Yeah, 180rwkw aint half bad :-)

I put my stock R34 GTT on and it produced 161rwkw, a bit more than what Zoom and HPI report (150rwkw) - so I'm happy.

Apparently my timing was out (12deg versus 15-16 deg). but the dyno operators fixed that for me.

Thanks Sam (Dr Drift) and associates, for their efforts. I left pretty disapointed though with my figure. I was expecting at least 200rwkw with the Wolf and other mods. Only got 173!! rwkw :D Then to top it off a stockish R33 (Air Pod, zorst & 10psi) made 183rwkw WTF!!!!

Went back to EAS to see WTF is goin on. Tuesday week a rep. from dyno dynamics is bring a dyno to sell to EAS and i am takin the day off to put my car on. What i am planing on doing is to give the car a couple of runs with the wolf, then pluggin the standard ecu to see the difference. If i am not happy the whole thing is goin to be reprogrammed!

I know the car accerates alot harder, thus this should give me better 1/4 times (to be seen on the 4 April). But i did not spend $1400+ to loose 10rwkw. Sam seems to think that with better tunning the car should make the 200 mark, i really hope so!

DR Drift:

19" rims have a bigger rolling diameter, would this effect the read out? As there is certainly a noticable difference when driving.

great work dale

nice:)

I was only expecting around 160 ~ 170 max!

Mods were POD, Boost and cat-back exhaust. :D

missed your 34 dale.. oh well.. i wasn't getting there at 7am.. especially after our 4am finish last nite.

Hey thats cool, I got there at 8:00 after going to bed at 2 [dont know how].

I agree with your other statment too Gordon, I was more concerned with how much boost I was really running and what the air/fuel delivery was like, as well as checking the C.A.S.

A rwkw figure was definately a secondary requirement for me [believe it or not] - although I am pleasantly surprised by the number of course

My factory boost guage is out by about 2-2.5 Psi - at least now I know what I am running! CAS was set to 16/17 degrees [btdc] from memory, which is only slightly advanced!

Magazines do testing all of the time - some mags get different results. Most cars even when stock will get different results.

High Performance Imports recorded 148rwkw on a dead stock R34gtt also - and from what I understand of drivetrain losses and similar tests done elsewhere - a figure AROUND 150 is correct!

To get 161rwkw, I imagine your car is not completely stock - how do you know it is anyway? Have you checked the ECU? Is it factory issue? What about the exhaust? Stock? What kind of fuel? Additives? Cam? Air filter [inc hi-flow panel type]? Air flow sensor mesh - this could be removed? There are a lot of little things that could have been done to give you some "extra" numbers...

I am not having a go - simply curious because I havent seen a stock 34 in australia produce over 150. I would be happy if it were mine and was dead stock :D Well done!

rwkw aint #1. Its the power curve and responsiveness that matter,

I agree, and I have always been happy with the respnosiveness of mine - ever since I bought it. Power curve I am happy with too... I dont think I will bother with those electronic gizmos either [safc, ebc, ecu etc.].

Rather keep it on the rich side to be safe - esp with stock cooler / turbo etc...

your ecu aint stock either nismor34 coz otherwise as it comes onto boost thw a/f ratios will run down near 10:1. Yours is stable at around 12:1

All factory ECU in mine. Your theory may relate to 33's only, think about it - there is not much knowledge in this country about 34's - yet!

Perhaps Nissan wrote a different ECU program, for a different car?

Would you say the r32 is the same as your car? I wouldnt.

Where are your results guys?

Post them up for all to see - its not about showing off - it really does give others a chance to see how / what their cars can acheive when modded - or a baseline figure when stock [ish]!

Its "technical" for me anyway!

Post away...

RedLineGTR Dyno Day Photos 29/3 The site is up again, dont know how long for but i'm sure if it dies again it will be up the next day.

Dale sending ya pics now, still got a couple more but, the size of em will not send all together.

Djlethal will send your right after dales, i got another nice one for ya.

Cheers Rob

Just to clarify this...

Al asked to get the car tuned to a safe level, and EAS have done a good job at tuning the car, and it's power is a genuine every day reliable power figure.

There's still a bit to fine tune without sacrificing longevity though....

The other thing is that Al's car was only running 12 psi peak and holing 11 psi at redline.... And a very stable boost curve also!

    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way.
