Currently running 16.8 degrees timing in 3rd gear. I increased timing by 5 degrees this morning and it was considerably quicker. Smoking all 4 tyres on accel.

My concern is however the timing is gear specific as controlled by the OEM ECU. Increasing the timing that suits 3rd will cause huge timing figures in the lower gears...possibly explaining why Tao's M35 exploded in 2nd gear at part throttle.

There is a speed vs fuel map in the EMU however no speed vs timing. I might look at translating speed to a 0-5v signal to utilize the temp vs timing map in the EMU since the OEM ECU handles that anyway.

There is no question we have more power to be extracted. I just want to be smart about how it is controlled.

What's 1300lb torque in NM? I tried an online conversion tool and it gave me the result of 1700NM!

I have no idea what formula you used.. but I'm going out on a limb to say its incorrect. TE = T*R*1000/r I dont know the gear ratios, diff ratios, or rolling radius of Matts tyres so it'd all be a stab in the dark.

Dyno sheets are just a tuning tool, I'm looking forward to it having a run at AIR and seeing what numbers it can put down!

Agreed it's a weird figure that's at the rear wheels. Makes no sense and is definitely not 1700nm and a reference-able figure. Good for highlighting the torque curve only. It's certainly making decent torque. I just need to connect the rpm trigger on the dyno next time to get a normal type of output. Will do this when I get around to actually tuning the timing. Only running 16.9 degrees ATM.

Keen for AIR also. Need to fix the damage from it coming off the dyno first.

I realized its a tuning tool, it was out of curiosity to see what the VQ makes vs the B5 Audi S4 2.7ltr twin turbo.

Torque figures on roller dynos are usually pretty inaccurate from a numerical perspective (perhaps they can be accurate with correct information input). my pulsar has made anything from 600 to 1000NM's lol

Yea you need the info that Dunc mentioned above to accurately work out the torque. I think what is displayed on the dyno is tractive effort or some crap which then needs to be converted using the ratios etc as Dunc mentioned

Are there options for me if i simply want to upgrade core to one with a steel turbine rather than ceramic ? I have not seen it pop up at all and it is an upgrade in terms of material used

like a hi-flow?

I'm not aware of a direct fit steel wheel replacement. Of note. If you fitted a direct fit steel turbine you would go backwards in terms of torque(low end response) there are small high flows available now which respond very similar to stock.

What are their wheels made of? Are they just a Garrett core with our housings or something else?

I think that's what stripey wanted, just a basic high flow that will respond similarly to stock but without the concern of the ceramic wheel.

Yes you can get a Garrett core replacement. Original replacement with the ceramic turbine has steel ball bearings and the newer Garrett cores are Ceramic Ball bearing with inconel turbines. As long as the rebuilt unit is ball bearing or CBB you will claw back some of the benefits of the ceramic turbine.

    • So, version 4 intake is on its way I was looking at these a while ago but at around $200 or more it was a little pricey for something that might not work, but, I had it in my watch list, but, I got a message saying it was on special, and I had a code thingie to use, it eventually came in at $120 delivered, so BAM, BUY NOW.....LOL I'll need to have a look when it arrives but I feel it will "look" better than what I currently have, as it comes with a PCV fitting, so I will be able to get rid of the alloy pipe that goes to the throttle body with the PCV fitting  Well, that's what the voices in my head are telling me  Oh, and this happened today Yeap, it was a Trojan, and it was cheap, so I headed back to the hardware store and actually spent a little bit more on a heavy duty,  one that was actually recommended by a plumber mate, a Cyclone one with a fibreglass handle that is actually rated for clay The broken shovel will eventually be "modified" into a short handle shovel
    • When you pulled it off, there is no signs of blown head gasket? Is it possible you have some other issues going on? Possible cracked blocked? Or do you think it's straight up lifting the head? Did you check what the head was torqued to before pulling it down (To see if possibly they're stretching, or starting to break threads out etc)?
    • Seems like a decent result for a modded JZX110. They are bulky in comparison to the 100 and 90 models (which I'd prefer myself) but they are getting very few and far between here in JP these days. Thanks for the detailed review and the import process into the UK. I also have a car which I'm hoping to export from Japan at some stage so it's good to know if someone from the UK was interested in it. By the way the corrosion underneath is par for the course for cars which were located in/near the mountains or along the Japan sea coastline. They get huge amounts of snow every winter and the sodium chloride is used on the roads. Many cars have some kind of rubber like treatment underneath but they tend to limit it to the wheel arches underbody and fuel tank. Suspension arms and sub-frames will have similar corrosion to your JZX110 which is a common sight. See it all the time and car dealers here generally don't even mention it unless asked.
    • If the sound goes away when you clutch in, the 1.5/2 way diffs are just shit, and you are a normal person. The diff is likely "fine" but driving at anything under 30kmh is a violent horrible experience. It would be exaggerated with solid diff bushings and subframe bushings if you have those.
