Anyone with -5's on a 2.6 want to take me for a qick spin in sydney? Beers or petrol your way for the effort, Cheers

Been for a spin, is don is good.

No where near the lag anyone whines about at all.

Start a thread in the NSW area - you will have a better chance :)

Not a lot of -5 GTR's in here because most on an unbuilt 2.6 end up around 360/380kw

The more I see these e85 results the more I need to get my ass into gear.

Are u using pump e85?

Pump e85, just as good as any v8 super brew... been there tested all that jazz.

To put an end to all the hub dyno bullshit we run our dyno on the latest SAE correction some other operators run the older US spec din figures which inflates power.

On two occasions within 3rwkw of the mainline @ drdrifts (same day) and on average a little less than the racepace dyno (not done back to back but car was suplied with current sheets to compare too)... close to chasers as well.

Do you have a graph by any chance for that?

+1 for proof.

My 26 with -5s had full boost between 3500-4000rpm and it was very nice. Did not feel laggy at all.

Unless by "full boost" you mean 5psi... There is no way, with a 2.6ltr that you'll make 20psi at 3500rpm on PULP. There is not one car in the 2.6ltr dyno thread that comes within 500rpm of that.

Even 4000rpm you are going to struggle on a lot of setups.

My PB 60 footer was 1.5sec and I remember when it hooked up that I actually lost grip of the steering wheel. It really got me by surprise as I didn't expect those G's.

I always had a higher respect for bikes as you get into 1:1 power to weight ratio hence this was a friendly wake up call for me at the time.

I had the same power level as you and this is capable of a 10.8 pass, proof is in the pudding :)

The hi octane r32gtr ran a 9.7 on circuit slicks i think haha and that had 440kw from what I remember? It isn't even a purpose built drag race, pure circuit car :)

    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
