Clearly people in Sydney have forgotten that the GT-R is designed for racetracks, not mind numbing bafoon I mean drag racing

Don't mean to be direspectful but Trap Speed is used as a tuning tool. Nothing to do being a bafoon just more to do with verifying dyno figures, as a graph can say what it wants but Mph is the purest number for measuring peak power.

So if a dyno sheet quotes 500kws peak power and the car pulls 130 mph then questions need to be asked to the validity of the power figure quoted on the dyno sheet.

Like it or not its just the way it is.

i agree with this..... even though it is my own car....

on 500kw i should have gotten 140mph or very close to it....

Always had a suspicion JEM's dyno reads a little happy but I know Adam is a good tuner so I went to him for his capability rather than what his dyno will spit out.

Next time around I'm going to make sure I'm getting 31psi on the night so we'll see its real MPH :)

So ... youre saying GTRs at WSID go there for more than just being kicked off after the first run, and refusing to install a cage or parachute?

I thought you never get to run at WSID with all the VLs dumping their guts every 5 minutes

Speaking of stupidly high reading dynos, what happened to that bloke that made 700kw with -5s. He seemed to disappear after running his car on an Aussie dyno

Ha ha. That thread was the definition of insanity.

Has anyone considered twin 7163's as shown here?: 

http://www.full-race.com/store/efr-turbo-kit/nissan-rb26dett-efr-twin-turbo-kit-1.html

This looks to be the direction I will head over the winter. 

Have seen a few different twin EFRs used on YouTube, up to 9180s.

What I did think about, if you ever got defected for having a single on,  could you go with smallish twin EFRs legally ??

Would think the cost of going back to twins would be pretty prohibitive .

Here is an RB26 @ 800awhp + with twin 6258s

Twin EFR's look just as out of place as one larger single. 

Twin EFR's don't mount in the factory position.

I'm from the states so I don't think legality is really a big issue here.

Positioning isn't really important nor is aesthetics, for me personally. I'm looking at performance from twin 7163's versus other options, like a single EFR. According to Jon@FullRace, these turbos will be enough for 700whp on 91 octane, which were my goals originally. I don't mind the twin setup if it performs as well or better than an EFR single for the power requirements.

^^^Correct! This is what these turbos are about! 99% of people arent going to buy an EFR for the drag strip!   These things are all about on/off throttle type of stuff and the widest power/torque band you can just about have "in a turbo car"

thanks.  i get tired of posting this ^^^ in response to "what does it trap" posts.  Believe me guys, i get it - you want to compare it to every other turbo out there.  The thing is, these are different.  And the difference is not on a dyno or a drag strip.  If you actually get real experience with an EFR then you will get it too.. and if drag racing is your thing, Twin-EFR is the way.  Not single.

    • Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4
    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!
