hey as a few people may no i turboed my na in january, its been in and out of the tunners just fiddling with it,

Anyways the car has been running really well but for a little while it was running really rich so today i though i would check and re-gap my plugs and do a compression test,

1= 140 2=130 3=140 4=140 5=150 6=160, i though that was pretty normal no probs there the second cylender the spark plug gay was a little out i dont know if that could have done anything to make the comp a little lower but ey its not to bad anyways

i think the 160 was rounded up a little my mate had the gauge, ok well stupid me i was reading around 2 things i may have done wrong, the car wasnt at operating tempreture so i dont know if that changed the restults but its ment to be at opperating tempreture, and when we were doing it we had one of the push in gauges insted of a turn on one and a little bit of air may have escaped we werent being very accurate just wanted to see if anything seemed way out

ok i take that back.. they arent all over the place..

they are decent... although i suspect that they've been rounded off to the nearest 10.

20-25 apart would make me personally unhappy. i'd be aiming for +/- 10.

here's an idea of other peoples:

yeh i think there was a bit of rounding i didnt see the gauge, cars runnings great thou so cant complaine and hey if i blow the rings gives me a reason to rebuild lol, im picking up a daily driver next week so i can afford to have it off the road if something goes wrong

Did you change injectors?,I have put a stock turbo on my na also & it runs pretty good as well.All I did was bolt on the standard turbo & intercooler & didn't change the computer or injectors & I think the injector might be to small so I would like to get some new ones before I spend money on a tune/remap etc

Does anyone know what size the stock na injectors are.

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • 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...
