D-Day results + pics.

[NismoR34]

I couldnt find any listing so I started this [please move if not in correct place]

Thanks a lot to Dr. Drift and the "Good Guys" performance crew

[NismoR34]

Crunching the numbers

[meggala]

yeah I got 148 from my best but sam has my sheet

I was happy this is the first dyno day when my car has been running perfectly.

nice dale

u werent epexcting that ey?

i got 180, would get 185 i think on a cooler day as i went on in the avo, and not long after drivin all the way out there

[mutex]

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 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.

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 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...

[predator]

u got a nice curve there dale.. ramps pretty steep up.

If you're using a factory boost guage its never accurate, the better (more expensive) ones are more accurate..

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.

[NismoR34]

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...

your car looks crazy in the pics.

Thanks Andy, yours came up alright too:

It even LOOKS clean!

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

[NismoR34]

Thanks Rob. Nice pics too btw.

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!

[dAVE]

shouldnt a r34 gtt get higher than 150kw stock. I thought a r33 gtst was about 145kw @ rear wheels stock, and the rb25 neo has about 20 + kw on the 33 rb25.

When I went i got 173.5 kw @ 10 psi just with re mapped ecu, cat back zorst, pod & diff

[Dr_Drift]

dAVE - Yes, should get higher than 150 stock... Looks like some stock 33's are making more than 150 too...
