3.4 stroker?

Correcto! 

Picked it up last night, jumped on it when I was told about it as I couldn't build a 30det for the price i got it for. 

So quick run down on the motor:

Spool 3.4 stroker kit, upgraded L19 rod bolts, I beams, CP Pistons, Darton sleeves, drilled returns, smoothed casting.

Head is a 25 head with solid lifter conversion, +1 valves, ported, dual springs, ti retainers, 270in 280ex cams.

Also got ATi superdamper and Kulig Trigger kit, Genuine Greddy intake, Plazmaman rail, Bosch 1650 injectors (for now).

Decided on a GTX4202r to strap to the side of it, wanted to go a PTE7675 but the Garrett is a lot cheaper. 

Still a lot of stuff to buy, he had a dry sump on it so Ive gotta get a pump and also head gasket as it has a 1.9 in there currently.

Wow thats awesome, what  times for the 1/4 are you aiming for

Will definitely be going for 8's with this setup. We will probably go a low 9 if all goes well on first outing and get booted until I get teched. Will hold off on cage and stuff for a while so I can enjoy it at happy laps and (no cage allowed) and get used to it on the street and once it's all teched go back and turn it up and see what happens :)

Cheers man, pretty excited :D Not gonna feel real until I'm a bit closer to putting it in I think ? 

Anyway finally got my converter back from TCE today and got the box back in. Almost done, just gotta pull the pan off and drill and tap for the temp sensor, put the tail shaft back on and plumb the cooler lines back in.

Got it all going yesterday, new converter feels good. Doesnt jump onto boost like I thought it should but its definitely better. Hopefully enough to crack a 10. 

New temp gauge works good, and all gauges and dash match now with the white LEDs. Temp sits on 175*F which from what Ive ready is pretty good. 

Roll racing tonight, no mickeys so traction will probably be an issue in low gear. Hopefully this crappy brisbane weather stays away.

Picked up a new set of mickeys last week and got em fitted, pulled the stupid traction rods out and replaced them with the stock ones. Even though they were both set at the same length the right side poked for some reason?! Got an alignment and they fit perfectly both sides now! Went on a safe camber at -1* incase it was my subframe that was offset but turned out to just be the traction rods. I can now pull them out to 0 camber but they hook perfect still. Might do it when I get the welds for even wear.

So silly me didn't test the transbrake before going to the strip. Got there and it was only stalling to 2500rpm... End up running a 2.7 60ft cause it took ages to get onto boost. Only did one run and went home. So I have an exhaust leak and not sure if its the gate or not but I'm about to check it out. I kinda hope its the gate as I dont wanna pull the box out again and send the converter away just to have a few passes trying to crack a 10 then pull it out and get it changed for the new motor again.

What ecu are you using? I would be going down a 2step path rather than pulling the converter

Running a link g4+, we have a 2step set to 3800rpm but it wouldnt even get to that rpm on trans or foot brake...

Bodgy option is set two step rpm to 2500 and see if you can build some boost, then deactivate 2step then trans brake. Should be able to that with a timer setup for consistency.

Nah I'd rather get it fixed properly so all I have to do is transbrake and go. I wasn't using the 2step last time as the stall speed was too low and wouldn't cut properly above stall speed.

    • For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
    • Yeah, that's fine**. But the numbers you came up with are just wrong. Try it for yourself. Put in any voltage from the possible range and see what result you get. You get nonsense. ** When I say "fine", I mean, it's still shit. The very simple linear formula (slope & intercept) is shit for a sensor with a non-linear response. This is the curve, from your data above. Look at the CURVE! It's only really linear between about 30 and 90 °C. And if you used only that range to define a curve, it would be great. But you would go more and more wrong as you went to higher temps. And that is why the slope & intercept found when you use 50 and 150 as the end points is so bad halfway between those points. The real curve is a long way below the linear curve which just zips straight between the end points, like this one. You could probably use the same slope and a lower intercept, to move that straight line down, and spread the error out. But you would 5-10°C off in a lot of places. You'd need to say what temperature range you really wanted to be most right - say, 100 to 130, and plop the line closest to teh real curve in that region, which would make it quite wrong down at the lower temperatures. Let me just say that HPTuners are not being realistic in only allowing for a simple linear curve. 
    • I feel I should re-iterate. The above picture is the only option available in the software and the blurb from HP Tuners I quoted earlier is the only way to add data to it and that's the description they offer as to how to figure it out. The only fields available is the blank box after (Input/ ) and the box right before = Output. Those are the only numbers that can be entered.
    • No, your formula is arse backwards. Mine is totally different to yours, and is the one I said was bang on at 50 and 150. I'll put your data into Excel (actually it already is, chart it and fit a linear fit to it, aiming to make it evenly wrong across the whole span. But not now. Other things to do first.
    • God damnit. The only option I actually have in the software is the one that is screenshotted. I am glad that I at least got it right... for those two points. Would it actually change anything if I chose/used 80C and 120C as the two points instead? My brain wants to imagine the formula put into HPtuners would be the same equation, otherwise none of this makes sense to me, unless: 1) The formula you put into VCM Scanner/HPTuners is always linear 2) The two points/input pairs are only arbitrary to choose (as the documentation implies) IF the actual scaling of the sensor is linear. then 3) If the scaling is not linear, the two points you choose matter a great deal, because the formula will draw a line between those two points only.
