Back in the day you your required a highflow to push over 200rwkw.

These days the dyno's push 200rwkw on stock turbo's so I believe its just the dyno's reading a little happy.

The dyno I run on typically 190rwkw is what a stock turbo'd r33 can achieve with the usual boost - 12psi, tune, exhaust & fmic. Throw an adj cam gear on and you can squeeze it a little over 200rwkw.

As R31Nismoid says the power figures 'these days' just don't add up with the MPH.

yeah mine was done by someone in melb and on 10psi and im making just shy of 185 (on a spazz tune that has huge flat spot) only wished Toshi would come to melb so mine can be fixed up!

I dont know about "safely" on the std turbs, some shit themselves at minimal boost my concern is how it drives, mines a shit bastard to drive afterwards as fark all light throttle and cruising adjustments are made, mine feels like I have lag as soon as the air gets cooler...although I like the extra 20 odd kw, I really dont think its worth the headache if your car is in standard form.

to answer your questions you cannot compare the "drive" of my setup now and before. before it felt like shit. rough, flat spots, not a very smooth band of power at all. now it feels much more refined but at the same time injecting more power with each gear. even at low rpm on low boost feels so much smoother.

so rb20's will just make 200rwkw with rb25 turbos but rb25's wont?!?

depends if your from WA or not i think mainly.

Generally you see RB20s make around 170-185rwkw on 14psi or so with the RB25 turbo (going by the results in the RB20 dyno thread)

i think he meant R32s with full RB25DET conversion. no way a RB20 with RB25 turbo can make 200kw.

If you want a remap. Sam AKA Dr Drift does them and is conveniently located in Melbourne ...

i don't think he does the R33 Remaps, he installs a daughter board on the R33 ecu making it live tuneable... and that costs over 1k plus tune costs..

or else id be happy to go to him for a remap..

thats what Toshi does :banana:

All figures aside as i believe that you can go to 3 different dyno's and get 3 different readings... how confident is anyone about how much power they are putting out... 1/4 mile times also is not all about power i think set up and driver ability come into it as well. ..... I am very happy with the way my car performs now after a remap from Toshi.... I am not going to modify my car any further and it did seem to have a flat spot in the mid range before ... after the ecu was changed over i noticed a big difference in the way the car pulls under heavy acceleration was much better than before and appears to do it through out rev range, car seems much quicker, smoother and power is more linear (i did up the boost a little as well)...

i just got 509kms out of 52.7 ltrs was mainly open road driving with occasional squirts thrown in as i was wanting to see how good my economy was as well (did change O2 sensor) but all in all DRIVABILITY , power and fuel economy is all good and im very happy for the money I spent. I dont have the fastest car on the road but it is quick and it runs well :-) was a good option for me........my 2 cents worth.....

its wierd how wa dynos make so much power, but then when you send over "eastern spec" mainline dynos over for autosalon we still make more power than you... maybe the air is just more oxygenated over here?!? haha

ooooooooooooooooo really

i agree with you. its easily not the fastest on the road but damn i feel it is definitely quick enough now. and quick enough to put a lot of cars to shame too. before i dunno i just didnt have the confidence that the car was running as well or was as quick as it should be. this remap was all it needed.

You theory is flawed.

By what you're saying, I should be making 220rwkw because I have an RB25 turbo on an RB30..

A turbo will make the same power on whatever motor it is on because it can only flow "so" much air. Smaller or larger capacity will just make the power later or sooner.

I also resent the WA reference, not all of us are dyno fiddling dodgy brothers :D

I second that.

I am running a RB20 with normal bolt on mods, GTR injectors, GTR fuel pump, R34 RB25 turbo and a Nistune Remap and I am making 195kw.

Next thing needs to be AFM.

nice curve impressive. i didnt think R32s with RB25 turbos could make so much power

Cheers, unfortunately I don't know what the before and after was for the JUST the remap, as I installed the turbo and injectors, towed it to the shop and got it tuned.

So i noticed a huge difference, but it wasn't all from the tune obviously :blink:

    • My thinking is that if the O2 sensor is shot then your entire above described experience is pure placebo.
    • Here is the mess that I made. That filler there was successful in filling dents in that area. But in the middle area. I can feel dents. And I've gone ocer it multiple times with filler. And the filler is no longer there because i accidently sanded it away. I've chased my tail on this job but this is something else lol. So I'm gonna attempt filler one more time and if it doesn't work I'll just high fill primer the door and see where the issues are because guidecoat is of no use atm.
    • Ok, so I think I sort of figured out where I went wrong. So I definitely overthinked it, and I over sanded, which is probably a large part of the problem. to fix it, I ended up tapping some spots that were likely to be high, made them low, filled them in, and I tackled small sections at a time, and it feels a lot better.    I think what confused me as well is you have the bare metal, and some spots darker and some are lighter, and when I run my finger across it, it' would feel like it's a low spot, but I think it's just a transition in different texture from metal to body filler.    When your finger's sliding on the body filler, and crosses over to the bare metal, going back and forth, it feels like it's a low spot. So I kept putting filler there and sanding, but I think it was just a transition in texture, nothing to do with the low or high spot. But the panel's feels a lot better, and I'm just going to end up priming it, and then I'll block it after with guide coat.   Ended up wasting just about all of my filler on this damn door lol  
    • -10 is plenty for running to an oil cooler. When you look at oil feeds, like power steering feeds, they're much smaller, and then just a larger hose size to move volume in less pressure. No need for -12. Even on the race cars, like Duncans, and endurance cars, most of them are all running -10 and everything works perfectly fine, temps are under control, and there's no restrictions.
    • Update: O2 sensor in my downpipe turned out to be faulty when I plugged in to the Haltech software. Was getting a "open circuit" warning. Tons of carbon buildup on it, probably from when I was running rich for a while before getting it corrected. Replaced with new unit and test drove again. The shuffle still happens, albeit far less now. I am not able to replicate it as reliably and it no longer happens at the same RPM levels as before. The only time I was able to hear it was in 5th going uphill and another time in 5th where there was no noticeable incline but applying more throttle first sped it up and then cleared it. Then once in 4th when I slightly lifted the throttle going over a bump but cleared right after. My understanding is that with the O2 sensor out, the ECU relies entirely on the MAP tune and isn't able to make its small adjustments based on the sensors reading. All in all, a big improvement, though not the silver bullet. Will try validating the actuators are set up correctly, and potentially setting up shop time to tune the boost controller on closed loop rather than the open loop it is set to now. Think if it's set up on closed loop to take the O2 reading, that should deal with these last bits. Will try to update again as I go.
