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:

    • Power is fed to the ECU when the ignition switch is switched to IGN, at terminal 58. That same wire also connects to the ECCS relay to provide both the coil power and the contact side. When the ECU sees power at 58 it switches 16 to earth, which pulls the ECCS relay on, which feeds main power into the ECU and also to a bunch of other things. None of this is directly involved in the fuel pump - it just has to happen first. The ECU will pull terminal 18 to earth when it wants the fuel pump to run. This allows the fuel pump relay to pull in, which switches power on into the rest of the fuel pump control equipment. The fuel pump control regulator is controlled from terminal 104 on the ECU and is switched high or low depending on whether the ECU thinks the pump needs to run high or low. (I don't know which way around that is, and it really doesn't matter right now). The fuel pump control reg is really just a resistor that controls how the power through the pump goes to earth. Either straight to earth, or via the resistor. This part doesn't matter much to us today. The power to the fuel pump relay comes from one of the switched wires from the IGN switch and fusebox that is not shown off to the left of this page. That power runs the fuel pump relay coil and a number of other engine peripherals. Those peripherals don't really matter. All that matters is that there should be power available at the relay when the key is in the right position. At least - I think it's switched. If it's not switched, then power will be there all the time. Either way, if you don't have power there when you need it (ie, key on) then it won't work. The input-output switching side of the relay gains its power from a line similar (but not the same as) the one that feeds the ECU. SO I presume that is switched. Again, if there is not power there when you need it, then you have to look upstream. And... the upshot of all that? There is no "ground" at the fuel pump relay. Where you say: and say that pin 1 Black/Pink is ground, that is not true. The ECU trigger is AF73, is black/pink, and is the "ground". When the ECU says it is. The Blue/White wire is the "constant" 12V to power the relay's coil. And when I say "constant", I mean it may well only be on when the key is on. As I said above. So, when the ECU says not to be running the pump (which is any time after about 3s of switching on, with no crank signal or engine speed yet), then you should see 12V at both 1 and 2. Because the 12V will be all the way up to the ECU terminal 18, waiting to be switched to ground. When the ECU switches the fuel pump on, then AF73 should go to ~0V, having been switched to ground and the voltage drop now occurring over the relay coil. 3 & 5 are easy. 5 is the other "constant" 12V, that may or may not be constant but will very much want to be there when the key is on. Same as above. 3 goes to the pump. There should never be 12V visible at 3 unless the relay is pulled in. As to where the immobiliser might have been spliced into all this.... It will either have to be on wire AF70 or AF71, whichever is most accessible near the alarm. Given that all those wires run from the engine bay fusebox or the ECU, via the driver's area to the rear of the car, it could really be either. AF70 will be the same colour from the appropriate fuse all the way to the pump. If it has been cut and is dangling, you should be able to see that  in that area somewhere. Same with AF71.   You really should be able to force the pump to run. Just jump 12V onto AF72 and it should go. That will prove that the pump itself is willing to go along with you when you sort out the upstream. You really should be able to force the fuel pump relay on. Just short AF73 to earth when the key is on. If the pump runs, then the relay is fine, and all the power up to both inputs on the relay is fine. If it doesn't run (and given that you checked the relay itself actually works) then one or both of AF70 and AF71 are not bringing power to the game.
    • @PranK can you elaborate further on the Colorlock Dye? The website has a lot of options. I'm sure you've done all the research. I have old genuine leather seats that I have bought various refurbing creams and such, but never a dye. Any info on how long it lasts? Does it wash out? Is it a hassle? What product do I actually need? Am I just buying this kit and following the steps the page advises or something else? https://www.colourlockaustralia.com.au/colourlock-leather-repair-kit-dye.html
    • These going to fit over the big brakes? I'd be reeeeeeeeaaaall hesitant to believe so.
    • The leather work properly stunned me. Again, I am thankful that the leather was in such good condition. I'm not sure what the indent is at the top of the passenger seat. Like somebody was sitting in it with a golf ball between their shoulders. The wheels are more grey than silver now and missing a lot of gloss.  Here's one with nice silver wheels.
    • It's amazing how well the works on the leather seats. Looks mint. Looking forward to see how you go with the wheels. They do suit the car! Gutter rash is easy to fix, but I'm curious about getting the colour done.
