Your seat, I never saw you get out of the car you lazy bastard. :)

Why, eye's letting go in your senior years?

Hahaha ok ill stop

In related news there should be two more 400 club members in the next few weeks, one an r33 gtr and one an r32 gtr

I'm hoping I will be a member as early as this evening.

I better or I'll probably get shot for the way I've hijacked this thread. :)

I havnt seen the graph yet Mike but we didnt quite make it to 400 kw. We did achieve everywhere else tho. Itys boosting hard and early and has shitloads more power under the graph.

Will get the before and after graph posted up tomorrow when I head over to the workshop.

Apparently we have run out of turbo so i guess the 1.06 housing is the next step.

And 380 somethin kw's was the number.

381rwkw is the highest we could get it.

Yes Gervase the air temp sensor is on the wall and you know why it is.

The boost falls over in the top end as the housing on the turbo is just too small. 1psi pressure drop in the cooler and an identical line it follows.

14 degrees of timing added in places where it used to be 0.

Going to put the EGT's on tomorrow to see what time she'll run on Saturday. 4th gear is happy in the pants on the highway too

Sees 1 bar at 3450rpm and 24psi at around 3800rpm but the graph doesn't show it due to the curve in the corner when the gate tries to catch up

Nice work Noel.

Did u change much to gain the extra midrange or was it tuned stronger compared to the other dyno graph that its comparing too?

We changed a fair bit Jez, Its a new head and a new fuel system running e85.

Its a work in progress and the goal is to hit the track next year with a fat 550/600 hp with the emphasis on fat. Piss easy to get that power with a bigger turbo but that isnt what I'm after.

The power chase will have to go on the back burner for a while now as I have too much other shit to do to the car.

In the mean time we will explore turbo options, I'm thinking a split pulse 1.06 rear housing for the 35r or possibly even a twin setup.

Still a great achievement there Noel. Its the response thats going to help out the most. Good Work!

Agreed mike, As you know that has always been the goal. I am stoked with the result.

We knew after the last go round that the turb would hold us back

, the 35r has its limitations with the smaller housing but it has made the path a lot clearer for us now.

Yeh I cant think of too many ways of achieving the 550/600rwhp mark with a gt35r, maybe a good split pulse manifold for starters, some wilder cams, though that will no doubt make the power more peaky which isnt really where you want it, but if you dont lose any low-midrange power then I wouldnt complain. Another possibility is one of those forced performance turbos with the billet comp wheels. However they are pretty exxy. And well a stroker of some description would definitely help with everything!

I'm hedging my bets on a split pulse setup. I wont change the cams. for the reason you mentioned,

If the split pulse setup can keep the response roughly where it is and give us another 50/60 ponies it will be more than enough to scare the crap out of this old man.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
