3037 S uses standard exhaust manifold with custom HKS dump as will the 2835.

Will I loose much more bottom end with a GT-rs? as compared to 2835/3037

I would also like to know how much torque these various turbo's will produce (i have planned to install 260 degree poncams aswell)

Anyone know?

if your interested in dragging, why would you even consider a gtrs?

im not a fan of them at all.

way to much money for way to little return.

my opinion only

on a stock bottom end 3037

on a built bottom end gt3582

im running the latter with poncams and i can see 5 psi at 2500rpm

but i can also sit on 100 kph in second gear being auto, floor it and instantly the tyres light up at 100 kph,

it changes into drive and the speedo goes of the clock. in around 2 seconds. (keeps the crowd happy)

a gtrs struggles to spin the wheels at all.

great turbo to have purchased.

I have one on my JZX81 1JZ-GTE. awsome torque and great power throughout the rev range.

Mine makes around 290+rwkw on 16psi.

Then again my engine has a few more toys inside and out.

Will be keeping an eye on your posts to see what you get out of it with Martins skills behind it.

Goodluck

Sry to side track your thread man but would like to know a bit more about 32 4whore's set up as im going for similar power figures. Like are you running standard internals?

Got a retune yesterday by a well known member off this forum with a wideband and Datalogit now running 18psi and made 273.9rwkw on Aussies Dyno Hindmarsh today (previously 258 on their dyno). Cheers mate

Adrian, is that a suggestion to Lee to switch over to E85, or are you asking was the 273.9rwkw figure from switching to E85? My guess is the new power figure is still on 98RON petrol.

Lee, nice result. I bet the torque increase feels good too. Add another couple of psi, some mild (256-264 region) cams and you'll go close to 300.

Speaking of E85; I've got a new fuel rail (14mm o'ring - chromed and gleaming) a brand spankers set of 910cc Siemens and have just wired up some new connectors to suit. Now I just have to wait until the 06 Jan to tune it all. I don't think I'll need to upgrade injectors ever again. I started out with 780cc in mind, then decided to go for 870cc... then the 910's popped up.

Hi Matt

was just a suggestion,

are you going to do back to back testing still? If you dont mind me asking what did the custom rail and injectors set you back?

I need to think about an upgrade, at the moment my 740's have about 46 psi base and 50 psi when the pump steps up!

E85

Definately considering it Adrian.......After going for a ride in your beast it has got me thinking maybe in the new year we can sort it out with my current mods if your keen.

Still running BP Ultimate and Adrian is wanting to tune E85 (hence the post) in the old girl i'm just a bit put off with availability of the fuel at the moment

The torque has jumped from 6200 to 6800 tractive effort so definately a nice push in the back.

I may have not followed this thread properly but, has the block on Lee's car been cracked opened?

Has the head gasket been changed?

Still standard motor (unopened) running a nice safe tune.

Hey mate. Cool, I was 99% sure that was the case.

That's still the plan.

The rail is a straight swap between another BW customer - he needed an 11mm top-feed and I a 14mm. Worked out nicely. My old rail usually retails for ~$250 from James at Nisspeed - comes in either 11 or 14mm. James has one of each sitting on the shelf, I saw them on Saturday (13th Dec).

The injectors came through a workshop owner mate of mine, he ordered them in for a customer and then they decided to go for 1000+cc stuff. He said ~$80-90ea, RRP is usually ~$100-120. I've had the injectors for a few days and I'm just about to go and give him the dollars now, so I'll find out the exact price shortly. Either way $100-120 isn't a bad price for a new top quality injector.

$250 for a rail, $600-720 x 6 injectors, and some fittings and fuel line and you're good to go, be it 400hp or 1000hp. A set of direct fit Sard/Nismo/HKS etc. Side-feed injectors may or may not be cheaper, depending on the AU-Yen exchange rate at the moment.

I see you had some good results with E85 RB25DETS2.

323rwkw out of the .6 rear, std top end, std exh. manifold. Damn impressive. :)

Yeah thanks mate the thing is a completely different car. I would like to think that i had something to do with it but in reality 180or200 tuned the old girl and put me on to the fuel so he deserves all the credit. Very happy with it to say the least. Standard airbox also might be starting to choke it a bit.

Well done Lee & Adrian.

Can you list the mods that were required for the changeover?

Cheers Pete,

The only mod required was a decent fuel system to support the extra flow needed and a decent tune. I will be changing my Fuel filter after the first couple of tanks just incase it has picked up some crap.

    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
    • It was picked up on the MOT/Inspection that the offside front wheel bearing had excessive play along with the ball joint. It made sense to do both sides so I sourced a pair of spare IS200 hubs to do the swap. Unfortunately I don't have any photos of the strip down but here's a quick run down. On the back of the hub is a large circular dust cover, using a flat head screw driver and a mallet I prised it off. Underneath will reveal a 32mm hub nut (impact gun recommended). With the hub nut removed the ABS ring can be removed (I ended up using a magnetic pick up tool to help). Next up is to remove the stub axle, this was a little trickier due to limited tools. I tried a 3 leg puller but the gap between the hub and stub axle wasn't enough for the legs to get in and under. Next option was a lump hammer and someone pulling the stub axle at the same time. After a few heavy hits it released. The lower bearing race had seized itself onto the stub axle, which was fine because I was replacing them anyway. With the upper bearing race removed and the grease cleaned off they looked like this The left one looked pristine inside but gave us the most trouble. The right one had some surface rust but came apart in a single hit, figure that out?! I got a local garage to press the new wheel bearings in, reassemble was the opposite and didn't take long at all. Removing the hub itself was simple. Starting with removing the brake caliper, 2x 14mm bolts for the caliper slider and 2x 19mm? for the carrier > hub bolts. I used a cable tie to secure the caliper to the upper arm so it was out of the way, there's a 10mm bolt securing the ABS sensor on. With the brake disc removed from the hub next are the three castle nuts for the upper and lower ball joints and track rod end. Two of these had their own R clip and one split pin. A few hits with the hammer and they're released (I left the castle nuts on by a couple of turns), the track rod ends gave me the most grief and I may have nipped the boots (oops). Fitting is the reversal and is very quick and easy to do. The lower ball joints are held onto the hub by 2x 17mm bolts. The castle nut did increase in socket size to 22mm from memory (this may vary from supplier) The two front tyres weren't in great condition, so I had those replaced with some budget tyres for the time being. I'll be replacing the wheels and tyres in the future, this was to get me on the road without the worry of the police hassling me.
    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
