True, no-one can tell me when any part will go bang, there is definitely plenty of load on the gearbox now but its not like I can drop the clutch at 7k, the power comes on smooth and the torque converter dampens the torque output. Perhaps it has some more in it? I would be happy with a safer 350kw by going to the GTX3076 and not maxing it.

jeez someones getting a little sensetive lol.

he doesnt know this, and yes i havnt read of one pooping after reaching its limits either, but i have also not seen or read about a VQ25DET running over 350kw at the wheels. have you?

and im pretty sure no tuner wants to 'pop' a customers car

No, not at all.... I just find it funny hearing that it will go pop running that kind of power when the only basis for comparison is either the RB25det or the VQ35de.

I know of none running 350kw at the wheels... but how many have tried? I've read about the 2.8L VQ25det in Japan running 315awkw but that is running a VQ35de crank and TEPS rods/pistons. I'd love to see and reckon it would be golden at around 350-360 with the 3076 as a reliable daily but it ain't my car nor money and I am only going on what I "feel" the engine could do. All speculation of course :)

Exaggerate much Aaron?

I just found out the VRS top end Nissan gasket kits are discontinued so I hope I can find a suitable gasket kit to do the job. The full gasket kits for a VQ25det through Nissan are nearly $600.

Ok, just for you Alex... :)

Aaron turned up today after he heard the new turbo arrived, he helped me rip his 3071 out and fit the new GTX3076.

I decided to fit the smaller 0.82 rear housing instead of the 1.06 Tial. I was pleasantly surprised at the improvement in response, it seems like it would actually boost off the line now with a little stall. The tune is set for Wednesday night so I will let you know how it pans out.

Sounds good. Great move on the housing. Will change it significantly I think. Video of dyno please!

Make sure get a really good accurate Indication of the speed, we didn't go past 6k because it just peeled over, but that was well off the speedo in 4th. I suspect it's good for 210-220 at your rev limit. Both my tachometer and speedo read significantly high.

Ok, will do.

Gladly the 18's put the informeter speed spot on, only the speedo in the dash is out 10k's at 100. I will try and get footage of that too during the run. What do you want displayed? Speed data will still only go to 180 but that will do as the dyno will be in wheel speed axis anyway.

On second thoughts, does the dyno just store your data from last time? If so, just use what you did your previous run on. You want to see the difference in response, and don't want to stuff it up by messing to much with the speed.

I'd love to see the 71v76 overlayed if possible.

Well, no great results yet, as soon as we strapped the car down to the dyno we realised the slight overheating issue I have been having for a while was actually a blown head gasket. We did a carbon test on the cooling system and got a positive result for exhaust contamination. It looks like either a head rebuild or another engine is going in. It's very similar symptoms to what Gleeson's car is having, perhaps its a common issue/fault? I may look into the pathfinder cooling mod after all Cam. :)

With the boost at around 19psi it was flowing over 330kw still so there is good power there, at least 350 comfortably, perhaps more. Now to find an engine. :(

Alex, the 76 graph looked almost identical to the 71 graph, just at lower boost. Transient response is much better though, looks like a good turbo match for the engine.

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
