Dyno's don't read time, they read rpm vs power (or variants of that). You can see the power under the curve, but you can't really tell the actual response time of the setup.

Good point if you are locked into rpm.

Surely you could set up the bottom axis as time though? I guess some of the old software is probably limiting but it would be a very simple calculation for the people who make it.

Here is my little story. I have been wondering the same thing the last 6 months or so. This is what I have found. I bought my gtr with plain bearing -5's. Now with Cams, 10.25 @ 292 Good after mar

Did you put your car on a 4wd dyno? That usually shows a lower figure than in 2wd mode. I can understand your frustration but let me tell you this, don't take dyno figures as gospel, they are a tunin

Nothing I haven't told him on 3 occasions now since Aug 2010, even earlier it think. So basically what you are telling us is that 6 months down the track. You haven't taken it to the track yet? O

oh, yes those pics on RHD are the correct HKS front pipes. one thing to note, they are quoting ID as 70mmX2 and single 85mm. most other places seem to quote OD which makes these approx 75mm X2 and 90mm single when comparing to other exhausts. I'll still measure mine this weekend, but those are the ones. best front pipes I've ever seen. have flex joint, have very, very nice welding, flanges welded on the inside, good quality stainless, extra thick flanges to help stop distortion and etc etc. they are the goods.

Baron,

Just bought a set of front pipes (possibly Top secret drag)

They are 75mm ID into over 100mm ID merge, Coupling this with a pair of Midori Dumps, would this not be a better front front half for a GT-R ?

What an interesting time for this thread to get bumped to the top, only a couple of days before someone is doing -5's on a stroker motor. That timing is such a coincidence its not even funny

Haha. Interested in a set of GT RS's? Going cheap :thumbsup:

Haha,

Thanks for the offer but I'm looking at the same thing as you (-5's) But I only have a little 2.64 odd Litre to play with unlike you big Forklift boys :D

Waiting for my 044's to show so I can finish the fuel system !!!

3.0>2.8.

That is all.

haha paul - were u really that impressed with my rb2630 :)

i now have an rb26 & i personally wouldn't do another rb2630, the car becomes a 'chop shop' & besides that, rb26 revs much nicer & howls when compared to the 3ltr

i also think though, either stick with the rb26 OR if u want larger displacement go straight to a 3ltr or larger :)

Is that like 32>33?

Yeah right! :nyaanyaa:

I have said it before and I will say it again.... After driving your car (and I have since driven Steveo's) you would be silly NOT to go that way. They rev, they do everything a 26 based block does... just better. You only have to butcher the car if you have a 32... the other two is no real issue.

I will say this though... if you have the engine out and WANT to keep the original block you have rocks in your head by staying the standard stroke crank. 77.7 mm at the very minimum. It makes the car so much nicer to drive!

Something I do notice is that not alot of people take advantage of the 26 bore stroke ratio, so realistically for alot of people going the 3.0 litre for lazier power is indeed a good option, particularly if you are beginning a rebuild.

There are lots and lots of very fast 2.6 litre cars though, some of the fastest in the world even.

Racecar is different. For the street a nice fat twist curve rules... Can't always have 5k + on board.

      R34 gtt rb25det neo timing belt kit

      By drifter17a · Posted

      So now doing the change and first time dealing with rb so little nervous giving engine power and potential for screwing it up When you align all marks and then remove crank bolt, timing move little I assume you can put the bolt back in once you have removed the pully to get timing to where you want?   here is pic of my both intake and exchust cam aligned, depending on angle you look they seem to be either aligned or a half tooth or so out. Any thoughts? Should you angle your face and look at each mark that way as if looking straight rather than from above as it can be misleading   <a href="https://ibb.co/ZpnhcvbF"><img src="https://i.ibb.co/HfWrGR9b/IMG-4447.jpg" alt="IMG-4447" border="0"></a> <a href="https://ibb.co/4wm2wn4q"><img src="https://i.ibb.co/JWBqWwr1/IMG-4445.jpg" alt="IMG-4445" border="0"></a>   https://ibb.co/ZpnhcvbF https://ibb.co/4wm2wn4q

      braided lines for the turbos

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy Haven't really thought of that yet, but you are right. If the hose was damaged it should be absolutely pissing by now. I'll put some heat sleeve around it for good measure since I'm already removing the line anyway.  Maybe I'll put on some of the stock hardlines if I ever fully remove the turbos again. Maybe when T51R modding the compressor housings? Might be a fun mod on GT28s for that "fake single turbo" effect.

      Unpeeling the Orange

      Update 1: I did some work on the car already before finalizing this post and my "issues" list. I dropped the Tomei exhaust in favor of the HKS Hi Power Silent. Sounds nice and I can actually hear myself think now. Also gives me a realistic chance to legally drive without silencer inserts. A bit of cheating was necessary to still be able to mount the Top Secret style diffuser. Some malusage of washers and a bit of "convincing" toward the brackets and exhaust hanger seemed to do the trick. The shaky steering wheel has been resolved as various suspension components were worn, like sway bar bushings and link bars. Most notably the two steering tie rod ends. Had some trouble finding bushings because my sway bars are not OEM thickness, 23.x up front and 27 rear. But non adjustable, so no aftermarket I suppose. Maybe they are nismo units? Turbo oil drain hoses were definitely still the originals and are new now. Wasn't the cause of the turbo oil leak sadly. Currently removing the rear turbo because of it, I suspect the braided oil feed line is the culprit. This issue needs to be dealt with so I can work towards actually getting the turbo setup legal and inspected. Two new issues to add to the list as well. Rear Main seal is probably leaking. Time will show how bad it is, I don't really want to drop the gearbox right now just for the stupid seal. Could fix a few other things in one go once I do that. Front right driveshaft grease is going past the cv boot, so at some point I'll fix that too.

      By Kapr · Posted

      Ok so no 4cyl clutch... Yeah it is a factory manual. So if iam correct i need clutch and flywheel too? I can use something that suits something like R32 GTST?   EDIT: https://www.ebay.com/itm/224291042776 Is this ok?   EDIT2: i maybe forget to mention this(dk how important it is) but the trans will be behind RB25DET NEO(iam doing swap) It will be there for a little while. Iam planing to do bigbox or BMW tranny..

      You're probably right about that one. Thanks for your suggestions, I hope I don't need a new 3rd brake light. Although wiring issues might arguably be worse. Right now I'm in the midst of a turbo removal because of my oil leak, other problems are going to have to wait for now.
