Nice! How hard were you pushing the last one?

My ss2 only got tuned to 18psi due to faults/leaks etc that I've mostly fixed. pulled some timing and got it up to 25 last week, almost ready for retune

Pushed the shit out of it, tried screwing 26psi through it but didn't make a single kW more. Turbo rear was glowing as bright as the sun haha. It did make more mid range torque but pointless as it bled down to 22psi up top.

Ended up only making 327kW pulled out some timing and it mad 325kW (mainline). Results did vary from another dyno I which read 340kW (dyno dynamic).

I think Tao uses a different rear housing now, because he warned me my turbo won't line up to my dump pipe now.

E85, but at the time I was tuning it was showing E72 (I run flex, car many runs 98RON).. I doubt a 10% different in ethanol would make that much of a difference in power.

they say it's on par, you would net the same results with E85 vs WMI 50/50 mix...

that was according to Yauvz's engineering mate (which is also on this forum)..

Yes it is more responsive. and can be built in to an OP6 rear housing.

Is it possible to get similar response out of an OP6 housing? Or is the 21U more suited?

10psi by 3250RPM and full boost by 3500RPM looks pretty nice (from the 21U). The biggest issue with all the OP6 high flow charts I've seen is boost comes on at 4000RPM which is far too late in a street car...

Specifically my question is can the OP6 housing produce "enough" power while retaining factory-like response. The standard OP6 boost response on my GTT is fine. A high flow coming in at 4000RPM would not be.

By "enough" power I mean a nice fat curve across the rev band. I care more about the total area under the curve than the peak value.

I'm sure a BW EFR turbo could be at full boost by 3500 their only a bit more than a hiflow.

unfortunately cost as much as our GTS-t rust buckets.

They have some with compressor covers that have a 90 deg bend cast into them too.

So $3K for the best turbo on the planet and $800 for a hiflow.

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
