Cheers

how do they do it seeing as they only have a 2wd dyno??

drop the front driveshaft, pop the fuse, do the tune then get it ready for pickup.

I used to go to GWW but I feel boostwerx look after me with service and price

You dont need to do any mechanical mods to GTR's to dyno on 2wd, just pull out the ATTESSA fuse and the car goes to 2wd. Besides the dynotune is working on the engine, only needs one set of feedback from the rears to work (the only benefit in getting a 4wd dyno is that you can compare the power loss from the front driveshaft/diff assembly.. same way u can get it dynoed at the flywheel or the rear wheels, its just a question of application.)

If you're north of the city, I'd recommend Road & Track in collins st, enfield, their dyno guy Mikey has done excellent work on my gtr, from pulling 15 more kw out of thin air to getting rid of power sags. If you're down south tho, boostworx is the way to go (ive never been there but given the feedback on this board, he knows his stuff and doesnt charge an arm and a leg for it)

It's only on R32 GTRs that you can pull out the fuse to make them RWD. With R33 & R34 GTRs you to have drop the front driveshaft.

N1 turbos were made for all GTRs but are only standard on N1 or Nur GTRs. The R34 N1s are the only N1 turbos that have steel wheels instead of the ceramic exhaust wheel. There are also 3 different types of R34 GTR N1 turbos. You will find alot more info on them in the Forced Induction section.

so how will i be able to tell what ones they have on the car?? just by looking at them?

And they are a slight upgrade from standered?

I've had free horsepower before as well at other places.........the problem is, the way they usually get is by tuning your ECU to the point where they thin out the AFR's too much to the point of Too Lean and sometimes Detonation.......I always prefer slightly conservative tunes and my engine thanks me for it.

you will have to get the serial numbers from your turbo's. Iam running R34 N1 turbo's "Garret 2860r-7" on my GTR and pulling 314rwkw on 20psi. Tuned by Boostworx.

That's interesting.........I've got some -5's ready to go on with a PFC, full fuel, cams and intercooler upgrade so I'm hoping to pull at least those figures myself. Oh.....and a Kakimoto full dual N1 exh.

Did you have to do many other mods to get those figures?

      Nismo GT Pro LSD configurations

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Well, the trouble with that ^^ is: The configuration shown is absolutely a 1-way, not a 1.5-way. There is no way that a 1.5-way can be said to offer LSD action only on acceleration. If Nismo cannot get that right, then it is impossible to believe their documentation. That ^ is not a 1.5 way setup. That is a 1-way.   And so now I have allowed all doubts to flourish and have gone back to look at the MotoIQ video. I originally made the mistake of believing him when he said "this is a 1.5-way" at the ~6:10 mark. Because what he did was take the gear assembly out of the 2-way opening and just rotate it one place to the left to drop it into the 1-way opening. When he dropped it in there, the cam was "backwards" compared to the correct orientation shown in all other photos of that config. The flat shold have been facing the 1° ramp side of the opening, not the 55° ramp side. And I thought, "gee that's cute", but I was concerned at the time, when he put the other ring back on, that the gap between the rings looked like it was wider then in the 2-way config. And then I said a lot of things in my long post on Tuesday that could only make sense if the guy from MotoIQ was correct about what he'd done. BUT... I have now done my homework. I grabbed a frame of the video with the 2-way config, and then grabbed another with the "1.5-way" config, snipped out the cam and opening of that frame and just pasted it direct on top of the 2-way config. I scaled it so that the triangular opening was almost exactly the same height in both. AND.... the gap between the plates is wider with the cam installed in the triangualr opening backwards. That is.... it cannot go together that way. There would be massive force on the plates all the time, if you could even reassemble it.  So, My statement on the matter? The Nismo diff is actually only a 2-way and 1-way. There is no 1.5-way option in it, regardless of what they say. Here's a photo of a real 1.5-way ramp opening from Cusco (along with the 1 way option). And the full set of 1 through 2 way options from their racing diff, which is not same-same as what we'd typically be using, but...the cams work the same. A little blurry, but it comes from this Cusco doc, which is quite helpful. AND.... Cusco do in fact do what I suggested would be sensible, which is to have rings that do 1 and 1.5, and 1.5 and 2. Separately.

      Well it wasn't as easy as I thought.... and it also wasn't in my original manual which I did end up finding. They discuss the process in the Nismo catalogue though and it requires slight machining. Page 145.  NISMO PARTS CATALOGUE 2020

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I'm an idiot, my intercooler is rated for 1000hp. I had clicked on the wrong product. Knowing the delta P would be nice, but I'm doubtful I'll do it. Now as for an EMAP, that would be great and I'll get around to it eventually but from my findings in my last post, I'm considering a turbo swap now.
