Stao just a question, given the hub dyno is only attached to the rear wheel wouldn't that make it rwkws ?, also next time you guys run it up would it be possible to do a run then reattach the front wheel and see if having spin up the extra weight of the front wheels makes any difference ?

Only if you think it can be done safely that is

Hi guys the cooler thats on it has a jap name but I'm sure its made in China. The one I'm using cost $195. Pm if any one needs one. My 600x300x68mm cooler is for sale also, did one dyno run only, $180.

This car its pretty much a rear wheel drive, front wheels only comes in for few secs, its not always on. Trent mentioned it picks up a tinny bit of extra torque with front drive shaft removed, and its not worth his efforts removing it. So all the runs done after the SL20.5 turbo has front wheels engaged.

I think my cooler is only a cheap one, had it for 6 years now I think. Have recently been thinking about upgrading but can only fit a 76mm cooler. Is a good quality 76mm fine Stao you think?

I have 3" cooler pipes everywhere so it gets plenty of flow to and from it. Just a bit worried about the cooler now

If you get a ARC you will be sweet, can't get any better and they know it

Like this, if it will fit a 33

But no M109 cores :(

further update on the GTR single setup. Now will be evaluating based on a custom trimmed SS3 compressor wheel. Hopping to reach 400rwkws mark with peek boost hit close to 4000RPM as possible. Results will be updated once tuner get back from holidays next years.

Tell the truth Johnny you just wanted GAAAAAAAATTTEEEE! :D

....... yes that is the truth :)

On another note, decided to strap my shit box to Powertune's heart breaker dyno.. only made 315kW... however I did notice my manifold was glowing red, meaning it needs MOAR timing :)

I logged all three runs too on my laptop and transposed that data into Virtual Dyno and used a lower reading "mustang dyno" setting and it was showing 345kW...

Another guy with a R34 GT-t said his car was making well over 360kW, and only put out 320kW.... so I'm pretty happy with my results overall considering it was all self tuned & self built.

I'll take a snap of my dyno sheet tonight for lulz.

So (again), I've decided to keep my car - this means more mods.

Nice result. What mods next? 150 shot on the stock motor? Haha

better intercooler, I found that my intake air temps shot up to 52 degrees towards the end of each run and subsequently the ECU was taking out 3 degrees of timing (I set it like that so I don't kapow motor)...

Turns out the HDi intercoolers are ok, but cooling wise they aren't that great when you're putting through 1.6bar of boost.. when I did logging on the streets with quick squirts in 2nd and 3rd gear intake temps were great, but the true test is when it's off it's chops in 4th on a dyno.

I'm seeing if it's worth getting a 100mm Plazmaman cooler OR just a ling long dim sim 600x300x100..

Are there any photos of the 100mm cooler that Hypergear sells, installed on a Skyline specifically? It was mentioned a page or two back. Cutting holes would be required I imagine.

I would also be curious to know. Plazmaman items aren't cheap

Same shape as this, but bit thicker. It just fits in between the fan and front bumper with the factory mesh removed. Its pretty good for a cheap cooler.

When the car was on the dyno, I left the laptop logging data. Looks like the intercooler is unable to keep the charge temps low (I have a GM IAT sensor just after the FMIC).

I'm using a HDi core with Plazmaman "swept back" piping.. the FMIC measures 600x300x76mm.

P.S. I'll scan my dyno sheet tomorrow at work

    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
    • So, a bit of a side trip, but one that might be interesting for people with JDM cars and japanese head units. I know @Pac previously posted about a carplay/android auto adapter he installed which used the AUX input, and @V35_Paul put in one of the Tesla style units that replace both screens. The option I went with was a Lsait LLT-YF-VER5.87_2 (https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8GB-Android-Multimedia-Interface-for_1601187633672.html). Price was $1,150 for a single unit although they are much cheaper if you are willing to buy 2....$857ea. Make you you get the version 2 not version 1, it is faster and has a better UI - this is the manufacturer listing: http://www.lsailt.com/product/348.html. BTW if you've never bought from Alibaba before, don't be concerned....these guys can't stay in business unless they are responsive, ship fast etc, they were excellent (probably faster shipping than most local places) So, this was my task for a lazy Sat afternoon....looks complex but was all done in a few hours (it probably helps that I had some of it apart before so it was a bit familiar). I also decided to add a HD USB drive recorded at the same time and the unit also supports an aftermarket reverse cam (if you don't want to retain factory) and also AV in and HDMI out It looks much worse than it is, in fact in was genuinely all plug and play (no custom wiring at all). This video was pretty good (skipped a few steps), unfortunately they are an Aussie seller but no longer sell this unit (I guess Carplay/AA adapters are easier to install and much cheaper) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5hJfYOB8Dg
    • That still isn't a lot to go on. I don't have a Y50 Fuga Head Unit wiring diagram. I can say that a lot of nissans of that age shared head unit plugs, so if you are in Australia something like this would probably help: https://aerpro.com/app091# You plug that into the car loom, then either plug the head unit ISO into that (if it has ISO), or you buy and ISO adapter harness that you wire in. Bit of stuffing around, but once you have ISO its easy to change things in future.
    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.
