just wondering when they had my car on the dyno they put there boost line into the back of my plenum(nearest to the firewall) but they just left it off they didnt T into it.where there is a vacumn line that looks like it goes to the fuel rail? could this be for fuel reg or something cause the car actually ran lean on the dyno, does any1 know where it goes?

yeah my boost guage is plubmed into the back aswell but theres a threaded type hole and just a little nipple type thing, where this goes down towards the fuel rail

oh and my dyno result was shit, first run toooo lean so i couldnt rev it past 4400 but it made 138rwkws,then the 2nd run it was toooo rich,so somthings farked

yeh my power output seems pretty poor for what i got on the car... my fuel pump died in the ass up high on boost, so in went a 550hp pump... then my injectors are at their "limit"... yet the power level is waaay down from what i've seen rb20dets run

which doesnt seem right

Yeh HR31 injectors are like 200cc or something pathetic. Good thing is though gtr injectors will go straight in because there both low inpedence.

Also the vacuum line at the back of the manifold is for the rear fuel pressure regulator and could make it run lean if its not connected.. just tee it in somewhere.

ahhhh thank u very much "works auto" thats what i wanted to hear,sooo taking that off must have leaned it out up top, DAMN YOU!!!!! i knew it after the run i said would taking that pipe of and not teeing into it have anything to do with fuel reg, He said NAH!!. ill take it back and take a look with it, also u said GTR injectors go straight in? like they plug straight in do they? cause i can remap it myself to suit bigger injectors

i have an R32 RB20det... silver top so 270cc <- still piss poor

and rb20 injectors are top feed high impedence

the rb26 are top feed low impedence

i have an EMS so i can use anything thats top feed.

lowlux <-- you still go the NICS?

    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
