It depends if it is a chipped r32 rb20 or 25 ecu, or a stock or chipped r33 ecu, i cant see it possibly being a stock r33 ecu. In my experience there is no such thing as a freak car, maybe 10 rwkw, but not 50, and ive done 100s of power runs in cars. If it makes that power, it does it for a reason. It appears to have the supporting hardware, now its just the injectors and management, you need to pull the cover off theecu and have a look.

yeah might pull the cover off this weekend and have a look to see if something funky has been done to it

oh, and you simply can't make 270rwkw on 10.7:1 afrs...

ok thats prolly a fair statement, any tuners on here care to have a look at the dyno graph i posted up and back that statement up?? its just that throwing a random comment out there like that dont carry much merrit unless you can back it up... now you could be right and you prolly are, but i have had it on the dyno, done the mph to back it up so if someone can come up with any sort of explanation why it could be otherwise, id really like to know?

I'm a tuner, and a car running 10.7:1 afrs just bog down too much. It might be possible to make that sort of power with a heaps big turbo, but I hardly see it happening with a GT30 or something that size.

There so many factors involved.

I also agree with Adriano - There is no such thing as a freak car. There is a reason why the car behaves like that.

i see

11.7afr @ 3200rpm ~ 90kmh

richens up to 11.2 and then leans back out again

11.8afr @ 4100rpm ~ 115kmh

progressively richens up to 10.8 afr around 4800rpm ~ 135kmh

then leans back out to 11.8afr around 5700rpm ~ 160kmh

then it progressively leans out to 12.1 afr before redline

i suspect you would get a good chunk of midrange power if the afrs were around 12 all the way through instead of richen up to high 10s and the back ground mid 11s. providing the egt's are ok it should be fine on low 12s the whole way through, usually a bit richer during boost build say upto 3400rpm ish~

your boost seems to ramp finally at 3900 so maybe a tiny bit before that a bit richer could help, then just 12s the rest of the way, again check afrs and egts on a dyno

oh, and you simply can't make 270rwkw on 10.7:1 afrs...

hey Jono

have another look..

you say your a tuner yet you cant read a dyno printout ??

the 10.7 AFR is his first run in green = 207 kws

next run in red with AFR up to 12.1 = 270kws

he obviuosly started at 207kws then cranked some more boost into her and then did the red run

gettin up 270 od kws.

Have I got this right,

278 rwkw

RB25DET

delta fin cooler

3" exhaust

gt3037 @ 14psi

38mm external gate with screamer

sub zero plenum

injectors are stock as far as im aware

afm is stock

In a Silvia

Ts = 118 mph

I agree, it doesn’t add up.

1. The TS should be 125 mph or so for that sort of power and weight.

2. The AFM will be reaching 5 volts at a bit less than 4,500 rpm (~220 rwkw). That leaves 3,000 rpm of only mapping via RPM points

3. The standard ECU doesn’t like that sort of stuff at all

4. Someone put a SubZero plenum on and left the injectors standard, seems illogical to me

5. The standard injectors flow 370 cc’s at standard pressure (36-38 psi). That’s 370 bhp, or ~215 rwkw. So 278 rwkw out of standard injectors at standard pressure is impossible.

6. The A/F ratios being all over the place, particularly the richness ~4,200 rpm to 6,000 rpm, indicates larger than standard injectors are likely.

7. The reason why it is hard to drive down the ¼ is the non linear response from the engine due to the tune being all over the place

My guesses, Z32 AFM, chipped/bent ECU and 500 cc injectors.

Fix the tune and it will make a bit more max power (over 300 rwkw), a heap more average power (particularly in the all important 4 to 6,000rpm range) and it will be much faster and more consistent down the ¼.

:mad: cheers :D

Is that the 280rwkw car your talking about?

Std injectors & ECU?

not possible.

backed it up with a 118mph pass at the strip

the ecu has been remapped. the stock ecu has a speed cut at about 112mph (180kmh).

what does the car hit the rev limit at? if it is above 7000rpm then that is another sign the ecu has been remapped.

ahhhh the point of the day, i dont have a speed limiter??? (she has been way past 180kph)

I agree, it doesn’t add up. we both agree it dont add up

1. The TS should be 125 mph or so for that sort of power and weight. as stated i cant drive to save myself

2. The AFM will be reaching 5 volts at a bit less than 4,500 rpm (~220 rwkw). That leaves 3,000 rpm of only mapping via RPM points agreed

3. The standard ECU doesn’t like that sort of stuff at all

4. Someone put a SubZero plenum on and left the injectors standard, seems illogical to me i was offered the plenum for 200 bux and it retains the stock inlet runners and fuel rail thus the still standard injectors

5. The standard injectors flow 370 cc’s at standard pressure (36-38 psi). That’s 370 bhp, or ~215 rwkw. So 278 rwkw out of standard injectors at standard pressure is impossible. agreed

6. The A/F ratios being all over the place, particularly the richness ~4,200 rpm to 6,000 rpm, indicates larger than standard injectors are likely.thats a verry interesting point, what would be the easiest way to check this out

7. The reason why it is hard to drive down the ¼ is the non linear response from the engine due to the tune being all over the place

My guesses, Z32 AFM, chipped/bent ECU and 500 cc injectors.

Fix the tune and it will make a bit more max power (over 300 rwkw), a heap more average power (particularly in the all important 4 to 6,000rpm range) and it will be much faster and more consistent down the ¼. thats the kind of enthousiasm i like to hear

drag-on, you definately dont have a stock ECU.

I can assure you of that, and likely hi-flowed injectors or slightly bigger ones... so it all looks factory... but it isnt :D

Get a pic of the inside of the ECU for us

yeh mine made 254 and went bang after 3 months but that was due to bad tuning aswell but....i know theres a dude here in sa making over 300 on the stock internals and has done for a while

Yes Freebaggins old 33 was making slightly over 300rwkw (313rwkw from memory) for years. :D

Tuning with regular checkups is critical.

    • Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!
    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
