Too bad you couldn't go for a quick spin last night mate, would have been interesting to compare it now with how it was a month ago.

As an aside, just for shits and giggles, next time you get on a dyno try dropping the correction by another 20%. I'm sure that will be useful for you to compare the progress any changes have made...

Out of interest, what is the top power figure for a GT3071 on an RB25, on E85?

You ran out of flow at 341kw, on an auto gearbox, right?

Not sure, I think its good for over 360 on a good setup but how often do you see the coin spent? Stock cams, manifolds and internal gates just don't cut it.

good stuff scott im glad to hear it all went well you should seriously get down to calder/heathcote and see if you can improve on your time

I will come and keep you company one cold Calder night. When is the next one?

I will need another sucker to sit in the stands, take video and freeze to death. Any takers?

If I could get to mine easily I would do it on my car but there is no room on my setup.

I lol'd. Rb people don't know about tight spaces and packaging :P

Mainly what I wanted to know is does the v6 have any advance over the rbs? Saw a rb25 with e85 and 26 psi go for 330kw at unigroup in the 3071 thread. I think that was a pretty good set up from what people were saying. Comparable result?

You can lol but then you haven't seen a HKS low mount cast manifold with a GT30 based turbo on it which requires a shave of the engine mount (due to the lack of room) but to add insult to injury I have an ex-S1 Stagea RB25 in the R33 and the oil drain sits higher than the original block which means that there is almost no way to reconnect the drain.

I wouldn't never complain about space constraints otherwise, certainly compared to the tight packaging on VQ powered stageas.

The turbo was maxed out in Mick's case and seemingly on Scotty's at similar power levels so dyno-wise I think the results were comparable. To me it indicated that the compressors were maxed out. Mick's setup on E85 is a peach.

My GT3076 was stronger everywhere compared to Mick's GTX3071 on 98 ron both tuned at Unigroup which is why I still think the extra coin required for a GTX turbo doesn't get you ahead of what was already available. I am pretty sure my GT3040 would perform line ball with a GTX3076. The 82mm comp was limited on 98ron but with E85 it would make a low budget +350rwkw.

Mmm, sounds fun. Lots of cut knuckles all round.

Scotty, I guess we will see the difference in your mph when you get it down the track again.

My 3037 is stronger nowhere.... Lol, actually, might be winning from 2500 to 3000 cause I have boost! But thats about it!

ive entered for saturday scott

You can pre-book Calder?

Im keen to see the mph too, and if I can pre spool this setup.

I noticed there was a 3037 result of 360kw in RB land the other day but that was with the t3 rear, not sure what your housing is yet, perhaps it would make around the same being external gate also?

Isn't Micks still internal gate on stock manifold though..stick it on a 6boob with ex gate and she could pump quite a bit more..350 maybe..

I'm rather surpised Scotts made the power it did with the auto and all..I dont know if its the larger rear housing and gate or just a dyno variance but the figure hes got now is what i would of expected from the 3071...and the figure he had before is what it should have now...

What difference does the manifold make when the compressor is maxed? I would expect it to come on earlier and hold boost better but peak power won't change.

We could sit here and wonder whether the stock manifold maxed out but then we saw a similar number on Scotty's car with a larger turbine housing.

Im not certain the compressor is maxed and that a decent manifold could quite easily allow for a little extra up top..How many 3076s make 360kw with a stock manifold on RBs, I cant think of any off hand, but there are plenty on top mounts...

So you think a larger turbine on Micks would have much effect...?

A larger turbine would make it more docile everywhere and I don't think he would make any more power on E85. On 98ron for sure he would make more up top but suffer down low. When it stops making power and isn't pinging it is probably out of flow but this is just and opinion and we will need more results to know definitively.

I don't know many RB25's with GT3076 and 360rwkw but most would change the manifold when thinking about going over 300rwkw as a matter of course....then again most cars I know are run on 98ron still due to a lack of availability of E85 around here.

It will be interesting to ask a few tuners what the max of the stock manifold is with E85.

'The compressor is maxed' equates to 'The compressor cant flow any more air in the current configuration without creating excessive heat causing loss of power.'

I think with an uncompromised setup using 3 inch short cooler pipes, the best flowing cooler around with water spray, 5 inch side pipe, screamer, ported with cams, manifold etc the 3071 may hit 400 perhaps. In the real world we are compromised obviously, noise and height restrictions, lag worries, restrictive intakes, each step back you lose power but it's a road car at the end of the day.

I like that every person craves a different setup, each build I am part of requires custom design and r+d and trialling new ideas will always be beneficial even if there are no gains.

Speaking of new ideas, this is the VQ block cooler I designed. It is similar to the 'Pathfinder" cooling bypass mod but modified to suit an easy install and fitment to any VQ block. I have been testing it out with surprising results, hopefully the logging data will show a similar lowering of temps. The main benefit of this being easy cooing system bleeding which was the main thing I was after, the thread will attach to a ball valve, to which a funnel could be added for easy filling and air purge. These cars are a pita to bleed stock and I wonder if my head gasket wouldn't have failed if this was in place oem.

I haven't worked out a final cost for it yet, I will start a thread on it soon if anyone is interested. :)

Nice work mate; got to be happy when your engineering nets a good result.

I would like to see this get off the ground; it would be worthwhile for no other reason than simplifying the cooling system bleed procedure. If it improves cooling system efficiency; even better.

    • When I said "wiring diagram", I meant the car's wiring diagram. You need to understand how and when 12V appears on certain wires/terminals, when 0V is allowed to appear on certain wires/terminals (which is the difference between supply side switching, and earth side switching), for the way that the car is supposed to work without the immobiliser. Then you start looking for those voltages in the appropriate places at the appropriate times (ie, relay terminals, ECU terminals, fuel pump terminals, at different ignition switch positions, and at times such as "immediately after switching to ON" and "say, 5-10s after switching to ON". You will find that you are not getting what you need when and where you need it, and because you understand what you need and when, from working through the wiring diagram, you can then likely work out why you're not getting it. And that will lead you to the mess that has been made of the associated wires around the immobiliser. But seriously, there is no way that we will be able to find or lead you to the fault from here. You will have to do it at the car, because it will be something f**ked up, and there are a near infinite number of ways for it to be f**ked up. The wiring diagram will give you wire colours and pin numbers and so you can do continuity testing and voltage/time probing and start to work out what is right and what is wrong. I can only close my eyes and imagine a rat's nest of wiring under the dash. You can actually see and touch it.
    • So I found this: https://www.efihardware.com/temperature-sensor-voltage-calculator I didn't know what the pullup resistor is. So I thought if I used my table of known values I could estimate it by putting a value into the pullup resistor, and this should line up with the voltages I had measured. Eventually I got this table out of it by using 210ohms as the pullup resistor. 180C 0.232V - Predicted 175C 0.254V - Predicted 170C 0.278V - Predicted 165C 0.305V - Predicted 160C 0.336V - Predicted 155C 0.369V - Predicted 150C 0.407V - Predicted 145C 0.448V - Predicted 140C 0.494V - Predicted 135C 0.545V - Predicted 130C 0.603V - Predicted 125C 0.668V - Predicted 120C 0.740V - Predicted 115C 0.817V - Predicted 110C 0.914V - Predicted 105C 1.023V - Predicted 100C 1.15V 90C 1.42V - Predicted 85C 1.59V 80C 1.74V 75C 1.94V 70C 2.10V 65C 2.33V 60C 2.56V 58C 2.68V 57C 2.70V 56C 2.74V 55C 2.78V 54C 2.80V 50C 2.98V 49C 3.06V 47C 3.18V 45C 3.23V 43C 3.36V 40C 3.51V 37C 3.67V 35C 3.75V 30C 4.00V As before, the formula in HPTuners is here: https://www.hptuners.com/documentation/files/VCM-Scanner/Content/vcm_scanner/defining_a_transform.htm?Highlight=defining a transform Specifically: In my case I used 50C and 150C, given the sensor is supposedly for that. Input 1 = 2.98V Output 1 = 50C Input 2 = 0.407V Output 2 = 150C (0.407-2.98) / (150-50) -2.573/100 = -0.02573 2.98/-0.02573 + 47.045 = 50 So the corresponding formula should be: (Input / -0.02573) + 47.045 = Output.   If someone can confirm my math it'd be great. Supposedly you can pick any two pairs of the data to make this formula.
    • Well this shows me the fuel pump relay is inside the base of the drivers A Pillar, and goes into the main power wire, and it connects to the ignition. The alarm is.... in the base of the drivers A Pillar. The issue is that I'm not getting 12v to the pump at ignition which tells me that relay isn't being triggered. AVS told me the immobiliser should be open until the ignition is active. So once ignition is active, the immobiliser relay should be telling that fuel pump relay to close which completes the circuit. But I'm not getting voltage at the relay in the rear triggered by the ECU, which leaves me back at the same assumption that that relay was never connected into the immobiliser. This is what I'm trying to verify, that my assumption is the most likely scenario and I'll go back to the alarm tech yet again that he needs to fix his work.      Here is the alarms wiring diagram, so my assumption is IM3A, IM3B, or both, aren't connected or improper. But this is all sealed up, with black wiring, and loomed
