Hey guys

I got my car dynoed again today and I just want to try and clarify the difference between rwkw's and 4wkw's on GTR's.

The last time I got it done on a rwd dyno and it came up as 253rwkw at UAS.

Today I have the same mods as last time but just adjusted the boost response i made 257kw @ all 4 wheels at CRD.

Now Jim at CRD said to me the difference between rwd and 4wd is around 30kw give or take and that sounds a bit too much to me. When i tested my car today, it felt like maybe at max an extra 10-15kw at the wheels difference(but thats just my judgement). I also read somewhere here people were saying around 4% difference between 4wd and rwd for r32gtr's.

Also last time my stock injector duty cycle at full power were at around 80-82%.

Now Jim reckons I wont be able to make anymore power safely because of my injectors maxing out which I assume would at least be 90% plus? But need to confirm this later.

Stock injectors max out at around 280rwkws or so?? So does this make sense to assume its around a 4-5% loss between rwd and 4wd? Opinions wanted please!

Cheers

I had my car dynoed at Melbourne Autosalon in both RWD and AWD within a span of 24 hours of each other and no changes were made to either the dyno or the car except for the removal of the driveshaft.

In AWD, my car made 604awkw and in RWD, the car made 617rwkw.

Regardless of how the dyno was configured intially, all the settings for both the dyno and the car remained the same. The only thing which changed was the ambient temperature and humidity in the Melbourne Exhibition Building which would be considered as negligable.

Hope this info helps.

    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go       
    • I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
