didnt this thing struggle to make 450rwkw or something at autosalon? thats bit shy from 1002hp if im correct LOL

car was on semi slicks..... been covered 100000000000000000 times already..... unfortunatley the owner though semis worked better on dyno... the exact opposit is true.

bro

as you can see.

even this tuner scare to answer why from 1002HP drop down to 450kw.

maybe he just play some magic in front of his customer

would love to see URAS prove his 1002HP on public dyno

:( :( :P

there is ZERO way to fudge the dyno it has ZERO owner inputs which affect power output. Car saw the track a week or so and had a few issues apparentley so was unable to complete a full run but from what i heard from some of my other customers the cars was still sideways at 3/4 when it came close to taking out the timing box :P so hopefully they can fine some speed and put a decent time on the cards.

id be happy fo the car to go to another dyno under my supervision and run by the owner of said dyno and if ames wnats to do that i wld even pay for the time, but at the end of the day neither i or the customer have anything to prove... it is his car and his perogative.

i could post up another batch of cars making well over 700hp that have proven themselves at national dyno comps but that doesnt seem to make a differrence....... i dont need to prove anything to anyone other than the customer if they are happy then thats all that matters.

mate by posting things like that you just look like an idiot.

if you dont have anything worthwhile to say dont say it at all.

good to hear the car is now at the track Trent...keep the updates coming...any 1/2 track times/speeds available?

I wish Dyno's only had the ability to print out air:fuel mixtures only.

or that there was only an on or off setting.. no loading, ramp, temp correction etc.

or a way to connect some sort of sensor to the fly wheel to actually read engine hp.

number of cry babies here is crazy

hi champ

any up date with the power?

any track time ?

would love to see you prove the 1000hp.

:verymad:

Apparently the car lasted 2 runs down the quarter. Not sure what the time was for the first run but on the second run the engine disassembled itself throwing its guts out on the track. Damage was catastrophical, maybe turborxp can tell us more...

oh and btw.. u dont lose a fixed amount of power.. its a percentage. :)

every single engineer knows this.. are u one?? i would say not.. am i?? most definately :sick:

also.. power is just torque with rpm... if rpm climbs higher than torque drops.. power rises

i noticed it drops off extremely quick up the top thou.. not even stock turbos do that.. whats the deal there??

100% agree, the fixed loss drivetrain myth is SO ANNOYING. I beleive the principals of angular (rotational)accelleration are quite straight forward, applying more force to a rotating body will increase losses incurred in the conservation of angular momentum.

I love that people are accusing Trent of fudging figures.....how many cars have you seen that put out big power have issues on dyno days,

Ive personally seen TOPRPM stuggle to make 400rwhp on the dyno and the next day it was back up to 800+ and all the problem was a loose wire for the boost controller so it was only running gate pressure.

Many cars inculding my own have issues every now and again and are down on power due to somthing tiny.

    • Cheers. Skyline is back on the menu, can’t get rid of it. It’s like a child you don’t want, or herpes 
    • I got back to Japan in January and was keen to get back on track as quickly as possible. Europe is god-awful for track accessibility (by comparison), so I picked up a first-gen GT86 in December just to have something I could jump into right away. The Skyline came over in a container this time and landed in early January. It was a bit battered after Europe, though—I refused to do anything beyond essential upkeep while it was over there. The clutch master cylinder gave out, and so did the power steering. I didn’t even bother changing the oil; it was the same stuff that went in just before I left Japan the first time. Naughty. Power steering parts would’ve cost double with shipping and taxes, so knowing I’d be heading back to Japan, I just postponed it and powered through the arm workout. It took a solid three months to get the car back on the road. Registration was a nightmare this time around. There were a bunch of BS fees to navigate, and sourcing parts was a headache. I needed stock seats for shaken, mistakenly blew 34k JPY on some ENR34 seats—which, of course, didn’t fit—then ended up having the car’s technical sheet amended to register it as a two-seater with the Brides. Then there’s the GT86. Amazing car. Does everything I want it to do. Parts are cheap, easy to find, and I don’t care what anyone says—it’s super rewarding to drive. I’ve done a few basic mods: diff ratio, coilovers, discs, pads, seat, etc. It already had a new exhaust manifold and the 180kph limiter removed, so I assume it’s running some kind of map. I’ve just been thrashing it at the track non-stop—mostly Fuji Speedway now, since I need something with higher speed after all that autobahn time. The wheels on the R34 always pissed me off—too big, and it was a nightmare getting tires to fit properly under the arches. So I threw in the towel and bought something that fits better. Looks way cleaner too (at least to me)—less hotboy, less attention-seeking. Still an R34, though. Now for future plans. There are a few things still outstanding with the car. First up, the rear subframe needs an overhaul—that’s priority one. Next, I need to figure out an engine rebuild plan. No timeline yet, but I want to keep it economical—not cutting corners, just not throwing tens of thousands at a mechanic I can barely communicate with. And finally, paint. Plus a bit of tidying up here and there.  
    • Nope, needed to clearance under the bar a little with a heat gun, a 1/2" extension as the "clearancer", and big hammer, I was aware of this from the onset, they fit a 2.0 with this intake no problems, but, the 2.5 is around 15mm taller than a 2.0, so "clearancing" was required  It "just" touched when test fitting, now, I have about 10mm of clearance  You cannot see where it was done, and so far, there's no contact when giving it the beans Happy days
    • It's been a while since I've updated this thread. The last year (and some) has been very hectic. In the second-half of 2024 I took the R34 on a trip through Germany, Italy, France and Switzerland - it was f*cking great. I got a little annoyed with the attention the car was getting around Europe and really didn't drive it that much. I could barely work on the car since I was living in an inner-city apartment (with underground parking). During the trip, the car lost power steering in France - split hose - and I ended up driving around 4,000kms with no power steering.  There were a few Nurburgring trips here and there, but in total the R34 amassed just shy of 7,000kms on European roads. Long story short, I broke up with the reason I was transferred to Europe for and requested to be moved back to Japan. The E90, loved it. It was a sunk cost of around EUR 10,000 and I sold it to a friend for EUR 1,500 just to get rid of it quickly. Trust me, moving countries f*cking sucks and I could not be bothered to be as methodical as I was the first time around.
