Are they both using the same turbo's?

 

Obviously if a turbo is at the edge of its efficiency then a set of cams will do wonders, cams reduce the amount of boost required to flow x amount of air.

 

To make more power you can either use a larger laggier turbo or start looking in to improving air flow in to the pots.

No, there not using the same turbo, I have a GT30, and robs is the TD06. Even he will agree that his is laggier than mine.

The point that we were trying to make is that SK comment

My experience has been that the standard camshafts are the most likely first limiter over 250 rwkw. They simply don't have enough lift or duration to let the air into the engine. Sure you can turn the boost up and try and squeeze some more air in, but you will get higher inlet air temps and lower efficiency.

doesn't always hold true. On stock cams mine has made 330rwkw and still hasn't fallen off at 8000rpm. That's not to suggest that most RB25's don't do what SK suggests though, but cams may not be the only restriction.

I haven't had any port work done yet. just want to see how far I can go with the stock cams.

and its still using standard injectors and cams?

We're using GTR injectors now, although we could have got the stockies to this level, we knew that seeing as we're pushing for 500rwhp that they wouldn't last. Just need to fit an 044 pump as I'm sucking the pump dry:(

GTS-t Vspec,

You are definately missing out on not having some higher lift/longer duration cams in your engine. You will make more power and the inlet temps will not be as high, it's just physics. There are always two ways to make good power. So far you have chosen the hard way trying to see how much power you can make on standard cams. For the rather small outlay you could pick up so much performance. I'd like to see you crack a 12 second pass, you've been waiting so long for it so I reckon you should treat yourself to some nice camshafts :P

Dave, Sure I could put a set of cams in, and make alot more power, but I just wanted to show that it's not necessary to make decent power and not run out of puff at 6500rpm. I'll do an 11sec pass with stock cams just for you;)

You go for it, it's not the way I would do it. But hell, give it a go, maybe you will be the first person in the world to do an 11 on standard cams. :( I really don't know whether anyone else has ever done it. I do know a black R34 GTT that did an 11.6 with 50 bhp less than you. But it had 260 Tomei Poncams in it, so it doesn't count.

But on to more serious matters...

the engine had only been rebuilt 2 days earlier

What happened?

I have no doubt of its potential.

I cant pull on it with 4 people in my car yet i can easily walk away from other reasonably quick cars(low 13's etc) as if they standing still.. once again with a full load.

What speculation you want on his HP.. if you'd see it you'd believe it.

THing is Sydneykid is we have cars out there,You rewrite other PPLs storys as your own.

Facts Steve, I only deal in facts. And the fact here is the R34 GTT did an 11.6 with 50 bhp less. Whether I wrote the story or someone else did is irrelevant.

i seem to recall use of slicks.. and bits breaking..

Yep summoner 50% correct, my suspension set up got the traction and squat so good that a driveshaft became the weakest link. But the fastest run was on Nitto's, not slicks.

    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
    • On the bright side, the weather will turn much nicer for working outside shortly....sounds like you might need to start on a neighbour's garden next
    • Ok so i will NEED to have this sensor anyway even with Nistune (or standalone ECU) https://justjap.com/products/genuine-nissan-boost-pressure-sensor-evap-control-system-fits-nissan-r34-skyline-c34-nm35-stagea-pnt30-x-trail-rb25det-vq25det-sr20vet?currency=AUD&srsltid=AfmBOoqfxX48bW9bEwH62orcNhtBfp7ekAL0C9Ca89ySFGUiBzXfXeze Is this the correct one? And this is only thing i need? No other "things" connected to the sensor or something? I do have the wiring.
