Just put the figures in the dyno tool paul was quite interesting maybe gtrs aren't to bad comes on about the same as my setup but with heaps more in the midrange.... As Cubes said earlier its hard to compare dyno graph but there you go.....

Screenshot??

quite easy to compare dyno graphs if the dyno's are operated correctly. Between Croydon's Dyno Dynamics and Autosalon's Mainline we usually only see a couple of KW's difference, but thats a topic for another thread.

Agreed Cubes but to make another 50kw that low down where its not making much boost regardless of how it was loaded is quite impressive..

Hey Guys,

I thought this post would stir some interest.

Now, the 450@wheels top end is okay, but check the torque curve and compare it to other rb's.

It makes like twice a normal rb between 2-4500!

This is the area most gtr owners complain about.

It is bizarre to drive, kinda like a quiet 6 litre n/a v12 that makes 600whp and revs to 9k....

I think we can get similiar improvements from the 2.6 as well.

cheers,

Ben

Surely lowly RB20 owners would not be able to afford welding and therefore resort to race taping the 2 blocks together.

That's just stupid man, everyone knows you need to use zip ties to put 2 RB20's together. Noob.

Yep - I don't know what you did to mine but in the quick drive I had last week it sure has changed down low. I honestly thought at first you had changed turbo's on me. So I don't know if you have started tinkering with your ideas on a 2.6 already?

Still - it's nothing compared to yours now I'm sure. It sure looks impressive.

Its truely mental...and i thought our torque curve was fat and flat. Its the ultimate circuit/street engine set-up. The linear power delivery would ensure a well balanced car coming onto the power through the twisties. Again Ben...job well done mate.

Tomm0...run in tune with BP98 as stated.

OFENSV, was done in 3rd to stop turbo shuffle, actually made another 10KW the night before at CRD in 4th gear. Jim just knows how to ramp it properly in 4th to stop it, old mate at Autosalon is not as experienced as Jim...hence 3rd gear.

now back to chatting about this bloody torque monster.

EDIT: Ben, any chance of getting a torque printout in a better scale...say 5000-15000N (motive force) or a 100-1300NM (torque).

Man, insane results - well done :teehee: There was a guy in NZ running I think low 11s (at least) with his R32 with what was rumoured to be an RB25 (or 26?) running an RD28 crank and rods and some aftermarket pistons resulting in a 2.9l. Not sure how much there is to that rumour, I've hunted around trying to find information on the parts to see if it can be or has been done and documented but to no avail.

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
