[MudRunnerTD]

Half way there! May never get there though damnit! Would be awesome. Happy to test drive someone else's though! ;)

[Ben-e-boy]

I am so close, I still have a small turbo which boosting at the higher limits of its efficiency, and its limiting my power.
Got a water to air intercooler, custom plenum, minor headwork, 12mm pump.
I'm pricing up a gtx3071r at the moment, and next time the head comes off, some oversize valves :D

Then I will be there

[Ben-e-boy]

Winnie will be here soon, he has just had his first taste of diesel power.

[Winnie]

Nah mate don't think I'll ever take it that far.... Hahah. Would LOVE that power though. Like Daz I'm only half way there at the moment. If I make 120-130kW I'd be stoked!

I don't know about 200kw but I wouldn't mind 800nm

You could this on for size.
Pretty sure it'll get the front wheels off the ground.

G'day Trendsetters,

I am currently at 125kw's with my UFI TD05 16G large turbo with a Cross Country intercooler. I could probably get 150kw from the 16G set-up if i use a Diesel Central modified injector pump to suit.

PS, anyhow, i am hoping to get to the 200kw benchmark with another turbo set-up and a Diesel Central modified injector pump soon. I will keep you all posted!

Regards,

RLI

So RLI I see you sold your turbo to Stropp.... what setup will you be going with next?

[Winnie]

I don't know about 200kw but I wouldn't mind 800nm

I wouldn't know what torque my old setup was making, my dyno reading shows 2500N of tractive effort but I don't even know what that is.

[nissannewby]

You may have been lucky to be making 400nm. There's a fair bit involved to even get 700nm. Ask diesel tec when your there.

[Winnie]

Yes he is that's why I'm trying my best to ignore him and Benny! LMAO nah Mat's alright. He's given me some great advice on my setup which is half complete and I am super impressed with it so far. It will never make the type of power that you are looking at but it's enough for me and I'm happy with that!

Yes it's better but not by a lot. Returning from 14-16. I suppose being a wagon with a roof rack, light bar, awning etc.. It's not that bad. Hope it's better with the cooler too. Gotta wait another two weeks for that.

Has it been dynoed yet?

[MudRunnerTD]

I really like the big barrel box and snorkel from Patrol Doctor. Out through the bonnet! Looks insane! And Works!

[Ben-e-boy]

After fitting the new 18G billet wheel Kinugawa turbo set-up.I am now back to square one regarding air in take issues.

Nissannewby discovered on Saturday the new set-up is now collapsing the intake hoses again. The current set-up worked fine with the UFI TDO5 16G turbo set-up, however, the more powerful Kinugawa turbo set-up requires more air-flow.

I spoke with Ben from 4B fabrications & performance tuning and he makes sells an alloy billet kit for $950.00 good for 200kw. However, there is a 3 week waiting list for one.

I also spoke with Steve from PatrolDocta and he advised me that the ZD 30 air-box is good for around the 150kw mark and that sells for $415.00. The large barrel air-box and 4inch snorkel kit sells for around $800.00 and is good for 200kw plus. Steve advised me that he has all these in stock.

I am currently waiting for Fatz fabrications to get back to me with a price.

PS, keep you all informed as i go!

Regards,

RLI


Fatz still haven't got back to me yet so I am not going to bother.
I should be able to pick mine up late next week from a well educated, engineering type bloke from the other patrol forum, and a snorkel from radius fab, HOPEFULLY I should get it dynoed before I fly back to work. :thumbup: :D

[MudRunnerTD]

G'day Trendsetters,

Over the last couple of weeks i have finally achieved the port and polishing of the head, inlet and exhaust manifolds and finally the the turbo. I have opened the waste-gate port from 20mm out to 27mm and the turbo housing from 50 out to 65 and that matches the 3inch dump pipe and gasket. Also trimmed the compressor wheels!

Regards,

RLI

Wow that's a huge port! Did you do that yourself? Got any before and after pics? Would love to see them!

Great stuff Paul,

I'll get into modifying mine this weekend.

Paul, what is this 'alloy billet kit' from 4B Fabrications?

The CC intercooler is 3 weeks away. This week I'll speak to DC about a 12mm pump for hopefully within the next couple of weeks.

That filter assy/snorkel from Patroldocta looks the goods. I'll get onto them this week. Will be interesting to see which filter they use in these. I see the Nissan airbox having it's limits regardless of the lid used.

As far as inlet/exhaust manifolds, I'll stick with the OEM's till I suss out which way to go as far as efficiency is concerned.

I spoke to NPC clutch about the Vipor assy which I'll get within the next couple of weeks.

[Ben-e-boy]

Well I have nearly finished the intake, all Ineed to do now is find a 4 inch 45 degree bend, all the auto store stock bugger all 4 inch piping so I will have to ebay it which means no tune on monday it will be the following week when I get gome from work.

Tomorrow I will make an overflow bottle out of a cheap aluminium catch can and relocate the control wiring for the intercooler.

Slowly getting there.

33383
The safari snorkle ram head is on the right. What I have recently learned about ram heads is that they don't flow much more than not having one, what they do is direct the air into the snorkle far better than not having one, this inturn increases the accelaration of the air through the intake which inproves engine responce.
33384

33385
I have also learned(I think) that turbos dont like to suck or have to work for their air, on the td42's you have to have a bend between the filter and the turbo there is no other way of doing it. But, having 2 bends will increase the amount of work the turbo has to do sacrificing torque and engine responce.

Very good Ben-e grasping it quite well for a sparkie :p

[@GUte]

Hi Marty,

You have obviously played/researched well regarding turbo system particularly on the TD42 diesel.

No disrespect but are you able to substantiate your claims so they don't just look like hearsay, which we see all too often in these forums?

Re the Patroldocta barrel aircleaner. If the panel filters are as good as made out to be, this would work well in place of the barrel filter.

Al.

[Ben-e-boy]

LOL. it is a interesting journey boys.

Just some insight. The patrol doctor airbox and snorkle setup that goes through the bonnet is not much chop. The last few setups I have seen with them have had issue with airflow. To make the numbers they should and have some response the airbox lid was removed.
Paul, your turbo looks the part. Unfortunately the compressor wheel pictured is very close to just a straight copy of the cast wheel. I have never weighed that particular wheel, but from others I can make a educated guess that it would be at most 2g lighter than a cast one. That particular wheel lacks any features for it to be any real inprovement over a standard cast one. Some aero and dimension changes, and few other bits would have helped the cause alot.
Ben, that airbox looks familiar, LOL. You certainly have the right man on the job. I am looking forward to the results of yours. I am not a fan of the GTX that you have and the results from them always intrigue me.

Good luck fellas, I will keep a eye on your exploits.

Marty

Haha yes to some lucky people the airbox is a dead give away to who made it. I have a bit of an information overload from that bloke, but I am sure it will be a winner.

From Kando Dynamic

"We always designs the billet wheel with smallese central as we can, that
means the blade will be bigger even the inducer and exducer size is same.
and blade angle will be higher, so it will offer more airflow than cast
wheel.
By the way, the billet wheel is stronger, the vibration will be smaller on
top end to prevent out of balance."

Eiji Takada

From Kinugawa

"The cast wheel is about 0.125lb and the billet one is about 0.138 lb.
The billet wheel with small central and extended tip can offer more 15% air
flow than the cast one."

Regards,
Bruce

[@GUte]

Lol.
Bruce so you have looked at the photo Paul put up and can see the extended tip?
That wheel has a blade height that is about 1.9mm from memory ,higher than a standard wheel.
Of the top of my head without going and looking at the manufactures spec sheet on it (which I have) the nose is .6mm smaller down to 13.8mm and the hub is reduced by a similar amount. It has no back reduction. The blade angle is also up from 28deg to 75-90deg.
The higher blade angle is not really what we want in a diesel for building boost rapidly.
I have consulted with manufacturer on modifying a design which I have had machined up. About a week later Kinugawa were offering the wheel I approved the design on for sale.

Marty

Noooo that was a quote from Bruce from Kinugawa you whacker!

Folks, i am truly amazed how the Americans are willing to share any turbo diesel information to you. Its a pity, that in this great country of ours, that we have fark-wit diesel mechanic/engineers that think basic diesel engine tune-ups and custom mods are some what of a secret black-art! During my quest for diesel knowledge, the basic diesel mods in this country have been around in the US and Europe for over 20 years.

But unfortunately, over here in Australia, we are been feed bullshit and been ripped off by some unscrupulous operators! Anyhow that will not happen again to this little black-duck!

Excuse me but get your facts right, but maybe after this, your post it could very well refer to you! Obviously there is something I said that maybe hit home? Don't make assumptions sunshine you can't prove with such offence. Being offensive calling one names shows a lack of control and maturity. Get over it! Read Paul's post and you may get an idea.

As far as giving compared to taking, across the forums I attend I give WAY more than I'll ever receive and I'm fine with that and get plenty requests from across the globe which I'm happy to do, so once again get your facts right.

I stand by original post.

[@GUte]

Yeah sorry blokes, there is better things to discuss!

I fitted up the Kinugawa TD05 across three days (fri, sat, sun) and did the pump adjustments listed by Paul. I was able to give it a good run over the last couple of days running from Beechworth down to Woodspoint and back. Bluddy goes nice and the ute was pretty well loaded up. If you fitted one of these to a N/A, it would open your eyes! Works in progress with intercooler, pump, snorkel and airbox etc yet to happen.

[Ben-e-boy]

So far I am only at 180.6kw (145.6rwhp) and about 1700ft-lb tractive effort. I keep blowing intercooler piping off. I need to get some solid piping

I have really only driven 300m into it when the piping blows. I left the mechanic and there is a dirt backroad 1st and 2nd gear were easy going, 3rd gear I wound it on at about 2000rpm..... wheel spin. Hit 4th gear.....more wheel spin:D :bigthumbup:, then the hose blew off.

The first graph is power an boost, the top line is power and bottom line is boost

The second is power and torque, top is power bottom in torque

[@GUte]

G'day mate,

I will ask them all that question today!

Regards,

Paul


That's a great price from DPS if they use genuine.

Not being sceptical but you do wonder why so much cheaper. But then we have seen inflated prices previously when items became the shiz.

A few + years ago I paid $1600 to get the pump reco'd with genuine Zexel parts.

[Ben-e-boy]

Well even though I am 20Kw shy of 200Kw here is a bit of an up date on how it is going.

Yesterday I took it for its first decent drive to Maroochydore and back ( about and hour each way) Mainly highway and a bit of city driving.

With then old turbo ( TD05H-16g small max boost @ 21psi) at 100-110 km/h it would be boosting at around 3-4 psi on a flat road with about 240 degree pyros, nothing wrong there. The new turbo ( GTX3071r max boost @ 31psi) sits on 7-10 psi on the same stretches of flat road with about 210 degree pyros. I think the drop in pyros is largely due to new turbo being in its efficiency zone where the old turbo wasn't
Being at about 2500 rpm when you are on the cam overtaking at highway speeds is amazing. 100km/h to 115km/h is done in literally 1 second, it is pretty much instant, and that is in 5th gear! In 4th 90km/h to 120km is done in 2 seconds.

The power delivery is quick but smooth....very smooth If I had a good auto trans behind it, it would amost be a seamless delivery
Stop start city driving is very good also, If I rev out 1st and 2nd gear to about 3200rpm using as little throttle as possible to achieve that rpm, by the time I have selected the next gear it is at about 2000rpm in the torque zone it is so smooth and a pleasure to drive

Maintaining speed on the typical bruce highway hills is easy I found myself having to back off slowly as I was exceed the speed limit by the top.

I pretty dam impressed with it. Even though I still have an issue with boost leaks or the intake piping collapsing at WOT.

Cheers.

Yeah I am happy with it. Its very driveable, good boost responce. I still get boost leaks and need to control the wastegate better, but on the highway hills especially between Wyong and Sydney it does them with ease. On the trip down I was overtaken on the flat by a 2.8 diesel hilux crossing the Hawksbury river, both driver and passenger giving me the look of your patrol sux, there is a big hill on the southern side of the river, well.......I made it my business to overtake them up the hill at 110 while they were at about 70. 10 minutes later they finally caught up to give me the loser flyby/Lebanese slingshot, both looking at the loaded farm ute differently. Hahahahaha Dominance was stamped hahaha.

I did take Winnie for a spin at camp and was able to break traction in 4th with the 35's at 15psi :biggrin:

Well what can i say........ Last chrissy break on my way to Eden NSW around the Orbost area there was landcrabs that where in the right over taking lane trying to pass vehicles in the left lane and me overtaking them on the wrong side of the road :) ask my mrs, she'll confirm what i did with my 4.5 lol

[Alitis007]

Haha it's so satisfying.

My personal favorite is when they try the slingshot i speed up to match their speed so they can't get infront and watch as their faces fill with fear as another car approaches then i slow back down when they come behind me again lol then let them pass hahahaaa

Hi Paul,

Have been busy with work etc and being a bit crook lately so the Patrol has been taking a back seat.

Still going real well though. The 18G/8cm is a great turbo.

I have sprung a leak in the intercooler which looks to be one of the hoses between intercooler and heat exchanger. I'll look into that in the morn.

I have a spare inlet manifold that I want to combine an intercooler with when I get a chance. I'll clean up the exhaust manifold also.

We have a local fella who does castings etc and he was saying he could do a cast airbox that takes the panel filter quite cheap. With castings you can work flows a bit better. Hopefully some time in the near future I can look into this.

Hi @GUte,

Mate that W/A cooler looks great mate, whee is the heat exchanger mounted? A build thread for your ute would be great or some more pics posted here would be great.

Cheers Darren

G'day Al,

It is a credit to you, nice piece of workmanship on the Patrol mate!

Have you had the chance to dyno tune your Patrol to date?

If you have is it possible to share your results with us?

PS, how is your health, i hope things are going fine for you and your family now.

Regards,

Paul

Hey Paul,

I've never been chasing 200kW mate, I haven't made any changes with my setup because I am so happy with it at the moment. My fuel pump is on its way out and when it goes I will look into tickling it up a bit but for now I am happy.

Dear Winnie,

You can have it all, become a sex slave at the Mardi Gras and you could be driving around with a 1000hp Patrol or a Ferrari 458. lol

PS, Repco do exchange rear ends. lol

I haven't dyno tuned it yet mate. I thought I'd get the inlet and exhaust manifolds done prior. If I dyno'd it prior to the manifolds being done I'd be thinking, what if!

I want to implement the W2A into the inlet manifold by way of a bolt on flange to the new plenum. At the other end I'll make a curved funnel type inlet from the turbo. I need to purchase a new intercooler core. Which one I'm not sure atm. I'll think about this one.

I need to buy some alum sheet in the right grade and thickness and get into it. Anyone know the grade of alum used?

Yeah the ticker is out of normal rhythm so I need to stick my tongue into a power socket for a zap to kick it back into it's correct rhythm. :thumbup:

[Ben-e-boy]

I think a 7000 series aluminium 7075 could be wrong
