout mode... the tuner has also retarded the timing a bit as the stock cooler is...well...ghey

as you can see the second graph goes pretty straight all the way to redline, where as the 1st graph has a big dip and tapers off at the top end...

the cams don't totally do away with the dip but I think this will go away when I bin the stock ecu / SAFC combo

:rofl:

    • I like it when the counter chick leads you out the back into the racks and says "have a grub around in here and see if you can find what you need. I'll be back in a few minutes. Just left me in front of a massive motorised shelving system and 2-3 million fasteners, so I could find a peculiar SS shoulder bolt with cap head. Gotta love country towns.
    • I used this https://osgiken.com.au/product/os-giken-os-250r-lsd-gear-oil-80w250-1-litre/   shut my nismo 1.5 pro up by heaps…. Not silent though. Gives the car character and personality. It ain’t a carolla. If you want silent, put a quaife in it.
    • It's about the same time for me from Bunnings, or the Fasteners. My big push away from takeaway food, and gluten in general keeps me away from the Bunnings Snags too! Weather up here, I've been out for two walks today in the beautiful sunshine. Had a few little drizzles, and some wind, that honestly, a tin of beans and I could compete on how harsh she blows Thankfully, being this bit inland, we're not getting anything much really. Will probably pick up a bit more when/if Cyclone Alfie decides to come ashore. A few areas in the GC though, and south into NSW are really getting smashed though! Right now, I'm just annoyed Alfie hasn't hit, as I'm not allowed to crack into the BBQ foods like the bacon and eggs until the Cyclone hits "In case we lose power"...
    • I love fastener joints, the price difference between them and joints like Bunnings or Super Cheap is amazing, and they either have exactly what you want, or they can get it to quick They have even given me some for free when I only needed a couple of specific size In saying this, I have paid premium for fasteners from Bunnings if they have the sizes I need, but only for convenience really, as my local is only 10 minutes away, the Sushi joint near them is also a consideration  How's the weather Matt? Stay safe mate
    • Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
