Did a firmware upgrade on the vipec that solved the misfire problem i was having a few pages back.

Went back for another tune it made 486rwkw on e85. Engine is rb26, -5's running 26 psi

Can any tech heads tell me how to upload the dyno graph as its over 2mb ??

I'll PM you my email and i'll do it for you if you aren't sure how to

Or, you can sign up with a hosting place like photobucket and host it there then use the IMG tags to embed into this thread

EDIT: Here they are

that is a huge number for -5's even on e85....

keen to know spec list too

I was suprised myself but I have dyno papers from when it was first run in on dyno on 14psi, then tuned on 21 psi on pump fuel, then now on E85.

All the dyno runs today were in 5th gear as 4th would just bag the tyres.

Spec list of what i can remember in no particular order is-

RWD Rb26 conversion in an r32gtst

r33 5 speed

hi octane 11 litre sump (rear head drain, nismo oil air seperator going into main catch can that drains to sump.)

1mm restrictor

2860 -5s

big trust intercooler (unsure of exact dimensions but its over 100mm thick and pretty huge)

exhaust is stainless split dumps into 3 inch y pipes into a 3.5 inch sidepipe no mufflers

cams are tomei 260 10.8mm lift??

nitto/je pistons

nitto I beam Rods

Arp stud kits throughout

balanced and blueprinted

nitto 1.2mm head gasket

vipec v44 ecu internal boost controlled

fuel system is 1v 044 lift pump

2x 044 external out of surge tank feeding hicas lines

greddy twin entry rail

aeromotive fuel reg

ID1000 injectors

Eyebrow's are raised by that result... Seems to be a bit on the generous side?!?

What would correction ratio be between AT 9deg and IT 21deg?

+1

With probably the strangest boost curve ever... And -5s hold 26psi @ 8000rpm without any drop off in torque!?!

This is certainly odd.

I assumed the figure was so high as its rwd only?

To begin with the boost was at 24psi but the boost curve flattened off aswel as the power curve around 6500rpm making consistant 430 odd rwkw.

The tuner asked if i was happy with that and I said i wanted to add a litte more boost at the end of the rev range to see if the power curve would continue upwards in the direction it was heading. He then snuck more boost into the engine up top and thats what happened.

Im stoked with it, haters are guna hate either way but it is what it is.

The tuner said it was cylinder pressure that would kill the engine and it seemed as though it was struggling for spark as you can see from the dip in the power curve that looks like wheelspin after 5500.

The tuner had to adjust the boost controller in that way so it would run properly.

I have a crappy photo of the dyno screen from where he was adding more boost. It went 420 on 21ish then 460 odd on 24+ then made 486 up to 26psi

I just dont know how to upload it as its over 2mb. I can send it to someone if they can do it for me?

    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
    • See if you can thermal epoxy a heatsink or two onto it?
    • The other problem was one of those "oh shit we are going to die moments". Basically the high spec Q50s have a full electric steering rack, and the povo ones had a regular hydraulic rack with an electric pump.  So couple of laps into session 5 as I came into turn 2 (big run off now, happily), the dash turned into a christmas tree and the steering became super heavy and I went well off. I assumed it was a tyre failure so limped to the pits, but everything was OK. But....the master warning light was still on so I checked the DTCs and saw – C13E6 “Heat Protection”. Yes, that bloody steering rack computer sitting where the oil cooler should be has its own sensors and error logic, and decided I was using the steering wheel too much. I really appreciated the helpful information in the manual (my bold) POSSIBLE CAUSE • Continuing the overloading steering (Sports driving in the circuit etc,) “DATA MONITOR” >> “C/M TEMPERATURE”. The rise of steering force motor internal temperature caused the protection function to operate. This is not a system malfunction. INSPECTION END So, basically the electric motor in the steering rack got to 150c, and it decided to shut down without warning for my safety. Didn't feel safe. Short term I'll see if I can duct some air to that motor (the engine bay is sealed pretty tight). Long term, depending on how often this happens, I'll look into swapping the povo spec electric/hydraulic rack in. While the rack should be fine the power supply to the pump will be a pain and might be best to deal with it when I add a PDM.
    • And finally, 2 problems I really need to sort.  Firstly as Matt said the auto trans is not happy as it gets hot - I couldn't log the temps but the gauge showed 90o. On the first day I took it out back in Feb, because the coolant was getting hot I never got to any auto trans issues; but on this day by late session 3 and then really clearly in 4 and 5 as it got hotter it just would not shift up. You can hear the issue really clearly at 12:55 and 16:20 on the vid. So the good news is, literally this week Ecutek finally released tuning for the jatco 7 speed. I'll have a chat to Racebox and see what they can do electrically to keep it cooler and to get the gears, if anything. That will likely take some R&D and can only really happen on track as it never gets even warm with road use. I've also picked up some eye wateringly expensive Redline D6 ATF to try, it had the highest viscosity I could find at 100o so we will see if that helps (just waiting for some oil pan gaskets so I can change it properly). If neither of those work I need to remove the coolant/trans interwarmer and the radiator cooler and go to an external cooler....somewhere.....(goodbye washer reservoir?), and if that fails give up on this mad idea and wait for Nissan to release the manual 400R
    • So, what else.... Power. I don't know what it is making because I haven't done a post tune dyno run yet; I will when I get a chance. It was 240rwkw dead stock. Conclusion from the day....it does not need a single kw more until I sort some other stuff. It comes on so hard that I could hear the twin N1 turbos on the R32 crying, and I just can't use what it has around a tight track with the current setup. Brakes. They are perfect. Hit them hard all day and they never felt like having an issue; you can see in the video we were making ground on much lighter cars on better tyres under brakes. They are standard (red sport) calipers, standard size discs in DBA5000 2 piece, Winmax pads and Motul RBF600 fluid, all from Matty at Racebrakes Sydney. Keeping in mind the car is more powerful than my R32 and weighs 1780, he clearly knows his shit. Suspension. This is one of the first areas I need to change. It has electronically controlled dampers from factory, but everything is just way too soft for track work even on the hardest setting (it is nice when hustling on country roads though). In particular it rolls into oversteer mid corner and pitches too much under hard braking so it becomes unstable eg in the turn 1 kink I need to brake early, turn through the kink then brake again so I don't pirouette like an AE86. I need to get some decent shocks with matched springs and sway bars ASAP, even if it is just a v1 setup until I work out a proper race/rally setup later. Tyres. I am running Yoko A052 in 235/45/18 all round, because that was what I could get in approximately the right height on wheels I had in the shed (Rays/Nismo 18x8 off the old Leaf actually!). As track tyres they are pretty poor; I note GTSBoy recently posted a porker comparo video including them where they were about the same as AD09.....that is nothing like a top line track tyre. I'll start getting that sorted but realistically I should get proper sized wheels first (likely 9.5 +38 front and 11 +55 at the rear, so a custom order, and I can't rotate them like the R32), then work out what the best tyre option is. BTW on that, Targa Tas had gone to road tyres instead of semi slicks now so that is a whole other world of choices to sort. Diff. This is the other thing that urgently needs to be addressed. It left massive 1s out of the fish hook all day, even when I was trying not too (you can also hear it reving on the video, and see the RPM rising too fast compared to speed in the data). It has an open diff that Infiniti optimistically called a B-LSD for "Brake Limited Slip Diff". It does good straight line standing start 11s but it is woeful on the track. Nismo seem to make a 2 way for it.
