  1. I see about 80% injector duty at 431whp
  2. indeed it is! keeps up with 600cc bikes no problem
  3. i ran a stock regulator for a while with a walbro and stock ecu/turbos and had no problems. it ran a bit rich thats all. still revved out though
  4. Rolled my car onto the dyno last week. Setup is as follows: Stock r32 longblock, unknown km stock cams/cam gears Precision 6235r billet BB turbo OBX manifold 44mm gate 3" exhaust 3" charge pipes Ebay intercooler splitfire coilpacks power fc d jetro with fcedit OS giken twin disc Snow progresive methanol injection 550cc injectiors, walbro 255lph redline 20w-50 oil cometic intake manifold/itb gaskets We did a base run and produced 370whp @18 psi Tuned the afrs and timing and got 430whp on straight 94 octance fuel with conservative timing turned the boost up and turned on the methanol. Boost spiked to 22psi and settled to 20, made 473whp revving to 7000rpm with torque falling off since boost was falling off as well. it kept making more power as we added more timing but we decided to leave it be Good power can be had with a stock rb26 longblock! going to redyno with a new boost controller and try to hit 500whp..just need tio rev that ***** out to 7800! methanol works wonders at higher boost. car feels amazing in 3rd and 4th gear
  5. i run an ebay intercooler and it works awesome!
  6. hmm ill have a look at my engine bay and see what i can do for a torque strap. Im thinking a strut tower bar style (two heim joints with adjustable rods) what would be the best anchoring point? Im thinking the subframe (weld a tang) but im worried about the subframe cracking. The stok z rails arent the stoutest things either.
  7. sorry i was reffering to mtnickles post
  8. its also much easier to swap wheels, housings, fix leaks, etc... and with a turbo blanket the heat is not bad at all in the engine bay. a 280z vented hood help a bit.
  9. That was my shifter setup i used for my swap glad you could use the idea! just an fyi for anyone who uses that setup though, make sure you reinforce the shifter plate that the hyme joint bolts to using sheetmetal and washers. use lots of loctite and lockwashers as its hard to get to if it rattles loose.
  10. can you show me a link for the poly l series mounts? couldnt find them on the site anywhere
  11. Have you modified your y pipe coming off the turbos? I found it to be one of the best mods... and its free
  12. I have a rb26 swapped 240z making decent torque. Unfortunatley I decided to use the OEM s30 engine mounts for the swap instead of utilizing the gtr insulators. Now I have decided to upgrade my mounts to something more stiff but want to retain my original fabrication work. is there any stiffer/more durable engine mounts available for the s30? I am not looking for hockey puck mounts.. i want a bolt on solution. I tried using an aftermarket mount from my local parts store and it lasted about 3 pulls before breaking in half and put a nice dent in my hood. I am now back to the OEM 40 year old datsun mount which is holdinng up decent but I am a bit concerened.
  13. oh boy! A simple change of a hotside will net 100hp! Must be some super crazy exhaust gas drawing turbine housing powered by nuclear fission!
  14. thats the answer i was looking for. yes i heard about the roller pilot, and the disadvantages to using one.
  15. care to elaborate? when did you experience the noise
  16. what are you using for shocks? I love your fuel system! Top notch!
  17. also... shifting into reverse is never an easy task it seems with any tranny. Most of the time you need to shift to 1st then reverse to slow down the input shaft for a smooth reverse gear engagment. to really test if your clutch is "dragging", park on flat level ground, put it in 1st and hold the clutch in all the way. with the parking brake off see if the car creep forward...
  18. I need some insight on my twin disc situation. I am running a OSgiken twin disc with sprung hub centers. Tranny is a z32. About a month after clutch install my tranny started developing a very odd noise when releasing the clutch. I could duplicate the noise in any gear but only during take off, switching between gears when up to speed produces no noise. I also get rumble from the tranny at low rpms under load in any gear. I decided to tear apart the tranny thinking my input shaft bearing cage came apart. The input shaft bearing was in ok condition but i changed it anyways. i also inspected the pilot bushing for wear. Had about .010" clearence between the input shaft and pilot bushing. I did not have a new one so decided to reuse the old one (perhaps a mistake, but it did not seem excessivley worn). I threw it all back together and the noise from take off went away. about 200 miles later the noise returned, but much less severe. The noise I am talking about is almost like a rattling noise. Im almost certain its the input shaft rattling.Changing th bearing probably just lessened the severity. The noise under load at low revs remains. This is not the twin disc rattle that everyone is talking about with the clutch pressed down fyi. This is a different noise. Now my question.. any twin disc users care to share their experiences? I have read about similar situations as mine and everyone says its normal. in fact, this is what nismo has to say about their twin disc: The sports clutch discs and light weight flywheels, which are designed and manufactured to increase capacity for higher output and to improve clutch response, may cause the transmission or bearings to make a rumbling noise which is not present when using the original Nissan production parts. Such noise is particularly likely to occur when idling or when accelerating and decelerating at around 2000 rpm. Please be aware that this rumbling is not due to any defect in the parts. It almost seems to me though that the more worn your tranny is, the more noise it produces. Is this true? I am willing to live with this awful noise if its not causing any harm. Could the pilot bushing be the cause? it did not seem excessivley worn.
  19. what release bearing and sleeve did you use?
