the head gasket in that engine is thick..lowering compression which increases lag..lets you run more boost but

heard that. just didnt know which engine you were referring to, the one I am looking at or your mates.

compression is 8.5 to one according to owner. wont be hard to change it tho.

Yeah sorry I didnt quote lol

My mates has a stock head gasket I think...made 290 at 18psi

what dynos do you kids use, Matts car made 388 or 39Xish on the same psi on the old subzero dyno.

Iono

How come power is always going up but MPH at the track isnt??;)

Noel here is a graph from a friend who has a GT30R with the little housing (.64 or .63??) standatd engine, standard cams ect

I never took R32 to the track, so i cant comment :rofl:

My MPH was fine on the m1 ;)

we did 10.8 @ 128mph in the s13 at willowbank however, all pretty inkeeping with the dyno number

You. Jamie showed me his subzero dyno sheet for around that power.

My point being, the other car in here with the 3037 is on a low reading dyno.

that's weird, the millenium dyno (1bar) pulled 38X...different dynos vary so much!! This was after they changed timing around though...it was apparently way off.

I wasnt talking about you sorry mate!

It was just a general comment

All of a sudden Stock turbo GTSTs can make well over 200RWKW Eg a work colleague of mine who apprently makes 220 on a stock new motor with 11psi and an intercooler..thats not even with a upgraded computer

Maybe im thinking of that sheet then

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
