Having been in a v cam 2.6, it would be about equal from 3500 ish compared to a 2.8. From the basement you can't hide cubes/stroke.

* very rough figures though.

There will be a comparison between the 2.6/v cam vs 2.8 using exactly the same turbo soon enough.

They are still talking about Stroker Vs 26, they just do not agree. Hit him with your hand bag Joey :domokun:

I think Joey has been in enough different Rs to make an educated statement about strokers Vs 26, just do not get Piggaz started on strokers Vs 26 :woot: ​. Have a look at Piggaz car, stroker and a worked head.

From what I can work out , you like them or you don't , you like to rev them hard or you would rather have your car working earlier. It seems you can do this with both with the right mods, but I would imagine that with extra CCs a stroker has to be a little better.

Cutty, ask a few of these blokes if you can get a run in their cars. From my limited experience Dynos look impressive but until you drive them you do not get the full impact of how the car drives on the "street".

Cheers Pete,

Considering my first reply was a legitimate one, I can't help if people want to reply in that manner.

Anyway, I actually hate this expression but it does ring truth

"There's no replacement for displacement", seems these days more and more people are going stroker kits

For a bloke that has never driven a stroker, you know a lot about the advantages of them, how they drive, blah blah.

Farken 2.6L junk. Bin it.

It has nothing to do with peak power. How can having more low to mid range twist be considered a bad thing?

A 28 is to a 30 what a 26 is to a 28

.... about...... Not rocket science is it. I have driven enough 30s in my time.

My LS2 had twist from idle and a found that as boring as shit, unless burnouts of course.

Mid range twist is for lazy c%&$ who want to brag about how fat their dyno sheets are so they don't have to change gears...... Suggestion...... Get an auto.

You guys are funny.

Can't wait for my TO4z setup to be on the road so I can thrash the f#@k out of it.

    • I have been looking at some setting on the alarms for the Q60 and what buttons do and so and also been looking for details on the alarm in my V37 which is a standard issue with the car. settings like window roll up and a few others seem to not work at all. i cant seem to find exact info on V37 alarms so Q60 is all i can really go off i have not tried 400Z alarm settings or info yet so that will be next. any one got like a sheet of info on the alarm system in the V37 as all my documents are in japanese but i thought the system would basically be like standard through similar models? 
    • I had a fuel smell coming from the drivers rear and pulled the tank out to inspect where it was coming from, turns out the breather hose from the tank to the filler neck was perished. I’m going to Japan next week and I’ll grab it while I’m there  pulled the oil tank apart and started cleaning this crap out of it, some brake cleaner and rags got it looking new again 
    • Hmm. Was quite a few years ago now. I think I bought from a crowd in the US called CDT Audio. The speaker is the HD-6. The HD-6CF would have been the better option (based on T-S parameters), but they were discontinued in 4 ohm at that point in time. The HD-6 is a better driver in almost every other way (than the CF) - just not as good in IB. They still do the HD-6. They might even have a more suitable (for IB) option here.https://www.cdtaudio.com/cdtnew22/products/components/woofers/midwoofers/midwoofers.htm But, here's the rub. I was working in the US a lot back then, so I got them delivered to my US office and then just brought them back to OZ myself. I don't know if they will ship to OZ, and it probably wouldn't be great cost-wise anyway. As to results. They're driven direct off the rear channels of my headunit, because the headunit can be setup to run the rears as subs. So, not a lot of power being fed there. Nevertheless, there's no shortage of volume - the sub levels don't need or want to be boosted at all. The bass is definitely not what you would call "tight". It is definitely a bit delayed compared to a proper sub. But, with the great front soundstage and really good 6.5" woofers in the front doors, I'm getting most of the bass detail from the front and the rear is really only to extend the bottom end a bit. Works for what I'm doing. I mean - until recently you couldn't really hold a conversation in my car due to the fuel pump, and for many years I had tyres so noisy (Kumho KU36 at <50 tread depth) that I had to drive with earplugs anyway!
    • curious to know what drivers you chose and the results? quik mafs, says two 6.5s should roughly equate somewhere between a single 8" or 10" driver. i agree that IB is definitely the way to go in most cars imo.
    • S13 and R32 rear suspension geometry is horrible once you lower it (which everyone does). The camber & toe out ramp is very aggressive, hence it's common for the S13 boys/girls to use a S14 or S15 subframe as the geometry is light years ahead. I'm sure the same can be done on R32s, but I don't know anyone that has done that.
