What's the go with that? Never seen that personally.

It has to do with the drum speed and the speed of the car. The dyno plots the graph vs drum speed and then when you print it vs engine speed, apparently you can get a variation in the graph. Kinda like when you see lines move backwards on the dynographs we see here when the operator backs off.

Usually it has to do with automatic torque converters giving feedback when they lockup but considering this is a manual, I would say probably clutch slip , wheel spin, or some sort of RPM interference with the graph.

Dynojet reckon if you plotted the graph on HP vs drum speed, it would be a smooth line

MP1 was the metallic purple on R33 GTR's and limited edition GTSt's. MP2 was the metallic with flake on R34's and MP3 was the chameleon purple/orange colour on R34's.

The midnight purple paint codes are LP not MP lol LP1 is the r32 colour. Lp2 is r33 midnight purple. And lp3 is the crazy r34 charmeleon colour.

If it's getting kicked out of the States, what's the chances it's gonna be allowed here lol.

very good actually. the US rules have nothing to do with australia and it's perfectly legal to import, comply and register R33 GTRs in every state in australia...

It says 505 awhp in the link.

And very laggy too .. full boost over 5000?

What's with the dyno finishing at 7250

The US has had a witch hunt on for skylines for a while because most if not all came thru that shonky west coast outfit. Seemed like a typically disproportionate response. Some stuff, they don't care. Other stuff they make a federal case out of.

pity there's no indicative prices on there, I guess they will end up heading north to Canada. where they hopefully will have some suspension mods lol.

I doubt that car can be imported into Australia given the amount of mods on it, unless someone's willing to convert it back to stock to comply it and then bolt the mods back on.

Realistically speaking there's far better GTRs in Aus and Japan available, especially for the price, as you'll be paying American Wank Factor Tax (similar to Takumi Tax on AE86's) and Australian Import Taxes and Duties.

Also Canoodlians can only import cars that are 15 years or older, which means that GTR might be a bit hit or miss.

      Nismo GT Pro LSD configurations

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      No, you're wrong, and you've always been wrong about this. The Nismo has 2 sets of openings. One is a real 2-way, and the other is a 1-way. There is no 1.5-way possible with the ramps that they offer. A real 1.5-way does exist. That Cusco stuff I posted is a prime example. If the forward drive ramps are, say 55°, and the overrun ramps are, say, 30°, then you will get about half as much LSD effect on overrun than you do on drive. It is real, it realy works. OK, you're slightly right. The Nismo has 55° and 45° ramps on the 2-way, so it does offer less LSD effect on overrun. But, I think that just means that they've (probably) sensibly established that you do not want actually equal LSD effect on overrun. You just want "quite a lot, but not quite as much as the drive LSD effect".

      Nismo GT Pro LSD configurations

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Yea, that is what I was getting at in my ramblings too. The nismo one actually is a 1.5 way and a 1 way. They don't do a *2* way because a true *2* way would have equal ramp angles. Or is that a true 1.5 way? Realistically I think a "1.5 way" does not actually exist. A diff can either lock in two directions or one. It also doesn't help that a LOT of people in Australia speak about 1.5 way diffs are referring to their 1 way diff.

      Nismo GT Pro LSD configurations

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Well, the trouble with that ^^ is: The configuration shown is absolutely a 1-way, not a 1.5-way. There is no way that a 1.5-way can be said to offer LSD action only on acceleration. If Nismo cannot get that right, then it is impossible to believe their documentation. That ^ is not a 1.5 way setup. That is a 1-way.   And so now I have allowed all doubts to flourish and have gone back to look at the MotoIQ video. I originally made the mistake of believing him when he said "this is a 1.5-way" at the ~6:10 mark. Because what he did was take the gear assembly out of the 2-way opening and just rotate it one place to the left to drop it into the 1-way opening. When he dropped it in there, the cam was "backwards" compared to the correct orientation shown in all other photos of that config. The flat shold have been facing the 1° ramp side of the opening, not the 55° ramp side. And I thought, "gee that's cute", but I was concerned at the time, when he put the other ring back on, that the gap between the rings looked like it was wider then in the 2-way config. And then I said a lot of things in my long post on Tuesday that could only make sense if the guy from MotoIQ was correct about what he'd done. BUT... I have now done my homework. I grabbed a frame of the video with the 2-way config, and then grabbed another with the "1.5-way" config, snipped out the cam and opening of that frame and just pasted it direct on top of the 2-way config. I scaled it so that the triangular opening was almost exactly the same height in both. AND.... the gap between the plates is wider with the cam installed in the triangualr opening backwards. That is.... it cannot go together that way. There would be massive force on the plates all the time, if you could even reassemble it.  So, My statement on the matter? The Nismo diff is actually only a 2-way and 1-way. There is no 1.5-way option in it, regardless of what they say. Here's a photo of a real 1.5-way ramp opening from Cusco (along with the 1 way option). And the full set of 1 through 2 way options from their racing diff, which is not same-same as what we'd typically be using, but...the cams work the same. A little blurry, but it comes from this Cusco doc, which is quite helpful. AND.... Cusco do in fact do what I suggested would be sensible, which is to have rings that do 1 and 1.5, and 1.5 and 2. Separately.
