Supporting mod selection such as cams, manifolds turbo, exhaust etc will be the key to putting the power where I want it. ( and that isnt where you have it) Time will tell if i am right or not.

Question tho;

Where do you want the power???

Where do you think my power is???

Strike! Knew i would get a bite Col. :P Wait till I get my tune. I want to work with the tuner on the power curve.

I do no not want a light switch. Even though the hp will be up there I still want to have it come on in a linear fashion albeit at a higher plane than I originally intended. Projected power is going to be in the 350/400 rwkw range so we will have plenty to play with with regards to where we put the torque curve. Its going to be very interesting indeed.

my rb25 made 490rwhp with HEAPS more to go, and full boost by 3800rpm... I reckon you'll be on the ball pending turbo

Turbo is definitely where its at along with cam selection Josh. I still havnt made a final decision on it yet. No hurry tho. I have to amass some more funds now. What are old gigilos worth these days. :P

Yeah, half the battle is in the boost controller Noel

I have have it like a light switch or I can have it gradual...

At the end of the day it does not make more or less power, it just makes it more streetable around town and more comfortable to drive...

Will be interesting to see who hits a 10 second first :P

I think they are somwhere around -$5 per hour

The slapped out whore's around here charge out @ $132 for the first hour, then a discounted rate for the next. I reckon we put you in a suit, and BAM. We have our selves a $100+ man :laughing-smiley-014:

You're assuming that I can last an hour Josh!. :laughing-smiley-014:

The battle to the 10 second quart is it, I say you'll need more flow :P i recon turbo choice change noel The GT 35R or T04Z bah meh im out catchya all tommmmmmmmoooorrow

I did a 10.8 on two HKS GT25/30's, flow my ass.. they are baby turbo's!

It's more about the overall package to be honest

A GT 30 got col to 131mph looking at some times here of other R33s tells me that if Col can get a 1.7 sec 60 footer he should be able to run a 10.8

    • They care about emissions, and cost the most. Save weight where possible, and make manufacturing easier. Less material also let's the engine transfer heat to water quicker, and bring the engine up to temp quicker, better for emissions and getting them past their warranty period.
    • I was under the impression the reason why OEMs are going with solutions like relatively thin "right-sized" cylinder walls with technologies like PTWA and open deck is because they care a lot about whatever marginal knock margin benefits they get from that vs the structural rigidity benefits of a closed deck block and thicker cylinder walls. I also see some weird stuff like plastic inserts in the water jacket around the cylinders to try and equalize cylinder wall temperatures. re: the PRP blocks and heads at the end of the day it's hard to know what is and isn't going to work there, just have to see what the initial buyers say about it.
    • Which is why I didn't mention that hardness testing, and specifically mentioned the bore and deck thickness testing. Yeah, not really. The bore temperature will be a lot more even around the top half inch or so, where the material distribution is dominated by the deck, and which is the only place where the bore surface temperature heating any gas in the cylinder is likely to have any effect on detonation. Think about it. Another inch or so down the bore, you might have a hotter spot. The gas there might get a bit hotter, then the piston rises squeezes that gas away from there at high speed and mixes it with other gas from nearby. Instant dilution of the problem. I'd be surprised if it was an issue at any time other than in racing engines or OEM dev engines being run at the ragged edge of tuning. Say what now?
    • https://dsportmag.com/the-tech/education/engine-tech-material-hardness-testing/ The PRP testing on block hardness I'm not sure how much it actually can be trusted. The thinner cylinder walls on RBs is a bit of a problem vs 2JZ but it really depends on the design goal. Siamesed cylinder bores like a 2JZ cause uneven cylinder wall temps too, which means a bit of distortion induced by that + the hotspot can affect knock margin. Something that actually gives me a bit of pause with the PRP block, whether super thick cylinder walls are going to keep it from being drop-in compatible on an otherwise OEM rebuild. 
    • Yeah very valid point. I am waiting for one of the other tuners to come back from vacation so he can help me a bit when the cat is installed again. In the meantime I am going to finish up my polishing and ceramic coating that I have started myself.    N45 Dr Beasley product is highly recommended for a paint primer / polisher. Using this EXO Gtechniq also for the ceramic but next time might use the light serum before hand also. Looks great.
