Time for a wire in Link/Vipec!

Whilst I would love a G4 extreme there is no VQ25 base map, which means no cams. Link didn't want to help unfortunately, nor Haltech. Not enough of a market. I will have to wait until the VQ35 goes in then get the plugin.

So no hope of AWD manual without adapting a R34 GTR box?

It would require either extensive floorpan modifications or lengthening of the gearbox to space the transfer case out. Also the cut and shut bell housing. It would be expensive either way as you cant get a good box for less than $4k, this whole kit cost me $2500 including the V35 console.

The pallet is on it's way from Qld, should be here in a couple of days. :)

Clutch is ordered. :)

VQ35 is gaids unless forged. Is there something you feel the stock VQ25det isn't giving me Ryan? I thought it was doing pretty well... :P

I will be winding the boost into it now the box will take the abuse, 400kw shouldn't be a problem from the GTX3076 once the power leaching auto is gone. ;)

So go forged? Never any substitute for cubes... VQ25DET is going well, 400kW sounds good. But VQ35DET should be better :P

I'd argue that in a race car! Watched a rb20det munching away at rb26dett's on the weekend!

It would have to be under 3L for the class I want to be in, plus I want to see what the little VQ can do.

A VQ30det would be nice though, easy to wire in and tune too, but it won't be much different to the 2.5det in terms of drivability or max power imo.

Unfortunatly you are (we are) confined by turbo size. So, thoughts on that? All other factors being equal the 3.5 or stroked would still be choice for a track car and road car because of more useable power band and torque. That being said, your going to have to put a lot of effort into something like that, when you already have a proven lil performer in your hands.

I think on the weekend it became even clearer to me that big power does not maketh the fastest way round a track. But more usable power and torque and the ability to put it down efficiently does the goods.

      Ceramic turbine damage to engine - what did yours do?

      By Erelyes · Posted

      Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.

      Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)

      Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.

      Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
