S/C V8 vs Best Skyline (RWD only)

Ok you flogs, I was an avid R33 GTS-T man long ago however swapped to the ol' S/C V8 situation.

I believe there are a few very nicely powered GTS-Ts out there, a Crimson Red one worked up from BoostWorx comes to mind, that claims to be top of the tree?!?

Who'd like me to challenge Whatsisname to a best average of three at a drag meet?  

My ride, 2008 VE SSV, MP1900 blown, cammed, auto sedan.

No challenge thus far?!? 

I thought you were doing the challenging?

Wow! Shows how out of touch I am these days, family life and kids sports will do that.

I would've been willing to take that challenge, and still am.

Racelogic Traction Control with launch control and boost-by gear will certainly help me. Power is unknown at this stage, it was making 533kW at the wheels on 26psi. I should have a fair idea next week how much it makes at max boost (30-35+psi)

Come to think of it the last dyno session was the same day I saw your beast had been on the dyno earlier in the day! Yours has probably got more mumbo now but at the time it was 385ish and 600+ Nm vs 533 and just shy of 900Nm.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
