hey i recently brought a skyline r34 gtt everything is stock, so i decided to put it on the dyno to see what is puts out in only managed to do 184bhp (i think that it feels faster than that), i was told that they came stock with 280hp is that right, anyway i was devo when i saw the results so i booked it in to get a after market ecu and an electronic boost controller (getting done on 17th). i was wondering what the next upgrade would be best to make more power out of my car.

stock r34 gtt (neo) is 145kw at the wheels, which is 194bhp so your result is right on the money.

I wouldn't trust that site if my life depended on it.

1. The information was all ripped from these forums about 4 years ago.

2. Its out of date, never updated

The best info is always found by searching these forums, rather than some muppet who claimed limited info from these forums as his own.

IMO that site should be shut down as there is so much wrong with it that it gives me a headache to read

ANYWAY - 206kw = 280hp

184bhp is about 134rwkw... so that sounds exactly right give or take a 10kw difference for dyno's etc

So realistically there is nothing devastating about it at all, its a factory car making pretty much exactly the factory HP/KW.

To be honest you need a full exhaust etc before a ECU/Tune... You wont get anywhere near the gains with JUST a ECU/Tune as you would if you put a decent flowing exhaust on there

don't be upset dude, as others have said. if the car is stock (completely) then thats RIGHT on the money on what your car should be making. Look at getting an exhaust and an EBC running around 10psi and you'll be making about 160rwkw maybe less depending on the dyno.

First question, no, that's wrong.

Second question, there are threads on this, what exhaust system are your running? And are you running a decent cat converter?

Yes, people often go the ECU + more boost + exhaust system and either a pod filter or airbox panel filter upgrade + good tune and get a nice gain :D

Hey, maybe im a bit confused, i thougth that the GT-T's came out with 206kw(flywheel) as well as the GTR? Ok maybe not 206 but it should still have considerably more then the R33 (187).

So on paper given a high 20% D/T loss, a healthy GTT should see around 160-170rwkw stock form am I not correct in thinking that? 184hp is a mere 137rwkw.

When was it serviced last?

Could you post up your dyno sheet by any chance?

yeah here is dyno sheet

If a mechanic advised you to spend money on an ecu and boost controller, before exhaust and even a better quality air filter (in the airbox), you should go else where; It seems he is just interested in making the most money from you and doesn't care about your interests.

Fair enough he may have gotten confused about the power figures etc, but any good mechanic would recommend upgrading the factory exhaust system first.

guys, seriously now, a "non-happy dyno" on a stock car will go anywhere from 120-140rwkw depending on the health of the car and other factors. as al said too, you're mechanic is probably saying that to you to squeeze $$ out of you. oh dude your car is really low on power you need this this and this now to make it go hard.

first things first. get an exhaust, a cai, and maybe a hi-flow cat. you will notice a very nice gain alone just with those mods.

if your going to be boosting it id be putting a larger intercooler at the same time.....

also the r34 gtt is alittle heavier than the r33 gtst so the extra engine power is almost cancled out so not much differnece in actual real life power between stock r33 and stock r34...

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      sold listed as a Tomei LSD 1.5 Way For 1998+ Nissan Skyline ER34 25GT RB25DE w/Open R200 https://www.ebay.com/itm/174006114594?campid=5338967980&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&toolid=10050&customid=&mkrid=711-53200-19255-0&loc_physical_ms=108689&loc_interest_ms=&campid=5338967980&mkevt=1&mkcid=1&toolid=10050&customid=71883f2ccc571356e0a757bc7adfdde2&mkrid=710-53481-19255-0&loc_physical_ms=108689&loc_interest_ms= it went in like butter all gears, alignment, back lash etc, rotation and clearances correct, and if rolling all rotates smooth and free when coasting down road , clutch in or out over 10 mph smooth... its the binding, clunking and jerking from a stop that is most concerning, also seems like its going to tear the tires off in 10 miles of normal road driving.

      What 1.5 way? There's no such thing really as a 1.5 way, just different ways of explaining 2 ways with different ramp rates. HOWEVER. In any driving in a straight line your 1.5 or 2 or 1.7 way should have no clunking at all. With the clutch fully depressed the diff should be silent (unless it's welded but I'm assuming it's not). Something aint right here.

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By JC71 · Posted

      looking for some help and maybe some insight on others experience with a new LSD. R34 GT ran and drove beautifully, but always alot of grip loss due to the open R200 rear end, so I just installed a new 1.5 LSD way into the stock open R200 for a ER34. Simple. Everything seemed right. I test drove for the first time this weekend. as I started to back out the garage the first time slowly with tires straight it sounded and felt like I had a loose or half disconnected drive shaft...that was clucking around loose and shaking entire vehicle, and making it feel like the trans clutch was spontaneously slipping then grabbing very roughly while just letting out pedal slowly. I backed it out went to pull forward with the same noise, shake and slip grab feeling with hesitation, I turned the tires to back out more and then pulled ahead some same thing but worst because of added wheel resistance (which that I expected) puzzled … pulling it back in checking everything over and finding nothing wrong, I tried it the next day. same thing, couldn’t believe how it shook everything again making a terrible noise and making it feel like the trans clutch was slipping and grabbing, but I got it out of garage into the driveway, got it straight, drove forward and then reveres a few times in a straight line everything shaking , causing what felt like clutch slip and grab every time, sounded like right behind front driver tire and I could feel it in the floor board with my feet,... worst right when beginning to let clutch pedal out to engage slightly, shuttering and sounding terrible along the way…I managed to slowly get down the road, babying it the whole way, once I was rolling (out of 1st) seemed to be better and between shifts, then clutch felt closer to normal…not slip/ grab etc., but back down to any stop, straight road or turning, same thing. Made no difference if all tires were straight or if I was turning. All other gauge read out correct. with in 2 miles as planned I reached the empty parking lot and performed the break in procedure that came with lsd, essentially to drive in a figure 8 a bunch.  Did this, binding chattering, and shaking the car the whole way. I drove it back home seemed somewhat normal once I was in straight line and past 10 mph or so, and I know it will “bind” on corners and cause some tires squeal when turning especially from a stop, but when I begin to move it still causes what feels like the trans clutch to slip and jerk badly as well as shaking the entire car, and sounds terrible, that I didn’t expect. I used the fluid they supplied with LSD kit and did the breaking, planning to change fluid as they suggest after breaking, but wondering will it get smoother or less aggressive with use? maybe a 1.5 is just too aggressive for normal road driving?   I have a LSD that I put in my 71 cuda when I restored it, with amazing smooth , quite yet effective results. Different style LSD but that ones a joy to drive. maybe expecting too much from this R200?
