SET WHAT ?, I take it you are joking and pulling my leg ?

If not, Do a Pauline, please explain :/

You know that I know nothing much about modifying cars, only what I have been learning while on SAU. I know more now in 18 months than I ever knew about cars and that is not a lot.

Up until now, I just buy them, drive them, brakes down someone fixes them, it was easy, only had to have the NRMA card with you :)

Sorry Pete, I'm referring to the nitrous setup you should have on the car. Not some other random setting!

See what I mean Ben, I know nothing :)

Get the same kick out of baked beens :/

haha i was kidding about getting RIPS to build the engine...although they do a wicked job.

200hp shot of NOS. YES!

I think that 900NM is going to be a handful anyway.

I was seriously thinking of using RIPS and he was very helpful but as it turns out Sydney was too far :(

Have seen some of the motors CRD have done and they can be very strong.I think he specializes more in the upper range HP , but ?

Have a look on Piglets rebuild, there is a vid of Steve Ka's time attack runs at WTAC 2014, that would get the blood pumping to your low head, haha

If you didn't know but Jhh racing in Qld build great motors as well, just saying...

The motor is fine Ali, just a few touch ups and away we go.

You can see the boost drops off from 24psi @ 150kph to 18.5psi @ 250kph ish, at the 381.7kw mark, there is something wrong with this and it will be checked out and fixed.

I also think there is more to get down low from a different type tune :)

Going off the Dyno Graph, what do you think the KW would have been if it held the 24psi until the 7000rpm.

I maybe wrong and I'm no expert but I think you maybe at your limits of pump fuel, hopefully the e85 tune will give you what your chasing.

CRD build tuff cars and I've witnessed it in person last week. But I feel CRD did that tune for a reason, maybe ask the tuner the question?

Also what is your engine compression ratio?

sounds like your power hungry

You can still get a c63. Oh oh, saw a M6 today. That shit was hot, and sounds so good

If you are practicing to be a DH, you can stop, the Dux you are :yes: :yes: :yes: :yes: :yes: :yes: :yes: :yes: :yes:

I might be 100% wrong but I believe it should be better than it is.

So you think the boost should start tapering off at 5000 ish rpm with the mods I have ??

You may be right about the pump fuel, but that does not mean it cannot be better down low, it is not much better than when it was a 2.6 apart from the torque until the turbo kicks in

I have always said that CRD builds tough motors and gets some big HP going.

I asked the question to them 4 days ago why the boost tapers off , I got nothing ?

Anyway, I will have it checked out and we will see what the problem is and fix it very soon. Maybe it will go better , maybe it won't ?????

But it is still fun to drive :)

Gets a massive single and complains about lagg...

Doinitwrong.

Just quietly my poor man's 2.6 made 320kw on pump with -7s..... Soon to be more with e85. Any man's guess as to what it will make... Guessing 350. Maybe more. I'd say the -7s will run out of puff at 350.

For people to say you need e85 for it to work properly should be shot. Unless it's a track build the idea of e85 is great but it's availability makes it mediocre at best. keep in mind I'm only flex tuning it because haltech and it was $200 more than setup on just 98. I will be running 98 most of the time.

If you are not happy with it now, pull the turbo off and go smaller and run less power. E85 will only bandaid the issue and not fix it.

I just had a look at both of your dyno runs, old and new. If piggaz calculations are right they only revved it to about 7250rpm...

Interesting if that's correct? Once again I could be wrong I'm not good at maths

The 3.2l is no miracle worker.

You won't get n/a response doesn't matter what you do. You can't get linear torque nor power with an low compression rb at the power you want. It just won't happen.

As I have said previously your turbine is to small to make any significant power in excess of what you have now. To tell you the truth I recon CRD did a pretty good job trying to tune that turbo on your setup it must have been a nightmare.

In a nutshell, you either need to decide on higher power or better response, you can't have both.

People have been telling you this all along.

    • Haha, i kow right? Could have bought so many cars for the same amount of money (or less) but driving Unicorn gives you at least +1mln to style 😅. Like wise man said "life's to short to drink cheap wine and drive boring cars" 😉
    • Newbie here, proud owner of an Autech 260RS. I'm on the hunt for wiring diagrams specific to the 260RS, particularly S1. I've ran my eyes through R33, R34 Diagrams, there are some similarities, however continue to find incorrect wire colours and pins on connectors in the 33,34 diagrams.   I was hoping someone could point me in the right direction? I'd be happy to pay for the originals in Japanese. I can translate them, at least they would be accurate.   Any help please would be greatly appreciated, never heard an RB26DETT before let alone driven one, and I've got a spaghetti monster of goodness to sort out.   Cheers Benny  
    • Hey all  im wondering if you can help me please I have put a rb20 box in my r34 gtt as my auto packed up and a friend had a spare box I know it’s not ideal but it will get me up and running for now. we have done the conversation and everything is working great but my Speedo we got a s13 speed sensor but my Speedo reads double now and I bought a speed converter but still not having any luck.  so I thought I’ll reach out and pick your brains  any help would be appreciated please as I wanna drive my car again 
    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻
