Take it to a new tuner, drop the car and see how much more power it makes.

I would NOT be surprised if the figures are fudged to make them seem similar to previous result, therefore making CRD appear not as stupid

Pete, I find it hard to believe that the bigger duration cams mad as much response as the smaller cams.

Also find it hard to believe that the larger exhaust didn't make a difference.. Unless the Cat is now restrictive. What size was is the cat?

Also can you post these "diary" results Pete?

Power seems low. With my 2.6, I had 422kw @20 psi on 98 with the smallest t51r. Yes I understand that it's not the same turbo but I don't think yours would be 40kw atw lower given a bigger bottom end

Also it took them that long to do all that? Did they list specific days and how long they worked on it?

Apparently the cams are a restriction

:/

Yes , as every one knows Paul, your hideous White Whale choked with these cams , no bottom, middle or top end , no wonder you are pissing it off , oh, I have a forged 26 bottom end for sale , I know how you love them :whistling:

Might put the Poncams B back in :/

Might use the other cams for road base

Totally different turbo.

Fatz just went 399 at 22 psi with the same turbo on a 2.6 on E85.

Pete went 386 on petrol at 22 psi.

Guys seem to see STROKER and expect 92736262718126 kW.

Give it a gut full of E85 and wind this thing up. It won't win dyno comps, never will but to drive it on twisty roads, no hunk of shit, gutless, twistless 2.6L "revvy" *rollseyes* GTR wil catch it on the same setup.

For the restrictions that it's got/had with the 3 inch dump pipe, I'm not sure what people are expecting. 450 kW on petrol, you're dreaming!!!!

Oh, your so cute when you are mad :wub:

Are you crushing cans tonight :cheers:

And as for noisy top end with these cams but quieter with the drop ins. I have the same cams, springs and retainers. My top end noise is no louder than any other GTR with say a set of poocams. Are the clearances set correctly?

Doesn't sound that bad Pete. The new dump will improve response, something you should really feel driving it rather than see on a dyno. Obviously the turbo was selected for response so that's why its running out of puff up top on a 3.2 and why the bigger dump isnt making much difference in the top end. Don't stress about it. As long as all the tuning is done right so you don't have the previous issues. Don't worry about e85 either, it would be a head f**k for a daily seeing that its becoming more scarce. See how you go but I recon it should be exactly what you want. Hope so anyway. :)

Technical parameters: - Axle: front. - Disc type: ventilated. - Number of holes: 5. - Disc diameter: 310mm. - Total height with center: 54mm. - Thickness (new/min.): 30/28mm. - Designed for brake calipers manufacturer: Sumitomo.
    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
