I'm sure the dyno sheet would only tell half the story of how this thing behaves. Drive it through the hills with its tricky diffs and sticky tyres and it would be an absolute bullet. E85 and give it more boost through the middle would fatten it up even more but I'm not sure how much the peak figure would change.

Definitely want a drive!

Wish the speed reference was revs instead easier to read, anyone able to give rpm reference points?

That run would have been done in 3rd gear.

That's 22.5 km/h per 1000 RPM. (Close enough when factoring in tyre sizes)

90 km\h is 4000 RPM.

Why would anyone use 3rd, not even wheel/ tyres would simulate a proper 4th gear pull.

Wouldn't those dots on the map represent rpm points?

Last dot meaning 8k?

Out of interest, what makes you say it is in 3rd gear?

Because the dyno run went to 180 km/h which is the top of 3rd in a factory geared box. It's making peak power around 160 km/h which is 7000 ish RPM. If it was in 4th it's peak power would be like 5500 RPM (rough calcs) which isn't right.

Hmmm I just look at it again, I'm an idiot. Thanks.

I agree.

Real world experience In this car would be the only true testament.

Even if it doesn't make more than 360kw peak it would have such a absolute meaty power band.

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
