Holy cow 34 psi i could only dream to run that, then again i cant rebuild my own engines with labour free and parts only so why not try back then well done screamer diemar :D

Dave

fixed...i before e except after c :(

it was a cheap engine...couple of grand to build...it was such a good little unit...ive still got the block rods and pistons from it. It loved lots of boost and was a good mid to low 10 second racer. Jim at Croydon used to call it the freak engine cause it was so simple but powerful and most importantly efficient.

f*k ME !..so it's a pretty safe bet that no one has made more power than you with these turbo's & i assume you have the quickest and fastest times recorded with these also.

Congrats on pushing the shit out of it to see what was achievable.

My engine sounds just like your old engine you flogged for 3.5 years..pistons,rod bolts,n1 pump ,jun 268's & springs,cometic gasket etc..

I plan on putting a vipec & -5 turbos to see how much i can make.

Maybe i need to contact you when the time comes to leaning on it a little.

467 to be precise...done at Powercruise dyno comp...its on the dvd for all to see. VP 104 fuel was used and 34psi of boost...we actually removed the actuator lines and let the turbo's produce as much boost as they could muster...yes im crazy!! ( a few little dyno comp tricks were also used that netted nearly 20KW more than it had ever made before )

the set-up was fairly simple...Full HKS 2530 turbo kit...4 inch cooler...Power FC...stock plenum. The engine was one of my builds with all Nissan internals except pistons, rod bolts and cams. It was built tough and copped an absolute thrashing for 3.5years before the N1 oil pump expired at 9500rpm banging it off the limiter launching at WSID.

I remember the night we cracked 400 at the treads on pump fuel...we thought it could never be done. Then we put race fuel in it and made another 42KW!!...ahh those were the days. Now if i dont make over 600KW im disapointed... :D

    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go. 
    • More so GReddy oil relocation kits, sandwich plates, etc. all use 10AN fittings. And same, I've only used 10AN and my car sees track work (circuit, doing laps, not 10 sec squirt business).
