Barry believes it, with E85. RB26s with 98 make about 340-350 with GT-SS.

Im not sure of the state of the car itself, but fair level of supporting mods to get it up to 400 i thought. Solid fuel pump setup, big exhaust (and all the GTR conspiracies that come with twins), clutch... Im sure there is other stuff i havent thought of.

i'm just going to throw it out there... but has anyone considered that the RP dyno might just read lower than others?

(not that it matters in any case)

It's all marketing...

- make the dyno read low where people have money to spend for more upgrades

- make the dyno read high where people are a one-time show so they can advertise & bring in more business

illuminati

Yes but not nearly as fun as paying out hub dyno people for thinking they have more power than they do

I can't see there being an issue with it hitting 400 on e85... it would be absolute max but should be possible

Yeah either way I don't really care about the top end power figure; never have. Within reason (obviously I'll be shitty if it finishes up at 250), but it's the midrange and linear torque I want here. I judge this by acceleration and seat of the pants alone.

Will never forget the '450rwkw supra' on e85 at the chasers dyno day rocking up with skinny 17s on the back did a bout 10 runs to try and beat the 2 falcons :P

Yeah the falcon 4l turbos are quicker than the 5l v8s (at same or similar power) because of the power curve pretty much constantly on their max power output whereas the v8s wind up. My power on a 6 pretty much runs 10s

Can't beat dat dere instant torque and response on the 8 doe

Whats eta on your gtr?

Edited by UNR33L

As soon as Barry gives me an ETA I'll multiply it by 2-3 and let you know

Waiting for some parts at the moment apparently

Doing some oil supply bulletproofing

Only has to be 50% of value for write off I thought? 2k excess sucks but that's nothing compared to what i'd get paid out if needed

Daily driver but I think on policy is only 10,000km a year

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
