The problem (knock/ping) seems to be a single piston issue. We suspect a blocked injector or two. The afr's are super rich as I have previously dialed in more fuel to cushion any potential damage.

The result was a ping at about 4700rpm that prevented us reving it any higher.power: 230 rwhp - afr : high 9 with very little timing advance

170odd rwkw with 9 a/f ratio?? so ur car is a freak then!:D

Dave,

230rwhp (172rwkw) @ 4700 is bloody impressive! Given that peak power isn't till 6800 stock. If you've dialed the HKS cam gear for more top end then the peak might be even higher?

My estimate of mid 190rwkw is lookin' good :mad: It might go even higher!? Especially when you're running conservative timing & nasty rich.

While on the A/FR's, 9:1 isn't very healthy @ all :) You might have dialed in a little too much cushioning! Not quite as bad as too lean, but still not good.

Yepp, just as we thought, Rev's got one of those freak 1995 cars :uh-huh:

It's good to see that the ping issue 'shouldn't' be anything major.

Are you getting them cleaned using the ultrasonic bath way?

Once you get the ping sorted, and back for a re-tune, I reckon you'll see your 12 second pass :uh-huh:

Well done

It's not a freak car.

The first dyno it ever had (over 2 years ago) showed 180 rwhp odd on a dyno day with other cars and whilst a heathly figure it wasn't the highest.

the mods and tuning I've done are responsible for the power and considerable torque it's making (afr's uptop aside).

Mine's a 95, but it's no freak, hell I can't even pull the 1/4 in less than a 14 right now... so bleh!

considering dave ran a 13.4 without the AFC, i still cant see what i'm doing wrong...bleh!

So let me get this rite? 170rwkws at 4800RPM????

DAIM.

Pretty respectable figures considering engine mods are turbo back exhaust, panel filter, thermal wrap, 10psi, cam gear, afr of high 9's (untuned s-afc), and a little advanced timing (did I leave anything out?).

I'd be happy with that, that's for sure :D

Most people get less than that with a 'professional tune' at a workshop :)

Rev - are you getting the injectors clean by an ultrasonic bath?

Cheers

    • Hello, everyone. I'm new to the forum. I have a 1989 Nissan Skyline R32 GTR. I have lost all power to the interior, including AC controls, the gauge cluster, turn signals, and windows. Stuff that still works includes the horn, brake lights, radio, and headlights. All fuses, in the interior and exterior boxes, tested good.  It starts and runs fine, just with no gauge power or anything stated above. No warning lights either. Things that I have tested: - Fusable link tested fine - No other fuses blown - Alternator good - IGN switch tested fine - With my power probe, I can backfeed power through the IGN pin to the plug on the back of the gauge cluster, and everything comes back on.    So my theory is something on the control side that sends the ignition power through the system isn't doing its job, or a wire is broken. (I would think that it is the ignition switch that would do that, but who knows?). The ignition relays don't fire (all relays tested good). So what tells them to fire other than the IGN switch?  I would really appreciate it if someone had some insight on this. I have tons of hours into this; I don't want to give up in defeat! I have the HD wiring diagram, but having all those wires laid out like that on one sheet of paper makes things pretty hard to follow.  Thanks for reading, and thanks for the replies.  Where should I look next? Thanks.
    • Install a MAP sensor pre and post throttle. Best data you could have for NA, then play with the bends and/or air box and see how much of inflection is created at WOT on the plot.
    • And gone to a new home  
    • The car remains in paint jail. I am now pretty convinced that the whole "RB25 Airboxes are kinda limiting to ~300kw" could be a thing. Also saw a good video from Engine Masters: (Sorry for FB link) (https://www.facebook.com/watch/?ref=search&v=761771519471924&external_log_id=c10bcbb6-2c39-4ff3-9240-287e9921fde6&q=Cold Air Considerations) Where they tested Pod Filter sizes and kept adding bends to a LS3 on an Engine Dyno to find if bends caused power loss. It's a good video worth watching - They did lose ~25hp from making an intake which had 3x90's and a 120 degree. They only lost maybe 1hp with a basic 90. I feel that by sealing up my airbox I have: 1) Created the same restriction a stock airbox would have. 2) Created a very convoluted set of intake 'pipes' by forcing all the air through the ducts. So I am pretty confident I'll be going full circle and have a huge hot air intake pod and actually see a benefit. The air does *not* stay hot once it gets flowing, aided by the ducts, and the pod can then pull air from anywhere. All the posts of yore talk about the stock airbox costing 10-15kw at 300kw+ but you know what? I f**king would very much like that 10-15kw and I remember my own pod filter in engine bay experiences. Turns out the GTT Reo and Headlight brackets really don't allow you to mount GTR items, no matter what the internet says. Various brackets have had to be made up to actually make it fit right for the front bar. Also some idiot mounted a 3L Accusump right where the bumper wants to go, so that has had to be 'relocated' To where, I am still not sure, but it's supposedly mounted in the pictures and I can't see it.
    • Sounds like the oil pressure light is wired into the oil temp sensor... As it warms up, resistance on temp sensor reduces, hence more current can flow and the dash light gets brighter.
