yea, im pretty sure its not high flowed - plus i just gave it a proper strap and its not feeling near the pull my friend gets in his 254rwkw r32... so.. i guess ive been had.. damn you APC!! :)

thanks for the input guys! i guess ill question them about it tomorrow when i ask about the boost level...

interesting....you are the 3rd stock turboed car i have heard of to make that exact number at APC...interesting

Be careful what you say. :) You're only permitted to praise workshops here, not flame them. :banana:

But def sounds suss.

oops -- well, i guess they did give it back in one piece.. lol

and it is part my fault for not doing my homework.. but who has the time damn it?!?!

btw this site rocks! awesome responses - skylines ftw woot!

yea.. so i called them - they say its running boost 12.5-13psi... not cool im guessin

jus posting the dyno print today - i cant see boost level on it..

I know this is a bit old but did you notice that the torque was 6oo nm thats a big load of shit if you ask me the sheet they gave you was from another car :)

Hmmm, interesting. The dyno sheet does look pretty legit and you can't really "fake" 40rwkw, like 10kw or something i could understand, but 40!! Only thing i can think of is that it is another cars dyno sheet, or you do infact have a high flowed turbo of some sort. Personally i would give them a call and say "Look, everyone i have talked to has said the RB25 turbo cannot physically flow that much power in standard form, so what do u think is going on?". See what they say...

    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car.
