Oh also what was your rim and tyre size?

If anyone is interested this is how I convert, I'll assume the nismo is 4.4

KM/H x (1000/60)

This gives your speed in meters per minute.

pi x Diameter (in metres)

This will give you the cirucumference of your wheel in metres.

Speed / Circumference

This gives how many rpm of wheel per minute.

Then divide by diff ratio if in 4th.

Would 18s make it better or worse? Sorry full noob at this shit

I just re did it with 240x40x18 and it is 3955 vs 4010rpm for 110kph

Use these websites

http://www.rkm.com.au/calculators/calculator-circle-sphere.html

another calc

RPM = (diff ratio * (mph * 88)) / (tire circumfrance in inches / 12) * transmission 4th ratio

Just measured on my boost controller and powerfc rpm. Got 3410rpm and 3439rpm hitting 18psi in 4th. Dunno how accurate that is tho lol

Pretty damn accurate I'd say as it is using the CAS and it is low rpm (at high rpm the CAS signal can get inccurate in some cars).

Could you try 2nd gear just out of curiosity? as that is what I think most people are interested in.

Yea I'll give it a squirt tomorrow night haha

If its making that much boost in fourth its not really going to be a whole lot different in second. If anything it wont make full boost as the motor wont have the same ammount of load on it. Its always harder to get full boost in the lower gears.

I would be pretty happy with that sort of response. I know the T78 on our car makes full boost (22-23psi) by about 4500rpm and i built an R32 GTR a few years back that made about 5 psi of boost with a T78 at 2500rpm, full boost (again 22-23psi) by no later than 4000rpm. It was a pretty insane GTR to be honest and a bit of a freak engine.

    • Was the failed sensor by any chance this one? Did it just fail or start pissing on itself? I ordered one too, for fuel pressure monitoring, and now I am hesitant to put it in, hehe. Where did you find a brand one?
    • You'd be insane, when a brand new 8HP is ~$4k, and all the work to put a 6 in would cost the same as an 8 and the 8 is a completely established swap. If you think that getting a cheap Falcon box is going to make it a cost effective exercise, then you're not accounting for the extra $10-15k that the task will consume.
    • any further information on this? also interested in putting a zf6 in behind a rb30!
    • They're all horrible. X-Trails have had a nasty sounding 4cyl since forever, no matter what engine family it came from. The CVTs only made that worse. Then the whole Renault thing only made every Nissan that was contaminated by them even worse again. The only fun I've had in a X-Trail was having it blown sideways across a frozen Minnesota highway at 90 mph trying to make it to the airport to get out of the frozen hellhole of Hoth. Nearly died. Was great fun.
    • Alrighty, I'll have to grab a couple pics and type out something soon in another post. I haven't driven a modern X no, this would be the first one really. Yeah the rental boxes are always cheap as chips right? So I'd doubt that anyone was handing out GTs to go and abuse. But I s'pose I could be wrong for sure. New cars these days though? Pretty unimpressed with what I see now; 20 years and all that, like you said. It just kind of worked out to have these two cars now. I'm pretty pleased with that, don't need much else. I'm sure you lads are right about the temps and for sure, you wouldn't have much time to drive 'em down there if you all were like me. I do hate sweating all over the seats though😆
