i spent nearly $2300 on it so far....still plenty to come....

im not bitchin guys....just happy with the result...

Wow thats not bad Brendan for that much! I'm sure most of us have spend 6000+ to get only little gain out of the engine..

Abo Bob,

Sorry to post this here but my internet explorer won't let me PM you.

My engine came out of a dressed half cut which still had factory computer, AMF's, air box, intercooler, dump pipes, front pipes, cam gears and the factory filter and when i fitted this engine and got the PFC fitted with z32 amfs and tuned and it made 248 awkws on CRDs dyno at 18 psi 2 1/2 years ago sence then all i've done is fit HKS EVC, twin plate, Metal cat and apex'i power intake kit.

So naturaly i have no reason to believe the turbos had been changed, at the time of fitting the engine i fitted ces dump pipes and equal length front pipes and while doing this i checked the housing size of the exhaurst housing which is where i got the .48 from.

Every day driving i have it on 15 psi and drags on 19 psi same as the dyno, track on 15 psi. I've spent the last few years developing the car to get as much as i possibley can out of the stock turbos before i put something bigger in when i rebuild the first engine which spun No 6 big end.

As below the car ran 11.36 @ 125 mph on 19 psi.

Please don't get me wrong im not trying to be smart im just trying to prove a point, by all means if some one can tell me how to tell if they are not other then the stocks just can't do that then im all ears.

I'm pretty sure getting 350rwkW to the ground is pretty much impossible. You'll feel more G's in a 300awkW GTR. :)

You'll also beat more ppl from a standing start too.

Getting the power to the ground is not that hard to be honest. A well sorted wheel/tyre/suspension setup lets us put down 410rwkw in 3rd gear and upwards. 1st and 2nd is of course a total and utter waste of time, but its loads of fun in 3rd gear :D :D

Looked like a massive day for UAS and SAU which i would expect nothing else. Great to see so many cars but a huge shame our car hasnt been sorted as it would have been great to get it on the rollers :) maybe next year!!!

well i was completely pleased with my result....didnt think i would take the 33 stock turbo category with so small mods. didnt hang around so i missed the prizes...

mods to date

Split dump, 3" system, hi flow cat

Just jap fmic

greddy profec B at 12psi(drops to 10psi)

Made 202.6rwkw.

Damn it! :D thought i might have had a chance this time, LOL

Thats great power, as abo bob said, prob chipped! i have a fair bit more done than listed above including power fc which was only tuned last week on 11psi and i got 205KW, only got 195KW on sat.

Pop ups thing didn't work still won't let me PM it just shuts down internet explorer, i can't ADDREPLY either only FASTREPLY.

Like i said not trying to be smart or accuse anyone of anything, i think i've had an honest shot at it with what i can only asume are the stock turbos and i thought i was doing good with then not breaking, i thought they were still going because im fairly carefull with how i use them and only turning them up for short periods soes not to over heat them which is what i thought was what makes them fail.

Just can't understand why some one in japan would spend the money on high flowing or converting them to steel and not fitting an exhaurst, filters, computer or boost controler.

As i said before when they were apart i looked to see if they had .64 rear housings and when i saw they were .48 i just thought stockers and didn't look further.

Still i have to think they are stock, i certainly have not touched them other then put dumps on and will be rather disapointed if in fact they do turn out to be something else as i am rather proud of my efferts so far bring it from 13 flat with only cat back to what it does now. :D

Im trying to get my head around the 11.3 @ 126 mph on stock turbos part.

I agree, Nick.

I do recall years ago at the old Eastern Creek drags there was a guy who had a burgundy (Aus-spec?) GTR who ran 11.4's. He claimed that they were with stock turbos. I didn't believe him. Up until now, I don't think anyone else has claimed anything close to that on stockers. I would suggest that they would probably be highflowed turbos as standard GTR turbos just do not make 290rwkw.

i fail to see how 290rwkw would or could run 125mph.... we ran 124 with 340rwkw and N1's. Not saying it hasnt happened on paper, just think something isnt really right there.....

I think it comes down to different dyno readings. TO4GTR made 295rwkw on the same dyno that day and he has run an 11.3@122.

yeah i know i couldn't believe the time either i thought it had to be a mistake but i have 1, 11.49 @ 119 mph slip, 1, 11.36 @ 125 mph slip, and 1, 11.38 @ 125 mph slip which was done on the 16th of this month last wednesday night and the dyno run of 290rwkw which was done on the 19th of this month at the sau dyno day.

sorry no nos and only shell v-power

Dude, can I just say here that you are taking this in the nicest possible way and that is quite refreshing.

Hey mate 290rwkws thats nice, i made 252 on 11psi so if the turbos hold together car see why they wouldnt make 290rwkws. Anyway looks like i missed a good day

yes. power isnt really that importand. infacgt its refreshing seeing that and running the numbers :)

    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
    • See if you can thermal epoxy a heatsink or two onto it?
    • The other problem was one of those "oh shit we are going to die moments". Basically the high spec Q50s have a full electric steering rack, and the povo ones had a regular hydraulic rack with an electric pump.  So couple of laps into session 5 as I came into turn 2 (big run off now, happily), the dash turned into a christmas tree and the steering became super heavy and I went well off. I assumed it was a tyre failure so limped to the pits, but everything was OK. But....the master warning light was still on so I checked the DTCs and saw – C13E6 “Heat Protection”. Yes, that bloody steering rack computer sitting where the oil cooler should be has its own sensors and error logic, and decided I was using the steering wheel too much. I really appreciated the helpful information in the manual (my bold) POSSIBLE CAUSE • Continuing the overloading steering (Sports driving in the circuit etc,) “DATA MONITOR” >> “C/M TEMPERATURE”. The rise of steering force motor internal temperature caused the protection function to operate. This is not a system malfunction. INSPECTION END So, basically the electric motor in the steering rack got to 150c, and it decided to shut down without warning for my safety. Didn't feel safe. Short term I'll see if I can duct some air to that motor (the engine bay is sealed pretty tight). Long term, depending on how often this happens, I'll look into swapping the povo spec electric/hydraulic rack in. While the rack should be fine the power supply to the pump will be a pain and might be best to deal with it when I add a PDM.
    • And finally, 2 problems I really need to sort.  Firstly as Matt said the auto trans is not happy as it gets hot - I couldn't log the temps but the gauge showed 90o. On the first day I took it out back in Feb, because the coolant was getting hot I never got to any auto trans issues; but on this day by late session 3 and then really clearly in 4 and 5 as it got hotter it just would not shift up. You can hear the issue really clearly at 12:55 and 16:20 on the vid. So the good news is, literally this week Ecutek finally released tuning for the jatco 7 speed. I'll have a chat to Racebox and see what they can do electrically to keep it cooler and to get the gears, if anything. That will likely take some R&D and can only really happen on track as it never gets even warm with road use. I've also picked up some eye wateringly expensive Redline D6 ATF to try, it had the highest viscosity I could find at 100o so we will see if that helps (just waiting for some oil pan gaskets so I can change it properly). If neither of those work I need to remove the coolant/trans interwarmer and the radiator cooler and go to an external cooler....somewhere.....(goodbye washer reservoir?), and if that fails give up on this mad idea and wait for Nissan to release the manual 400R
