Thanks, but I'm well aware that you've previously posted those results, not really any need for name calling, most of us are adults here

You are the one that name called, and I wasn't saying that was the differences so much as saying you could safely expect at least that much...

My post generally stated disbelief at the disparity between roller and hub dynos. 70KW is substantial figure in anyone's language, hence "Nigga please"

My comments weren't aimed at anyone in particular, just a general statement but when simonR32 decided to call me a dickhead, as if I had not read the thread and seen the results posted about, which I clearly had considering they were literally 2 posts above mine, what do you expect me to say ?

I wasn't commenting on what you said at all Lithium but rather generally about SimonR32's post.

as for the dig about dyno figures in perth, the fact that I seem to have touched a nerve speaks volumes, do a forum search and see what comes up, obviously I'm not the only one to make this sort of comment. (Queue 900 people from perth having a sook/teary about this and that dyno being the worlds most accurate"

In the end it comes down to the fact that when I see something I think is a bit odd, I'm going to call it straight up.

This isn't netball, like I said we are all big boys and manners cost nothing, so what's the problem.

I didn't call you a dickhead. I commented that you made yourself look like a dickhead which I think is unusual for you (after reading posts you have made in the past). If I wanted to call you a dickhead I would have, I didn't and I chose my words wisely, so please read it in context.

It must be the air in wa that makes the dynos read high because they are the same dynos with the same calibration and corrections :-)

It's ok though, my shitty 480rwhp seems to keep a few 700rwhp Eastern states GTR's honest :-p

70kw is a bit much for me I think but between two dynos even with the same corrections anything is possible.

I probably bit a little bit hard over nothing so I'm just willing to chalk this up to miss-communication

and no chance mate, we build our tracks downhill over here :rofl:

I don't really have anything else to add so here is a sweet Miami Vice picture.

It nearly runs a 10 and two different machines measure its output no doubt on different algorithms and different variables.

Enough sooking, is don is good.

On a plus note.....

My 8374 TS IWG should be shipped this month, So early next month it should be in my hot little hands!! WOOHOO can't wait!!:worship::cheers:

I am getting a Manifold made here for it, So there will be a little wait for that.....I would have loved a Full-Race one, They are a work of art....But it starts to add up getting one from the other side of the world.

  • 2 weeks later...
  • 3 weeks later...

dont know if anyone can confirm this.

But i have been told by a large Aus supplier that BW may be dropping the whole EFR range due to 'internal problems" in that side of the business.

apparently they have spent so much money on R&D , marketing etc and has cost BW lots of money. and the big bosses at BW may scap the whole thing.

i know i ordered a turbo in march this year went back to supplier yesterday and they still cant tell me when one is arriving,

Given the amount of secrecy that seems to follow them I'm surprised such information would have leaked. I mean people won't even say a single turbo shat itself. SIF a full production shut down would get out.

I heard that they were having trouble with there suppliers manufacturing quality control and have had to find a new supplier. If this is correct, that would take a fair while.

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
