Time for another tuning results thread.

I approached Jim at CRD to tune my car following recent work and I an extremely happy with his efforts

The results shown below are based on a built RB26 with all the fruit, Tomei 260 degree Poncams and HKS GT-SS turbos

I will let the pictures below tell the story

The cars response is very good, its very agile around town and the exhaust note is simply awesome.

I can only say I am very pleased with the results

Good results nick.

Post up the torque curve why dont ya :D

From the boost curve, you're making 21.5-22 psi @ 4400 rpm ? Thats pretty good.

It will be interesting to see what you end up pulling at wsid this week. Hope it bloody well doesnt rain. If it does, I will join you next week and we can race together :D

I take it this is awkw?

Very nice result.

Intersting to see your boost hit 21 and drop back down to 20 - what boost controller are you using? Is it set to 20 and just spikes to 21?

What rpm are you hitting 1bar boost (just want to compare to williamsf1 and tommy)...

Will be interesting to see how you go at the drag strip... are you going to take this on the real (circuit) track? :D

can't wait till i get my car back in a couple of weeks or so. I'm leaving stock cams in for now, see how they cope.

Ferni, yep thats awkw

The car made 320awkw but was brought back down a tad for the final run - my request was reliability and safety rather than absolute peak power

CRD believes that my cat is causing some problems and should be replaced with a better flowing unit, which could see a gain of another 10-15 awkw

I have been itching to take the GTR on a track for a long long time now, so I will fit my oil cooler and get out there!

Boost controller is the HKS EVC 5

Nick

Nice work. Glad Jim sorted it all out for you. Too bad I didnt stick around at Croydon to see the final run but after eating maccas I was feeling like shit (big suprise!).

I have doubts about my own cat after the weekend and will be sourcing one of those phat Catco ones which look like Magic cats from Batmbl i think.

    • Very nice - I also have a 92 GTST and hardly see any others around these days
    • When I need something else to edit, I use Movavi. A friend who does video editing on a daily basis recommended me) it's an easy video cutter to use for beginners
    • I need to edit some videos for work but I'm not good at all this. Which video editor can you recommend?
    • I think you're really missing the point. The spec is just the minimum spec that the fuel has to meet. The additive packages can, and do, go above that minimum if the fuel brand feels they need/want to. And so you get BP Ultimate or Shell Ultra (or whatever they call it) making promises to clean your engine better than the standard stuff....simply because they do actually put better additive packages in there. They do not waste special sauce on the plebian fuel if they can avoid it. I didn't say "energy density". I just said "density". That's right, the specific gravity (if you want to use a really shit old imperial description for mass per unit volume). The density being higher indicates a number of things, from reduces oxygen content, to increased numbers of double bonds or cyclic components. That then just happens to flow on to the calorific value on a volume basis being correspondingly higher. The calorific value on a mass basis barely changes, because almost all hydrocarbon materials have a very similar CV per kg. But whatever - the end result is that you do get a bit more energy per litre, which helps to offset some of the sting of the massive price bump over 91. I can go you one better than "I used to work at a fuel station". I had uni lecturers who worked at the Pt Stanvac refinery (at the time they were lecturing, as industry specialist lecturers) who were quite candid about the business. And granted, that was 30+ years ago, and you might note that I have stated above that I think the industry has since collected together near the bottom (quite like ISPs, when you think about it). Oh, did I mention that I am quite literally a combustion engineer? I'm designing (well, actually, trying to avoid designing and trying to make the junior engineer do it) a heavy fuel oil firing system for a cement plant in fricking Iraq, this week. Last week it was natural gas fired this-that. The week before it was LPG fired anode furnaces for a copper smelter (well, the burners for them, not the actual furnaces, which are just big dumb steel). I'm kinda all over fuels.
    • Well my freshly rebuilt RB25DET Neo went bang 1000kms in, completely fried big end bearing in cylinder 1 so bad my engine seized. No knocking or oil pressure issue prior to this happening, all happened within less than a second. Had Nitto oil pump, 8L baffled sump, head drain, oil restrictors, the lot put in to prevent me spinning a bearing like i did to need the rebuild. Mechanic that looked after the works has no idea what caused it. Reckoned it may have been bearing clearance wrong in cylinder 1 we have no idea. Machinist who did the work reckoned it was something on the mechanic. Anyway thats between them, i had no part in it, just paid the money Curiosity question, does the oil system on RB’s go sump > oil pump > filter > around engine? If so, if you had a leak on an oil filter relocation plate, say sump > oil pump > filter > LEAK > around engine would this cause a low oil pressure reading if the sensors was before the filter?   TIA
