None of those torque figures are accurate unless an inductive RPM pickup was put on the engine, or the derived rpm generated from wheel vs roller speed (not quite as accurate). If you have Killowatts at the Roller and an Engine RPM figure, you can of course calculate a "Derived" Torque figure, remember if you have any 2 of the 3 components of Power (HP)= (TrqFtlbs x RPM)/5252 equation the 3rd can be calculated. Mainline dynos do this very accurately with their excellent RPM pickup, but like any top level chassis dyno they give Derived Torque which is simply Torque at the Rear Wheels (or front or all 4), so essentially it's the Flywheel Torque minus Driveline losses.

If you want a torque figure calculated correctly for any of your cars let me know and I can run them with the RPM pickup in place and generate true derived torque for each vehicle. At least that way you can make accurate comparisons :)

Note when an inductive pickup is used to measure rpm on the older version of DD software that most of you seem to be posting the torque is represented as iNm rather than straight Nm to let you know its been measured with an inductive pickup :D

Yo, Adrian (sorry, I couldn't resist) guess what? Although I didn't have my GTS25t at the recent BW dyno day, not long before that day Shaun did a tuning dyno run that resulted in 302.3rwkw, and pretty much the same torque peak too.

Have I mentioned yet, that I'm keen to get the 780cc injectors fitted, HKS cams dialled in, E85 tune done and then wind the boost up? Hurry up and arrive injectors!

Looks like its got a bit more in it if you were to tweak the ignition and afr's for max power. :)

Afr's in what i would call middle of the range .8 to .85, ignition has had a little tickle, who knows how much is possible with e85, I tend to think it's a flow issue, 1. std comp cover 2. std exh manifold. I think i can discount the valve springs floating, maybe some bigger cams would help!

I'd be interested in that. I know someone that would be interested in Golf GT tweaking too :D

    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
