Thought i'd share. My little white girl, is off to the autoshop, she's receiving some autronic cdi enhancements, a new set of cams, new valve springs, adjustable exhaust sprocket, custom catch can, custom overflow bottle, shift light setup and a nice tune. When i get her back on friday she should be singing to the tunes of about 240 - 250 rear wheel kilowatts.

I can't wait to get her back!

Best week ever for a long time.

Cheers

bwahahahahahahaha

you have offended me sir, this can only be settled with a duel

...

go race him wolfiee

ill shine in my own special way

My shinning white lady glady accepts your duel BJ!

Autronic cdi is an ignition system for those who don't know. Capacitive discharge ignition, you start needing it when you start blowing out the spark in the cylinders because the air is too dense. It's not really a power upgrade mod on its own but gives you room to move and add more boost and definately increases the response from the car.

BJ doesn't know what cams are going in it though muahahaha..hint replacing valve springs, lifters, etc.....

Still i bow down to GTR launch, but not your roll on!

hott, i'd love some procams with big valve springs, but too much money *tear* better spent on a new engine for me.

I was under the impression that SR20s don't flow well enough even with a standard turbo.

burty by a mile :p

Till you snap that rocker arm :(

Till you snap that rocker arm

I've got a Rocker Arm Stopper kit going on as well to prevent such shenanigans!@#!

208kw, im bit past that stage now.

when we went on that cruise it was 230kw at all 4 and running like a dog.

since ive had the cat gutted (was broken in pieces and blockin the exhaust bigtime), new single bov ventin to atmo and a new boost controller (avcr's are puss) and I gotta say im finally very happy with the car again

car has heaps more topend from the cat gone, hits boost twice as hard and actually holds boost between gears now, it was a slug compared to how it drives now ;) ill be makin a update in a few short weeks

bring on that rolling start nigga

rocker stopper kits are the shiz, and its rare for the rocker are to actually break, whats not rare is for them to jump out of their location and to become dislodged under high rpm. Still we've added new valve springs and lifters and the rocker arm stopper kit to ensure that doesn't happen. If you run the correct spring rate you technically shouldn't need the rocker stopper kit, prefer to over engineer it and make sure they stay in place though! :)

Nice BJ, nice, will be interesting to see how they go against each other.

So when the hell are we organising another cruise? I think it's come time.

race day, august 30th?

Wicked man, i might start thinkin about wasting money on the engine bay once iv got mine lookin sweet.. gotta get a few dings and scratchs sorted, nothing major but i want it to look nice first, then maybe some 2nd hand wheels, and front mount.. damn this is turning into a money pit already!

nice power dude.

They aren't stock rims, r32 gtr rims by the looks of it.

nice curve, pulls hard and doesnt taper off until very late in the range, gw

Aren't they R32 GTST rims?

Nah im sick of spending money on the car now, life has too much more to offer :)

Not sure yet but thinking about selling the gtr and purchasing another stock car for another buildup down the track when ive got a few things sorted and more income.

The next car I build though, its going to be done right, and done with a bigger goal in mind.

Big single, motec, 400+rwkw min. Ive got a car in mind but nothings certain yet so I wont say

It will come, and when it comes it will come like me in enigmas mum.. hard

haha I win!

wolfieee, that's bloody nice. What turbo are you running in that?

My car isn't quite right yet, got the turbo in but i'm having some weird idle issues I need to sort out.

so what are your next group of mods wolf?

They just backed off the power (SR20DET peak power is at about 6400rpms), unsure why the boost dropped back to 18psi in the latter part of the graph though, already asked the question (could have been because they backed off), will get him to have another look at the tune and get it spot on, on the dyno it looks like it tails off, but on road performace is phenomenal, torque increased by over 15% through the midrange thanks to the cams, so even though on paper the power curve and boost curve look like they come on late, the torque curve is much higher through most of the rev range compared to the last map, so full boost at 4000rpm isn't indicative of how the car feels on the road. It has serious useable torque anywhere from 2500rpm and onwards, but gives you a serious kick in the ass when you hit 4000rpm and above.

For the torque increase i got, the mods were definitely worth it, plus the engine response with the cdi is exceptional.

I'm going to sort out some traction issues from here, i'd say a mechanical LSD is on the cards and a new gearset won't be to far behind either.
