Al Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 Wait for a SAU or club "dyno day"Just saw this thread for the first time VERY impressive and a nice selection of mods. I too have a HKS GTRS kit; but running Tomei Poncams, head porting, std plenum and std bottom end. My a/f ratios were kept at approx. 11.5:1, to keep the engine "safe". Running 18psi i made 268.2rwkw, but your response is WAY more impressive. Could be due to the plenum, cams, fmic (i was using a truck core), but most probably to the fresh rebuild. The engine has since blown, while i was at a race track (cyl #3 dropped compression), and i have decided to build an rb2530, which means upgrading the turbo, again. I guess i will never know what the GTRS's true potential is, but yours demonstrates it clearly. Well done mate, an excellent build and it would feel awesome to drive. Below is a comparison between our two graphs, you will be happy: For my new engine i have bought a new GReddy plenum, XTR 100mm fmic, Garrett GT30R turbo 500hp (smallest recommended turbo), ATI balancer and a whole lot of other parts. Unfortunately it takes my mechanic a lot longer than 3 weeks to build an engine, but we'll get there. All the best and enjoy Damn 11 months since that post and i am only getting the car back this week Car was ready 4 months ago, but had to go back to be rebuilt as the block used had a pin-hole and was weeping oil. Any built as described in my quoted post: not sure i mentioned rb30det, and using a 70mm core not the 100mm Note: Dyno graphs for "running in" tune. Once run in car will be tuned properly with an extra 5psi, more aggressive timing, adjustments of the IN and EXH cam gears and 8000rpm rev limit.

siddr20 Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 Al thats one of the cleanest and most sexiest engine bay i have seen in a long time. So simple, yet a beast leaks beneath it all!! btw where did you get that rocker cover from?

Al Posted July 4, 2008 Share Posted July 4, 2008 Thanks mate! If you are referring to the coil pack cover; it's the std one with the center milled out and meshed.

Interloper Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 Damn 11 months since that post and i am only getting the car back this week Car was ready 4 months ago, but had to go back to be rebuilt as the block used had a pin-hole and was weeping oil.

Can't wait to see it at a SAU event- you'll have to take me for a spin - i was plently impressed with you previous setup - this ones gonna be a monster! I've got the GTS4 booked in for cam gears and a retune - but any gains will seem pathetic compared to your's!

WARLORD Posted July 5, 2008 Author Share Posted July 5, 2008 good stuff al nice engine cool engine bay ill like to see the out come when you turn it up. it will be nice if you could do a comparison with our new set ups like you did with the gt-rs turbos Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/172704-money-money-money/page/6/#findComment-3994136 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I might give it a try when i got some time.. hows my toyo t1rs going? lol Believe it or not, they have just been fitted to the car last week I am yet to drive with them, but all should be good, read some good reviews on them, before i bought them off you.

It's totally different to the way my rb25det setup delivered power. In the dry, this is more tractable and doesn't tend to kick out violently; unless you want it too Good luck with the re-tune buddy!

Al Posted July 5, 2008 Share Posted July 5, 2008 Thanks Sly33 & Warlord, No build-up thread unfortunately. Can't wait to wind it up myself. You can't see it in the pic, but at the moment i have a direct line from the comp cover to the actuator, no solenoids, restricters or boost controllers. In most setups, this normally makes the power feel doughy or laggy, but i get 1bar of boost by 2800rpm So once the engine is bedded in we'll be playing around a fair bit with the set-up and extract as much response and power as possible. Dotted line = Power curve Solid Line = Boost curve Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/172704-money-money-money/page/6/#findComment-3994488 Share on other sites More sharing options...
