heya bud didnt mean to sound rude if i did, from the info ive gathered i just thought at 20psi it would have been more like 350-360rwkw

this was a previous persons, power 'just made 320AWKW on 18lbs, full boost at 3800 (of the top of my head) -5's, custom dumps, inlet, pump, injectors, G4 LINK, std cams, std engine'

and my current set up with built engine but r34 bb turbos is making 280rwkw @ 15psi, im thinkn maybe just have my turbos rebuilt and hi flowed this should acheive the 320-340rwkw

Nah you didn't come across rude at all. :huh: I was just asking if you had personal experience, thats all.

What might clear ther air is that the dyno I was on is a very old model that is well known in Perth to measure less then I am actually doing. I few of the SAUWA members have reported in the past of running their car at the dyno I was on and a few weeks later running at other dynos around Perth and reporting a bigger figure.

My advanced timing is very conservative compared to other people. Plus also I am running low compression (1.6mm Gasket) So the -5's need to push alot more air to get a decent figure.

I agree that 330RWKW is abit on the low side compared to what others are getting but lets take into account that my motor used to have a T04Z with 6 Boost manifold and 50mm Ext Tial Wastegate and it was pushing 575RWHP with no advanced timing to speak off.

My motor is not the best example of the potential of -5's at 20PSI.

All will change at 24PSI though......... :P

-5's.

Thanks for letting me know.

I assume that you compression is standard?

Mine is much lower (with my 1.6mm gasket)

My motor was built for big PSI so its not the best example for 20PSI -5's :huh:

However once boost is raised then we'll see.

My motor just has bolt ons. I guess I am just trying to make the point (Again, I know I'll go away soon) that a -5 will push out numbers in the range of 400-450rwhp on less psi than a -7 or even a -9.

Which is always a bonus if you want to look after the thing. Less compression = less heat.

But to clarify for two same same motors with different turbos and a same rwhp number the BMEP figure for the motors will be very close.

with cams your power is low because of your 8200 rev limit i would say!

i have stock cams and mine is 8600! still making power at 8500 8600!!!

on just 15 16 psi 400.6 rwhp in 47deg heat would easy go more on a cool day!

i will be re wiring my fuel pump and spit fire coil packs then tuned to 20 22 psi so stayed tuned!

i have 5s to by the way

330rwkw for 20psi is an awful lot of boost for that reading from a -5.

My RB26 is within a few rwkw using 15psi.

I was thinking the same thing. Mine makes 320KW at the wheels at 17psi and it's an original build

...Why would you have expected more? Have you had personal experience with GT2860R-5's?...

...We are expecting over 500 All Wheel HP once done.

I will keep you all posted. :P

In my personal experience I just thought their would be more to gain. Yes I do, see above. I would be expecting something around 480whp on a 2.6. Good luck Adam and please post up the future results :huh:

I think the maps show that around that range the -5's and -9's are about the same? But, as it gets higher in airflow the -5's excel

stock bottom end & now requires a bottom end rebuild (factory gtr bottom end is not engineered to handle this power, it has happened to me twice now)

in terms of rwkw i think you lose 10% in awkw mode, so maybe call it 350rwkw?

paul (dirtgarage, aka gtr wikipedia lol) can confirm this if he happens to read my post

yes i thought it was good mph as well nick & a little surprised myself, to be 100% accurate i cracked 129.75mph (130mph would have been nice)

Good work - Offtopic: Who will be building your new bottom end? Pm if you like

Will do :)

    • I'm looking for some real world experiences/feed back from anyone who has personally ran a EFR7670 with a 1.05 exhaust housing or a .83 I'm leaning towards the .83 because its a street car used mostly for spirited driving in the canyons roads. I"m not looking for big numbers on paper. I want a responsive powerband that will be very linear to 8000 rpm. I dont mind if power remains somewhat flat but dont want power to drop off on top. The turbo I've purchased is a 1.05, although the mounting flange T3 vs T4 and internal vs external waste gates are different on both housings, I not concern about swapping parts or making fabrication mods to get what I want. Based on some of the research I've done with chat gpt, the 1.05 housing seems to be the way to go with slightly more lag and future proofing for more mods but recommends .83 for best response/street car setup. AI doesn't have the same emotions as real people driving a GTR so I think you guys will be able to give me better feed back 😀   
    • Surely somebody has one in VIC. Have you asked at any shops?  Is this the yearly inspection or did you get a canary?
    • This is where I share pain with you, @Duncan. The move to change so many cooling system pieces to plastic is a killer! Plastic end tanks and a few plastic hose flanges on my car's fail after so little time.  Curious about the need for a bigger rad, is that just for long sessions in the summer or because the car generally needs more cooling?
    • So, that is it! It is a pretty expensive process with the ATF costing 50-100 per 5 litres, and a mechanic will probably charge plenty because they don't want to do it. Still, considering how dirty my fluid was at 120,000klm I think it would be worth doing more like every 80,000 to keep the trans happy, they are very expensive to replace. The job is not that hard if you have the specialist tools so you can save a bit of money and do it yourself!
    • OK, onto filling. So I don't really have any pics, but will describe the process as best I can. The USDM workshop manual also covers it from TM-285 onwards. First, make sure the drain plug (17mm) is snug. Not too tight yet because it is coming off again. Note it does have a copper washer that you could replace or anneal (heat up with a blow torch) to seal nicely. Remove the fill plug, which has an inhex (I think it was 6mm but didn't check). Then, screw in the fill fitting, making sure it has a suitable o-ring (mine came without but I think it is meant to be supplied). It is important that you only screw it in hand tight. I didn't get a good pic of it, but the fill plug leads to a tube about 70mm long inside the transmission. This sets the factory level for fluid in the trans (above the join line for the pan!) and will take about 3l to fill. You then need to connect your fluid pump to the fitting via a hose, and pump in whatever amount of fluid you removed (maybe 3 litres, in my case 7 litres). If you put in more than 3l, it will spill out when you remove the fitting, so do quickly and with a drain pan underneath. Once you have pumped in the required amount of clean ATF, you start the engine and run it for 3 minutes to let the fluid circulate. Don't run it longer and if possible check the fluid temp is under 40oC (Ecutek shows Auto Trans Fluid temp now, or you could use an infrared temp gun on the bottom of the pan). The manual stresses the bit about fluid temperature because it expands when hot an might result in an underfil. So from here, the factory manual says to do the "spill and fill" again, and I did. That is, put an oil pan under the drain plug and undo it with a 17mm spanner, then watch your expensive fluid fall back out again, you should get about 3 litres.  Then, put the drain plug back in, pump 3 litres back in through the fill plug with the fitting and pump, disconnect the fill fitting and replace the fill plug, start the car and run for another 3 minutes (making sure the temp is still under 40oC). The manual then asks for a 3rd "spill and fill" just like above. I also did that and so had put 13l in by now.  This time they want you to keep the engine running and run the transmission through R and D (I hope the wheels are still off the ground!) for a while, and allow the trans temp to get to 40oC, then engine off. Finally, back under the car and undo the fill plug to let the overfill drain out; it will stop running when fluid is at the top of the levelling tube. According to the factory, that is job done! Post that, I reconnected the fill fitting and pumped in an extra 0.5l. AMS says 1.5l overfill is safe, but I started with less to see how it goes, I will add another 1.0 litres later if I'm still not happy with the hot shifts.
