I think you are confused on the difference between a dual clutch transmission and a dual plate clutch.

oh thought he just said clutch my bad.

I figured you'd be familiar with how the gtr transmission operated, having owned one.

:|

I know the transmission we were talking about clutch setup.

The benefits being discussed are relevant to the DCT, not a multiplate clutch. The point of the clutch you bought is just to increase torque handling without increasing diameter or spring pressure.

The DCT has a pair of clutches that dramatically reduces the period of time where power is not being transmitted to the wheels.

ummm i'm still callin bullshit on 99% of what you say dude.

:gtfo2:

:) ok just keep hating poor kid.

enjoy this while it lasts. :tup:

the "feel" of a 500whp 370z is much different than a 500whp GT-R, why? well turbo lag gives you quite the sensation of OMG this is fast, since you can really feel that torque spike when you hit full boost

a 500whp GT-R is still on stock turbo, meaning it will spool practically instantly, the torque curve believe it or not is relatively flat, with almost no lag in response

in a sense yes, but you cant jump from 5psi to 22psi without upgrading things like cooling, fuel injectors, ect.

on my turbo eclipse, i increased boost from 5psi to 7psi without problems after swapping the BOV, but when i wanted to increase the boost from 7psi to 15psi, i had to upgrade my injectors, install an intercooler, oil cooler, trans cooler, WBO2 sensor(lets you know if your running lean or rich), and retune the car to run with all of the upgrades

now that car is completely different than the 370z is but essentially you have to do the same things to run more boost without destroying your engine(not all the same things, but you get the point)

I think someone said it best..That's why they call the GT-R..."Godzilla"

This is so true the car's will feel different good post:tup:


[QUOTE=MyKindaGuise;1975787]Well starting to spool and full boost are quite different..But thats why I asked for confirmation because most of the videos ive seen arent exactly clear. So are they spooling at 3k or full boost by 3k? Even so that is lower than what I thought I saw and quite releaving.[/QUOTE

I dont mean to sound rude but I think you need to look at some dyno graphs and not youtube videos to look at when turbos on these cars hit full boost.The smaller GT28 turbo are full boost at 3000-3500 rpm's on these car's, my car with stage 3 turbo's hit full boost by 4500 rpm's 14 psi.

I out run a second gen gtr from a roll pretty bad. im running 540 whp. thats where the comparison stops tho. It is far pass anything in the z. that gtr is a beast man.

Can we haz modz?

Attachment 56366

if anyone is still interested in the original purpose of the thread heres a vid, check 1:40 and 2:16 for the black TT 370z Nismo to race the tuned (and I think upgraded turbo) GTR. The first one the Z actually keeps up, hard to see because its dark. The end is the two TT 370z going @ it. :icon17::tiphat:


by the way am not condoning street racing by posting this vid, simply for the purpose of the thread. :tup:

no pictures. surprise! you don't actually have one

Both Have Been Warned!

Thx finally

The purpose was to discuss and nowhere does it need videos of illegal racing

If thats all left for people to believe one way or another then this threads run its course.
