Sydneykid, have you ever tested a 370cc injector at 58psi?

Also, I realise that bosch pumps are rated at 75psi, but would mounting the pump inline after a surge tank have any bearing on the max flow potential, also have you ever tested a bosch pump to see if it flows what it is rated at?

I wouldnt put it past bosch to rate pumps on the lean side, as if someone took there figures and then the pump didnt match they would probably have good grounds for a legal suit.

might be interesting if the increase flow on injectors varied exponentially instead of linearly as pressure increased. this wouldnt be so evident at smaller increases in fuel pressure - might go further to explaining the seemingly impossible.

Just guessing, but there must be a reasonable explanation for this, and I think its a bit of a cop out to just say the dyno is reading high.

Steve, I don't mind them thinking the dyno reads high, I know better, and at Perth Autosalon I'm sure it will read higher than SST's dyno. Either way, as I said before, it's not the power which is the interesting factor, it's that fact that it's stock internals, stock injectors and stock cams:D

That is fair enough; in that case did you drive your car on the street at that power level (if yes did it feel like a 120+ mph car) or did you get that reading as a one of on the dyno to see what could be had...?

What sort of power did you have on the 13.5@104mph run and was it on the same dyno...?

GTST V spec, nice figures. The most i could make on stock injectors was 387rwhp. By going to 660cc injectors my power increased to 421rwhp. I know a car with same set up as you making 402rwhp on 12psi. But the key is, "GAS". Im sorry but i dont think you made those figures with out nitrous. If you did then f**k me!!

When you do let us know. :D

The only thing that comes across as impossible is achieving that power with the stock injectors, especially at %80 duty cycle. Maybe you are running more pressure than you know through the fuel reg.

The bottomline is that your setup at that power level could not be considered as conservative and safe and even though it is achievable, it's advisable to upgrade the injectors and internals. I am linking your thread with the US mentality of running 9's with a stock bottom end in a Supra.:D

Emre, I plan on doing internals, and I'm only using this power for a dyno shootout until I get them in, on the road it's a more convervative 360rwhp:D Maybe the fuel reg is reading wrong, I can put another meter on to check though.

RNS11Z, NOS is for loosers, and I sure as hell don't have it, I can send you a pic of my engine bay if you want to look for the NOS lines:bahaha:

Hi guys, the Bosch fuel pump data follows;

Bosch 910 pump is 200 litres per hour and supports 450 bhp at 73.5 PSI

Bosch 975 pump is 228 litres per hour and supports 500 bhp at 73.5 PSI

Bosch 984 pump is 228 litres per hour and supports 500 bhp at 73.5 PSI

Bosch 044 pump is 330 litres per hour and supports 730 bhp at 73.5 PSI

Bosch 040 pump is 235 litres per hour and supports 520 bhp at 73.5 PSI

Sorry maybe I need to restate something I posted earlier, it was late, I was tired etc.

Increasing the flow potential of the fuel pump does not increase the flow of the injectors. The only thing that increases the flow of the injectors is increasing the fuel pressure at the injector ie; in the fuel rail.

There is one exception, that is when the flow rate of the injectors is greater than the flow rate of the pump. I have also seen one case where the fuel pressure regulator was too small to return the excess fuel to the tank.

Hi Steve you asked, "have you ever tested a 370cc injector at 58psi?"

That's a bit tricky, the Bosch pumps are rated to 73.5 psi, so that would only leave 15.5 psi (1.05 bar) for boost. I have found that "overdriving" an injector past 110% of its rated pressure (and therefore flow) makes the results unreliable/inconsistent. The solenoids and springs have trouble closing the injector against more than that sort of pressure. Plus it puts huge strain on the standard pipes, hoses and clamps. So I simply don't do it.

As for the flow rating, I have only tesed an 044 and it flowed 2.75 litres in 30 seconds, which was exactly its 330 lph rating.

Hope that helps

I did the 13.5@104 with about 260rwhp.

I've done 118mph with the 360rwhp I use on the street, and that's with bald tyres, so I'm confident I'll get a decent mph:D

hahaha big difference between doing a 118mph and getting the power down to get a decent enough 60ft time to be able to do 118mph,

When are the next drags on as it will prove what you've got once and for all, time slips don't lie :D

sydneykid, could you explain what you said about an RB25 being 90% efficient, and an F1 being 97.2% efficient? from where are these values taken? I guessing not from the chemical energy of petrol to flywheel power. From the little amount of mechanical eng. that i studied i was under the impression a petrol car, overall, was about 30% efficient

    • 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.
