There are only 3 ways to achieve over 2.8 litres, so it's not hard to work through them. I eliminated the 86/84mm combo as it gives 29.3 not 29.5. If I had known it was that capacity then the combo is obvious, although I still don't like the rod stroke ratio.

A questions if I may;

Why did you go for 86mm? Since you have to use tall liners I would have thought 87mm would have been more user friendly, plus give some more (0.7L) capacity.

Cheers

Gary

I chose 86mm as it leaves a little more rigidity in the block, and allows me to go up .5 or 1mm later if need be.

Capacity is 2.93, but everyone rounds up don't they?? so 2.95 was closest.

cheers,

Ben

Well its Friday night and 7.02pm and still at work...trying to break into the safe so that i can have the R32 with the mostest ;)

Firstly, this is one of the better viral marketing campaigns I've seen, onya Benno!

Secondly, and this is close to my heart and for that matter my wallet, how does one get rid of the heat that this engine would generate on the track. My measly 350kw is sending my water temps into the oh shit zone after 3 laps on a 28 degreee day.... :banana:

How the hell did Gibson and the boys do it for 1,000 k's. :P

shouldnt u just round down to 2.9? only time i've seen capacity mentioned to 2 decimal places is on the old 6.75 bentley motors...

anyway what turbos? are they custom pistons? what cams? spill motherfcuker!! :(:)

U don't happen to have a 6.3 AMG do you?

LOL just kidding. Congrat for the great result.

My T517Z produced similar results on a stroked RB as well. I wish I didn't leave the dyno in the car in SA and can post it up for comparision.

Keen to know what turbo you used?

Very flash Ben, or rather impressivie as I know you are not a flashy guy. Awesome dyno graph also.

Starting to look like a 300zx dyno graph although mine was on race fuel so not same. lol Waiting..........

Extra bit of engine capacity and stoke gives a lot more down low.

Below is my Z dyno graph on the rleft compared to two RB26 GTR's with the middle one with HKS GTRS turbo's and the one far right with lag for sale is T88.

i would like to point out that its not exactly apples to apples...

the rb's are coming on a little later but reving a lot further.

useful rev range and average power in this band is what u want :D

50 mm PWR radiator

Large Oil cooler, mounted in the side vents (NOT in front of the radiator)

Tube and fin intercooler (NOT bar and plate)

If you are consistenbtly using more than 8,000 rpm (on the track) then an N1 water pump is worthwhile

Make sure you bleed ALL of the the air out of the coolant system

Cheers

50 mm PWR radiator - I have a 40mm one with the shroud - sounds like I need a bigger one

Large Oil cooler, mounted in the side vents (NOT in front of the radiator) - Done - sort of - I have a side mounted HKS 16 row one - maybe need a bigger one.

Tube and fin intercooler (NOT bar and plate) - doh - have an AVO bar and plate

If you are consistenbtly using more than 8,000 rpm (on the track) then an N1 water pump is worthwhile - Got one

Make sure you bleed ALL of the the air out of the coolant system - New engine - I assume that is ok.

    • Hi all,   long time listener, first time caller   i was wondering if anyone can help me identify a transistor on the climate control unit board that decided to fry itself   I've circled it in the attached photo   any help would be appreciated
    • I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!
    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
