Joe you'll see now the kit is finished, heaps of GTR's will be getting them there. I know of one Melbourne workshop getting to play with one soon too - so it's not just Sydney siders who are lucky with this bit of gear.

From 290 to 400? Yeah, hold-the-fu(k-on, thats a big jump :D

Sorta disappointing in a way lol wouldn't have minded being one of only a few that had this kit

I spose it is like anything though.

This kit has been in the pipeline for a while now. I am not sure how long, but Yavuz mentioned it when I jumped across to E85 in Nov last year. It has been something like 3 years of Testing and tuning.

Well if it's any comfort, not everyone will be able to afford it. There's always the "close enough is good enough" crowd.

Any reason still 2.6L and not going stroker?

The day I swapped to E85 it was the same time he said the design is starting. So yeah, quite a while!! Thats why I used the Autronic one because this kit was so far off.....as you know thats another story now...

Just to back this up - I put on the Ross Trigger kit a few weeks back also. Although mine it a 12 tooth setup - I am running Motec and logged exactly the same kind of improvement. Used to get up to 500rpm jitter above 5500rpm.. now its lucky if it jitters more than 30rpm.

We also noticed immediately a better/smoother idle. And that was the only change made.

For the CAS, we just replaced the trigger wheel for one that has 1 sync slot.

Obviously doing crank triggers is nothing new, but its nice to have an off the shelf kit made rather than having to fab something up yourself.

Yea I first heard about it about a year ago as well, but ur right I don't think many people will be spending the extra cash on some thing that isn't really necessary. Especially since its a modification for more "highly tuned" cars...

I ended up buyin an engine that had already been built and I was happy with the 2.6 at that point in time ( it was a good price as well)

Though when I do eventually kill the engine "will not if" I'll be using a 2.8 minimum

Seems to be the common trend at the moment

I can completely understand when "Gav" (a WA forum member with a very similar setup) said "I have a choice of 2 gear's in any corner on the track".

...depending on which corner he is talking about.. he could mean 1st and reverse... eh Gav. ;)

(and yes, I do hope he reads this..)

Any details?

90mm Sleeved block + 3.4 crank would be interesting

somebody with more money than me should do it...

Steve you know 3.0 isnt enough right :whistling:

Na couldn't get any more info on it.. Apparently it's got a fair bit more displacement then the 34 though

Not sure how much larger u could get it lol

That's the thing. Isn't "really necessary". Timing, combined with fuel is prob the most important things on a highly tuned car. If there is no consistancy in either of those, you really are risking that big buck bottom end.

bonus that it's a one off purchase that wont need replacement

so worst comes to worst and u wreck an engine you can just throw it on the new engine and away u go

300rwkw plus is where the the CAS problems tend to start... And there's alot more 300kw+ cars starting to get around

Yer, yer, yer.......anyway to the OP - if you get to a stage where the coilpacks or sparkplugs are givving hiccups on E85 I can't say enough good things about the Billet Performance CDI kit. This really lets you get the best out of the E85 with regards to aggressive fueling and timing in the mid range.

    • Wow guys thank you very much for the HUGE info :-) @GTSBoy I have like 30 minutes if test drive with that car/engine and it not stalled once. IMO it ran very smooth so i guess it was not that bad(but asi i said it is stock) That atmo BoV is worse than no BoV or in my case or it is/will be the same? Cuz frankly i rather have little whooosh sound than that sututu 馃槃 But either way the less harmfull for engine/turbo the better(if the stock is not an option right away) Yeah about that rebuild i talk with guy who will be doing swap and custom pipes...i think i can get stock BoV or get aftermarket which will function the same. Yeah i looked at that R35 option and i try ask my mechanic more about that if he knows. The engine has stock ECU but i can get Nistune for it. On that stock it runs quite well...but i have limited time with it so rly dont know. Ecumaster is this https://www.ecumaster.com/  It is not some dodgy backyard ECU :-)  @MBS206 Yeah but it will be better to have Nistune than the completely stock ECU no? About that "same" atmo/no BoV. The drivebility would be the same? I dont know but i kinda guess that amto BoV would cause more problems than no BoV in my case? Or is the same? You just "change" one sound for the other? Yeah i read many many many topic about hurting the turbo. But no one know anybody that would 100% tell that his turbo/engine blows/get damaged by not running BoV. Of course turbo would be little happier IMO if it has BoV ..but if you do not trash i think i should be good. And as you can see iam already trying to get this right...just working what i have right now :-) Yeah iam kinda the same...i dont want nothing loud and frankly iam not liking that sututu noise that much 馃槃 i rather have little bit of "whooosh" or no sound at all. Of course in my case it si a completely another world when you came tu Turbo car with open air box and no BoV and you driving the N/A ...all i hear is engine. Here? I heard turbo/sucking and that sututu 馃槃 @Yeetus So in my case it is really no difference to run no BoV or some atmo BoV like GReddy FV2? The car would drive the same and has "the same" little problems? As i wrote above i kinda thinked that atmo BoV with stock MAF would cause more problems...but then again i dont know much about no BoV either :-)  So to avoid stalling i "cant" just put neutral on stop lights like from higher rpm? Or? Yeah iam already looking for ECU :-)  Yes iam at the same side with thar R35 MAF :-)  @Dose Pipe Sutututu Thank you i (my mechanic/tuner) will look into that) Guess iam taking the Nistune at least :-) 
    • Here's the workaround with Nistune I was talking about, just add in more timing on the decel table And play around with the fuel cut & recovery, it's enough to stop it from stalling on a decel  
    • Hi Apex and welcome! 
    • Probably too late to reply to this, but worth a try. It's not calliper flex, the calliper as a whole is moving so it has to be calliper mounting bracket flex.  Calliper mounting brackets are designed to stop the calliper rotating, they don't need to be designed heavy duty to stop the calliper moving in and out.  Whatever it is is not the major cause of poor pedal feel, the outer pistons are moving towards the disc rotor the same amount as the inner pistons are moving away from the disc rotor.  Hence no change in fluid usage, what extra fluid is needed to move the outer pistons is recovered from the inner pistons. For a calliper to move as a whole by far the most common reason is the rotor is not perfectly centred in the calliper.  The first thing I check is that hub face is perfectly clean, bare metal, where the rotor hats contacts it.  Then I check the that rotor is firmly held in place by at least 3 wheel nuts (or equivalent). If all of the above are confirmed to be in perfect alignment then I would check the piston sizes and ensure that the 3 inner pistons and 3 outer pistons have matching diameters (eg; 28/32/36mm).  I have seen a no name 4 spot calliper that had 1 of the 4 pistons a different diameter. Maybe I missed it, are both the callipers exhibiting the same problem? I would remove the transfer pipe and inspect it to make sure that there are no restrictions. Maybe you already have but if not I would return them with the video and have them confirm all of the above.   Hope that helps Cheers Gary    
    • If you have the original log book and it didn't have a chassis number quoted, then no money required.  I have "rechassied" a number of race cars, no problem as long as you have the original log book.   Cheers Gary
