Detonation on pump fuel would also depend on cam/headwork too. As larger duration camshafts would lower dynamic compression. You may find some cars that have been built very well may make a lot of power and only gain a rather small amount(in comparison to others) when switching to E85/C16. Your limiting factors would be the small exhaust housing/pump fuel/standard manifold.

Standard mani-mick o has made 340rwkw on e85 stock mani low mounted, mafia did 320rwkw low mount 3076 0.63a/r, theres been others in this power range with stock mani so I would tend to think its not as limiting as the pump fuel n housing

Yep Mafia had wmi, check out the new manifold thread- scottynm35 said someone just made 430rwkw throught a stock mani on an RB- hes a pretty respected fellow here and theres no reason to doubt his claims.

I was limited to 16psi and 278kw's on 98 with the GTX and 0.82rear, gained 42kw with E85 and the road suddenly became an ice skating ring,

Same here - Tuned by Jez, SR20 GTX3071 0.82 limited by knock on 287kw/18psi on 98 pootral.

Unfortunately its E85 if I want to go more.

Anyone tracking a car that close to the knock threshold on petrol needs to get ready for a new tractor engine imo. Considering I made nearly 60kw more on the same turbo with an auto, and was nowhere near the knock limit...

"Unfortunately?" what have you got against e85 anyway?

"Unfortunately" the stuff is in poor supply in NSW.

I kind of like being able to fill up when I need to, rather than have a car only capable of blasting around my own block and needing a trailer and jerry cans to go to wakefield (3 hours drive out of Sydney, where most of us live).

That attitude is probably why there are no pumps getting installed. :P

Ha. Troll.

You made 60kw more on what kind of boost? 26/28 pound wasn't it?

Jez knows I flog the car, and thus it is tuned accordingly.Wouldn't have lasted 2 full wakefield days if it was on the limit. I know its hard to remember a time before E85 for you, but people still did track cars back then :P

A lot of people wanting to see a 6466 on an RB26 dyno sheet... I will post this pic and vid but keep in mind it's not finished yet. The 6466 turbo is pretty awesome. We did an overlay of this turbo compared to the old setup (twin GT28-10's) and the car makes heaps more torque and power in the mid range compared to the twins.

583kw on 30psi

Precision 6466 with 0.84 rear

6 boost mani with 50mm turbosmart gate

280degree 10.8 Tomei cams, bigger valves, springs, retainers, porting etc

E98 Ethanol from Powerplus

Still running off wastegate spring pressure (no boost controller), hits 23psi at 4500rpm. Needs a larger gate because it starts to creep up slowly towards 30psi (hence the increasing torque curve). Holds 30psi after about 7000rpm til redline so we can probably run more boost after the ignition is upgraded (blows out spark above 30psi). Definitely more left in it.

That is a fantastic result! Very nice, thanks for sharing!

Cool. what rear housing are you running on the 25/30 and are you retaining VCT?

Very impressive results! Here is a progress picture of my 6466 mounted on my 30/25 motor. Motor was getting put back in today and I got a quick snap

    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff   
    • A few random issues have popped up since my last update. My WMI pressure sensor failed within about 10 minutes of it seeing liquid. It was a 20$ China special, so I'm not surprised. My name brand replacement should arrive today.  My power steering assist also decided to crap out last weekend. The usual, works for about 60 seconds after starting the car then I lose it. I dusted off my old copy of NDS and connected to the HICAS ECU. Code 4 for assist solenoid.... I tested the solenoid and it's fine.  I knew the day where my HICAS ecu would crap out would come, and I welcome it. It was the last HICAS part on the car that is now in the bin. I've ordered an SSR and I will control the power steering solenoid with my Haltech ecu. It will be nice to have proper speed referenced assist again after all these years.
