I agree Stao, the wastegate puck needs more tension however you can get it.

Are you tuning again mate? Would it be ok if I come down and say hi? Trent is just around the corner from me. :)

Or Mitch and I can go to the dyno day in June here in Canberra $50

Who could be bothered spending another $50 to put the cars on the same dyno when Jez has essentially done that by overlaying the graphs... I think with a bit of timing pulled for safety it was only doing about 237rwkw or so on back to back hot runs.

Kasko, perhaps get one of stao's wastegate mods and see if it will hold 20 psi all the way? Then i daresay you graph will be more impressive.

I had one of the wastegate mods on originally and it held a solid 21psi from memory, but i didnt want that much boost so it got taken off. Dunno what happened to it though otherwise i would give it to you...

Edited by Mitcho_7

I dont doubt that it will make a little more power using the 20psi.

But it will still be limited by the det we saw at 250kw wouldnt it?

If the SS was running 18psi like joshes I think the graphs would pretty much match.

Once my clutch is fixed josh you can come around and take it for a brap see what you think.

Which clutch did y get?..

I've stalled the button only once, taking of in first can be a little tricky, don't pay attention it give it enough revs and its bunny hop time..so I just take off chirpies the whole time..like a boss

HAHA nice work!

Ended up getting one made up from KB clutches in Sydney.

I told him everything to do with how much power,torque,rpm etc

HD cover assy

HD clutch plate organic facing SBF

Release bearing

Freight to Canberra

$410

On the positive side, I've made a miniature version of the G3, you can call it G2.5. Its smaller, with better response, and made to produce a top of 300rwkws. Testing that on Friday.

Oooh, me rikee the sound of that!

I cannot decide which way to go. I want ~300rwkw max so a turbo capable of 330ish is simply going to induce lag at my target and the smaller turbos have to be leaned on very hard to not quite make it so a 2.5 could be just the ticket!

Thats a good price Kasko, you did well.

LOL @ Dave, fail launch like a boss.

The guy seemed to know his stuff so fingers crossed it holds

On the topic of stalling.

When I first picked up the 33 it was my first manual car and first time driving a manual lol

Ended up getting stuck at a traffic lights so long the light turned from red to green to red

After a 5km drive I was sweating like a pig

LOL a lot of people have been there and done that, DW about it.

Nobody would teach me manual when I was first getting my license. I ended up taking out my brothers brand new impreza and thrashing it in order to get my bearings. Have been fine ever since, or so I tell myself.

I paid for driving lessons lol, no one I knew had manual cars or wanted me to drive them. I'd driven manual once before and it was complete fail, got the car moving maybe once. First professional manual driving lesson...the guy had me driving the thing like a pro after 10 minutes!

SS1PU with E-flex? That's about as responsive as you could get 300rwkw IMO. May not be your cup of tea running on sugar (cwatididthar?).

E-Flex is too hard to come by. If the Eltham United ever started stocking it, I'd give it a bang for sure. Until then I'm not keen on a 70k round trip in traffic just to get fuel and I've got nowhere at home to store any in bulk.

So in the mean time I want to get ~300rwkw with as much poke as possible. At the moment it's a G3 or 3037 from what I can gather. If I can get a G3 which sacrifices a bit of top end for earlier boost and more through the middle, gimme!

The mystro re-tuned the car.

21U High-flow. Now on S15 Injectors, Z32 and United E85. My old ass fuel pump from jland (tomei/nismo) is a little sick and needs a holiday, have a replacement on the way.

Green = BP98

Blue = United E85

wow... Thats real nice John, only 14psi too..your gunna love it when you get back to the track..

Ya know 2 yrs ago I was going to build my car just as you have there and looking at that I kinda wish I had.. :laugh:

If you get 27kws birds should get at least 30 too ...which means hes gunna be nudging 300 on stock housings :woot:

I thought you needed to run stock injectors in your race class, or have you moved up the ranks..?

Moved up.

The S15 Injectors don't have much head left in them anyway. They were cheap and getting hold of 555/740cc atm is hard. As all you pricks and buying them quick.

    • Yeah, it's getting like that, my daughter is coming over on Thursday to help me remove the bonnet so I can install the Carbuilders underbonnet stuff,  I might get her to give me a hand and remove the hardtop, maybe, because on really hot days the detachable hardtop helps the aircon keep the interior cool, the heat just punches straight through to rag top I also don't have enough hair for the "wind in the hair" experience, so there is that....LOL
    • Could be falling edge/rising edge is set wrong. Are you getting sync errors?
    • On BMWs what I do because I'm more confident that I can't instantly crush the pinch welds and do thousands of USD in chassis damage is use a set of rubber jacking pads designed to protect the chassis/plastic adapter and raise a corner of the car, place the aforementioned 2x12 inch wooden planks under a tire, drop the car, then this normally gives me enough clearance to get to the front central jack point. If you don't need it to be a ramp it only needs to be 1-1.5 feet long. On my R33 I do not trust the pinch welds to tolerate any of this so I drive up on the ramps. Before then when I had to get a new floor jack that no longer cleared the front lip I removed it to get enough clearance to put the jack under it. Once you're on the ramps once you simply never let the car down to the ground. It lives on the ramps or on jack stands.
    • Nah. You need 2x taps for anything that you cannot pass the tap all the way through. And even then, there's a point in response to the above which I will come back to. The 2x taps are 1x tapered for starting, and 1x plug tap for working to the bottom of blind holes. That block's port is effectively a blind hole from the perspective of the tap. The tapered tap/tapered thread response. You don't ever leave a female hole tapered. They are supposed to be parallel, hence the wide section of a tapered tap being parallel, the existince of plug taps, etc. The male is tapered so that it will eventually get too fat for the female thread, and yes, there is some risk if the tapped length of the female hole doesn't offer enough threads, that it will not lock up very nicely. But you can always buzz off the extra length on the male thread, and the tape is very good at adding bulk to the joint.
    • Nice....looking forward to that update
