Reading all this has got me thinking that i should try to get my turbos on before this event so i can get over the 300kw mark aswell. I'll make some calls tomorrow and see what i can organise :)

yeh come join the 300rwkw club Chad....lol

Just buy a heap of G size bottles... and while the import cars are running, open all the bottles into the dyno cell - extra power and a nice relaxed and cheerful mood for everyone :D It might cause a fire, but that just makes it easier to cook the BBQ food.

Ken/PIMPED, 400rwkw using 550cc Sard injectors... that's what i call pushing the limit!

I'm going to do my best to make it to this dyno day, as it sounds really interesting. It'll also be interesting to do a rough comparison (power curve, peak values, turbo response etc.) with my own dyno runs on Shaun's dyno - there's about 90+ of them saved on the thing ha-ha.

I might even have the tuning finished by then and could try and help bolster the import figures - I 'may' be able to offer low 300's at the rears - best of 302rwkw so far. It might squeeze out 315-320ish once the cams are set-up and a few more pounds wound in.

What we - the import team - really needs is for Darren's R31 to be up and running - 550rwkw would help push the total up nicely.

yeah im abit worried bout that atm, going to 1000cc soon, but i hope the 550cc will hold out for 400, fingers crossed anyway, but it makes 300 with easy, fuel is running really rich atm, was told rich enough to get almost 400rwkws with but i would be pushing it, i dunno, ill get it on the dyno and see what we can do, and the remap of the 32 ecu is wicked, better then my power fc in my old 33

Nitrous oxide is not flammable.

Correct. Oxygen is nonflammable too. However, what these gases are very good at is supporting explosive combustion, all they need is an ignition source and a saturated concentration - think dyno cell full of G size bottles opened fully and then add a red hot manifold. I'll be the one standing over the road :P

Next time you're at the drags and you see someone purge their nitrous system, don't stick your head near the stream of purged N20 smoking a cigar... unless you want to look like Micheal Jackson :O

I guess it depends on how 'real' those 400rwkw are, if you get my drift. To safely support a genuine 400rwkw you are going to to be pushing well beyond the safe level for 550cc injectors. I wouldn't risk it. Wait till you get the 1000's in.

just grab some NOS and spray it into the intercooler MRVLT style.

hahah yeah that was the funniest thing to see on the autosalon dyno

they could have just used fire extinguisher

it would have done the same job lol

even funnier the power figures didnt really improve though lol

Using LOX (liquid oxygen) would 'kind of' work nicely at externally snap cooling the intercooler :)

I can't recall the exact LOX temp off the top of my head (- a few hundred 'c) cryogenic freezing temp's that's for sure. It also has an expansion rate of 600ish to 1, as in 1L of LOX = 600L of gaseous oxygen. So watchout when it reaches a source of ignition! Great for speeding up the BBQ cooking times, it'll cook snags in microseconds, then melt the BBQ and burn a nice hole in the ground under it :)

Anyway, back to the dyno day conversation. Any info' on the domestic entries?

hey buddy who did u get to remap your 32 ecu??

jeff at turbotune, did a good job, isnt cheap for most people though, lol, also i wont be boosting her up anymore, keep her at 300rwkws, 550s wont hold out, it will lean out to much, 20 psi is pushing it with them, so 16 psi will have to do, will still be in the 300rwkw club though, if there is such a thing? lol, hope to see u all there

Good move mate, as it's just not worth taking the risk. Get those bigger squirters in there first, then you can crank up the boost safe in the knowledge the fuel system can support it.

We are both at a similar point actually, as I'm just about to upgrade to a new set of 780cc injectors in my 33 - my 550's are no longer up to the task... especially for E85.

so urhhhhh what are you going to be doing with the 550cc injector? :O

Ha-ha, yep, I'll be selling them. However, one potential problem. I have a custom top-feed fuel rail, which means my 550's won't suit the OEM RB25DET rail.

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
