When I read “12, 12, 17, 24...”, I was like “ooo 24psi, that’s spicy...”
Then comes “....30, 30”, I went :eek::eek::driving::driving: |

By the way, I have no idea what the car will make on 30spi of boost. I would guess about 950whp or so. Gotta see in the FI CAC can dissipate the heat. Will be in a new realm of unknown again.

Coil testing results. As long as you don't get a knockoff, the R35 GTR and the 370z coil packs test out the same. See video.

Sitting here looking at a yellow black car. The pine tree pollen is off the chart. Still patiently waiting for warm weather and no rain. Such a challenge some times.
|
Gonna rinse the pollen off the car today and go for a rip. It will get a wash this weekend if the weather holds out. I am getting a little stir crazy working from home.

No since in doing this until I get a trans that will hold.

^^^^ This is my secret mod. It hurt to post it. LMAO!!!
|
FYI, good video. I am not sure how my car is compared to others. Elmo370z appeared to like it. It is about comfort and soaking up the bumps. A harsh suspension sucks in my book. I prefer a firm compliant one.

Rode like oem

Just ordered my modified subframe from Brian at MA-Motorsports.

It is a bunch of little things that add up to a big gain. |
718whp was fine. Above that and I struggle with traction. Boost by gear will also help. It is just another tool in the tool box.

I am having to slow my roll. Not many folks have keep it running long at this power level. I have elected to do some small changes in hopes of more traction before I put a slick on the car. I have to be careful because too much traction will eat the transmission. I am hoping SOHO comes through on this. Talked with a couple of folks about upgrading to a Tremec T56 Magnum like Grannas uses. Mazworx can make the bellhousing. The problem with that swap is the gear selection. Our trans has a single overdrive. The T56 has a double overdrive. It will be tough to work that out.

Anybody else want to lead? I will gladly step out of the way.

QBE69G, Holinger HS6 or Albins ST6 transaxle
You are that far down the rabbit hole, this much trans is not a big percentage investment Both the Quaife and Holinger can come with helical cut top gear so you don't get deafened by the straight cut gearset whine |

Gonna have to slow the modified subframe down a bit. MA is backed up big time.
|
Took the car out and had some fun today. Can't wait to get the new tires mounted. It was warm today but traction was limited.

Just ordered new front tires to go with the new back ones when I get them installed. Don't want to have different grip levels. If they were just a year old it wouldn't have been an issue but they are over 2 yrs old.

Finally found time to get to the body shop to get my new front bumper painted next week.
|
Forgot to mention, I only made 16.2psi of boost last weekend on my 17psi setting. My plastic intake has a leak. Patiently waiting on my new intake manifold.

Blue= 17psi Ignite Red Green= 25psi Ignite Red Bringing this back from the dead. I am going to take a little TQ away from the midrange to help with traction. |
Didn't realize my peak TQ was a little over 5k rpm at 25psi of boost. Yikes!!!!!!
No wonder it's a damn handful. Power under the curve is awesome. Nick will have his hands full getting it to calm down a bit. I am sure he can handle it. |
Now I know what doesn't work. Try Try again....
|
Thinking about spraying some water/meth to keep the IAT's in check. I normally don't like it but I am pondering it. Trying to keep my mind open to new ideas.
|
Need to have the car tuned on it. Ugg... Not sure on this. I have always stayed away.

Your car on meth. :rofl2:
|
I think I am going to keep my original thought process. If my IAT's get hot, time for a bigger CAC/Intercooler or a turbo upgrade. I am out of my efficiency zone.
