just went in to get my car tuned up. had a bit of a fault with the power fc so i had to send it back to the factory to get it checked out, but still had the boost controller put in using .7 bar boost and achieved a crappy 170rwkw.

the car currently has a FMIC, full 3" turbo back exhaust, Pod and is boosted to .7 bar which gave me 170rwkw, compared to HPIs Project R34 Car which made 180rwkw with just .7 bar boost and catback + front pipe.

i have all the advantages here (FMIC, POD, Dump pipe, High FLow Cat) and still came sort 10rwkws.

is that possible?

what are all u guys getting?

I will be getting mine tuned in a couple of weeks. Has a Power FC, split dump / front pipe, metal high flow cat, 3" cat back, pod filter and CAI, and is running about 11psi. I am hoping for around 200rwkw but it is largly up to the dyno it is on too.

Your complaining over a 10kw difference? Nevermind the fact you didnt have it run up on the same dyno!

agreed

each dyno is different.

Simple as that.

If you made more power on the same dyno than you did before the mods... & car feels better.

Then thats all there is too it

Double the mods? What, an FMIC and pod filter? Neither of which are going to give you any more power....

are u on drugs mate?

a car that didnt have a FMIC, no pod, no dump pipe, no cat, got an extra 10rwkws.

if i had the same mods and i was short 10kws fair enough but just the amount of things i had over the other car should of at least put me ahead of him by 10 not behind.

just think about it for a second, no FMIC which means temps would be pretty high on a boosted up car, no pod(fair enough maybe not a big gain here but still adds!!), no cat or dump pump...which is wdh in my opionion...u got 3" of air slammin down the front then all of a sudden into a shiet box of a cat.......

all im saying is how da hell did i come up short...and was wondering what other r34 owners came up with.

I hear HKS stickers give you 10kw extra.........EACH!! ......

hey ur pretty funny man, has anyone told u about being a comedian.....extra thumbs up for the joke u thought up urself aswell....lol....loser........

Missing some stickers?

As everyone else said different dynos would give different values.

Take it down a 1/4 mile see what you get.

Power is all relative..

The FMIC is not really going to make much difference at that boost / power level, the factory R34 SMIC's are pretty good. And the pod filter will bugger all to over a decent panel filter in the factory air box.

i agree dynos are all diffrent we had a vy ss ute running big mods fmic,supercharged,cams tune bla bla blaa it got 389rwkw on shoot out mode on a dyno dynamics (the same dyno that capa have used with nearly all of there devolpment cars ),the next day took it down to a motor show rolled it on a unknown brand dyno look pretty god dam old pulled 314rwkw pretty upsetting

there is always a diffrence in dyno readout there a tuning tool

did you have the same tourque as that other r34 or less or more

how many klms does it have compaired to this other r34

remember they are a tunning tool

      Blue/grey smoke after idle

      I get that taking off the head is best but that's a bit much for "just" valve seals. I was just under the impression that one would be able to rotate to TDC and be able to temporarily drop the valve without losing it and effectively having to remove the head to then recover it. I never knew people actually pushed rope into the cylinder to do valve seals hahaha So just to confirm, just going to TDC will not work? In that case I know when I do valve seals I'll maybe just remove the head and do some other things while I'm there, or just wait until I do an engine build.

      The old approach was to fill the cylinder/chamber with a length of rope pushed in through the sparkplug hole. The new approach is to connect compressed air to the sparkplug hole and fill it with enough pressure to push the valves up. Doing either of these things with the head on and the engine in the car is a lot less pleasant than doing it properly.

      Can't you put the pistons to TDC and then do the valve seals? Or will the drop down too far to pull them back up?

      Replacing turbo water line - any recommendations or advice?

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      One thing I can tell you is, do it properly the first time. If you encounter unexpected problems just let the car sit for a week or two if you have to get some other parts or figure stuff out.  I'd have said go and use as many OEM parts as possible but since you want to change the turbo later on a custom kit is probably the better choice. Since I have no experience with RB25 just compare parts diagrams and images before buying a line kit and it should be easy to see if it has everything you need. Amayama has very good parts diagrams and part number lists, that is what I used a bunch to figure out what I might need. And don't forget to plan ahead and possibly renew other stuff that's easy to get to while you're in there doing the turbo lines. Happy wrenching

      Unpeeling the Orange

      Update 4:   Hi all, good news. Engine is running and all the gaskets and seals seem to be working as intended. No leaks so far, even the JB Weld seems to hold. I flushed out the old coolant a few times and put in fresh coolant, not Nissan stuff, I decided to try the Ravenol Protect FL22, they claim it works for a wide variety of JDM cars and the opinions on it by some people were pretty good. And it has the nice poison green color! And man am I glad I bought a coolant system tester earlier this year, vacuum filling works wonders on this engine. I can definitely recommend this to anyone still doing it the old school way. All you need is compressed air supply. Will have to do a small test drive as soon as I can, I removed the gauge cluster again as the tacho needle was still bouncing around a bit but it was much better than before already.  I also found some cracks on all 4 tires inner and outer sidewalls. Apparently these tires should 't be parked on for extended periods or be kept under 0 degrees during storage, which I did not know. Clearly the previous owner didn't look into those details either, he probably bought them just cause they are cool semi-slicks. I'm just wondering how tf I am supposed to reach 30-80 degree tire temperatures on the public road consistenly, these tires were never going to work for my use case. I'll probably order Continental SportContact7 ones as these are the best allround summer tire available right now and I don't think I'll need anything crazier for now. Do let me know if you have experience with various tires and which ones you recommend.
