Go fast central!

cams yes i have these - did not make a 'big' difference in peak power but more so in torque (100Nm)

pods yes i have these - would not make a 'big' difference in power though

what i am getting at is that the cams & pods cannot make the additional 120rwkw+ power difference

[OZ GTR35]

I agree, but they are needed to close down that gap. There is no doubt your figures are great but I just wanted to qualify the "similar setup" comment.

Thanks

[Beer Baron]

yeah, I don't think you can really compare the figures from two different dynos with any great level of accuracy. only really usefull to compare your own graphs, on the same dyno to get an idea of how you're going.

Paul, nice result with the SS mate. interesting that your old RS setup with no cams and 2.6l engine only made full boost at nearly 7000rpm. must make the new set-up seem a lot more fun to drive

[OZ GTR35]

Yes, just driving around on the 11lb setting is fun. Kabab has been for a skirt in the car, it was wet and very scary

What a load of crap, you don't gain 170rwhp going from awd to rwd

[blk180]

no you dont hes adding the 100hp more he made plus 70hp for trans loss.

[BU5TER]

301rwkw by UAS???

CRD achieved 362awkw with my car - same turbo's & in fact similar setup.

 

as a comparison, this equates to 422rwkw!!!

...hmmm

 

maybe i have a "freak" engine (yeah right)

 

 

Marko.

Looks like he's saying rwkw to me? no mention of gearbox

[Beer Baron]

yes I have to agree with Buster, would be a pretty poor driveline to be loosing 60kw just in switching from AWD to RWD. from my limited experience with my GTR and from observing others on the dyno i'd say the difference in a GTR between AWD and RWD on the same dyno is about 20-35kws.

[OZ GTR35]

CRD shared his experience with me. Switching an R32 with around 300Kw at all 4 to 2 wheel drive adds about 50kw on his dyno.

[Marko R1]

Hi guys,

BU5TER:

its not 'a load of crap' that you lose up to 70kw from awd to rwd when a car is producing over 350awkw!

as Oz GTR02V added - with 300awkw you will lose 50kw from awd to rwd

formula for this:

the more power you make the more you will lose in the driveline, it is relative.

this is a fact guys!!!

i tend to take side with jim @ crd on this.

Marko.

[BU5TER]

So if thats true at 600-800rwkw the loss would be that great that the driveline should explode, honestly it gets to a certain point then stops it doesn't work out to be a set formula

[Marko R1]

whatever you believe is your choice...

what i write is from a professional that has been tuning gtrs for 15 yrs & is involved with international & national events, perhaps you should speak to crd if you have any further q's

i listen to experts & then relay feedback, how you choose to take this is entirely up to you...

marko.

Heheh but they do explode!!!

kaaaaaaaaboom!!

[BU5TER]

Thats cool if you like to be a puppet

[Marko R1]

no need for this negativity...

its sad that some of these informational threads people like reading such as myself turn into sour lemons :boohoo:

[Morgs]

Why dosent someone just dyno back to back on a 4WD dyno in both modes? Proof is in the pudding then. Hell, I'll do it if my car is ever functional again.

[OZ GTR35]

I was in melb about 5 years ago and watched an R32 on a tafe dyno do 175kw @all 4 and then RWD did 210kw. CRD has done this before and I accept his statement as he has no reason or gain from bullshitting about it. The difference between his dyno is about 50kw between RWD and 4WD. Its a free country so make your own opinion and leave it at that.

[BU5TER]

I promise you there are no sour lemons here I just hate these informational threads being filled with bullsh!t to make one person look better then another or to bag a workshop that is a forum sponsor

[fatz]

i say we all have a big glass of who gives a shit

[renis]

Mate no one was making anyone look better than anyone else...it was all interesting comparative feedback. Hence this is the aim of this forum to view, compare, obtain advice etc. Its great seeing different results. I also did not view any negative criticism towards a particular workshop. No one was taking offence to anyone and everyone respected and congratulated OzGTR02V's results.

In fact your the first person that has initiated any form of bulls%it saying that peoples comments were a load of crap!!! and that its cool if you want to be a puppet....now if thats not insulting well I dont know what would be??

I have also been to many tuners hence getting advice from an expert such as Jim is not being a puppet but merely being sensible by obtaining truthful advice and not advice from their ar$e.

Anyway lets get off the sour lemon topic and back onto the topic of congratulating Oz GTR...great results mate...awesome you must be proud.
