Maybe you could always hint that her tax return could have been used instead?

It's fantastic to see that some guys are pushing the boundaries on M35 mods. I would be keen to do all these mods as well if I didnt spend all my damn tax return on the GT-R, but mind you, over 300kw at all fours is so thrilling..

It makes you do the he he he.. ohhh.. every time you drive. i miss driving the gtr, i want my motor back!!

Looking at the dyno sheet, you seem to have a big flat spot around 3700-4500rpm - due to the big dip in boost pressure. If you were able to improve boost and maybe hold it at 18 you'd see a much better top end result. Not sure how possible that is.

In theory if the boost was set to 15psi and the boost controller was able to hold it there constant, you'd probably see the same kw figure.

yeh....the dyno guy wants me to put an electronic boost controller to fix the flat spot(the go on the dyno again :P ).......wont get me much more KW's top end but it will cure the dip and bring the boost on quicker

Craig, Ive got and electronic boost controller on mine and it still drops off boost a little in the top end I think its because the turbo is too small and doesnt flow enough at high rev's

That is more than likely because of the intercooler.....we were having to have a 10 minute break between each run to help the car cool down properly.....the electronic boost controller isn't going to get me anymore top end hp but it will help me control the dip and get a nice flat line.

P.S. The only reason I went to 18PSI(my turbo is good for 22) is because I wanted the magic 200kw's.....16PSI showed me 196.2KW....17psi 199.99KW....lol. If I do the right sized intercooler I might(might) get up to 210 or above.

just make sure the engine can take that sort of boost! dont wanna go bang! not yet anyway haha

Standard ECU will put the car into limp mode as soon as it detects 20PSI....motor can handle it :D ....and if it cannot......the next motor will lol.......there always next year tax return :P

what you gonna drive till next year if you pop it now :P

id really be interested to see how much boost they CAN safely take. if nissan havent changed much, then 20psi is probably possible assuming the tune is done well

Normally the boost will build up and then drop away slowly as you approach the red line. In this case the boost is dropping back sharply very early in the revs (around 3600rpm) which to me doesn't look normal. Maybe it is the turbo not being able to keep up but I'd say its the boost controller.

It will usually taper off a bit towards the top end. When I put the highflow on my last stagea it dropped by 2psi by the time it got to the red line, but it was a gradual decrease.

On the topic of coolers,

what would you guys want? something larger in size? or the stock size but a better core?

i'm guessing it will be a fairly custom job, what would be the easiest/best thing to do?

PWR custom "Aero 2".

I have only a rough design which should fit nicely (haven't made up a cardboard unit to see if it will fit).

Also need to have appropriate supports added... but for now this is what I am looking at

I want to go to 3" piping (thanks again Scotty for the BOV mounting intake pipe :P ) and have decided to make it the same depth as the OE unit as Iam trying to get as much volume as possible while keeping it as unobtrusive as I can.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
