300 RWKW using the GT-RS

I think the one you are thinking of is 'thizzle' he was one of the first guys in AU to get the GT-RS

it was setup at BD4's from memory and it made a touch over 300rwkw with cams and other junk

since then no one else has come close to that mark - im not saying its bullshit or not, but average GT-RS is around 260-270rwkw

there's a few other "high scorers" some that come to mind;

grepin's 2835 setup

again - it doesnt mean the figures are bogus, they are probably legit

but i suspect there some info from the puzzle missing, theres always a reason a car makes more power etc.

you dont make extra power from magic dust or magic tricks.

Interesting discussion guys. I agree with SK that boost isn't what determines horsepower. The formulas are good indications of likely power with standard aftermarket mods, though each car's setup can have so many variables the formulas can't be taken as any more than a guideline.

Certain mods (like cams) will shift an engine's powerband around depending on the setup the owner wants, so this can throw off the calculations as the maximum power at a certain boost pressure will be higher/lower than the same turbo on stock cams. Setups like these would obviously be classified as outliers in graphing power vs boost, so that will automatically distort the formula depending on whether you keep the outliers/disregard them.

There are too many variables to generalise RB25 power levels IMO. But the formulas come very close, closer than an estimate at any extent.

I think your right on the money, i got my 34 dynoed today and i got 240.6kw atw on 15psi. Unfortunately i ran out of fuel as im still waiting on my injectors to come. Ahh well, the gt-rs is a sick turbo, i get full boost at 3200!!!

Hi guys,

I conducted a regression analysis using the output figures and boost ran from the dyno thread relevant to the RB-25 engine with a HKS GT-RS Turbo.

Basically, a regression analysis is a form of statistical modelling that attempts to evaluate the relationship between one variable (Boost - PSI) and another (Power output - RWKW).

This data will help you 'predict' what sort of power you would get if you have an R33 GTS-T (RB-25 engine) with a HKS GT-RS turbo and other supporting mods of course (ie. Front Mount I/C, Full exhaust, Fuel pump etc etc) running the boost of your choice.

Basically, select the amount of boost you wish to run, and look at the corresponding output figure next to it for an estimate of how much power you would be making.

This analysis is ONLY a rough guide, please do no use it as a definite determinant since all cars are individual and differ to one another.

This post should eliminate those repetitive questions such as; 'How much power will I make if I run XX amount of boost with a GT-RS turbo on my R33?'

Nice turbo, just finished tuning a customers car silver SII r33 277rwkw @ 1.1bar which is bit of a suprise as it was bought from the auctions as an unknown.... turns out to be a stolen and recovered jobbie with full whiteline and bilstein handling kit, 555cc injectors, PFC (i had one laying around) and hybrid cooler... and of course a HKS GT-RS

it is almost identical in response to a 8cm T67 kit i did for a customer awhile back but is a little short on top end.

interesting topic...

i just got my car back today with a 2835 pro s (.68) and its making 265 @ 19psi ... click for more detail

bombtrack has a neo gtt with EXACTLY the same mods as me but with tomei cams and will be getting his done soon on the same dyno / tuner

will post results when it happens

Wow at only 1.1bar? That's pretty impressive. Why didn't u run a bit more boost through it, surely it would have still made a bit more power at around 1.3bar...

Yeah, the customer asked for the best result i could get a 1.1bar so i did what i could, it definately would run bigger numbers easily but he's happy :D

I just looked at the dyno chart in that Grepin thread... 322rwkw with sub 10:9 air fuel ratios!?! something not quite right there

would love to get 300rwkw out of the 2835... pointless on the street but would be heaps of fun on the track... I don't think it would quite get there tho

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
