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

How come power is always going up but MPH at the track isnt?? :rofl:

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

    • OK, Step 3, if you need to remove the valve body, either to replace it, the TCM, or to do a more complete drain.  First, you need to disconnect the TCM input wires, they are about half way up the transmission on the drivers side. One plug and the wires are out of the way, but there is also a spring clip that stops the socket from sliding back into the transmission. On my car the spring clip was easy to get, but the socket was really stuck in the o-ring of the transmission housing and took some.....persuasion. You can see both the plug to remove (first) and the spring clip (second) in this pic Incidentally, right next to the plug, you can see where the casting has allowance for a dispstick/filler which Nissan decided not to provide. there is a cap held on with a 6mm head bolt that you can remove to overfill it (AMS recommend a 1.5l overfill). Final step before the big mess, remove the speed sensor that is clipped to the valve body at the rear of the box.  Then removal of the Valve Body. For this the USDM Q50 workshop manual has a critical diagram: There are a billion bolts visible. Almost all of them do not need to be removed, just the 14 shown on the diagram. Even so, I both removed one extra, and didn't check which length bolt came from which location (more on that later....). Again it is worth undoing the 4 corners first, but leaving them a couple of turns in to hold the unit up....gravity is not your friend here and trans oil will be going everywhere. Once the corners are loose but still in remove all the other 10 bolts, then hold the valve body up with 1 hand while removing the final 4. Then, everything just comes free easily, or like in my case you start swearing because that plug is stuck in the casing. Done, the valve body and TCM are out
    • OK, so if you are either going for the bigger fluid change or are changing the valve body which includes the Transmission Control Module (TCM), first you should have both a new gasket 31397-1XJ0A and a torque wrench that can work down to 8Nm (very low, probably a 1/4 drive one). You can probably get by without either, but I really didn't want to pull it all apart together due to a leak. First, you now need that big oil pan. The transmission pan is 450 long x 350 wide, and it will probably leak on all sides, so get ready for a mess. There are 24x 6mm headed bolts holding the pan on. I undid the 2 rear corners, then screwed those bolts back in a couple of turns to let the pan go low at that end, then removed all the middle bolts on each side. Then, undo the front corner bolts slowly while holding the pan up, and 80% of the fluid will head out the rear. From there, remove the remaining bolts and the pan is off. You can see it is still dripping oil absolutely everywhere...it dripped all night.... I got another couple of litres when I removed the pan, and then another few when I removed the valve body - all up another 4l on top of the 3 already dropped in step 1.
    • Yeh I think i'll message an old contact i had for ages that manages his own tyre shop now.. n tell him what i want n work with him before ordering..  Got this 17x9 +30 Driftteks on 245/45/17 PSR Drag Radials on the rear.. They fit well - for your reference in future - Rear guards  have been lipped in & minimal to non flaring of the rear Gaurds.    
    • If only it were that easy! I also needed to remove seats, shocks, brake calipers, send my car through a fence, and use measuring and ended up guessing because I didn't remove seats, shocks and brake calipers. It can be hard sometimes Can be a little more complex than 'just measure' if you want to truly measure the entire wheel through all of it's suspension travel. But if you aren't going for every last mm then yeah, you can check the space you currently have and guesstimate.
    • If you own a car, and it has wheels on it, and you know the offset of those wheels, and you have a measuring device, you have everything you need to work out if other wheels will fit.
