-9's stock internals

-5's build engine

If you have stock engine and plan in doing a build as well go -5's saves u $ in the future

I still believe -9's on e85 would be a killer street setup....

I'm planning on going the e85 route I think. Having to build my engine now. Previously I thought I had just blown a turbo so I bought and installed -9s. Thinking -5s would be the better op on e85 + re built engine..

I think the -9s on e85 would be whey better, but then again I've been in very quick sr20's and 4g63's, so I know what instant torque on tap is with a 4banger. Once u go torque, u never go lag again

^^ got a dyno sheet?

Nah haven't got one. Take it down the strip soon and I will see what mph it pulls. That will tell me what power it puts down. Old school way and most accurate IMHO.

I was more after the shape of the curve.

Still good, be interesting to see what you pull

Look ok I did 12.2 @ 119mph and had 300rwkw. Very bad driver but whooped the ass of a charged commo with slicks.

'Instant torque' how instant are we talking with the -9s? Are they known to pull all the way to redline? With a new set of cams that is..

some of the guys with that setup could tell ya more regarding that, but more importantly whats your budget?!


These days 34 GTR N1's can be had for 4 cheap! I'd be focusing on that with the e85 and the cam gears with the tuning!


No need for cam shafts until later if ever



Does anyone know how fast i'd be be going if it took me an hour to get to my destination and the distance was 100km?

^^ Is this a trick question? lol

-5's on built engine with E85 would be the way i would go and if it is in the budget get the 2.8 as it would make them that much better. Here are 2530's (-5's) on a 2.6 with E85. Compare this with other set ups with a 2.8 and the difference is night and day.

Couldn't find the one with RPM.

Any one got a rough idea how much power my 32 GTR should be putting out if I can a 12.3 at 112mph?

By the mph about 240-250kws at the wheels Edited by XGTRX

King87 u made 150hp@ 100km/h = winning.. awesome top end tho! But in all honesty wouldn't 2530's be better suited to a 3.o bro or 3.2/3 for the street?

By the mph about 240kws at the wheels

I'd say 240.318kws @ the dildo shifter to be precise

    • Shhh... Muricans don't understand the idea of metric so can't find half the stuff we have for modifying JDM cars 😛
    • That may or may not be me that replied 😅
    • Your response is extremely similar to what someone on the Haltech tuning tips Facebook page answered me. I take it you're also on there haha. Dyno is booked for June 27th and that's exactly what I'll be doing. I also realized I never setup a pulse width adder table so I went and did that last night. Made a fair bit of fueling difference in low load areas.  I sorted out my power steering belt woes. It was an alignment issue and it has now survived multiple instances of abuse that would have killed it prior. I also changed my fuel pump hose. The hose I replaced looks nothing like the legit gates hose I received. Real hose is actually 5/16" and is labelled properly. Amazon refunded me but has been giving me grief about my nasty review I'm trying to leave... I keep having to modify it for acceptance. I want to make sure the point gets across to others.  Last issue I want to deal with soon is the slight vibration I get in my steering wheel with my GKTech Spacers in front. My annoyance has grown and I'm at a point where I want it resolved. I've tried everything I can come up with like clean spacers thoroughly, tighten in star pattern, retorque, have wheels rebalanced 4-5x with a variety of machines (2x with a Hunter elite). I've also taken the spacers off and remounted multiple times just in case.  I'm starting to think my GKtech spacers are at fault. I'll pop a wheel off and toss a dial indicator on tomorrow to verify runout and parallelism.
