that is very laggy imo

it looks like Roys RB20 graph with a few more pony's up top

waiting for results with NVCS working

edit - that sounded a little harsh, 300rwkws from an L2 is great, but full boost at 5000rpm is not lol

LOL, too many results with no VCT :(

Interesting to note that the RB25, even with its extra displacement and half a point of compression doesn't really spool the TD06-20G 10cm as well as an RB20 running an 8cm housing. Will be interesting the difference the VCT makes. Would love to see the engine tuned on 98 instead of corn fuel, but if you have access to E85 and car is tuned for it understand why you wouldn't bother with 98.

I don't expect tuning along with E85 can see the result go from 17psi at 4,500rpm to the 21 psi at 4,000rpm of my graph above?!?! Then again I dont know dyno tricks 101 so perhaps there is something different to how the cars were loaded/run on the dyno. But my thing with no EBC and a simple but effective bleed valve which was holes in a bit of fuel line to bleed pressure gave me 21psi at 4,000rpm. Seems both engines are making ~130rwkws at 4,000rpm so the turbo isnt working as hard as you would expect at 4,000rpm on the RB25.

The above graph was not on my tuners dyno, and it was a comparo against one of the tuners cars other setups so it is at least a fair comparison to the other curve which was an RB20 running a HKS GT-RS.

Maybe the 10cm housing it a tad too big for the 20G compressor as the curve seems to have the BIG turbo shape of still climbing at the rev limit vs the bell curve look I would have expected of a 20G on an RB25.

Found it finally

yeah it should get close, was told it had a new clutch..big words like heavy duty and ceramic were used...

looks like they were just that... words :/

I hate the screamer already, when it first cracked I thought WTF!!!...some more work for you Scotty..lol

Thin red line is my old turbo, I have lost a little down low but it doesnt really feel any slower ..power ramps up so much nicer..

It Did hit 276kw at one point, holds boost nice too

Im just happy I can drive it again and as long as I dont mash the pedal too hard the clutch holds up ok :D

so got a reply back from them on ebay:

It still works as there is high % of Inconel.

If there is smoke, and then you need to start take care of this issue.

Gonna push for a replacement cause im not really interested in putting a timebomb back on...

All suppliers will cover their backside first, regardless of if they will warranty the issue or not.

You should ask him if the turbo gave up next week would he replace it then? And if the motor injested parts of smashed turbine wheel will he also warranty that?

Just point out there is a reasonaby high risk and the cracks were not there from new. That means they will only continue to spread.

Having worked with the person before I know he will accept the warranty claim after you make a large enough fuss about it.

Yeh, between United and Caltex it will be pretty easy for me to run E85 now. I am still going to just use Datalogit to switch back to ULP for daily duties and making sure I dont have E85 just sitting around in the tank and lines when I am away with work etc.

So can someone start to explain the difference between Artz's RB5-20G result and DVS JEZ's? Surely VCT and tweaking a tune doesnt make 1,000rpm difference in response???? I ask because I have read that on some setups E85 can make a setup spool a little slower....have not seen any cases of it yet and wondering if its a factor in this case

Yup :thumbsup:

yeah I got no idea, i dont quite understand VCT well enough to know how much difference it should make but it does seem a bit too much..

Jez is also top mount, which usually will helps spool a little earlier doesnt it...

You said that twice in the same post... You drunk? Lol.

I don't see how top mount would help response? Unless the manifold is a restriction, and as I was told in the other thread in no uncertain terms, the stock manifold is not a restriction at these sorts of power levels. So I can't see top mount being of any benefit performance wise.

Jez is fairly conservative when it comes to his tunes in general, leaving a big safety margin. I would say his is just not finished yet and is still in its build stages, once VCT is in and hes able to ramp boost on harder Im sure the results will reflect its completed state.

    • When you crank your car, and hit it with a timing light, can you see a steady crank timing?
    • Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).    
    • Car is on factory injectors/z32 maf/ q45 throttle body/ z32 ecu with nistune 
    • Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov
    • yeah I was shocked when I checked my spare OEM on and as below that's how they come from Nissan. (side interesting note new NEO gearbox and replacement park lack the brass bush on the tips and its just all alloy) unsure about damage to the box currently back at 1110 to be pulled down/inspected and selector fork replaced as he built it previously and given the never before seen failure on his billet forks he is replacing it under warranty. He said he has used always OEM the keyway tab without issue for years so it could be an unlucky coincidence. I did talk to him about the sharp corners and stress concentration too. Re: hard shifts i got 7+ years out of the OEM one and the fork itself failed not the keyway. so could be bad luck as I said or an age thing + heat cycles in box and during fabrication of billet?
