451awkw won the Auto Salon dyno??? :D

6 cyl AWD...720kw won Power Champion (Mr HDT blown VK)

Not a bad result though for Dave's genuine daily commuter vehicle.

(not too many cars get driven to and from work every day 40mins each way with that sort of mumbo)

Its the 2nd car in the pics. Its our time attack car we ran at Superlap.

I tuned the car in about an hour on friday night and settled for a boost, timing and fuel level that the engine was the happiest at. The injector size limited the level of boost i could wind into it (700cc's)

both cars pictured both sported built engines with HKS T04Z's except the blue one has a shot of NOS

needless to say we had it more than covered.

Yes Richard the car is nuts on the road with massive power and excellent throttle response. I was a very nervous passenger on the trip from the dyno to Autosalon.

Was it a pump fuel or race fuel tune dg?

Sunoco...it made 420awkw at 22psi on BP98...we put the Sunoco in and it went backwards to 390 odd kw. Then i adjusted the timing and leaned it off (Sunoco is a slow burning fuel and likes it lean with lots of timing) and power started to climb again. Then once the correct plugs were fitted it really started to make the power it should have. Then a couple more psi of boost until we saw 450kw (600hp) at the treads.

A more experienced tuner may have gotten more power but considering my limited experience it was as far as i was confident of pushing it without hurting it.

did you end up hireing turbotechnics's dyno mate?

nah we didn't have it ready to run until after 6 friday night due to us wasting too much time trying to get mine finished... so we took it down to Chris Bale's at Toronto. Chris offered to stay open as long as we needed which was great of him but we only needed an hour.

Thanks again for your help.

    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
    • Yeah, shame. Maybe  driver's carpet is available 🙏. I am waiting for both amayama and nangun to confirm.
