Ken - my car is making 264rwhp (2wd) on steve's dyno before it hits the speed cut at around 6900rpm.

Basically as gav said he hasn't picked up much more power with the PFC he is using now - but I'm sure that will change.

I got 220 at all 4 with 1 bar on Hendos and 260 at 1.2 bar ( I think). That was on std puter and it ran fine.

So the reason it makes more power in the Mines is the lack of speed cut allows a higher rev ?

To see if there is any advantage , see what it gets at 6900rpm.

Cheers

Ken

Ken - wtf is 1.5 or 2 way - I'm sure I should know, but can ya tell me anyway:)

Not 100% but 1.5 supposedly locks under power and unlocks on coast ( ie lifting off around a corner. )

2 way locks on power and coast and opens at neutral throttle.

Nice...diffs sound good.

I am going to plug the puter into my car & test it out. The deal atm is $200 exchange with my standard one. It's gotta be better I would think, but I will make sure.

Even though I don't know gav very well, I feel confident that if things weren't right he wouldn't hang me out to dry.

Nah , would be cool .

Cheaper than paying for a speed cut but be aware that some of the Jap chips are a bit aggressive with the timing and our third world octane fuel.

Ken - if youre still there...

A mate is gonna make me some front pipes on sat. Gonna cost me for the stainless piping (should get change from $100) & a bottle of the sphincter of the universe. Making 2.5" to 3". Interesting to see if there is any improvement, but for that price it's gotta be good value:uh-huh:

Me thinks without the dumps , it's gonna be very marginal.

Make sure you give him the the sphincter of the universe AFTER the job.:D

Btw , R33 GTR dumps are bigger and flow better than R32 GTR dumps.

useless fact 1

BTW Ken - what turbos were you running at 1 bar or higher?

Thought you said that was too much for the standard jobbies?

Gav is running 1 bar at the moment - I wouldn't mind doing the same.

Hendo was doing his usual more is better.

I said that now you have had a play , turn the wick down cos they is only std.

Cheers

    • Nah. Was just wondering if you were having a small stroke or if there was some slur/gaf/inside joke that I wasn't aware of.
    • That was a fark up, it's Salamanca Place I was thinking of. And now I'm curious as to what potential slur/gaf I have caused with Salamander Road, ha ha!
    • Actually everyone on the roads was really well behaved. The only person that did any minor tailgating was a local hoon in a Turbo Focus. Unfortunately we weren't going the same way so there was no grand initial D touge battle. Lots of people pulled over and let me through. The amount of "Hey man nice car, omg skyline, nice 34 man woo" was suprising. Like really suprising. Like almost annoying. My partner was obviously surprised, she'd never seen anyone in the real world point out the car/like the car/want to chat about the car before, so to have like 3 people per day mention it was notable, I could finally say SEE? SOMEONE THINKS THEY'RE COOL. Everyone was also pretty suprised about the weather. Every day was dry and about ~13-14C. Mount Wellington had a sign that said they close the gates at 9pm and I was heading up there at about ~7:30. It was VERY apparent that conditions were getting significantly worse by the minute on the way up and down. The road on the mountain was terrible though, it's no driving road. I have various suspension related questions now. Luckily it was only about 20 minutes from where we were staying to the top of the mountain as said Google maps. We only had the 2 nights in Hobart. We went to the Farm Gate Market though which was really good - And went down to the Hastings Thermal springs/caves down there during the day. I'd definitely be up for going back again, so luckily there's a few more sights yet to see. Didn't get to do the west coast/queenstown/cradle mountain so this was supposed to be a 'scouting' trip anyway of sorts if I were to one day do/take part in/organize a more car-focused trip. As for the boat, it wasn't bad. Well it was bad, but not in the way you're thinking. We did the night trip which leaves at 6:45 (though you have to be there ~2 hours earlier) and arrives the next morning at about 6am. There is nothing to do on the ship. If you plan accordingly and bring a book/tablet/show to watch/charger you can just chill out, take some Travacalm and just sleep through it. The food there is an extremely basic buffet that costs $32 a plate, or $14 for a $3 pizza. The way back we had a travel kettle and a few different types of cup noodles and made our own tea/coffee in the room. This was a far superior way to do it. At the very least book one of the rooms with beds. I guess as we were in the off season we didn't have room mates. You get an option for rooms with 4 beds (2x bunks) or a room with just the two bottom beds. There's also some option for a deluxe queen bed but it's much pricer. We've been on sleeper trains in Asia before so we figured this is similar (and it was)
    • You just gotta be really, really, really clear and decisive with what you want your end product to be. 99% of people who want this conversion aren't "I want to run a 295 front tyre!" so they don't really need the widebody. They just want the OEM body to look a little less dumpy, so bonnet, bar, skirts job done with some camber, stretch, slam. It's when you want that, but then decide to pivot later you get big problems. See also if you're willing to get an all in one fibreglass bar, and you're willing to accept fibreglass problems like cracking the entire item on a driveway, instead of just a piece attached to the bottom, etc etc etc. Decide this all before buyin'.
