I just thought I'd give a quick heads up and update some of the stuff from my previous posts. We took the car back to the dyno after fighting what we believed to be a misfire problem. We hardwired the coils, hooked up an HKS Twin Power DLI, and rechecked the plug gap, but still had no luck. Then I figured out that the AEM boost cut was set too low! So all that for nothing, lol. Anyway, we also hardwired the fuel pump because we had a voltage loss going to the pump, so that fixed that problem. With the car getting proper fuel, and no boost cut (or imaginary misfire), we layed down 500rwhp/372rwkw and 420rwtq/313rwtq @23psi.

We're still running a bone stock head, just ARP's, and headgasket for the increased boost. I'm not sure what the limit of the stock cams are on a non-nitrous motor, but we'll soon find out. The 550cc injectors are officially maxxed out, so it's time for some 750's, and then we'll crank the boost up to 28psi to see what it makes.

We took it to the track and it ran 11.01 @128mph, so it was a pretty solid setup. This is also in full street trim, including a body kit, and a stereo system with XM sattelite radio! The car will be on the cover of S3 magazine in March, so check it out if you get a chance. Thanks to everyone on here who gave help and suggestions. It really did make life easier 8-) We're not done yet though. We've got more to come...

Congrats mate

theres not much more without nitrous that i could get out of them

i made 502 rwhp and then 591 with gas on standard cams

what sort of motor, and in what car (auto/Manual)??

The car is a 5spd. The bottom end is a Wiseco/Eagle Combo, and it's in a 1998 240sx. The motor is great, I can't say enough good things about it. If I put more injector, and throw more boost at it, it should be at around 550whp. The cams are definitely running outta breath for just having boost, but that problem will be addressed shortly as well. I've got an old video of it making 450whp, and drifting, which is from the previous tune (back when we were having "spark" issues), and another video of it at the dragstrip with the NEW tune. Lemme know what you think. Thanks again guys. This forum has been a TON of help!

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
