mate thats one tidy car, nice buy mate, hows it feel to drive and own a skyline :woot:

soooo much better then the mx-5 i drove for 3 and a half years before it :D

nah i cant knock the little bugger, was such a fun car to drive (all handling/suspension mods).. just, it had the torque of a $29 battery drill. still i loved the go kart feel of it, and being able to smash it through corners at twice the speed limit.

needless to say, after getting the skyline to look how i want it to, the first purchase will be coilovers!

hey man, ahhh yer lol guess the weight on the mx-5 would have made it a nible car and nice around corners, but hey like you said the r33 has much more torque and will be fun to once you make it how you like :banana: ahh, yer good choice with the collies man.. enjoy the car

haha so true bubba so true!

Here's an example.. my turbo upgrade (high mount GT35R, foward facing plenum, GTR cooler/piping/bov's), blew out with a High Energy sump and head off to put oil restrictors in. On the weekend we decided that because the engine is coming out and will be mostly apart.. might aswell throw some spool rods, longnose crank snout and ATI balancer and get it all balanced.. NEVER ENDING SAGA :D

      Yeah nice idea, you mean to suction it to the gauges? I hadn't thought of that.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By Dose Pipe Sutututu · Posted

      A few suggestions: Do you have the option of retarding your exhaust cam gear to bring the power band over to the left? VCT would be turned off after you make peak torque, you see the power/torque will decay faster with it left on all the way to the limiter Once VCT is turned off, you'll find the motor will take a bit more timing being ramped in Send its mum, more boost! Of course, depends on your exhaust pressure.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I was back on the dyno again yesterday after completely revamping my methanol injection system. I was making 440kw at 19psi. Great, this is more then I was making last summer with my old meth system at that pressure, and I figured it would be smooth sailing up to 30+psi. We continued increasing from there and by 25psi, I had only hit 455kw. Dyno sadly lost utility power at this point and I left. We seemed to be on course to hit the same power wall as last summer (477kw@27psi). This is a built RB25 S1 stroked to a 2.8. Built and ported head with Kelford 272/262 cams. Precision 6466 Turbo. Tuner last year believed the power wall is a mix of RPM limitations (Hydro lifters/Limit set at 7600RPM) and fueling. With my new meth system, we're seeing zero knock now but it still won't go up.  What else can I do at this point? Here's my train of thought.  - It's clear from the dyno graph that I would easily make power to 8500+RPM but I'm limited to 7600RPM. I could risk increasing my limiter, but hydro lifters have me worried. What are my options here besides going NEO head or solid lifter conversion? I'm rocking a 1.05AR turbine on my 6466. Would dropping down to a .84 help shift that power down in anyway? - We're only seeing roughly a 30kw difference at the top end with VCT on or off. Is this normal? I want to confirm VCT is working properly. - Should I look into other cam options?  - Should I just keep increasing boost and see if she wakes up later on? I would expect to hit 600rwkw around 35psi with my 6466.
