In Sydney driving approx 120kms a day, livingt at Richmond, working in Chatswood i was getting about 410-430kms before the light was coming on. Driving up from Melb i was over at about 400kms with still plenty on the dial, but filled up as didnt want to get stuckbetween Albury and Goulbourn:)

So economy is pretty good as long as im not getting stuck up it.

Thats not bad then. I only drive about 60k's a day to work and back but have not yet tuned the car or given it a desent run over a long period (only on the track for about 40 laps) and it was pretty heavy on the juice. I put $10 (which was about 8L's) and got about 60k's could go more but light had been on for a while.

Might have to drive EXTREMLY CONSERVATIVE during the week and play on weekends or just keep taking the bike.

i made 298.7 @ 16.5 psi on sat... dyno dynamics

car had been on dyno for about 2 hours tuning so intercooler was getting a bit heat soaked and piping was fairly hot. would have cracked over 300 easy when not so hot

full boost at about 4100-4200 ish and holds dead steady all way to 7500

car drives heaps better now, lots more responsive and a little more top end, fuel is about 11.3-11.7 afrs and Power FC knock count doesnt go above 35 so is very safe.

will post power graph on friday as i dont have a scanner here. will get tuned again in a little while at 18psi and will hopefully get between 320-330rwhp

Pretty sweet dude :cheers:

Look forward to seeing it around the streets

i've got a 4 door r32 automatic i put a gt30 with an internal gate, malpassi regulator,front mount, turbo back exhaust, no cat converter, bosch fuel pump and on standard boost i made 226hp @ the wheels on standard boost.......and 597nm of torque....

next is ems stinger, manual conversion, head gasket with arp bolts, injectors and boost....

GT30 means as much as hi-flow these days. It seems so many trubo shops are sellign things they claim to be GT30 this and that, but are vastly different to what Garret calls a GT30, or HKS use as the basis of their GT30 series turbos, and the results vary greatly as well.

Very true, without wheel trims and specs etc, its pretty useless information

Sounds like it has potential though! I'm almost given up on getting anymore out of my setup, just cant get anymore out of a 2510 by the looks of things! Damn I wish it was a 2530/35! For the cost and headache's involved, cams aren't happening with mine, too much for not much gain

Might try a differant intercooler, as mine has a 60mm core, maybe something larger will give it that last bit of top end it so desperatley needs!

Someone hurry up and get a 2835ProS ffs!! I want to see how they would perform on a RB20........

yeah, depending on load and gear, 1.4bar at just after 3200rpm from memory in 3rd, in 2nd its a bit later, probaly closer to 4000, dies of a bit after 6200rpm, just need to get the last 1500rpm pointing the right way on the dyno, then it would make 220rwkw no worries

Dam thats bloody good responce Chris.So it must be a GT2510 then?

With my motor one sparkplug had cracked the ceramic thing around the electrode and slid down and i'm guessing thats why it idled really rough at times and good sometimes.Still don't know about the knock thou and it still has lots of oil pressure!

Sounds like you may have spun a bearing Jase ;)

If so you can still save your existing motor, just need to machine crank, and get resized bearings.

Used to be a regular occurance on my SR20, knock knock knock as you rev :)

I cant remember if you have cam gears...perhaps fiddle with teh cam timing so that you lost a but of mid range and help the top end a tad?!?!?! It seems you have mid range to burn:)

Also, is your boost tapering off at high rpm?

Since my car is at my dads hes looking at it and put in another spark plug.He drove it around the block and it did'nt knock?what is going on.When it did knock that was just after i revved it.

If any part of the plug dropped into the cylinder then that will cause a small knock, know a person who thought he had a screwed bottom end, pulled it apart and it was just a small bit of hose clamp someone had carelessly cut and dropped in the carby... Fingers crossed!

After a few days at 300hp mine developed a missfire which has now progressed to a stage where the car wont idle..

    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
    • OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
