What AFR's did your mate get and the difference? mine are a safe 12 - 12.1

ben , my mate left croydon with around 12:1 and ended up at sas with 12.7:1.

to be honest he hasnt had a problem . we actually rang jim at dart late yesterday afternoon about this . he said he has built quite a few 400 + kw gtr engines that have been aggressively tuned by croydon and refuse to give up . he believes it all comes down to how sensible the driver is . he told us he has built around 85 gtr engines in the last 5 years and many of the ones that came in blown up were only making around 250kw with 11.5 :1 mixtures , but were driven as if they were stolen . we're looking forward to visiting dart and meeting jim.

on the CRD graph the AFR is 12.4:1?

Richard, no its not... its sitting 1 division below the 12.5 that is 12, and it bounces along there on the line or 1 pixel above....

Yep, that is what Jim told me also.... he certainly can build a beautiful RB26 that is for sure! I get knocks of 12 most drives, and on the dyno it saw 17-20 at full tilt...

I can't wait till blitz and Marko have run their engines in, as they are or have recently had a DART built motor....

hahaha you were reading my mind!!! I saw you reading the posts, and wrote the above prior to your message.....

Jim @ DART is a great guy, I am certain you could do a power run for only a few $$$$ as a side note he mentioned to me that he was looking at charging $150 per hour dyno time, and that was for just anyone off the street....

I am sure if you mention my car, and SAU he will come to a nice number for you :)

it is well worth the chat with him regardless....

Stace or Paul i can see you guys reading this thread we shlould all organise a BIG Dyno day CRD or DART at the end of the year and see what everyones cars are puting out.

It would be good getting 20 or so GTR's all with different set up and some the same just see what the mods make.

I'm going to have to call CRD Jim on monday also, and tell him how it is going on the mountian roads of Adelaide...

Your not scared of a few little gtst's running on the dyno aswell are you ;) ? be easier to get the numbers for a dyno day if you let them in, I'm sure they don't mind it not being fair you being RB26 and all

The GTRs regularly taken to the track to be thrashed - how do they get tuned? Do you have to specify it'll be a track warrior then get a lower peak KW?

I'm confused I thought that unless the car was pure dyno queen it'd be tuned to give and take punishment??

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      ..this is the current state of that port. I appreciate the info help (and the link to the Earls thing @Duncan). Though going by that it seems like 1/4 then BSP'ing it and using a bush may work. I don't know where I'd be remote mounting the pressure sender... to... exactly. I assume the idea here is that any vibration is taken up by the semiflexible/flexible hose itself instead of it leveraging against the block directly. I want to believe a stronger, steel bush/adapter would work, but I don't know if that is engineeringly sound or just wishful thinking given the stupendous implications of a leak/failure in this spot. What are the real world risks of dissimilar metals here? It's a 6061 Aluminum block, and I'm talking brass or steel or SS adapters/things.

      And if you have to drill the oil block, then just drill it for 1/4" and tap it BSP and get a 1/8 to 1/4 BSP bush. The Nissan sender will go straight in and the bush will suit the newly tapped hole. And it will be real strong, to boot.

      No it doesn't. It just needs an ezy-out to pull that broken bit of alloy out of the hole and presto chango - it will be back to being a 1/8" hole tapped NPT. as per @MBS206 recco. That would be for making what you had in alloy, in steel. If you wanted to do just that instead of remote mounting like @Duncan and I have been pushing. A steel fitting would be unbreakable (compared to that tragically skinny little alloy adapter). But remote mounting would almost certainly be 10x better. Small engineering shops abound all over the place. A lathe and 10 minutes of time = 2x six packs.

      Ahh. Well the block damage is a problem, you really need to run a tap or thread chaser through it to see if the threads can be saved, but any chips are likely to be bottom end bound which is bad. Earls seem to have what you need if you want to stick with mounting direct on the block: https://rceperformance.com.au/parts/earls-straight-adapter-1-8-npt-male-to-1-8-bspt-female.html, but as I said above I'd recommend remote mounting the sender

      I'm not quite understanding or I'm missing steps here, (I appreciate people are trying to inform my brain but I am of the dumb, especially today) - All I want to do is mount the male BSPT of the OEM sender into the system somewhere without it snapping the adapter via vibration. The Nissan sender has a male 1/8 BSPT output. The block has a (very destroyed) 1/8 NPT input. I'm not really sure how a lathe assists with that, and also don't know anybody with a lathe, nor specifically what I would want to buy. I'm not really sure how adding additional adapters creates a better, more leak proof resilient seal here.
