You got a fair bit of power given the weight of your car. You should of taken the GT and SS not only high end but up to 100km/h as well.

I think traction / throttle control is my problem 0-100 even with 275s :) I see the car still near me so I open the throttle up more wanting it to go faster but I must still be wheel spinning, I’m concentrating too much to realise lol.

Had a clubsport trying to catch me from 50-100 the other day, I was running stock 7psi ‘not expecting to race’ & we seemed to be even ‘wish I was running 12psi :)

309.6hp = 230.87kW for ~1.3 tonne

Actually my car is supposedly 1390 kg, it was weighed when at the EPA, I'm not sure if there was someone sitting in there not when they got that figure, I assume while it was on the dyno getting tested for emissions 'which it failed 3 times lol' it was weighed.

I guess the skyline guys I talked to were right when they said that the problem with these gtsts are that there are quite a few out there with poor suspension/tyres therefore it doesn't matter how much more power they add to their car they can't launch properly. That probably explains why you do well up top when traction isn't an issue.

Are they R34 N1 turbos or R34 GTR turbos?

ok, just looked and I think the turbos say Garrett A/R T3, can't tell if its a T or a 3 tho...

Also what colour injectors?

The injector tops are a dark yellow/orange sort of colors

cheers

Ahh ok

If they have the A/R written on the front then they're not R34 N1 turbos unfortunately. Prolly just the 34 GTR ones.

And if they're a yellowy coloured injector top they're most probably standard.

Ahh ok ...

If the turbos have got an A/R rating on the front, then they aren't R34 N1 turbos.

They may well be R34 GTR items but you'd have to get them looked at.

And yellowy coloured injectors are the colour of the standard injectors

Hope that helps :rant:

My car has been dyno tuned yes... My power curve is as follows:

dyno_7.10.04.jpg  

I'd really like to know my torque.  On an old dyno sheet I had a peak of 3400 lb when I was making 292 rwhp, how you convert that into an estimated Nm I dont know!?

IT of 56deg?

someone has been playing with the figures a bit...

I just did a quick search and found that 1 ft.lb = 1.356Nm

so in your case 3400lbs = 4610.4Nm :rant:

The sensor was off yeah, there'd be a few kw in inaccuracies there. I’ll get it dyno’d again one day.

LMAO Holy shit wouldnt that have some throw back!! Nar I'd guess it would have to be somewhere around 500 Nm. I'm such a yutz, I read the wrong line on my old dyno sheet, its more like around 1100.

huh, well I must have gotten a different conversion then

TORQUE RANGE: 50600 ft.lbs./68814 Nm NBT* (Nut Busting Torque): 1000 ft.-lbs./1356

Nm Max. Torque: (Forward)-625 ft.-lbs./848 Nm; (Reverse)-700 ft.-lbs. ...

so thats aboviously wrong!, my bad :chairshot

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
