Hey guys some of you may no me from this forum i've been building my GTS skyline for a while now. originally non-turbo, now with rb25det and lots of bolt-ons etc i was aiming for 300hp atw.

So far mods are:

KKR480 Turbo, Otomoto Dump Pipe, Nismo Stainless Front pipe, 3" stainless cat-back, Nismo 740cc injectors, nismo front strut brace, apexi dual pannel D1 forced pod filter, apexi turbo timer, apexi PFC, greddy intake manifold, greddy TB adaptor, greddy typre RS bov, greddy oil catch can, HKS wiring harness, JJR boost controller, Racetech Boost gauge, Hybrid FMIC, walbro intake 500hp pump.

now i had the car tuned yesterday and it looks as if i achieved 192.6kw at the fly i think? the dyno graph is included in the post!

It is running 10psi on the 'street type' actualator provided with the turbo charger. info is here: http://www.otomoto.com.au/kkr/KKR480.html

let me know what you guys think of it how it looks, any comments on it and possibly what i should do to achieve my figure!! The garage recommended a EBC, to up the boost and to bring it on earlier. Think this will help alot?

Cheers guys, Hame! :D

first of all congrats on seeing such a project through :down:

looks like yea flywheel kw so whats that translate in rwkw- about 20% off? that would make it about 155rwkw which is pretty much stock rb25det power :D

im not really familliar with the kkr's but it looks like your have the support systems to push boost a little higher safely, but you and your mech will know its limits.

it will prob take a few more computer tweaks and dyno runs to iron everything out, but your on the right path i reckon, best of luck dude

I'd be getting it tuned for at least 15-16psi then going from there...

Get a full exhaust... then you should have all the supporting mods to get some power... also not sure on KKR's what HP figure's are they rated to...

192RWKW is pretty low for an aftermarket turbo ect ect

I and many other have made that on the stock turbo.

Seeing how you have all the supporting mods i would increase boost to about 16-18psi.

I dont see why 230-240 couldnt be achieved.

EDIT: Please say you have an aftermarket ECU.

not sure on KKR's what HP figure's are they rated to...

my understanding is that a kkr480 refers to 480hp or 355kw (~300rwkw)

and kkr430, 430hp or 318kw (~260rwkw). i could be wrong. id be impressed if a kkr430 made 260rwkw.

congrats on the project but as for the power not so good for the mods u hav my car made that power on stock turbo running 11-12psi and it was 37degrees!! so i would def be buying ebc and crank the boost up to round 16psi then u will see some decent power. goodluck jarad

yeh u need to bump it up to around 18-20psi to see anything exciting out of these turbos lol

they r cheap they do last but dont produce the figures or torque u would like haha..

good luck with it

just a quick note once u start winding boost into it plus having a free flowing exhaust no cat etc u will run into serious boost problems

reason i had to run 50mm ext gate.

thanks for the comments guys really appreciate it, i am a little dissapointed with the results.

to answer some of the questions directed at me:

1. i do already have a full exhaust system

2. yes i do have an aftermarket ecu (apexi power FC)

3. i pretty sure the flow rate on the kk4480 is 480hp.

okay so basically wind up the boost?! i have a manual (JJR bleed type) boost controller sitting in my garage. i

1. if i fitted this up and got it running 16psi would i see a good power increase?

2. would it REALLY effect the tune?

3. if i look into an ebc what should i get? (i have looked at the boost controll kit that comes with the PFC)??

Cheers hame!

If you increase the boost you will need a retune.

So enjoy the car for a bit, when you get bored of the power go to your tuners and get the boost controller installed + a retune.

As for EBC the Profec B 2 is the best bang for your buck.

ahh bugger wish i had thought of this before i had got the tune! ah well cant win them all it a learning curve! it has been a long road and i guess at the end of the day im happy as i built her at home with no prior knowledge! thanks NYTSKY for the info i'll look into the profec B 2.

Why in hell is the operator using flywheel KW?? i own the same dyno and have never used this feature....

your figure seems pretty low mostly because of boost, you should be able to safely run 16psi all day, ive done a few NA+t's pushing mid 200's and they often see track days...

moring guys, thanks for the comments i was hoping it was atw i mean if it wasn't that is basically stock power!? just dosen't make sense! it is not a NA+t. it is the full rb25det engine conversion. So any more ideas? can i just bump up the boost with a manual controller without a tune?

JUST: asked tuner on phone he said that it is ATW not at the fly like the dyno grpah suggests!

    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.  
    • Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go
