Educated Guess At The Final Tune Results


Nismo 3.2ish

Recommended Posts

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!

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 :)

A 3.2 litre engine without a turbo is shit.

That's what you are driving before the turbo makes boost and gets things going.

Can't change that.

Yes that's a bonus, your doing better then me!

Mines been sitting in the workshop for over a year but that's mainly my fault for changing the plan so many times!

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.

    • This morning I carefully reinstalled the manifold and started looking at a couple of things I need to do.  Heat wrap arrived sometime today so I popped into the shed with the missus dishwashing gloves and started wrapping the first half of the dump and the screamer/plumb back.  Once I do the second half I'll be able to final fit the turbo and exhaust up.  Also pulled the harness out today and started terminating it at the ECU end. A connector is done, just need to run the remaining wires that arent in the harness - 12v, gnd and couple I/O
    • A31 is pretty much the same thing without HiAIDS I mean CAS, no improvement lol. Not to late to send it.
    • Thanks for all the replies! I also wanted to ask if wheels that were fitted on Ford Falcons would fit the 350GTs as well? In the area I'm at there aren't that many options for secondhand wheels and new ones here are way out of my budget. From what I've seen, most of the wheels that are available that were fitted on Ford Falcons have an offset of +33 to +36, with a centre bore of 70.5mm whereas the stock 350GT's ones are 66mm, can't seem to find any hubcentric rings that fit that difference though. 
    • 215/45/18 tyres are probably a little on the low side compared to the factory tyre, it should be closer to a 245/45/19, which will get you about an extra 11mm of height, and should make you speedo read a bit closer to reality. 245/45/19s will be a bit too far the other way and you risk a speeding ticket as your speedo might read slower than your actual speed.  245/40/19s would be correct if you are going to 19in rims, they will give you a similar total diameter to the 245/45/18 tyres.  
    • That's something I forgot to put in my list. The aggressive anti-squat in R32 is a f**king menace. I still need to decide if I'm going to drag the subframe out of my car and weld in the GKTech corrector kit. The main reason to dither is the need to switch to spherical joints in the lower arm to account for the twist induced in the rear pivot caused by lowering the front pivot. And yes...we do put better subframes in R32s, and I wish I'd gotten an S14 one instead of an A31 when I did the "take off and nuke it from orbit" HICAS delete all those years ago.
