in my experience the 2530's come on about the same as stock turbo's(3500rpm), were as cars wich have GT-RS's kick hard at 5000rpm.

What do you mean by "come on"? A stock GTR seems to make 1kg/cm boost by about 3300RPM under load. There is no way 2530s will do that.

All the ones I've seen (I'm not saying it can't get better) make 1 bar at just under 4500RPM.

Here is the dyno graph for Antz car. I took a pic of them yesterday. The dyno reads 10% and reads 360rwhp = 396rwhp taking into consideration10% loss. This works out to just under 300rwkW and Im sure if we were to run the car on a calibrated dyno that it would read 300rwkW.

that is a great result mate. 2530s on a GTR is a nice combo.

I'm not to sure on this "their dyno is low so I ad 10, divide by two, plus my age, times 11 equals the true figure" business though. to me that graph says 360hp. if their dyno is not correctly calibrated then they should get it fixed and you should probably take the car somewhere that has acurate, operating equipment. otherwise you are just speculating so what's the point of having it dyno'd for a power figure in the first place?

to me that graph says 360hp.

LOL, come in your car and race and see if its not 400rwhp. This dyno reads 10% low and has been verified over and over and if anything the dyno reads slightly lower than 10%. We don't really give two shits what it reads in the end because we're not there for the dyno, we're there for Matt Spry which is an expert tuner. If we want to see the power, we'll take it to another dyno that is accurate or hell one that reads higher than normal...then you'll believe the car makes 500rwhp with n1 and standard fuel pump just cause the dyno said so.

otherwise you are just speculating so what's the point of having it dyno'd for a power figure in the first place?

Speculating? Read above, we're not speculating but at the worst, misestimating by 2-3 % either way. Point of having it dyno'd for a power figure? LOL...it wasnt to get a power figure....it was to tune the car with the recent addition of N1 turbos. And anyway, it is a trialled and proven combination: N1 turbos make 300rwkW and thats not 360rwhp.

In my experience, no, they don't.  A few facts, we get 1 bar out of the 2530's at under 4,000 rpm on the RB26.  The GTRS moving parts (compressor, shaft and turbine) weigh 25% more than the 2530 moving parts.  So there is simply no way that they can be as responsive, given all else being equal.

This experience is not unique, the 2 fastest GTR's at Tsukuba again this year where both running 2530's.  If the GTRS's where as responsive and made more power, I am sure the unlimited budgets would have funded them.

:)

Before my engined failed, I was getting the same boost almost 1,000 revs higher with GT-RS terbs, so even with "tweaking" the cam timing, it just won't be possible to get the same response out of the larger terbs as SK says.

I'm believe with the head work, cams and internals that I've had done to support high RPMs that I will be able to reap the benefits that these terbs should offer over the 2530s. Will need to wait until I get the motor rebuilt ( again ;) ) to quantify the benefits (if any).

Ant - nice work mate, great that the stock AFM's and pump managed that much!

that is the way a graph should look :wassup:

Sorry mate did not get a print out of the boost curve, all I could tell you is that we managed to get that power @ 17.75pds which sounds about right to me.

Ant...do you have a graph with a boost curve?

Sorry mate did not get print out of the boost curve, all I could tell you is that we made that power at 17.75pds. It was enough to blow the intercooler piping off as well.

that is a great result mate. 2530s on a GTR is a nice combo.

No need to fuss about this, as I will do a power run on Chiptorques dyno which will give another result all together. I know that all dyno's read differently to one another but as far as I'm aware I am adamant that the power figure is closer to 300rwkw than anything else.

The power curve seems a bit "peakier" with full power a bit later in the rev range than I would have expected with 2530s.

The link below is what I achieved with what should be laggier GT-RS terbs. Note that there had been minimal setup of cam timing and boost was a moderate 17 psi or so.

Nice going Gav, 473hp is very nice indeed. GT-RS turbs are laggier though.

Things to note, is that my turbos are not 2530s and in fact they are not even ball-bearing, hence the spool up delivery is certainly not as instant as bb turbochargers.

Even my bros. gets ahead of me in the lower rev range and he has an FJ20 (na block) with a GT30R!

Ahh.... sorry Antz, that's what happens when I don't read the thread correctly!

Hope to have some reliable mid 550rwhp after the next rebuild and with a bit of work should be able to bring on the boost a bit sooner and eliminate the terb shuffle (although it does get other driver's attention when it sounds like a train is approaching them!)

    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
