no more sammich quote?

two was too much to ask for :P

paid for fuel this morning. 163.9 is an all time high that I have paid for the litre. just over $80 to fill the golf, and I am pretty sure the 32 is nearly out.

save the pic and upload it to this thread, work has all personal storage blocked and I am bored so I want to compare this dyno graph of -5 to my 2510s

I have 3/4 a tank of stale fuel in the 31, should last until I get back from melbourne :). Will put fresh fuel in for the tune.

I saw that man, and Its a pretty nice power curve, but, I would say it's a little low. -5's are 720HP worth of turbo.

Interesting it makes 10- 15 more horse power every where until it pulled away right at the end. Running lots more boost though (about 7 psi more!)so that might have smothing to do with it.

Its probably not a terrible result for him, it was done at the same tuner as me and his dyno is a bit of a low reader...as evidenced by all the sad faces at the dyno day the club had there! lol

I think you'd be doing really well to get 600hp+ out of -5s. The highest I've seen is 430kwish which is about 560hpish? I want to see someone throw a set of those new efr turbos on a 26 or 26/30. Would be a bitch piping wise but I bet they would crank out some solid numbers with epic response.

yeah twins on a GTR never seem to be able to hit thier combined rating, mine are rated a 310hp each...but are no where near that, infact people are amazed that i made what I did at the boost level I am on so yeah my 620hp turbos are flat out making 450 at the engine

Yeah I don't think it's as simple as I have 2 x 400hp turbos so I should make 800hp. Either way -5s seem to be the go to turbo if you want 400kw and still keep the twins.

sadly there doesnt seem to a be a lot inbetween somthing for 300awkw like a GTSS/ -9/2510 or 400awkw like 2530/ -5...though it would seem like the 2530- -5 are quite capable of matching at least the 2510 for response so just running them at less boost could fill that gap

Yeah, Twins never hit their advertised theoretic and neither does a single, although it does come alot closer, there are always loses, heat,drive train etc etc.

Are you talking about mercury, I was there for that dyno day a couple of mates had their cars run up.

I made 431HP on R33 N1's on my 32 at ~17PSI I would like to make more then another 36HP with a few hundred horsepower more of turbo on board.

Not to take anything away from that result, because that thing would go like a bat out of hell !

My N1's are busted now (oil seals) so -5's will be going on and shooting for 400AWKW.

See how I go i guess.

Today I made Craig do work. Was lulz :cool:

Yes i did have to work hard for that lol. The strange thing is that you will get more $$ for that sale than i will lol.

400awkw seems to be on the really well sorted motors with all the fruit to back it up + running 25psi lol. Most results on the -5s are 340 - 380kwish and yeah the response is pretty good aswell. You could get -9s and run E85 and go for 350kw lol.

I think he is referring to EFI at Yatala. -5s will be sick.

just be sure to keep going back to the same dyno to measure differences

and don't be disappointed or disillusioned if the temps and humidity is different on different days

most dynos have compensation to power depending on weather conditions

to give you an example of how different dynos can read;

roughly same temps etc, just different brand/model dynos (GTST 33 GT30 @ 19psi);

Matt Spry = 312rwkw

Mercury = 336rwkw

Allstar = 301rwkw (with wheel spin)

Godzilla = 331rwlw

So it was impossible for me to tell how much power I was making as it depended on which dyno we used...

all i know is it was 300rwkw+ :D

Yeah i am considering E85 at some point. taking my boost up from 15psi and running E85 would get me pretty close to 350 as well i reckon!

    • 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.
    • Also, I logged some data from the ECU for each session (mostly oil pressures and various temps, but also speed, revs etc, can't believe I forgot accelerator position). The Ecutek data loads nicely to datazap, I got good data from sessions 2, 3 and 4: https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-2?log=0&data=7 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-3?log=0&data=6 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-4?log=0&data=6 Each session is cut into 3 files but loaded together, you can change between them in the top left. As the test sessions are mostly about the car, not me, I basically start by checking the oil pressure (good, or at least consistent all day). These have an electrically controlled oil pump which targets 25psi(!) at low load and 50 at high. I'm running a much thicker oil than recommended by nissan (they said 0w20, I'm running 10w40) so its a little higher. The main thing is that it doesn't drop too far, eg in the long left hand fish hook, or under brakes so I know I'm not getting oil surge. Good start. Then Oil and Coolant temp, plus intercooler and intake temps, like this: Keeping in mind ambient was about 5o at session 2, I'd say the oil temp is good. The coolant temp as OK but a big worry for hot days (it was getting to 110 back in Feb when it was 35o) so I need to keep addressing that. The water to air intercooler is working totally backwards where we get 5o air in the intake, squish/warm it in the turbos (unknown temp) then run it through the intercoolers which are say 65o max in this case, then the result is 20o air into the engine......the day was too atypical to draw a conclusion on that I think, in the united states of freedom they do a lot of upsizing the intercooler and heat exchanger cores to get those temps down but they were OK this time. The other interesting (but not concerning) part for me was the turbo speed vs boost graph: I circled an example from the main straight. With the tune boost peaks at around 18psi but it deliberately drops to about 14psi at redline because the turbos are tiny - they choke at high revs and just create more heat than power if you run them hard all the way. But you can also see the turbo speed at the same time; it raises from about 180,000rpm to 210,000rpm which the boost falls....imagine the turbine speed if they held 18psi to redline. The wastegates are electrically controlled so there is a heap of logic about boost target, actual boost, delta etc etc but it all seems to work well
