where did master yoda go?

he was in here for ages and hasnt posted anything.

i guess the point i was trying to make is are gtrs's the best response/low down power turbo for the 25?

boost maybe!

power far from it....

boost isnt everything.

im not really hinting anything BH im just opening another line of thought into the whole responsive thing.

most people enjoy going fast and to consider what i have achieved at such low speed without cam timing adjustments, i was just opening up some conversation on the matter.

our guru disco allways says that a gt35 is too much for a street car, but why is it making the most power at low revs?

and then more power compared to the gt30 based units?

How much preload/time is before the run? (ie, are you waiting till boost it built off the auto/stall) or are you just launchin into it ?

Ah Yoda

no stalling up on the convertor just a normal run.

i just thought it was interesting.

And it is. Sometimes people have to step sideways to move forwards.

Up in a bigger league, the GTRS may look a little insipid, but I don't think it's at all disgraced.

The strangest thing about upsizing is the different feeling of response. Maybe the sounds contribute to that as well?

Look at torque down low rather than power.

400Nm at 3000rpm is 126kW.

400Nm at 6500rpm is 272kW.

126kW doesn't sound as impressive but the torque output of the motor is the same..expecting heaps of power down low is unrealistic from a 2.5, but i bet the GTRS-equipped RB25s make useful torque way lower than the GT35.

    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
