what mph are you crossing the line at?

and was it 121hp or kw, cause i don't think you could do it with 123hp, even if you had drag slicks. if it was 121kw then i could believe it since i managed a 14.8 out of a magna with a 60ft time 0.187 slower than you. if i got a 2.0 60ft i'd be somewhere round the 14.5 mark.

i also notice that the dyno run you have posted says in the description that you say the car has a blocked cat, so if it does, what does it run without the blocked cat?

once again to clear things up, the car ran 123rwhp on the blocked cat, the 1/4 mile run was done with a new cat

No slicks were used, i explained what the car has done to it, nothing more nothing less.

If anyone lives in WA and wants to verify that it is what i say it is, then they are more than welcome to inspect the car.

Im not rogercordia, i dont have a need to make up bullshit

rofl...

your brother may have set a new bench mark for NA times. i'll take it down the strip when i get a spare chance.

i make 115kw, which is roughly 150HP - we'll see how it compares.

Have you got any mods? If so, what mods.

My RB25DE with only cat-back exhaust (probably makes no diff anyway) make 115kw aswell. No other mods, I am sure of that :whistling:

didn't dial any timing in. it's still whatever it is from the factory or previous owner.

the safc was to clean up the afr a bit not for any sort of power.

most of my mods are based around suspension parts and setup, not power.

although i might have to put some in to try this drag racing thing you guys call racing.

hahahaha, i'm kinda the opposite, mostly been racing my cars down the strip but with the new gt-four im keen to throw it around a track, even if it does mean i'm just going around in circles....

Vote1 for Shaved head/thinner head gasket.

Increases CR a bit.

Most likely a few degrees extra dialled in on the CAS.

Check what timing it runs at idle, unsure on the GTS, but on the GTS-t it should be 15degrees.

It definately has timing smashed into it, i said that on the first page. From memory the cas is pretty much maxed out so its probably running around 25 degrees of timing at idle lol, which kinda throws the shaved head out the door cause with the extra CR and all that timing its would be pinging its nuts off all day long which isnt the case

Im getting my n/a tuned it already has a catback and coldair/pod. It is getting a piggyback system,cams and a lightened flywheel. When its all done ill scan the drag slip onto the computer :O

good stuff, post up what power you get after the tune aswell :D

anyone else has got a time to post up please do, i wanted to get some general comparision going to set a general bench mark for n/a owners but the thread kinda got sidetracked lol

there is the oppportunity if me might being able to do a 1/4 mle in november but i dont know if i want to cause my poor engine is tired and im ummmm'ing and rrr'ing about whether to do it or not..................

    • Bit of an update to this one. Having some issues on the dyno that held us back (boost spiking) and I want to pass some info over you guys and see what you think is wrong with my setup. The current readout on this dyno is 462rwkw on a low reading dyno so keep in mind it is a real world 500rwkw setup on a hub dyno. Don't read into the power figure too much as a sign of the issue. The short and curly of it is: 2.8 Litre Racepace build RB25 NEO N/A Head with VCT (internally standard however ) Borgwarner EFR 8474  Turbosmart 50mm Straight Gate + Mac valve 6Boost Manifold 4" dump to full 4" exhaust (nil restrictions) Wastegate plumbed back in and all angles in the exhaust system are acceptable and not too sharp. GFB SV52 BOV in cooler piping  Turbosmart BOV in EFR Housing   The issue we are having is it comes onto full boost for example at 4000rpm and spikes to 24/25psi, before dropping down to 17psi before slowly rising back up to the target boost of 23psi. It was extremely uncontrollable and the tuner actually had to ramp in boost progrssively with each 1000rpm on each boost setting we selected to try and reduce the amount of spiking. Sometimes we would see a drop of 10psi from the peak at the beginning of the run, to the low, until it took the next 500-1000rpm to stabilise back up to the target boost. The tuner is pretty confident that the straight gate is just a poorly designed product and leaks too much boost upon cracking the gate open and theres no way to fix it other than going to a poppet valve. He's also confient theres no ignition breakdown or floating valves. The fueling is extremely stable as well. Turbo speed is somewhere around the 109,000rpm area. The spanner in the works for me is that prior to this Borgwarner and StraightGate, the car was tuned on -5 twins at a diferent tuner, and he also had issues controlling the boost with it spiking around the same rpm range, so to me this sounds like the same issue and it can't be anything on the turbo side as this was all changed and I think the behaviour is extremely similar, if not the same. We also removed the mac valve and did a run on wastegate pressure and it still spiked and had the same behaviour. My thoughts on possibilities are: Boost Leak VCT Cam Gear isn't reliably activating consistently - (On this however, we did a run with the VCT disabled and the boost still spiked) Turbosmart BOV is not handling the boost? However this seems unlikely to not be able to handle 20psi. I have a couple of logs that I can't make sense of if anybody knows how to read them and can obtain further logs of other parameters if they are not enough, happy to pay for anyones time. The dyno readout with the power figure is the most recent last week. The other picture is from two weeks prior to that where we couldn't break 400kw (we removed the cat), however the issue of the boost control persisted. @Lithium @Piggaz @burn4005 @GTSBoy @discopotato03 I've tagged those that were quite active in recent pages here, no disrespect to those that know turbos well but I missed tagging.

    • I recently purchased a 2018 Infiniti Q60, which has an SD card navigation map. I can see my system has options for real time traffic updates etc, and am wondering if there is something I can purchase to get this working? I can see there are at least updated maps for USA and Canada, but nothing for Australia. Surely Infiniti took changing road systems and city expansions into account when they decided to use an inbuilt navigation over Android Auto/Apple Car Play, or are we doomed to drive on streets that don't exist in the navigation system if you drive to a new area?
    • Luckily I didn't put in etch primer as I just found out it's not compatible with my body filler lol. Also just need to sand the panel anywhere between 150-400 grit so I'm in the clear there. It does say to not apply to soft old paint, I assume that means paint that is flaking, peeling,etc
    • @dbm7 and @GTSBoy thank you both very much! will give that a shot!
