some R33s are just a freak like mine. just has POD filter and 3.25'' exhaust and pulls away from other 33s with the same mods. and it keeps up with other cars who say they usualy beat 33s by a fair bit. kept p with a couple of 32 GTRs and beaten late model WRX STis. putting it on the dyno next month gona see what is gets. some have had a stab at the 250 RWHP mark.

Yeah it's strange (to me) that most stocks with 3" exhausts & POD are getting round the 240-250rwhp! I only got 202rwhp with those mods! that was before I put a dump pipe in, haven't checked the power difference since. Wouldn't be that much higher would it??

remember dynos are a tuning tool, all are different.

i wouldnt worry too much about the power output, as long as it makes gains when u do mod it, then its ok.

if u want to check the performance, take it to the strip/track and test your skills, and the ability of the car.

True, but I would've thought bringing it to the same place, Hyperdrive, and being the same dyno as the other guys with higher figures, it would've been similar with the similar mods?

I have a broken record to play for you.

Peak values mean nothing...peak values mean nothing...peak values mean nothing...

Now you can certainly have a look at the shape of the graph you have and compare it to others and this can very often give a few clues to an issue you may have. Start a new thread and post a graph or two on the forced induction bit maybe?

Perhaps sucking in hot air with your unsheilded pod is not doing you favours?

I dont no pulp 40rwhp is abit wat is the state of service of your 4door magna (jokes) who services it and who tunes it and how long have you had the whale

lads could people have had the stock turbo upgraded from new by nissan like an n1 turbo cause that might explane the different dyno results

stock 205-210 mayby or 250-260 n1 rwhps

Miller the Hoon,

my old R33 gtst with just the exhaust got about 200rwhp at some dyno day thing but, basically ran a 13.8 so who the hell cares?

Comparing dyno peak values is like comparing used toilet paper....it's all crap. Can I put it any stronger than that?

Gee I don't know if I should be replying to this post! :P

Like whales, a ride like this is rare to find! (and don't say anything about being almost extinct!)

I get my servicing and tune done at Hyperdrive. But as Rev210 puts it, the dyno results aren't something you can go on.

I spose I just want to better my time of 14.8, and the fact that I've got 3" turbo back etc like other R33s that pull in the high 13s etc makes me wonder what it is that's the prob. (besides the whale factor)

I did have suspension and alignment problems (real bad apparently) and they have all been recently fixed, so I don't know if that would effect times??

All this and we still have no Idea how a stockish 33 made such good HP.. Even if peak power figures aren't that good a measure.

Has anyone found out anymore info about this 33 and whether it was stock turbo, possibly different internals??

Yeah i am on the case, so busy with work at the mo. Gotta convince my mate to let me rip it all apart so i can check it out.....he is more like "who gives a f%&K as long as it hauls ass" gotta say im starting to agree there.

Will try get some pics soon to.

Definitely. As long as it's tuned ok I wouldn't be stripping it down to prove something to a buch of people on some forums... :sweat:

    • Before I commit to it as I already have the wastegate off the car, would you change it to the 9psi spring instead of the 12, or whack it back on now and try your suggestion?
    • Sounds good Hmm suppose the main thing is, how much do you care about this car? The filler doesn't make for a very good water barrier lol. If there was a tiny little bit of rust forming now, that in 3 to 5 years time becomes obvious under the paint (starts to bubble up), would it bother you? 
    • I already have the ability to datalog the voltage... what I can't do is correlate it to what the gauge is showing when I'm looking at the data at a later date. Or something like this. Except getting the oil to 125C+ involves me going 200+kmh at the track so you can imagine this is a little tricky unless I do something like note what the voltage is when I am at the top of 5th gear so I have a point to reference on. Drove car today. O2 still reading richer because hopefully not a leak instead of massive restriction I've introduced. Car really doesn't sound like a LS. It's quite strange. Pulled a bit of fuel out up top. This does potentially explain why my spark plugs looked like the car was running pretty over-rich. If I was tuning it to a ~12.7 which in reality was far richer than that in the past. It will be handy to have the dyno WB to compare my WB to to compare notes that's for sure. At this point I'm happy to just sit in the passenger seat and tune the thing given I've got about 7 million hours on the platform lol.
    • Yeah I understand you have to pay for an updated map or subscription service or something. But I can't even find a current map for Australia. My map is dated 2017, but didn't this car version still sell in Australia until 2021?   Also, just as an aside, the navigation system warns you of traffic incidences ahead.....why would they include that on a map they knew is not receiving live information. I am forever going to be warned of an incident that probably existed for 30 minutes 8 years ago.
