and its still stuggling to get any decent power :rofl:

Its so hard to listen to these whale songs... gives me a headache.

*sigh*

More power than you Mr extra 1/2 litre :)

Don't believe me? Come on down and SHOW me biaaaaatch :Bang:

Nengun reakons next Friday for my coils, so It'll be touch and go if I can beat a stocker (I'm loving 1/2 throttle).

Also, my car may not even run as it looks like we'll have WELL over our limit of cars wanting a run... and like I said I'm there every f$%^&ng week.

camma and other travlers get spots reserved of course.

Have some larger V8's comming for fun :rofl:

Well, to be honest I don't know... but Squealy's GTR put out 260 rwkws on a cranky day.

My car will splutter its way to 190ish rwkws, although it still can't do it on the road without new coils (soon as its boosts over 12 -14 psi, it dies... Nenguns have had a hold up)

ARM85 may make 120 rwkws if he is lucky... he he he

Ummm... there is a GT30 equiped VL turbo I'd expect would make some power. Plus a lot of the usual V8's and stuff (out here everyone loves their commonwores).. That said last night I had a real struggle getting past a falcon (EB-ED 1993ish)... it had some balls :D

Hopeing that Stolly will bring his R33 GTR, apparently is got some big nuts.

Top day Anthony, thanks for organising it. I rattled off 184rwkw from the 4 cylinder but with a few boost problem sorted I should be able to squeeze a little more out of it. It was good to meet a couple of the SAU lads. See you at the next one!

What were some of the other results that I missed?

Thanks for making the trip Camma!

The standout was the Maroon VL Turbo with the huge GT30 hi mount. It had to be re straped three times :burnout: and made 1333.8 NM of tourque... and 270kws :P

Ummm, other than that there were some standout shi%^ers, including the R33 running nos hacking its way to 120kws, the Yellow NAT VL which claimed 200rwkw prior to the day, and rolled 141.

Had a stocker VX S pac comp at the end, with 114 and 122 kws.

Fun day though, next one will be a lot bigger - with promo girls and stuff. Will keep you all posted on that one.

No no no gents

120rwkws - turbo with nos shot. Its sounded like a sick dog though, claimed there was more in it and HP didn't know how to use a dyno.

It sounded like it was missing, backfiring and running rich and lean all at the same time.

Yesterday another Skyline who wouldn't run on the day came in (N/A), young guy.

Ran 113rwkws - which is pretty good I thought, nice and smooth too.. Told him he should've entered, really neat car too.

    • GCG is a good company, they're a major distributor for Garrett in Japan as well.
    • Nah, OEM washer bottle and brake fluid reservoirs are fine I don't know what it is with the plastic that Mazda used, some plastics, like the washer bottle and brake fluid res are fine, and still look new after 20 years use, where as the coolant expansion tank, and PS reservoir, that I replaced with new OEM items when I first got the car, turned yellow and started getting brittle a few years later If the dirty yellow stained plastics didn't trigger me there wouldn't be an issue, but they did, much like the battery bracket....... Meh As for going back to work full time to support car stuff, nope, why, because I own a Mazda NC MX5, not a Nissan R series Skyline 🤣
    • I've never heard of CJ-motor, so can't advise you on them. I'd just go straight to GCG for a GCG highflow though. Seems no point to use a middleman. I'm somewhat surprised that the price on the CJ site is lower than the GCG retail price. Even though CJ would get a discount of some sort, you would hardly expect them to give up so much margin. Maybe the price is out of date? Having said that "I'd go to GCG"...when I did my highflow, I went to Hypergear. I did this https://hypergearturbos.com/product/rb25dethighflow/#tab-dyno-results with the R34 OP6 450HP profile. With the BB centre (extra $400) and intially with the standard boost actuator, but I eventually got him to send me the high pressure one when I got to the point of being able to actually use it. Ends up costing the same sort of money as the GCG highflow, but this is, of course, the turbo that I KNOW has a shorter length core and so moves the comp cover rearwards. The GCG apparently doesn't do that. My mechanic also swears by the GCG highflow, given that we have another turbo rebuilder who does something essentialy the same as theirs, using Garrett wheels. He says it stands up at really low revs and makes good power. I haven't pushed my HG highflow past ~240-250rwkW yet (should have a little more in it, but unclear how much) and it does have a fairly gentle boost ramp. OK, it's much better now that I have gotten my boost controller tuned up on it.  A lot of my earlier unhappiness was because I couldn't keep the wastegate flap as closed as it needed to be (including some mechanical issues). I'd still prefer it to boost up nearly as quickly as the stocker, and it certainly a bit slower than that. So maybe the GCG one is worth the first look (for you).
    • Ok thanks 🙂 I will higly consider this. Any "known" company for a good reviews and experience to send that off? Is that CJ-motor good one? Or go straight to GCG site? I need to use VPN to even find some of those "shops" let alone access them 🙂 
    • You can literally put in as much WMI as it takes to quench the combustion totally (and then back it off a little, obviously), and it will keep making more and more power. The power comes from the cooling effect of the water (and the meth) and the extra fuel (the meth, which also has massive octane). It is effectively exactly like running E85. One might be slightly better than the other, but they are damn close. But with either you can lean on the boost or the timing (or both) waaaay more than with just petrol and the results are similar. Here's the first thing I googled for an anecdotal bit of evidence. Can't access the attachment without being a gold member, but it is there for the getting if able to, or searched up elsewise perhaps. https://www.hpacademy.com/forum/general-tuning-discussion/show/wmi-vs-e85/
