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

[sorry I took a while to reply, had to post and run]

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...

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!

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
