this post says its a standard bottom end, pistons in the previous pictures of the bottom end look fairly standard and arent dome tops as i would expect in a high comp bottom end build.

no signs of a VCT mod that i can see (your "b-cam" was discussed before)

pictures of the head look to me like it has had a reasonable whack of meat taken off the bottom of it. if the car is running corn juice or race fuel only im thinking even higher than 10:1 11-12?

if thats not it at the moment im not sure what else it could be to give that big of a change

It used to be a 26 head... ??

First and last hot lap for the new engine, seems i have a high flow #2 piston :(

It was a rubbish lap too, I left the buggered tyres from Targa on the rear, as it always used to push. But it appears i've fixed the front end grip.

Geebuz Benny that's rotten news buddy! WTF happened? :(

And yeah, if that speed is reading true, you've got an outright contendeer there! The gearing is way different to mine too. I'm going to assume there's a technical setup glitch there somewhere?

Top speed was a big surprise. It's done via GPS, and is was getting data off 10 sats at the time. I'm pretty comfident it's accurate, the rpm vs gear calculates pretty close, and the lap time would indicate a good top speed since i stuffed the first corner so bad.

i'll have the engine out and head off tonight, but it looks like it might have been a clogged injector, as we test spreyed it at the track, and it didn't mist properly. #1 injector looked heaps better. I've been over the logs, and lambda was .71 at full noise, fuel pressure was 65psi, EGT was ~750 deg, and I couldn't hear it pinging (i've watched the video heaps of times to listen to it too). So i'm confused on what caused it.

What gearing do you have Ben? mine is a std RB20 box, and a std diff gearset (4.3 i think). unless a 4.11 got in there before I got it

I have stock 20 box, and I assume stock gears (4:3?). Yours looks a lot like 32GTR gearing, so maybe 4:11.

There's no doubt your thing looks to have some serious stonk :) Shame about the pesky injector :(

1:1 4th gear at approx 7,800 rpm shift I get 190klm/h.

GPS so accurate hey? Fark me! I come on to the straight at PI at 170-80km/h and I hit 233km/h going downhill, on a very long straight with a short braking area as turn 1 is ~180k/h. Yet you hit the same speed on that lap! I need to pull my finger out and get the Cossie registered so the R32 can go corn juice and more boost :)

comparing data from targa to bens day at the track the extra torque is what helps it punch a whole thought the air. during targa with the not so grate engine it would just about go backwards in 5th. they seem to have a fair jump from 4th to 5th.

what ben has also not mentioned was the massive tail wind he had. haha

it wasnt a grate day for either of us. but my blown clutch is a lot easer than the engine swap, again!

The tail wind at symmons is worth some speed.

Got the engine open tonight. Looks like all the damage was caused by the tip of the spark plug that was missing. piston is full of dents the size of the missing piece, and the side is smashed out of the exhaust valve. Still need to work out why the tip came off

    • Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.
    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
