EP3 Type R

[Mugen_B16B]

wat clutch and flywheel u guys using besides stock?

thinking toda 3.8kg fly with excedy clutch

[Philip Lee]

Do u drive a lot during peak hours?

It's not fun with a light flywheel.....

[Nepolian]

Dont see much difference going from 4.7 to 3.8.......spend money on other mods!

hey guys im going USA at year's end, and i plan to come back with PARTS =D
any advice on what to get, how to get them back? lol i have a budget of around 10k

[Perry]

10K wooow thats alot.

[Nepolian]

Alot of the stuff you'd get is quite heavy.......and expensive to post or even carry and be over the weight limit! (referring to sussy, exhaust etc...)

You're really limited to the smaller stuff which is easy to carry....like maybe....intakes, cams and the likes!

The damn dyno played up and they also measured in hp.

I got 164.5hp (Cai + catback) in 4th (speed limiter kicked in using 5th) which converted to around 123kw.

As a comparison, a Toda 2.2 stroked DC5R pulled around 184hp, a CL9 with ecu, Gruppe M, full exhaust pulled 167hp but with a lot less in the mid range than me.

We were overlapping our graphs and he only beat me because my car was running rich over 7000rpm.

Phillip, I have since realised that overlaying our graphs like we did is not accurate. Your car revs to 8500rpm correct? My car was dynod to 7000rpm.

So when we overlayed our graphs we were comparing our power outputs at different RPM - i.e. the scales cannot be overlayed.

A k20 certainly doesn't make more torque/power than a k24 in the midrange

My car makes peak power at 6000rpm so it would be impossible for you to have more midrange torque than me.

Have a look at where my peak power and peak torque occurs on this dyno of my car:



^ this dyno was carried out by a shootout certified dyno dynamics operator

Also, the toda 2.2 DC5r made 198.2hp not 184hp

Oh.. ok.. Well than the invite wont be extended to him in that case.. jokes..

I still waiting to pick mine up.. It arrived in Aust the other day its in Sydney now getting complied.. Should pick it up within a week or 2 ..

Hi Chris,

welcome to "our home" lol.

i think the X axis was measuring speed on our graphs from 101 and not rpm, Y was hp. also i recall our scale was the same.

if the above is correct, what is the implication??

ps. the more i think the more we wasted $35.... it raises more questions than giving answers lolol

thanks

Philip
