Standard internal Rb20 2 litre that is r32 spec , with a high flow vg30 turbo truck core front mount dump pipe. Some 'mines' ecu a few little mods pod etc, blitz boost controller 290 at the wheels.

I have hit some type of cut, Speed signal cut is the theory at the moment. the dyno graph was heading up still when the power was cut on me. This is on 18 psi. This was at barry's dyno, this arvo.

Enjoy :shake:

Hey this might sound like a stupid question but at what speed did u make peak power.I'm only asking because i had my car on the same dyno yesterday and the peak power and kmh dont add up

By the way top effort with your power output you have to be happy with 290rwhp well done:uh-huh:

Ok it made 304rwhp and 1650 lb torque running 1.08 bar i still didnt get to see my car running 1.25 bar i cant work out why it dont boost as hard on the dyno it must have something to do with load on the engine anyway he didnt do a tune we just put it on the dyno to see how it was running. Barry said he would like to pull a bit of fuel out of the fuel map and then i will see a bit more POWER i will go back in a few weeks once i have some more cash

:thumbsup:

yeah nice power there guys, specially from the RB20 :thumbsup:

a quick question.. FRIGGIN FOOT-POUNDS for torque.. WTF, i dont get it.. is it a straight forward linear conversion like HP-KW or is it logorithmic?

the reason i ask is on the aston martin website (checking out the vanquish after watching bond last night :mad: ) it says the car has 400ft/lb = 541NM..

linear, that would give your car ~2200NM, where'as a LS1 is only 500NM or so.. i dont get it..

someone care to explain?

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
