Nismo S-tune S1 engine is a nismo engine , yes its something special, its better than your stock nissan one. nismo made S-tunes for each model. You will notice the middle one is the nismo 400r which possibly utilized a Tuned version of the S-tune engine :) can anyone confirm?

I've seen some GTRs with S1 engines, according to Nismo they have around 400ps which is not all that significant compared to what one can do to increase power. Are they overrated or something special?

I see you're comparing the S1 engine to something alot more 'unstreetable'... are you asking because of the low bang for buck value it seems to have on paper?

The S1 engine are for increased power and torque across the rev range, giving a useable boost in those areas with less stress on the engine. It's a 'street performance upgrade' for GT-Rs (and others) and outright power is not the main focus. Think of it as a higher power RB engine from the Nissan factory, with all the reliability that goes along with it.

Thats not a 400R.

The 400R has a REINIK 2.8 litre engine called RB-X GT2 (N1 block with forged internals etc etc) 400bhp 478nm lazy

S1 is a rebuilt engine with N1 parts has 400bhp 450nm by nismo

R1 is a N1 block with N1 parts has 450bhp 480nm by nismo

F-Sport is a 2.8L engine with GT block and mostly Gt parts like the Z-tune not sure of the power

hope that helps

ps saw a N1 block (new) on Japanese yahoo for A$1400 GT block was A$4500 new on yahoo nice start

      One Headlight isn't working - Driver Side Fuse Keeps blowing

      He's right ~ there is no 'magic' with stuff like this ... it is more likely that in the process of looking for the short, the loom/wire 'incidentally' got moved in the process, thus removing the short ~ now, that maybe a wire (in a loom) rubbing against the edge of some grounded metal, that's worn through the insulation, causing the (now intermittent) short to ground. If one wire in a loom has been damaged in this fashion, it's reasonable to presume that other wires beside it may have also be damaged, and now exposed...you can bet the green crusty copper corrosion will start... ...that'd be a pisser, Murphy's Law steps right in as GTS observes...but worse, something like that is easier to find when shorted...ie; unplug bulb and fuse, and put multimeter in continuity mode so you get constant beep, and carefully poke about hoping to find if some movemet of the harness stop the beeping.... ...it's still all a bit Arnie tho' ..It'll be back... 😃

      Yeah, but knowledge of one wire's insulation worn through to short on earth implies the possibility of other wires doing the same. I had my power steering die, because the wire that runs to the solenoid valve on the rack runs in the same loom as the power wire for the O2 sensor. And when the O2 sensor/wire did something stupid and burnt part of that loom to death, the only indication was the shit(ter) fuel economy and the heavy steering. It took deep excavation of the looms in the bay to find the problem. Not wear through in that case, but similar shit.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      Ah, I thought he'd wired it to one of the spare ECU inputs! Too long ago since I read that post, ha ha. I've been arguing with radiators, harmonic balancers, alternators and rust since reading it.

      Correct. The ECU cannot read oil temp. (Well, I think it probably can in some situations. I did have the thought of potentially repinning the ECU when I was doing oil pressure). I am using this into the MPVI dongle, so that the MPVI dongle can read oil temperature. It is attached to a VDO gauge which is obviously calibrated to whatever curve the sender actually is using. This would be easy if I could setup a table of voltage to temperature like many sensors, but it appears I cannot do this and can only setup the transform rule which appears to be Input (voltage) x Multiplier, and add an offset. This to me means it MUST be linear. So it may be a complete waste of time wiring this into the ECU. The idea was that the MPVI3 has standalone logging. I wanted to use this instead of a laptop with serial cable (for wideband) for long datalogs. Given the wideband also has electric interference, I may never trust this either in a world where the serial wideband and the analog output wideband do not agree. Last time I did a trace I could see the two wideband traces follow each other, but one was a little leaner than the other. I plan on playing with voltage offsets and actually driving the thing to see how close they correlate. If they never correlate... then, well, maybe I'll never use either. Ideally I'd like to have the Analog wideband read ever so slightly leaner than the serial one, because the serial one is 'correct'. Tuning the car to be ever so slightly too-rich would be the aim. Not needing to have a laptop flying around in the footwell connected with cables is... an advantage. About the only one from the forced upgrade to MPVI3.
