Nissan decided that the S1 auto gearbox needed some protection from the heavier weight

The manual (S2) Stageas have the same power as (R34GTT) Skylines

But what about S2 autos and R34GTT autos?

:D cheers :D

Somewhere in Skylines there is a comparison of a Stagea, (S1 or S2 I dont know) and two or three other FI cars. The Stagea did better than some. Perhaps someone (SK) knows what thread.

According to this: http://english.auto.vl.ru/catalog/nissan/s...a/2000_6/21829/

The S2 Auto and Manual both have 280ps, which doesn't surprise me too much.

I was under the impression Stagea rb25det runs a little less boost that R33 versions. Like 6-7psi Stagea, 8psi Skyline. Although that would imply different ECU maps, otherwise, based on Stagea AF's, the Skyline would be too rich.

i think i remember reading somewhere that the S2 manual has 10 N*m more torque than the S2 auto...perhaps something to do with the rear LSD that comes standard on the manual

It's just a different calibration to protect the auto. The autos break! Heaps of cars are detuned for the auto variants. The Stagea is detuned a bit more than the skyline auto because it id heavier and AWD.

yea true the detune it cos their auto gearbox cant take it. This is also true for an Rx8 an uto the rev limit is at 7k where the manuak goes to 9.5k rpm.

well, i really dont think 10kw difference will kill an auto box....

but hey, we've all worked out an extra 60-70kw can :cheers:

More likely the 20 nm of extra torque

Regarding boost, our Stagea came with 4 psi / 6psi (high / low)

The R33GTST came to us with 5.5 psi / 7.5 psi (high / low)

So my guess is the extra 1.5 psi of boost accounts for the torque difference.

Auto ECU’s and manual ECUs in R33GTST’s are definitely different.

When I swap the turbo on the Stagea, I will check the wastegate actuator spring pressure. If my guess is correct, the Stagea wastegate spring should be ~1.5 psi lower than the R33GTST spring.

:ban: cheers ;)

I always thought this was just down to slightly different configuration between the two cars.

To use another example, look at where the VQ35DE engine is used, its in like 5 different nissan cars (probably more), including the 350Z, stagea M35, maxima, skyline v35, patrol?, and there are sure to be others I've missed.

In all of these cars the power figures differ - either in kw or torque or both.

I figured it was just that the setup is configured differently depending on the purpose or the target market of the car.

Sounds like the same theory diesel engine manufacturers have.

Most common rail deisels will produce a difference of up to 200 HP from the same motor simply by programming the ECU. You simply tell them what you want the motor to do and they'll program it for you.

      My whp was 418whp and 518hp crank on 98 octane fuel. So decent numbers.

      Found a issue, after driving through torrential rain, the drivers side roof drain is blocked and some water ended up in the boot I've parked it up, stripped out the boot, and dried it out with a towel Initial fix was poking a big long cable tie down the drain to unblock it, then poured some hot water and detergent into it to flush out what I could, which now has it working, but I'm assuming it needs a good old fashioned proper "rogering" of the drain holes    Next step is waiting for the trombone cleaner that I just ordered from FleaBay next week Luckily nothing made it into the interior and it is all drying out nicely and the roof drains are working well enough for now I found the same issue with my old NB when I first got that, a couple of broken down leaves and some dirt was enough to block the drains, I did have a trombone cleaner back then, but I cannot find it anywhere, although, going of other times when I buy something to replace something I cannot find, the old one will probably turn up any minute now

      Will look into the helical front diff thanks.  Sounds like everyone just says keep the rear as is. 👍🏻

      R33 NA comes as rb25de or rb20e, so either of those, or r34 rb20de

      I think the figures are pretty accurate as all my other cars are around the right hp readings as have done on multiple dynoes. However they are rwd cars so might mean the difference.    I am running every possible hks part also and a str exhaust … all new ecu. The mod list is endless. 😂 I’m ready for stroker and big turbo if I go that route.
