awkw is run using four wheels, rwkw is using rear wheels? hahahaha...

I know its not 50/50 but you would still consider it awd right? 60/40? still an awd system.

Anyways, i already the difference and have seen and read it several times. It is only running 25psi for 425awkw as the boost is dropping. Either way its because i told him not to push it too far also as i dont want to make the extra power and then risking the motor. Either way everyone knows its not always about the numbers, its about how it drives and as i said, who says hks gt-rs lags on a 2.6l? :D

Hahaha yeah i know, a mate of mine ran 10.98 with 350awkw so i know its possible just wanted to do a time for myself

I'll run on the front rollers if you want when in RWD mod, that way they are all turning if it'll make you feel better?

Drop the shaft and see for yourself perhaps - only takes 15mins and you too can become a believer as it's not 40/60 either, it's totally dependant on many factors and is NOT a set figure so whilst a GTR indeed is 4WD, it's not fulltime 4WD or a set percentage fulltime - its variable. Certainly not AWD either.

Just have a look @ the gauge next time you are driving around. Half the time the gauge is only moving minor amounts not even close to 30% :(

GT-RS are laggy on a 2.6l by my definition, and plenty of others. Everyone just classes "lag" differently.

Some people find it acceptable (you) that useable power doesnt come on until after 4500rpm, some don't (me) ;)

I'll be at the 21st cruise, car should be aswel but it's touch and go waiting for a bit to be fabbed up for it.

We should just all meet on the m4 haha

Once the new exhaust is fitted I'll retune and go for the big 500kw mark

lol.. as long as you say its 4wd, whether or not its fulltime or not... 4wd is 4wd - who cares anyways and stupid argument.

If its 4wd it means its awd because 4 wheel drive, car only has 4 wheels so then its all wheel drive? same shit, different wording?

Anyways, yes i find GT-RS isnt as laggy as people may have described thats all, how long does it take to get from 2500rpm to 4500rpm?

The GT-RS is laggy however if you dont have the supporting modifications and proper tune.

Sounds good, if anything we can meet up there :D

To be honest i have thought of going on the m4 several times hahahaha nice straight to test!

You got a picture of your dyno N1GTR?

What a strange post.

It makes a big difference if its fulltime 4wd or not.

In the car world, all wheel drive means all wheels are being powered all the time (not necessarily equally). So no its not the same shit.

Do you understand what lag means? Questioning how long it takes to get from 2500rpm to 4500rpm does not change that there is a delay in response ie lag.

If this response is acceptable to you then fantastic, enjoy it. I too dont mind a bit of lag but I dont argue that its not laggy.

Not sure how many people running GTRS's on an RB26 wouldnt have a tune??

^ Yeah i dunno what he is going on about to be honest...

Clearly doesnt understand what makes each different, or what a definition of lag is either :(

Well it takes you a lot longer than me, given I'm well and truly on boost by 3500rpm ;)

Come on man, some logic please! Who would bolt on 450-500rwkw worth of turbo without such mods :D

Get your car to 5000rpm, jump off the throttle and then jump back on it - you cannot sit there and legitmately say there is instant boost. It takes ages (in my terms, clearly nothing in yours) :D

Ash get an NA already you throttle response whore

lol you class RS's the same as i do on a 2.6l you muppet :(

I'm gonna slap you when I'm up there next!

Well talking about what makes each different, dont go comparing rwd dyno results to me running on an awd dyno with a '4wd gt-r' when i am sitting on the rollers with 4wheels and not 2wheels? lol

lol... i do understand what lag is but i can accept its what i find acceptable for the amount of power that unleashes after 4500rpm compared to when i had 2530s which would puff out.

well mine makes 405awkw = approx 450rwkw (as per my tuner states)

^ Then rw and awd is different? Hmmms i thought it was too until R31nismoid is trying to make me think otherwise? lol

Marko R1, you running E-85?

well mine makes 405awkw = approx 450rwkw (as per my tuner states)

have you actually tested that theory?

my old GTR made 405kw in rear wheel drive then we switched it to 4WD straight away and it pulled 419KW,

no e85 yet - sooooooon :banana:

my tuner says that it should be able to run 30+psi safely & should add 50awkw

Sure you've got those numbers in the right order?

Yep definatley. Watched it with my own eyes. Thats why i question it every time someone says more rwkw to awkw. Unless it was a freak run. Only tried it once

Someone else needs to try this and see what happens just to make sure it wasn't a freak run like you say

    • Per Mark Roberts of Sonictune: Mark Robert Author At this time, no. No ETA either 2016-17 models. You will be able to purchase and install a 2018.5+ TCU though   TCU purchasing and pricing info! As we near the release of TCU tuning, I am going to answer some questions I get asked often.   What do I need for TCU tuning? At this time, you will need a 2018.5+ TCU to be able to tune. If you have a 2016-to early 2018, you will need to replace your TCU with the newer version. One good way to know if your TCU is good is if you have auto upshift in manual mode in 1st gear around 6500 rpms. If your manual 1st gear goes to 7k rpm and will hit the rev limiter unless you shift, you have the older TCU.   Why do I need to buy another ecu license/phone flash if I already have it on my ECU tune? The TCU is its own computer module. It is completely separate from the ECU. Because of this, you will be required to purchase a TCU license and, if your tuner has it, the phone flash license required to tune it via phone/bluetooth.   Do I need TCU tuning? TCU tuning is NOT required. However, the faster your setup, the more it will assist in track and dragy time consistency.   If I’m ECU tuned by (tuner A) can I get my TCU tuned by (Tuner ? Yes, since it’s a different module and a completely separate flash, you can have two different tuners. However, it is highly recommend that you have both tuned by the same tuner. For me, my TCU tuning will directly complement my ECU tuning style and features and running my ECU and another TCU or vice versa MIGHT cause some issues. At this time and for the foreseeable future, I will only be tuning my current ECU tuned customers TCUs.     I have a SYVECS AWD controller. Do I still need it? Yes! The AWD controllers main job is to control your AWD system. However, with TCU tuning, you will no longer need the auto-shift function as that will be done through the TCU. The AWD controller will still be very beneficial for racers looking to maximize traction on the launch.     Shift schedule changes: holding gears longer at lower pedal input as well as max shift rpm changes. Please note, the new ECU race rom coming out will address 90% of the shitty drivability issues these cars have through custom maps from myself and Racebox—as well as others I am sure.   Increase shift speeds: as seen in the videos I’ve been posting, the TCU shifts much faster once tuned.   Increased shift pressures: as also seen in the videos, much firmer full throttle shifts.

    • The fancy pants red shock tower brace is finally incoming from MX5 Mania, getting it shipped from 'Merica has been a long and problematic process, and GWR, the 'Merican supplier will not ship directly to consumers outside of the US, Mania basically had to order a heap of them, the colour choice was silver, or red, and we all know anything red adds 5 killerwasps of dynotorques..... Whilst it does fit over a 2.5, and I've seen a few photos and videos of it being installed and fitting, google also says it might get real close to the FAB9 intake front runner, people in the US says it does fit with the FAB9 intake, except for one person who said it slightly touched.......so there is that.....LOL..... As it seems that I am the first in AU to have this combination of parts there's no local knowledge about fitment, so I'm just a willing guinea pig in this endeavour, I'll cross my fingers and toes and hope for the best In other news, I ordered stuff from China  on the same day I ordered the 23° silicone bend from Victoria, the stuff from China arrived a day ago, the 23° silicone bend is still travelling around Australia thanks to Australia Post, and "may" be here next week
    • Very good news...I contacted Racebox about it last night. My car is a 2016 so remains to be seen if it is compatible, requires a TCU swap, or is impossible.
    • What ECU are you running? This is probably the biggest question. If it's a PowerFC, I'd probably change the ECU and get something newer that will handle the injectors in a nicer way.
