Ok, I did the proper thing and listened to him and those numbers still don't make any sense.

They took a car whose starting point is ~245 tq 230 HP and with an OTS tune is ~280 tq 240 HP on a dynapak. Added a front mount and a g25-660, lost *boost threshold* and torque while adding 40 HP.

My understanding is if the turbine a/r is too small you would get sooner boost response with it choking at the top end.

With thought I still don't understand what happening here. The numbers don't make sense to me especially combined with their comments.

 

BIG edit guys, sorry I should have put more thought into the original post.

Argggg  I could flip the table  !!  They changed the intercooler at the same time as the rear housing. So mudding the results. 

 

 

Ffs watching it now - pretty sure this runs pump gas? Skyrocketing intake temps suggests that intercooler setup was way out of it's depth, so changing that alone would have justified a separate test... Drives you nuts when this kind of thing is done by someone trying to share data and doing it as an authority.  If it makes significantly more and they conclude that it was because of the housing then a table flip is justified.

Hmm, not on the GCG website and Ebay is showing they are out of stock. I wonder when they'll actually be available. 

Price seems to be about the same as an 8374

On the eBay links shared by Lith it mentions 'Delivery: Estimated by 20 September' so guessing they will become available around that time, or a day or 2 earlier perhaps.

Maybe?

Looks like the G30s are coming, now....

better, it won't shit out turbine wheels when you overspeed it by 1 rpm.

Even though the more data etc I've seen it turns out there is a heap of misinfo on this (I'd been sucked in, too), it seems very much this isn't like that at all.  The overspeed data is all to do with the compressor, nothing to do with the turbine - if people have spat turbines then they have REALLY overdone it, probably due to some other issue.  Some cases I've seen have even turned out to be to do with oil starvation f**king the core and everything else being punished for it.

I love the idea of the new G-series range but the fact that there are hopes that they will compete with the OG EFR range, and now there is a new series of EFRs which have really stepped it up there are some G-series which could possibly prove to be too little - too late.    Look forward to seeing how they perform though as there are some really interesting units in the range, if they aren't a lot laggier than their wheel sizes would have you expect then they could mix things up a fair bit.

There seems to be limited information so far but it looks like the exhaust inlet/outlet location between g25 and g30 look to be identical, making at least the rear section of the turbo able to be swapped without modification to the exhaust. This should put the core in the same location too.

Very interested to see how the G30 based turbos compare to the GT30 based turbos in terms of response. Im expecting response somewhere between GT30 and GT35 in comparable housing sizes...time will tell

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
