Hi guys, just made 340AWKW at CRD today with our street exhaust.

I have yet to see the Dyno graph but jim said the car made more low end about the same mid range and more top end with the JUN plenum and QF45 throttle body.

tomorrow i'm going over to but the 4"exhaust on and then we will do another power run and just check it over to make sure everything is ok!

Last time the race exhaust made another 30AWKW on top, with out any tuning.

I'll post up again later to tell you how it all goes.

Cheers

Hi,

we ran the car up again with the 4" exhaust today.

we made another 20AWKW =360AWKW

I beleive the problem is now that the airbox we had made(which is designed for max power with the headlight out).Could now be starving the car of air with the head light in.

The car is pretty mad to drive!

The next mods to the car with be a new intercooler and a fibreglass funnel to the airbox from where the head light is.

A BIG thanks goes out to Jim and the gang at Croydon Racing Developments for the great job tuning the car .

Another reason for not making more power with the big exhaust is that the turbo's can't keep the pressure up with the new plenum.

I would like to try a set of GT-RS turbo's on the car.

I think that the good old GT-SS turbo's are pretty much out of puff!!

we'll see what has to be done to make some more power down low.

Cheers

Sorry i forgot to add that was on 22psi down to 21psi andf running BP 98.

shit so thats 612hp at all fours or am i mis-calculating :)

i dont doubt the figure i just wondered if i worked it out right and damn thats impressive numbers for little low mounts :D

good luck

Brad

Sorry that's not right.

22>21 made 340AWKWs quite exhaust

22>21 made 355awkws big exhaust.

27 psi made 360big exhaust

as you can see the turbos are out of puff by then anyway.

I'm not sure how much that is at the wheels in HP.

Again thanks to the Guys at CRD!

Congratulations :D

Looks like Jim is definitely on top of these GT-SS turbos :O

What are you plans for the car? I wouldn't put a pair of GT-RS on a stock capacity RB26 if I were you. The car won't be anywhere NEAR as fun to drive.

Full mod list?

i belive this car runs a JUN 2.7lt strocker and JUN plenum i would like to see what GTRS can do

I'm not quite sure what an extra 100cc would do in spooling up the GT-RS, but I'm interested to see if 600hp is willing to take the chance and show us :D

All the UK tuners (who have been testing with the GT-RS's for the last 3 years) readily agree that you need at LEAST a 2.8 stroker or preferably a 3.0 OS Giken kit to get the GT-RS's to spool early enough for a road car.

From what I've noticed building a 3ltr then comparing it to the 2.5 and 2ltr, it appears for every 500cc increase you improve spool by ~600rpm.

Its the torque that makes the biggest difference.

I don't really understand the following that these GTRS's have on an RB26 , I cant see the point of extra capacity to excite turbo's that are so so to start with . 2530's would have far better response than GT-RS's (GT2871 52 trim's) so what gives ? If someone went to the same lengths with these turbo's (2530) as WilliamsF1 did with GT-SS's surely the torque at the wheels would be adequate and very progressive . I think Gary mentioned some good times with them but cant I remember the numbers .

Cheers A .

Hows it going 600hp

Do you think you have found the limit of the GT-SS

at the 360awkw? (great effort by the way)

I hate it when people talk what boost by when (cos it really has no relationship to power and torque) But i would be interested to see the torque curve you achieved as to me it's the most important thing as it's what drop you back in the seat and keeps you there lol.

ps great to see you posting results again cheers

    • 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.
