Martin would it be possible to have an overlap copy of the V8's 400+rwkw power torque curve and maybe your Soarer, a few r33's with different power levels and a couple of R32's thrown in their?

or

If I can have a copy of the above runs I will overlap them and make a post here ?!?!

Chris what mods?

Joel, HKS 2510 turbo @ 1 bar, FMIC, 3" exhaust, Bosch pump and re-mapped computer

Check out this dyno chart. This is from the weekend, a good comparison between Grepin and Freebaggins RB25 and my RB20. Just shows how much 1/2 litre makes a differance in the midrange

note - I have blurred out our rego numbers just in case there are theiving bastards browsing the forums for quick cars, but have marked which one is what

Just looking at the AF's Chris it looks like yours was running quite a bit leaner in the mid hence the power loss possibly?

I remember when mine was tuned similiar with similiar AF's it lost heaps in the mid range.

I found that running the mid a little richer (just under 12) made best power.

The PowerFC looks like it has a very good power curve and also AF' Ratios. hrmmm

Yeah, not to sure Joel. I just put it down to being 2L v 2.5L with variable inlet timing. If I compare the dyno chart from when it had the stock turbo on, the mid-range is virtually identical.

Going to use a electronic boost controller instead of the bleed valve to try and fill the mid-range in a bit.

Perhaps Martin could comment on this, as he tuned it and would have a greater understanding of this then I would?

I found with the EBC it actually came on to boost a little slower but was more controlled compared to the bleed.

I.e the Bleed felt quicker because it would spike up really quickly then boost would slowly drop off, the top end would flatten out where as with the ebc it still comes on hard but it is only hitting say 1 bar instead of 1.1 bar however the top end is better due to not loosing boost.

Might be different with the 2510 unless that drops boost up top also with a bleed?

Nah, doesn't drop off at the top end. I just want to see if it will get ti th 1bar quicker than it does currently

I'd like to get a EBC anyway, so I don't have to fiddle around under the bonnet if I want to run less boost. Wil be good to see what differance it makes on my car

OK, it's on, The "How Crap!" Challenge:

Gotta beat Chris32's RB20 power level.

Gotta beat MattR's RB25 powered power level (no it doesn't help mate).

Gotta beat Nightcrawlers 400m elapse time.

Gotta beat Martin's 1Jz power level.

....man-o-man. Give me some time & $$.

Freebaggin.

P.S. Also gotta keep grepin at bay!

    • This looks great! Awesome to have the 5 speed with an LSD in this. The Recaro's look like SR2's or SR3's. It's a shame they've been retrimmed as they would have looked sweet in their original colours. I think I'd want my agent to be a little more up front and informative too. I've never imported but I reckon it would make me a little nervous, so the more info the better.
    • Thanks for doing that Duncan! Makes you a good person in my books. We don't get kangaroos or wombats here. But we have bats and it's similar. AFAIK it's often the mums with a baby attached that get hit because they drop lower when starting from a tree. If you hit an animal, check on it. https://www.ifaw.org/au/resources/wildlife-rescue-app An app to get the closest wildlife rescue contact.
    • My dream is also to have a proper hoist, but I don't think it will ever happen. My quickjack is probably as close as I'll ever get, it really is very good though. 
    • Yeah we keep on in the dailies, it is pretty poor how many animals get hit and the driver leaves without checking....have saved a couple of little ones over the years. Bit of a gruesome job though, pouches generally need to be cut open because they are so tight and often the joey doesn't realise mum is gone so they are still locked onto the teat. I checked the modules in front of the DS wheel where an oil cooler should go.... There is the radar unit - that can go for race use) One of the 2 HX water pumps, the silver cylinder. That needs to be kept but might be able to be relocated But the bad news, the big computer mounted vertically in front of the wheel (blocking any potential air exit) is the electric steering computer. That is required until/unless i do a hydraulic steering conversion, and in CAD based modern car design it is not like I can just pop a big unit like that somewhere else (plus the loom would be too short anywhere else too). So, the passenger side is OK to clear out (just use a smaller washer reservoir, potentially elsewhere), but the DS no beuno
    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
