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

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 :P

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

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

no need for this negativity...

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

I promise you there are no sour lemons here :rofl: 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 :(

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. :(

    • Sounds more like what Brad said, that it's mainly transfer. What pad bed in procedure did you use, and did you replace/machine the rotors, or just swap pads?
    • The stutter is almost entirely in the pedal. I don't feel the brakes release and reapply as you would with ABS engaging but the pedal feels that way, without the brakes releasing. It only lasts for less than a second and the pedal is fine again. It's hard to explain, sorry.  I'll get under this weekend and just double check everything is tight. Fluid is at max where I left it.
    • What bedding in procedure did you use?   When you say stutter, what exactly do you mean? Like it feels like someone letting go of the brakes momentarily and regrabbing them again to get you to stop? Re-reading your post, and that is what it kind of makes me think you're explaining, like theres a little bit of a jolt, likely just as you're reaching a stop. I've only had this issue once. And if its caused by what caused mine, you will want to get the car up on stands again and check it over. Mine was a case of a caliper mounting bolt coming out and letting the caliper rotate on the other remaining bolt and gave play in a wheel as it came to a stop. But not every stop either!
    • Yeop... binned it   This will be a summary will not many pics atm and cbf  Fixed the samsonas - it was totally munched Put a new precision 7675 T4 on with proper split pulse mani Got to Sydney to get to car - drove to canberra to get racecar - drive back to sydney that night Next day all day at Plasmaman putting on new clamps cleaning some things up and adding another large engine oil cooler sitting at the rear above diffuser to keep things cooler Next day - Tuesday - on Dyno - killer wikid awesome pumped out really good numbers - more mid range and on lower boost levels Wednesday - first prac - all day again getting the suspension right - had to borrow front suspension again - out do a lap come in - out do a lap - in - what i had just couldnt handle the load at the more consistent higher speeds - got a lap in at the end of the day that was pretty reasonable  Put it this way that lap wouldve had me in 4th in Pro am for the whole event - with only 700 hp and used tyres Thurs first official prac day - lap out warm up - then entered a hotlap with above setting and 80% effort took corners 1,2,3 and into 4 car felt awesome -  rear came around out of nowhere bang into the wall near front on at whatever 140 kmph Done, over, gone Just one of those how did that happen apparently as all indications show nothing out of the ordinary Got to spend the rest of the time at the event like I hadnt done before - was actually Ok mainly as I had my family and my boy is 9 and got treated like a rockstar Long trip home, lost a trailer wheel in nowhere land, X5 airbag suspension gave up half way across nullabour and rode on bumps stops (its now completely fine) had to do a 19 hr drive day on day 3 as accommodation got screwed up so just had to keep driving till found a town with some Now to reassess - hopefully the motor and other things are OK but yet to be seen too. There is no easy fix there is no i'll just order that part and get it sent - we'll have a talk to people see what can happen and what the go is but at minimum its rebuild from scratch struts forward and alot of time effort and $ should and if I return and if but maybe/ when  I have the cage tied into the front strut towers - if I didnt have that things couldnt been worse you can say its just a front end but if you know what goes into these cars... you'll know what that actually means in reality   Car was very fast. Disappointing we just didnt get to show it Effort doesnt win you races though     Apparently this is motorsport !  
    • Thanks, will do that.  Thankfully they still feel great.
