If i can find a cheap pair of -5 or -7 for now i'll use them and keep the RS's for when i do the 2.9. I just didnt wanna chuck the stockies on and and blow a motor and turbo at the same time.

Funny enough just got off the dyno today after fitting M&W CDI unit.

Anyway, the graph R31Nismoid was referring to was up to:

One curve was GT-RS twins, 137mm thick Apexi drag intercooler and Greddy plenum, the other was 2860-5 twins, 100mm HKS cooler and Nismo plenum. I'll let you work out which is which.

The graph below is the same setup, but now on E85 and M&W CDI as fitted today:

PS - I like E85 :D

$2600 new from GCG -10% If your a club member, Inc GST.

Gav, what sort of boost were you shoving down the throat of your engine? There will be another comparison soon between RS's and 5's. :D

Still running 24psi. The ethanol just seems to accept more and more timing. The big fat spark from the CDI helps the tune significantly in the mid range also.

Huge... 40hp? It is a good improvement; you must be easily excitable :)

40rwhp more = 30rwkw more

You don't get that kinda gain dollar for dollar as easily hehe, very excited. You'd feel that driving around for sure, plus the pickup you'd think would be quicker too.

At the graphs... maybe you should look again.

It is a "standard" gain/improvement from switching fuels.

Check the GT-RS to -5 comparison on the top graph, some of the comments are aimed at that and others at the fuel change, tho the comments havent been clear on which they're referring to.

Mike, most are referring to the difference from gt-rs to -5 results on that one graph as MrStabby stated. That one is an impressive difference. The gain from fuel change is quite normal.

Ahhh, noted :)

    • Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.  
    • Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?
    • Hey mate,  I have a set, one is slightly damaged but wont be noticable once installed.  Shoot me a message if your still after them 
    • I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
