what about the A10? 988cc, 59bhp, 82Nm... 'nuff said.

how could i forget: worlds all time greatest hero engine! :excl:

finding a gearbox to handle all that torque could be a worry though =[

Partnerships and the responses of a beautiful and enjoyable show their young LOOOOL

hmmm....

*sculls bottle of absinthe

ahh- now you make sense :worship:

bkc, i suggest you talk to Nissan and convince them with your thorough reasoning that the RB26 is better. Imagine how much money you'd save them if they dropped this new V-engine R&D nonsense and chucked a good ol' RB26 in each new GTR. They could hit HKS up for a pair of 2530s and f-con, chuck on some 555cc injectors and a fuel pump which they could get at mates rates from the boys over at Nismo and then get her over to the workshop down the road to give it a conservative tune on 1.2bar on their dyno.

Here's a short analysis of power and torque figures:

Last (R34) RB26DETT: 206 kW @ 6800 rpm and 392 N·m @ 4400 rpm. At peak power, the RB26 is producing ~290Nm of torque ie. dying in the arse.

VR38DETT: 353 kW @ 6800 rpm and 588 N·m @ 3200-5200 rpm. At peak power, the VR38 is still producing just under 500Nm of torque. ie. not dying in the arse.

The VR38 develops a lot more torque and has a far wider spread of torque. It complies with the latest, strictest emission regulations, ie. it makes this power quietly and efficiently. Nissan have spent who knows how many millions of dollars making sure this engine runs PERFECTLY, in every sense possible. No misfire, no vacuum leaks, no setting the boost controller to get rid of spiking or boost drop, the boost delivery is flat and perfect, the torque curve is massive, the power smooth and endless. A tuned RB26 doesn't even come CLOSE to standing a chance (on any count other than outright power), let alone a stock RB26.

bkc is just trying to keep the value of his R34 V-spec 2 high by demonizing the VR engine.....that is, making the wild and crazy assumption that he actually has one (it's a stretch, i know)

he's probably got the 'superior' D10. :worship:

STOCK VR38DETT IS THE BETTER FROM STOCK RB26DETT I KNOW THAT !!

2009 Nissan GT-R will be priced at :

$69,850 for the base model

$71,900 for the Premium trim

Both prices include delivery charges.

Nissan intends to build just 1,500 GT-Rs per year during this model's lifecycle,

Pre-orders begin January 1, 2008

The 2009 GT-R will officially go on sale in June.

HOW MUCH PRICE GTR34 FROM 1999 TO 2002 ?????

A new, much better car is a lot more expensive than a 5-8 year old second hand inferior car, what's your point? Did you know that you can get a VL turbo to do 10 second quarter miles for about a fifth of the price of an R34 GTR? Clearly the RB30ET is a superior motor to the RB26DETT.

VR38DETT engine Almenyun!! Engine V is only TOURQU !! Any type of engines in the form of V !! But serious or high-strength shoulder and promotion of a failed and you will soon !!!!!!

But no one will mention this fact!! It is natural because they need the profit and sales!!!

But I have a question I hope to answer is whether the new GTR him MANUAL

Transmiton 6 SPEED!! Or only F1 and Siquantial AUTO???

Thanks all .....

The VR38 peaks at 150kW more than the RB26DETT, from factory. Please explain how this is only torque? Are you aware of the direct relationship between torque and power? An engine CAN NOT 'only tourqu', if it generates a moment about the crankshaft and it spins, it's doing work and there is power output.

What is the significance of the V layout for you? Do you know how long manufacturers have been making engines in this arrangement? It generally requires extra balancing over a typical inline arrangement, but with modern technology this is not an issue. Are you aware that dragsters that do 4-5 seconds over the quarter mile use 8 cylinders in a V-arrangement?

I give up. My head hurts.

ps. GTR is flappy paddle gearbox only for now.

    • Well it wasn't as easy as I thought.... and it also wasn't in my original manual which I did end up finding. They discuss the process in the Nismo catalogue though and it requires slight machining. Page 145.  NISMO PARTS CATALOGUE 2020
    • I'm an idiot, my intercooler is rated for 1000hp. I had clicked on the wrong product. Knowing the delta P would be nice, but I'm doubtful I'll do it. Now as for an EMAP, that would be great and I'll get around to it eventually but from my findings in my last post, I'm considering a turbo swap now. 
    • You sir, big win tonight. Precision never supplied compressor maps in the past and Idk when they started, but it seems they only offer for a few of the older gen2's which is exactly what I have. I punched in some numbers and seem to have gone with the wrong turbo. 600-700whp isn't in the most efficient area and is close to the choke line. 800whp is well off the map. Punching the numbers into a 68mm gen2 turbo map is bang on in the center. Here I was thinking going smaller would shift the power band down, but in reality it would just make it so much worst due to my rev limit. I would have never thought. 
    • Increasing overlap will bring the torque down earlier (and make your idle sound sick lol). Worth a shot (if you dyno time) to experience a bit (providing you are confident your valves won't kiss your pistons). Is to just take off 5 degrees across the boosted area of the map, and then retard the exhaust cam let's say, 3 degrees at a time and then overlay all the runs with VCT on all the way and VCT off as soon as you make positive pressure. Ideally you would have a total of 6x overlays to looks at 0 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve 0 exhaust & VCT on all the way -5 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -5 exhaust & VCT on all the way -10 exhaust & VCT off once manifold pressure is +ve -10 exhaust & VCT on all the way Just leave your O2 wideband closed loop on for all of the boost area & RPM, and hopefully there isn't too much fuel correction needed and the Haltech is fast enough to compensate (I do this, then apply the correction to the main table). Getting that overlay data should give you a good indication of what to aim for.
    • So, my main limitation here is that the car does not have an oil pressure sensor by default, just a switch. As part of my tune I bought an oil pressure sensor upgrade so I now have access to oil pressure levels and logging rather than just the boolean behaviour of the switch but this means I need to use the tuning app to display this value. So, this rules out using any other app on the iPad. The app will also flash when pressure drops which is a nice feature. I have replaced the centre screen with an Android one, which is awesome for Android Auto, but I think it might be too far away and out of my line of sight. I might add some gauges to it this weekend and just see. I guess if its just temp and oil pressure I can make them massive! 🤣
