This is for those that think that RB25s dont make a shit load of power and high revs on stock cams and heads.Check it out.

Hi Steve, on this dyno graph the AT is 21 degrees and the IT is 52 degrees.

On BMan's, the AT is 25 degrees and the IT is 31 degrees.

Help me out here, I am confused :confused:

PS; There are a couple of other interesting differences, but more on that later. I am more concerned with the temperature differences first off.

Melbourne is a very long way from perth.

ill be the guinea pig for this stupidly long-running debate

Im driving over there in as many months, and no doubt i'll be @ SST-Auto a bit checking it all out ;)

The final power figure was after a number of runs, and the intake temps get pretty warm, cause when doing a proper shootout reading the bonnet must be down.

Where was the IT temp probe?

:confused:

IT probe is infront of the air-stream going to the pod filter.

So the air coming out of the dyno cooling fan was at 52 degrees? That's a hot day for 11th June (winter), even in Perth. :confused:

I'm not sure whether there breed you dumber over there or not, so I'll repeat myself slowly so you may understand.

The probe is inside the engine-bay, in-front of the airpod, with the bonnet down. After 7 or so power-runs the air gets pretty damn warm in there, the fan is directed at the intercooler.

    • How dare you sell your unreliable Skyline and buy a reliable, Toyota/Yamaha car with a strong gearbox, torsen LSD and Toyota reliability. At least you won't need to worry about oil pumps, big catch can, oil restrictors, blowing off power steering belts, sheering off 3rd gear, failing ABS relays/pumps, etc.
    • Hope you aren't too sore after that one, might take a day or 2 to notice yet and I guess it is a loooooong drive home. On the bright side, tube frame front end is a thing at superlap, right?

    • The chart of front pressure to rear pressure (with one being on the x axis and the other being on the y axis) is not a straight line on a typical proportioning valve. At lower pressures there is a straight line with one slope, and at higher pressures that changes to a lower slope. That creates a bend in the line at that pressure, called the knee point. If you do not change the proportionng as the pressure gets higher, you will suffer excessive pressure (at one end of the car or the other, depending on which way you look at the proportioning action) and then get lockups at that end. The HFM BM57, from my memory of previous discussions, is based on the BM57 from a different car (to a Skyline), with a different requirement for the location of the knee point and the distribution of pressure front to rear, and so is not a good choice for an upgrade on a Skyline. Here's a couple of links to some old posts, one from here, one from elsewhere. A lot of it pertains to adjustable prop valves, but the idea is the same. There are plenty of discussions on here about this issue from al the many years of people wanting a cheap/accessible option. https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/ https://grassrootsmotorsports.com/forum/grm/learn-me-brake-proportioning-valves/236880/page1/  
    • Yeah dunno why johhny posted that here with no context, just post on FB/insta bro where he put it up?  Laine had an off at T4 during Thurs prac, he's ok, car is less than perfect, they are done for the weekend, he can fill in the rest. Bando also binned it like 100m up the road.
