I'm only guessing but surely that run was done with an engine dynomometre . Its easy with a well set up one to create the sorts of engine loads that are impossible to sustain in the real world . High figures would not be hard to get with that engine at a constant rpm/load ie no acceleration losses .

Just on HKS's T51R series turbos , don't forget their GT42 turbines use a smaller trim than Garrets same family turbos (GT4294R/GT4202R) ie 76T vs 84T though the housings are very different . Other turbos such as Garretts GT4088R and the more recent GT4094R are getting up with the T51RKAI anyway . Ask Full Race Geoff what he gets out of GT4088R's .

Cheers .

thanks Disco, one of the other thoughts i had was maybe they plotted Hp/ps instead of kw by mistake.

150kw @ 3000rpm

450kw @ 4000rpm

660kw @ 6500rpm

That looks pretty impressive to me. What do you guys think? Could this be off an engine dyno not a chassis dyno?

Anyone have much experience with the Kai? They seem fairly popular in the Uk.

Merry Christmas

These are ENGINE FIGURES, not rear wheel figures. Plus they would not be running pump 98 with 2bar boost.

And it certainly wouldnt outperform a T04Z in "every way" as the the 0.86 rear t04z would be a more usable street turbo than the 1.00 rear t51.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Something I meant to say when we were chatting the other night about having an open trailer floor being great to work on a car, but you've never used the feature... It's a great place to park a car after doing suspension component changes, and do the tightening of all the bushes with the car sitting at full ride height. Especially when you don't have a 4 post hoist!

      That is way more science than even I would use. I just eyeball it, not even accounting for the non-verticality of the tape measure when held on the lip and the centre at the same time. +/- 2mm is good enough for the girls I go out with.

      So, before putting them in I need to understand the stock ride height. This is how I measured it: First, check the diameter of the wheel's centre cap, it was 52mm. Then put a piece of masking tape approximately across the centre and measure 27mm (half) from at least 3 sides to get a reasonable idea of the centre of the wheel cap. Mark that with a horizontal line as one measuring point. Then, directly above the wheel on the guard, put another piece of masking tape in approximately the centre. Use a string line to find out the point on the guard above the centre of the wheel cap and mark that. Then it is simple, just a tape measure to check the distance from centre of the wheel to the centre of the guard. Final results where  LF: 381mm RF: 379mm LR: 401mm RR: 400mm Pretty even considering they are 120,000klm old factory springs, lets call that 380 front and 400 rear.

      So....knowing that I have a problem with power steering temps on track and another Wakefield day booked in next Friday, I've done the obvious thing They are very reasonably priced at $1650, considering they are a big monotube shock, double height adjustable (don't have to change pre-load to change ride height), one way adjustable damping and standard sized and customisable springs if you want something other than what comes with them. They come with 9kg/mm front and 4.5kg/mm front and I went with that as a starting point because I'll add adjustable sway bars too https://justjap.com/products/bc-racing-coilover-kit-ds-ds-infiniti-q50-v37-14-current#description Unfortunately they didn't come with rear strut tops so I've re-used the factory ones which was a bit of a pain. Also, the adjuster for the rear shock will be an absolute nightmare to get at, and while there are extensions in the kit I can't see any way you can actually attach or use them

      One Headlight isn't working - Driver Side Fuse Keeps blowing

      By Duncan · Posted

      I also had 2 bulbs blow at once, years ago in the stagea. made for a fun drive home. The issue was the voltage regulator had failed in the alternator and it was giving 15+ volts. Really, I was lucky all that was fried were the headlight bulbs. So, I'd suggest you check the voltage across your battery terminals with the car running and warmed up. Yes, you will need a multimeter to do so, sorry.
