Sorry Dan i run 150psi bfp via a mechanical pump and dont have to worry about cam gears as it runs pneumatic operated valves another JHH mod they do... Coil packs are splitfires so virtually a standard coil regardless of that johns engines just seem to make great power at the end of the day..

No I said the adjustable cam gears cancel out the dodgey coil packs. You still need to run the rail pressure at 140-180psi.

Just think about how much more hp you can make with those gears and no other mod...it's like 200hp waiting to come out!!

And it's not John's engine. He did the cylinder head.

yeah but thats 8 psi....wait till the wick is wound up once she's had a run in period. then we'll see about bee's piss ultimate and axle snapping power

and wtf is going on with this BS.... cam gears cancelling out dodgy coils? F*cking magazine mechanic.

its not done in shootout mode so can't really compare the graphs against anything

:):D:D

yeh autosalon brisbane isnt until later in the year...

but then how do we justify the extra 310hp its going to make? :D

Maybe Dan's got an excessive stock of (Adjustable) cam gear his trying to off load before the end of finacial year to anyone with ignition problems... :D :D :D

or maybe he's just a c unt?

yeh thats right i said it :woot:

its only number though geoff

whats the power & torque curves like?

Sif I care numbnuts. Go find it if it's that important to ya.....but being a 30 hybrid it will have about twice what Noel is packin. :)

The carbon bonnet and flush fitting pins we installed lastnight is what will take this baby over the line im expecting it to crack 600hp

Can i get a price on those cam gears dan, I still have not been able to chirp second....

I've never read so much bullshit. Everyone knows that its blue cam gear covers that fix dodgey coil paks. Dan you are full of it. :P

There are plenty of cars out there that can leave mine in the shade but i am extremely happy with the figures given how little we had to lean on it to produce them. With the afm (q45 we were struggling to get it anywhere near these numbers with another 800rpm and an extra 8% of timing.

Once the Haltech was installed it made power so easily it was ridiculous.

In hindsight I think I may have achieved a better result with the z32 over the q45. Nothing i can prove, just a gut feeling.

The rev limiter is now set to 7800 rpm as opposed to 8700 previously. boost is 25 lb instead of 28 and as i said, timing is 8% less than previous. More power with less work makes me happy in the pants.

And NO Shane, I am not going to up the ante. Its more than quick enough to keep this old man entertained.

Big thanks to Dan from elite racing for the build. And to mik the patient from signature performance for his tuning work. We are damn fortunate to have some non dodgey operators with scruples up our way. (plenty of the other kind too)

yeah Dan sucks....he never built anything

except the engine in question ha ha

Heres a couple interesting dyno grpahs from a local skyline owner (fineline to be exact).

it's interesting to see how much power its making and the torque aswell.

Gah stupid rolling road dynos having no rpm indication or solid link to hubs so it can all be put on an even scale for comparison. Very impressive curve shape though, care to share specs??

Its pretty much full house for a 25 mate. The usual bottom end, blueprinted, balanced, cryo'd crank etc, o.s. giken slugs, eagle rods, Hi energy gated and baffled sump, Jun oil pump, restrictors, bleed back etc. Extensive head work, Including solid lifter conversion, major porting, chamber mods. os feria valves (exhaust only) stiffer springs, Custom signature performance himount topped with a surge ported 35/40 garret, Tial 44 mil external gate. 3and 1/2 inch dump through same diameter exhaust. Greddy plenum, 800cc sards, tomei rail. big fmic, radiator etc, etc. All managed by a haltech e11v2.

No secrets in there Lithium. Simply a combination of good quality componentry and expertise.

I have bolted up a snow performance water meth injection kit too but its coming out now. I see no reason to bother hooking it up as there is still plenty left in the engine as it is if we want it, I dont think I'll bother. Its a tunnafun to drive and any more grunt would just be wasted..

Fantastic, thanks for sharing :laugh: Sounds like an awesome piece of kit - I bet its fun! Good work.

    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything 
    • 🏆 Skyline Supremacy Meets Mount Panorama Magic 🏆 Join SAU NSW as we take the long way to Bathurst, the home of GTR greatness. Saturday 30th August 2025 7:00AM Meeting Hanna Park North Richmond 7:30AM Departure Cruise Via Bells of Line Road 9:00AM Arrival to Stop 1: Golden Poplars Meadow Flat 9:45AM Arrival to Final Destination: Mount Panorama Motor Racing Circuit Meet Location: Hanna Park North Richmond Stop 1: Golden Poplars Meadow Flat Final Destination: Mount Panorama Motor Racing Circuit   *Disclaimer* There will be a lead and follow car so no one should get lost.

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
    • While I was waiting for the new parts to come in for the charge pipe and radiator I decided to do some turbo modification. The drive pressure (exhaust backpressure) was a lot higher that I thought it should be. For 32lbs of boost drive was 55lbs. The turbine housing is a 1.10AR and my turbo builder has suggested to go to a 1.25AR. To test if a larger AR would do anything to reduce drive pressure AND not spend any money I decided to hog out the divider in my current housing. I removed it from the inlet and the whole way through the housing.  After reassembly and testing it doesn't look like this modification did anything for reducing drive pressure or requiring more fuel (making more power). Oh well, it was worth a shot. We'll get some data at the track if it makes it past the 60ft. I also machined a $7 shift knob off Amazon to fit my Stillway shifter since I didn't like the Stillway shift knob. Next on the list was the radiator replacement and fabrication of a new intercooler tube that had no silicon coupler. No pictures of this - I was short on time each night after work to get this done and didn't stop to take pictures.  Next was to get the clutch disks out and replaced. Previously when installing the dogbox I had ordered a set of the same sintered iron disks I had been running because I switched to the 26-spline input shaft. I thought it was odd that they didn't have any markings or brand name on them like all my old disks had but installed them anyway. At the track I could not get the clutch to lock up using my normal strategies. After two track nights I reached out to the clutch manufacturer and ask their thoughts. They said they had to switch the material out because they were having trouble getting the original material and that this new material would not take to being slipped very well.  So out with the first set of 26-spline disks and in with the correct material 26-spline disks. While I had the trans out I added an inspection/service hole. I've wanted one of these for a while. Now I can have a look at things and change the front cover shimming when needed (clutch wear). I hustled and got the clutch change done in a few hours on a Saturday. Hopped in the car and drove home. On the way home I did a 1-3 pull. When shifting from 2nd to 3rd the core plug in the back of the cylinder head popped out and dumped all the coolant. Thankfully I was only 30 seconds from home and coasted it there. Datalog showed nothing unusual and 2.5psi of coolant pressure. That plug has been in there since 1992 but I guess it worked its way out. Pulled the trans AGAIN and replaced the plug, JB welded it in, and made a brace. Also deleted the head drain I had added in during the bearing issue fiasco.  I am currently changing my boost control plumbing to make it cleaner. After that is done I'll make another attempt at getting past the 60.
