Day Out With Kutsie, Take 2 (updated With Pics)


Recommended Posts

So it was time to get a new tune with kutsie.

Changes since the old setup, was a new cold air intake, a new ecu from Central 20, and a gizzmo EBC.

So I will put the scans up tomorrow.

First up Andrew ran the car with the setup as was, and running rich it pulled a good 180 rwKw or so. But as we began to take fuel out of the car with the SAFC II, pinging set in. So Andrew knocked back the timing and decreased the base fuel pressure, and the pinging went away. He proceeded to do so a few times and set up the boost controller for 4 different settings, and the cruise lambda settings as well.

SO what was the outcome? HERE WE GO, 192 rwKw @ 9.3 psi, 195 @ 10.2psi, 199 @ 11.9 psi AND 207 rwKw @ 12.3 psi. I have actually seen the EBC jump to 14.2 psi while driving and I don’t know what power that was, but in first gear I got nothing but smoke out the tires.

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEHHHHHHHHHHHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA 200 rwKw target achieved, thus stage one is complete.

Once again thanks must go out to Andrew and the team at Pro Automotive, I can't state enough how professional the guys there are. Many thanks.

So now onto stage two. New intake plenum in planning progress, new turbo, new injectors and a new ecu, not sure which, but will actually try what it will do with the current Central 20 ecu and a new turbo.

For a relatively stock car, with all the mods being done by myself, I am chuffed. Not only did I reach my target, but I due to the new ECU I picked up close to 60 rwKw through the whole rev range.

EDITED: It would pay if i read the dyno properly.

glad to see you got there eventually :laugh:

that's more power than mine had! bastard!

Well it'll still be a couple months before mine is turboed, but I'd like to see my figures within 15-20rwkw of that from the dirty old RB30

hell yeah, befor it was so slow through the mid range, and then bag, gear change. Allthough because it seams like there is less pull, because it is more linear, IT IS SOOOO much faster then before.

Thanks Toff, much appriciated. The car is great, and loving it.

Hay have you got a box soughted yet?

:no: he hasn't and is still looking for one ASAP :laugh:

You should of gone into Joe's on Tuesday they had the release of the 07 R1.

Not a bad bus by the looks of it but i've got my eye on something else :P

FIX THAT BIKE ALREADY WOULD YA :sorcerer:

YESSSS OH GREAT ONE< I WILL DO AS YOU DESIRE.............

Mate i was already out the door on Tusday, but my wifes sister was up form Sydney with her husband, and they decided to go for dinner, eaven though they knew i had other plans, hence my day was screwed.

Will you be in next tusday?

Hi Young GT-R, got to work early, like me?

    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
    • The filter only filters down to a specific size. Add to that, the filter is AFTER the pump. So it means everything starts breaking your pump even if its being filtered out.
    • Just like in being 14mm too small (296mm) makes it not fit, being 14mm too big (324mm) it also won't fit. You want to find the correct rotor.
    • @GTSBoy Ok so that was the shops problem...they showed R33 rotors on R34 page and i did not know 296 do not fit(and are for R33) Yes i bought "kit" with rotors and pads. Pads are ok(i have GTT calipers front and rear). They have some 324mm but no 310mm. So i dont know if they would fit. I have 17inch LMGT4s So another question. Can i fit those in the rear or they are just "too" big for that?
