Luke we are not having a go at you or anything like that man

I just seriously believe these ppl know jack shit about cars (PMR33 will back me up there ) and if you are not happy get a second opinion as to why the car is down on power

If you are happy then good they did a good job for you

Well what else could be the problem if it is down on power???

I have been told everything is Sweet in the car by the mechanic! He said its one of the better GTR's he has ever seen in the shop!

So if there is someone out there that can tell me what else it is thats causing crap power apart from everything that has been checked, cause i will be listening!!

And can some one please tell me the RWKW's on a R32 GTR STOCK Straight out of the Factory back in the 90's!!!

I think someone needs to tell me what the Factory Rear Wheel KW's of a 32 GTR if it was taken straight from the factory floor and put on a DYNO!!!!!!!!!!!!

Claimed factory 206KW's

Actual figures 240KW's

This is at the fly-wheel I am assuming...correct me any one if I am wrong

Loss of power through the drive train etc.......brings you to around 160 kw at the rears...or 140 AWKW.

Wear and tear through age and carbon build up in your exhaust ie pipes,cat and rear muffler

combined with bad oils in your engine/diff/gear box can cause more than a 30% loss in power delivered to the ground.

The figures you stated earlier in this topic...the before figures confirm this.

The figures you got after PFC install and tune bought your power delivery back up to well over a stock motor(new).

Thinking again about your mods.....

I am suspecting your muffler may have a large build up of carbon.

Check your rear muffler.

If it is stock...get it re-conditioned.

Do not get a cannon.

Well it came with a Sheep Dog Exhaust when i Bought it but i did swap it with a Turbosmart Cannon about 2 Years ago. I liked the Look of a Cannon Rather then the oval style with the 3 Inch tip!!!

Still got it though!!!

This is a pic of the exact item!! (Not my pic though)

Loss thru 4wd drive train isn't anywhere near that high, i've seen a few ppl that have done back to back test 2wd vs 4wd on GTRs, lucky to be 10kW difference.

Besides this was already covered early on in the post.

Keep that if it is original...

The mufflers are very hard to find..I should know...have been looking for a GTR33 one for ages.

Luke.......if you have a chance to give it a run in a 1/4 mile drag...pm me your times.....

Just don't fry your clutch to much though....this will be your next mod if you do.

oh i don't think its a Factory Original!!! Just original on it when i bought it 6 years ago!!!

Pretty sure standard R32 RB26's make about 160-170rwkw as standard RB25's make about 130-140rwkw, obviously depending on dyno and in what condition the motor is in. All i know is from knowing quite a few ppl with similar mods on RB26's up here they make about 220-230rwkw with a Power FC, bit more boost and taking out major restrictions such as the exhaust. Now maybe that extra 20rwkw doesn't sound like much but thats around 35-40HP at the engine, hell thats a low of power to just "lose". But maybe its just something like your exhaust isnt that free flowing or your intercooler is a bit filled with oil build up or your engine is just getting a bit old and worn etc.

But hell, if it drives fine and feals fine and you don't really care about getting power out of the car and want just a nice driver, then who really cares, just leave it.

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
