Guys,

Car has been in the workshop for about 5 days now and went on the dyno today any Produced a Poor Result of 151 RwKw!!!

Mechanic Put consult on and was coming back with all perfect readings, did compression test, 150 over all 6 Cylinders, Pod Filters, Brand new Oil and Filter,98 Premium Unld,Brand new Iridium Spark plugs gapped at 0.8, 11 Psi Boost and came back with a Dyno Reading of 151 Rwkw!!!

At this stage the mechanic is stumped!

Mechanic tried this:

Thought it may of skipped a Tooth on timing? No Perfect!

turbo's Playing up? No Nothing wrong with them!

Air Flow Meters- Perfect!

Consult Came Back with 2 Minor faults that need to be looked up but dont effect Performane (Maybe!!!)

What he is doing tomorrow is gunna check the Stock Cat Converter....

If this aint the Problem then he is Stumped!!! (not really what ya wanna hear from a mechanic!!!)

Mods: Pretty Much Stock.

Twin Pods

Aftermarket Dumps

Aftermarket BOV's

Thats It!!!

UPDATE 21 MAR 08

Went and saw mechanic yesterday afternoon to see what was going on. They have successfully gained another 20kw buy adding an extra 5 Degrees on the Cams but this is not stock. They apparently spent 8 hours of solid time on it( FOR FREE TO!!!) on wednesday and were chopping and changing things and managed to come up with the extra 20 Kw buy the cams.

At this stage they wanna try a new ECU but they have none there that are stock. So now i have been asked if i wanna buy a Aftermarket ECU to Plug in and Play! But if i decide to go to a Power FC, there could be a chance that it still runs the same!!! So now gunna find a Power FC and Try to see if it works again!!

Any one know where i can get one CHEAP!!!????? Mechanic Quoted me somewhere between $1200 and $1400 for a FC!! Seen them on Ebay NEW for $950!!! Oh and they suggested i get a better intercooler cause the one i have now is damaged! Been like that since i bought it! Some minor Fin damage. Always thought it was stock but apparently it isnt i was informed yesterday!!( I can always remember a Nissan Part Number or something similar on the top or Bottom though after i resprayed it!!!) Maybe there Pulling my LEG to get me to spend money?????????

UPDATE 6 APR

Got car back from mechanic on Friday. All Problems fixed with POWER FC and making 200 Rear WKW's.

ANY BODY GOT ANY OTHER SUGGESTIONS OR CAN HELP????

hey mate that sounds about rite.. depends what mods u got but when i got mine dinoed and tuned i made 150 awkw on 9psi 170 on 11 psi and198 on 14 psi... thats with a tuned power fc, full survice just been done new timing belt oil cooler, cat back and pods...

i was a bit disapointed with my read out aswell but it still goes alright.

good luck

Could you list your mods please so we can determine what sort of power you should be getting.

Thanks

This is whats in it!

Everything is Pretty stock except for:

Pod Filters

Aftermarket Dump Pipes

And Turbosmart BOV's.

92 Model 79xxx on the Clock.

Mechanic Reckons it Should be at least around the 200Kw at the Rear Wheels! They actually Disconnect the Front Shafts instead of Taking out the Fuse! Reckons is can F#ck up sensors or some crap!!!

nope, he's wrong.

My mate with a R32GTR and brand new engine, stock turbos made 220rwkw on a powerfc full tune.

150rwkw sounds about right, maybe a little more but not that much. Aftermarket ecu makes a big difference.

Get one.

Thought Stock HP was about 270 HP which equals to around 200Kw???

I and few other people i know first hand, made between 205-220 with pods, and a cat back. Those two mods will naturally raise boost to about .7bar

Tuned a PFC later and made 4 more KW (safe tune, much more ign down low)

EDIT: This is very old, almost embarrassed about the AFR's.. I meant Safe with a capital SOFT :P It wasn't like this for long.

his not wrong.. ur wrong

a stock gtr will pull about 170-180 @ all 4 wheels in stock trim... they dont make 206kw @ fly either.. that was just the manufacters claim to keep the government happy just like supras.

They make more like 220-230kw @ fly.

and 220rwkw is pretty weak for a "full" tune power fc.. most ppl make around that with just exhaust, filters and some boost @ all 4... with comp most ppl look @ around 230-240 @ all 4....

I made 287kw @ all 4's with just a pair some hi flows... they arent much bigger than stock and certainly smaller than N1 spec turbos..

Hey mate!

Those Stats mate are they at the Rear Wheels??

Theres an amount of preload on the transfer case clutch packs. Removing the fuse means the plates are rubbing on a stationary friction plate.

In the grand scheme of things, the wear is negligible; everyone does it when tuning. Concerned people remove the drive shaft, but by no means is it required.

Make sure they're not just doing it, to rack up trade hours :P

Some Good info there! Thanks Mate!!!

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
