Had the car tuned at CV Performance on Saturday morning...

The car has been tuned to run on 10psi boost where it made 189.6rwkw!!!

(alot better than the 114rwkw effort at AUTOSALON)

Then wound the boost up to 13psi and hit 203.4rwkw!!!

I now need to get a custom dump pipe and a high flow cat - CAN ANYONE HELP???

Next step is to see what sort of time i can make at WSID

*Will post up pick of print out soon*

Basti,

Lol, the 114rwkw at AUTOSALON was coz i had massive big range fuel cut and i was miss firing bad...

But, mods include...

- 3" exhaust w/ 6" cannon 4" tip

- Front mount intercooler 300x600x76mm - JustJap

- Cold air intake

- Pod Filter

- SSQ BOV

- NGK race spark plugs - instead of having a pin for spark, they have a big flat area! gapped to 0.7mm

- GFB manual boost contoller

- Apexi SAFC forgot that one!!! whoops!!!

- Shell V-power Racing!

Thats all performance wise....

300x50076mm... daamn thats a big intercooler! :whistling:

From what I've seen the spark plugs with the big flat area are the copper type. The Iridium are usually the pin type. I could be wrong but those race plugs sound like the regular copper plugs? Anyway if you need to gap them down to 0.7mm to cure your misfire then expect a coil pack replacement in the near future :rolleyes:

Nice power from the mods though!

And in regards to replacing coil packs, i won't have a problem with miss firing as the spark plugs are more than cable of running the car with the standard turbo.

I will only need to replace coil packs say if i do a high flow and start pushing for close to 300rwkw or so...

If u run the right plugs at the right gap, and the right sort of fuel, say good buy to miss firing!

0.7 just seems a bit too much.. thats all!! no matter what plugs they are!!

0.75 seems alright..

Anyways if the cars happy, then thats all too it. .

Which safc do you have?

Please post a dyno graph.. Keen to see how the curve looks like!!

btw gd kw reading.. congrats!!

i was getting 183kw without any safc or tune on 10psi.. I had a nice curve, but i might invest in an safc soon.. Since i can get a hold of a power fc due to huge price..

Speaking of gapping sparkies,.....I bought a set of NGK Iridiums and wanted to gap it same as my old sparkies, but looking at the back of the packaging, it said "DO NOT REGAP THE SPARK PLUGS AS......"....so I left it at god know what gap (most likely 0.9 or 1) is that ok??

I'm not getting any misfire at that gap range.

James, if you have a look at the part number for the spark plugs, it tells you what the standard gap is. For example, NGK's BKR5EIX-11's have a 1.1mm gap, it's the last two numbers that tell you what the gap is.

    • Just wanted to pop in an update on my setup. The CD swap has been great, I love the mazworks housing for the overall simplicity. I ended up sealing my trans tunnel with a thin sheet of aluminum reused some of the holes on the trans tunnel, and laid some window sealing EPS foam around the edges. Works great, really quieted things down and sealed up the car.  As for the power comment. Right now I am also running about 650whp. with the way the bell housing is attached to the face of the transmission I have zero doubts it would be fine, mainly because the input shaft and main shaft bearings are seated into the bell housing adapter. This means the load is NOT on the bolts to maintain the power, rather into he casing of the bell housing; Yes the bolts are doing some work there, but with both shafts locked in zero worries.  End of the day, the Mazworks solution is the easiest and safest. no need to take your trans to a shop to get milled perfectly, it fits with minimal clearancing, and you can use all your existing clutch and flywheel.  Driving wise the CD has been great compared to the big box, I'll probably swap my final drive at some point. The serial 9 shifter is gooooood, my only qualm is how tight it is, it takes a fair bit to get use to, 5th and 6th are a bit eh/hard to find at times, but maybe I need re-adjusting, and I think my clutch master is very tired and needs a rebuild. 
    • If you are keen, have a look at my build thread. Car is for sale for the right money or straight swap for a F80 M3 LCI.
    • Welcome mate.  No point in over thinking it, buying any one of those cars you mentioned is not a smart or logical choice with the availability of many "better" (re price to performance) cars available to you.  The heart wants what the heart wants, buy whatever it leads you too.
    • Hey everyone! Im so grateful to be apart of this community and ill do my best to be apart of this. Firstly, i'm not disclosing my real name due to in real life circumstances surrounding my privacy and public image (sorry lol) Secondly, The only thing personal I am willing to share is that I'm from Sydney and a descendant of one of Sydneys largest mortgage firms. I got gifted my first ever car, a 2022 Porsche Cayenne and I love it to death. Ive been driving it for about 5 or 6 months now and honestly Im so grateful for my parents for gifting me this vehicle. However recently I've been working my ass off to afford my second car (which I need help deciding soooooo community help me out please?). Once decided, im planning to try modify it myself. Recent I've been thinking about getting a Skyline, particularly a 25GT or GT-V, yes I know overrated as hell, but I'm also considering a Chaser which I recently came to love. However my dream is to one day own a 180SX (So hard to find clean versions and im not really into importing).  Lastly before I send this off, I want to apologize if I sound tacky or pretentious. I try not to and want to genuinely learn from everyone and anyone. (Im no expert in this area) Thanks for reading!
