I GOT RESULTS BACK - I am suprised with the results and Matt done a great job....

234.9RWKW@11/12psi.( I dont know why it ran the higher psi as it has an rb20 acuator on it.

Only issue I had was with the spark plugs, it was blowing out the spark at this boost level, there copper and were gapped to 1.1 now Matt regapped them to 0.65.

He didnt mention anything about fuel, afm or anything and they were working quite well at this boost level..

I am curious to see what it will do when i finish what I want to do with it, just a few more minor mods.

AFR's were good to between 11.8 t 12.0.

Well done

i like more auto's having a crack.

good effort on safc etc but that turbo is certainly a pig.

The Auto Hack Paul was talking about isnt realy a hack or anything technical.

simply un plug the brown connector down behind the drivers side head light and it will lock the trans in 3rd gear.

once your finished on the dyno plug it back in and away you go. 1st , 2nd , 3rd..

i notice your dyno was done in drive so it might explain the massive loss in midrange, as he would have to go very easy on the throttle so it dosent kick back to second. thats of course assuming he dosent know about the brown plug.

attached is my old turbo and my current turbo

both running rb25det auto

if you compare midrange power at say 100kmph your not even close.

but both runs on my car are with a PFC but i still think your turbo may be dragging its feet a little..

cheers

Dangerman,

Yeh he was taking it easy until he would reach a certain klm so it would not kick back, it was constantly kicking back on the dyno...

THe turbo is good for what it is though..i know its no gt30 but I wouldnt call it a pig...on the street im pretty sure im gettn 11/12psi by 3000rpm..

it is annoying though as first gear is wheel spin time.....

I would like to get it run again to see its proper power band...i say ill do it at the SAU dyno day, take that brown plug out..

Midrange does suffer a little on the dyno graph but I dont think its reflects this when drivin in real life conditions on the road..

I would get a PFC if I had the money, but as you can see per the mods I havnt spent much at all..a budget build you could say..

Im still wrapped with the power...

Cheers

Does any1 rekon the boost 98 from united helped me along at all...

Im quite interested in fuels and their advantages and thats the reason why I choose the boost98 as it has sumting like 5% ethanol in it...Ive read quite a few articles claiming its miracles, the ethonal that is and how it has to be tuned to it...

Before I got it tuned i used bp 98 and boost 98..untuned the bp98 felt way better, the ethonal decreased power.

I wanted to use shell v-power racing but I cant even find it in sydney yet...

Let me know your thoughts...im still wondering why the power was so high..the dyno is a pretty average reading dyno(DD) aswell.

Cheers

Looks like a BOOSTD style Hiflow, low boost and cliff like power curve. VG30 rear housing and a highflow front wheel on the stock RB25 turbo.

REV210, what are the specs or how do these BOOSTD turbos rate? all I know is that the previous owner said it is rated at 450hp?

Also with the power curve I dont think it represnts it well as the tuner had to bring it on slowly to avoid it kicking back a gear..I will do the mod where it locks in 3rd gear on the SAU dyno day and then see how it goes...

Also you know the goods on fuels, what is your view on BOOST98 from united petrol..did the ethanol help?

Cheers

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
