valid points. although i still undecided in terms of al vs ss lol

ahhh what to do what to do. !!!

i have to try and get the 2 sets of twins happening. theres a pic of a m35 on speedhunters with 2 twins! there must be a way. probably some stupid setup lol like the crx's you see with "twin exhausts" and when its cold only 1 zaust has condensation coming from it ahhaha

245 thats f**kin awesome power!

Also remember this is the RE dyno, well known to read 20 - 25kw under. I don't want to find the limit of the rods just yet. :)

Anyone know of another 4 wheel dyno around south east Melb?

Geez nice work scotty!! thats a great number. hows the transmission feeling?

no, its probably a RWD model and there is room for the rear can and all the piping down the other side of the tailshaft and transmission.

I just got back from RE, the turbo is definitely maxed now as the compressor cant supply enough air. He gained a heap of response by leaning the acceleration enrichment as it was dumping too much fuel.

Its very nice to drive now and even Cihan commented how well sorted it feels. He suggested a gt3076 .82 would be a better match for the mods and engine as it stands, im not sure the internals can handle the 340 odd it would then produce though.

show off :D

like the curve BTW!

I'll put mine on a Dyno as soon as I get it back on the road......lets see how much I can close the gap :D

Boys and there toys! The AR-X is always going to have slight disadvantage :)

The dyno runs were done with the torque converter locked, the gearbox ran smooth and changes are perfect. When Cihan got on the gas too fast it would kick down to third and spin the semi's on the rollers.

With the converter unlocked on the street it has instant boost which makes launching in first very snappy. Its quite refined to drive still and I have no problem letting the missus take it but it definitely spins up all 4 in the wet now.

Considering the small size rear on the turbo it's doing quite well I think.

+1. As usual, impressed by your pioneering innovation! You must be extremely pleased with the results, with 245 conservative AWKW's, your car must be quite a beast now. I can only dream of achieving something close. Nice to know it's possible. Champion effort!

I can tell you it was quite enjoyable to drive before this tune, can't wait to take it out now :P

As I said last night Scott, absolutely awesome result... can't help but think that perhaps you feel that your real power struggle is with those stroked VQ25det M35's in Japan.

So what are you doing with that GT35/40? :D

The core is stuffed, I was just going to use it to test fit for the gt30, or should I... ;)

    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
