Do i get a cookie  :Pimp2:

:cookie:

tommyk I don't see why not:

the highest peak was 253kw but we settled on the 247 as it made more midrange than the 253 setting.

COOL

What mods do you have and was that run done in awd or rwd mode ?

You guys suck. You make me want to buy a pair of GT-SS's :D

as for mods mine is still stock turbos, stock cams, stock intercooler, stock dumps, stock front pipes. just 3 inch cat back system, apexi pods, cam gears, 14.5psi boost, and power FC. obviously have other unrelated stuff like oil cooler, twin plate clutch, OS gearset etc etc. the first graph showing 221kw was before the cam gear adjustment. in the process of adjusting the gears boost also rose by 2psi (without touching the controller) and the AFRs leaned off a bit (also without touching the PFC). so that may have influenced the gain a little too.

is that graph rwkw or awkw ?

Why do I ask ?

Ive got everything you have including 15psi boost, aftermarket front pipes, but i dont have the pods or gears

Sorry for the hijack kabab

sorry mate, it's in rwd. so outright power i would say it's pretty much the same between us (i don't know really) but the shape of the curve is what is most important to me at the moment, not the peak figure. :D

I noticed when mine was on the dyno it was in full 4wd mode so i guess thats why your figure is much higher then Tommyk's..

What would the difference be between awd and rwd power wise?

to be honest i really don't know. i have heard lots of stories. some people say on a 32 GTR the difference is negligible (something about the way they divert torque to the front wheels on a dyno), other say about 30kws difference. personally i think there must be some difference but how much i wouldn't want to guess.

Suffice to say that, as always, a dyno is not the best dick measuring tool as everyone has a different ruler.

    • What could be causing my clutch problem besides a bad master or slave then? Both those parts are new

    • My hold point for future mods is that I want a OEM detachable hard top first, but, finding one is a pain, MX5 Mania are looking for one for me, but, as hens teeth are more common, finding one in Australia is proving problematic  I can get a OEM one from overseas, hell, you can still get new ones in 'Merica, but, shipping is a absolute killer and I cannot justify the cost, or the risk of it being damaged during transport As for the aftermarket hardtops, whilst they do the job of being a hard top, and are fine for a track car, they don't seal well (read: leak like a sieve in the rain), and you need a plastic/poly rear window, plus they are a bolt in option only and not made to be easily removed I liked how the hard top on my NB could be fitted, and removed, by myself, in less than 5 minutes I know it sounds bad, but I'm waiting for someone to write off a car with one so I can swoop in on their pain, it will go to a good home though, so my guilt of this is tempered
    • I’ve got one on mine and it’s fine, 
    • No, you don't want to plug the vacuum line, as that will turn that side of the booster into an air spring and probably make it feel worse. I'm not saying that the GTR master itself doesn't need a booster. I haven't paid attention to the GTR one to know what size it is cf the non-GTR ones. But when you think about it - they have to do the same job, which is to move a little slave piston a few mm to do what it is supposed to do, and that final action is the same on all the cars. So, it is very unlikely that the GTR MC is any different than the others, because it has the same pedal stroke and the same output requirement. The booster just makes it feel easier. I'd suggest you probably have an actual hydraulic problem. It's totally common on these old shitboxes.
