sounds a bit high but a good result for only exhuast and ecu ;)

doesnt sound high at all. 13 psi with pfc, and exhaust. i would have thought it was slightly low if anything.

mine made 182rwkw at 10psi with 3" and unichip. it was making 170rwkw before the tune.

Sounds normal. Put a quality fmic on it and you should see better repeatable results (ie: better flow, less heat soak).

Munkyb0y: those figures sound high; best way to compair is to have the cars on the same dyno, on the same day, operated by the same tuner. I could make you car read 280rwkw, just by sticking the air temp sensor in the exhaust ;)

there's a 6 litre ss thunder ute out there that doesnt think those figures are high :sick:

all these figures are in the right ball park. the tune got me an extra 12rwkw on an already tuned unit. so there's one variable right there.

looks very normal.

there is a range of dyno figures that covers 'normal'.

Bottom line is you aren't going to win any dyno competitions with a stockish gtst, if thats the goal.

Use the dyno as a tuning tool only to avoid needless bulldust sessions. Then again the forums might not exsist if that happened? :happy:

the goal was to see if my car had potential. not to win any dyno comps

Dyno won't tell you too much about that on a stockish car. Compression test will give you a basic picture of engine health. Otherwise there isn't any more or less potential in your car compared to any other healthy R33 gtst.

You can chirp the tyres in plenty of slow gutless cars provided the tyres and suspension are crap enough. Not much of a bragging right.

      Why not? Since mines been built, I've used low boost maybe 5 times.

      gauge needle removal

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yeah, so widen your search to any Nissan speedo first, then go wider if needed. I will say though, that there is a better than even chance that what I said first will likely come into play. They quite possibly won't come apart without damage. I tried to disassemble a stepper gauge that I wanted to repair. There was no way that needle was coming off the spindle, and I could not see how the spindle would come out of the mechanism behind. Assembled once, never to be disassembled, was my conclusion. Could be the same on the R34 cluster. Failing that - take the cluster to a workshop that specialises in automotive instrument work. There's usually at least one in every Australian city. They'll either be able to do it for you for small cost, or tell you it can't be done. It might be that "it can't be done" unless you follow some arcane procedure, including trickiness to glue it back together or something, that only experienced techs know.

      R-chassis INNER tie rod torque spec?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Well, given that I, an engineer, almost never bring out the torque wrench to tighten up chassis bolts, despite fully knowing the theory, and instead rely on feel, which I happen to know is exactly how the majority of mechanics do things, should tell you the level of actual peril that exists from not achieving exactly 88 Nm of torque. How about if I just say then that 88Nm is at the lower end of the correct wheel nut torque range? Everyone knows how to tighten a wheel nut, right? And almost no-one ever brings out the torque wrench for that task

      Don't be ridiculous. "2-3 ugga duggas or one Oof. You have to use Oof on tie rods because you can't get an ugga dugga on there." Is not helping the guy at all.

      gauge needle removal

      By JC71 · Posted

      I have done a lot of research before posting here and on gtruk forum. couldn't find anything. I have my gauges all part except the needle itself. the needle has a extremely small hole in the center, but the shaft going to the needle is extremely small and appears to have nothing to index it either. doesn't seem strong enough to simple pry or pull without damaging something. Already tried the old spoon trick on a extra triple meter I have from a gtt, but no luck. the center cap comes off easily but the hole in the meter face plate aren't big enough to get over the needle itself. figured this would be my best place to find someone who might have actually removed theirs. wonder if there is some type of small pin press tool to push the pin in while pulling the needle base off.
