I FINALLY got on the dyno today.

exhaust is restrictive as, but none the less very happy with the result(for now)

229awkw with 702 NM of torque..

exhaust will be changed soon so we'll see how it is in a month.

ill put up a dyno sheet tomorrow at work :D

Sounded good on the dyno, even better boosting up the road mate. lol

I bet you wish you had the tune before the cruise. :D

Did you do much to the trans apart from the shift kit from RVO? Did you get Cihan to mod the trans via EMU?

That wont be an option for a while I would say, he would have to rewire the auto ecu and hook the emanage up to it with the pwm output. (I just need him to regulate the lock up clutch for the torque converter by the looks of it) so you will be the test pilot if it works at all. Hopefully it will give us line pressure control dependant on boost or load instead of throttle position...

The RVO shift kit looks the go too, it held up well. :thumbsup:

lol even better pooping and intercooler pipe lol strange that

not only held up. its still very very smooth and doesnt feel harsh at all

Valve body is the goods. they did this good of a job on that, i cant actually wait to build the box with em and see how it goes! ..

some pics at the dyno.

looks alright in motion.

Decided last Friday I was tired of getting a massage from my car above 90km/h so got a wheel balance done.. Well overdue and soo much nicer to drive now.

I just have to go and pay extra for the massage now. ;)

Great Result Aaron.. is that your speed cut at 169km/h? You need an override. :)

yeh its speed cut. before it cuts it looks like it still wants to climb.

Kakimoto R should be here mid march :) should be good. then i wanna try and get the low throttle area concentrated on!

speed cut is apart of the factory ecu. even scotts is like this.

I need to get a cut defender, or an impul or Gzone or something.

kinda sucks

Bugger, I thought you were able to bypass it with the emanage! Wonder if Scott would make a bit more power up top without it too! There are heaps of speed cut defenders on YAJ for our cars, but they're not 'cheap' :( You may be able to snap one up 2nd hand I guess.

the only ones i found were the vq35 cut defenders. its not something i wanna fiddle with though, just with a defender, i'de rather get the ECU and be able to get rid of a few things in one hit.

the tunes done in 3rd gear, so not sure how much more we would make as its close to 6500rpm before speed cut. but yeh, I think it will make a little difference at least, but it will be much more noticable down low torque. which is what im looking for. corolla's are still ahead off the line :(

My car went to 192km/h on the dyno @ 7300 rpm. So that is 38km/h per 1000 rpm. That would mean you would be at about 6450rpm.

sounds about that i wasnt far off a guess. 50rpm is good :whistling:

but yeh once i get a new ecu, get rid of speed cut, lift the Rev limiter.

should be good. i know what scott means when he says "i want more powah" lol

I have seen the HKS one but it will cost nearly as much as a Gzone ecu remap...

The low down torque wont be improved much without a cable throttle, high stall converter and V manage. (or a manual box) Its all designed to limit the power at takeoff so no skids for us. :)

i thought the G-zone brings it down substantially..

Cihan reckons if you tapped the accelerator on Craigs it was going!

i dont want skids, otherwise i wouldve bought a skyline. BUT, i would like to be able to take off.

    • Hey keep the ideas coming, I'm always keen on projects! But, problem fixed!  I got a cheapie ozito scope from Bunnings and had a good look in and around the bearing and sensor hole. I couldn't see a smoking gun but the bearing looked a bit strange, especially when comparing with a new one. I thought the cover had come off the bearing magnets.  Sorry for pics of a screen, I didn't have an SD card.     Good thing I had the old one to inspect. So, given I'm like a pit crew with wheel bearings and luckily I had a spare bearing because I f**ked up my parts order, I decided to just smash it out. Got the old one out in about an hour. So much easier when the parts haven't had a chance to rust together yet. 😂 And, well, found the problem.    In the second pic at about the 8 o'clock position, you'll see what I think is the tip of the old sensor.  The new sensor has definitely been rubbing but it's all intact, just a little shiny so I'm hoping it's fine.  The car brakes perfectly now and no errors.  I think the job took about 2.5h in the end. 👍🏻 I really appreciate the help in here as usual. Thanks guys.
    • I was only looking because I saw some drops on the ground but it wasn't alot. Recently had it serviced will ask the mech to confirm. Find it strange that it looks standard though, can see in another photo of a random box 
    • So...not sure if you know if that has always been there or why you went looking. It could be old damage from a clutch explosion, or even just the gearbox got dropped somewhere along the line. Basically, you should seal it up to stop oil and dust getting into the bellhousing, but it doesn't matter too much and is not structural. I'd suggest something like a glob of JB Weld. BTW what gearbox oil are you running, I would guess the breather has been spewing it everywhere.
    • Hey Duncan thanks for your reply. Sorry mate I know the photos are shit.  Took another photo for reference. Seems the casing does have a hole in it looking on the net, fluid seeping out. Added a photo   
    • Very hard to make out what you mean, is it the squarish hole with redline shockproof (probably) under it? Is that pic from on top of the engine with the firewall to the left of pic and engine to the right? Either way, spray the area liberally with degreaser and try again, maybe circle the part you are worried about
