hi, all, I so just bought my second skyline last month, its 99 R34 GTT. the car came with a 3 inch FULL exhaust, a hks filter and teinz coilover suspension. Last week IS Motor Racing at Rockdale supplied and installed a G-readdy electronnic boost controller for me, did a tuning on the same day.(139.5 max power at wheel). The guy told me my car is pretty much in stock condition, and all the stock R34s are between 130kw - 150 kw, only brand new can do 206 kw, for a 10 yrs r34, any where between 130 - 150 kw is normal. then During the tuning, he tested 0.6 bar first, was ok. then he tried 0.8 bar twice, failed twice, the power or boost was like goes up then drop down. what he explained to me was the stock computer will cut the fuel off if over boosted and strongly suggested me to buy a power fc. At the end of day. the guy setted 0.6 as low boost, and 0.7 or 0.65 as high boost...

we all know 1 bar =14psi, so 0.6 = 8.4 and 0.8 = 11.2

my questions are

1. is 139.5kw sounds normal with above mods?? i searched Autospeed website, says there stock R34 can do around 140-150kw, then plus exhuast and filter can do 160-170, and 180-200 with power fc on top of all these. 139.5kw is just fxxk sad and much less, though i heard every dyno machine is different, differnt dyno machine can give you different KW.

2. anything wrong with the tuning?? stock computer should allow u to boost to a safe level without fuel cut, i searched formum, most of you can boost to 11 or 12 psi with same mods as i have.

dont know what happened to my car, really sad now, please help, thx for reading this, ai~~~~~~~ paid $18000 for a piece of shit

139.5rwkw is 186.93rwhp

not bad really.......

throw on a fmic and get a safc2 piggy back ecu if your on a budget

or get a full ecu, will see alot more power

and 1 bar of boost is 14.7 psi

example

my car went from 90rwhp to 245rwhp with just a tune

So how the f**k did my completely stock r33 gtst s2 dyno 157kw atw. Took it to another dyno and it produced 155. i thought r34 produced more than 33's??

So how the f**k did my completely stock r33 gtst s2 dyno 157kw atw. Took it to another dyno and it produced 155. i thought r34 produced more than 33's??

numerous things

different settings

different dyno

different ramp rate

different air temp

and so on

~10rwkw is nothing to worry about

it is a reasonalbe assumption a bog stock r34 GTT would make more power than a bog stock R33

this assumes same dyno, same dyno, same operator, same settings, same environment

the ones you are comparing would not be the same, therefore whilst useful to compare in a ~ range, not a %100 comparison science

The 206kw quoted by Nissan is not rwkw but flywheel kw. Your R34 is probably a little low and you are absolutely correct in that different dyno's produce different power figures. As an example I have Nismo FMIC, Nismo Injectors, Nismo fuel pump, Nismo reg, PFC, Z32 afm, hks 2535, Tomei cams, Apexi pod filter and full exhaust system from turbo back and produce 210 rwkw @ .6 bar on a Mainline dyno but 247 rwkw on a Dyno Dynamics dyno. It's all in how they set up the dyno. Like the other guys say, get a good FMIC and ecu and then you end up like the rest of us ..... just feeding the addiction!

cheers and enjoy the ride

Yeh i would say get yourself a Front mount its prolly running quite rich once you start winding the boost up the computer just dumps more fuel to keep things safe. Doing just that made over 25hp difference on my 33 and i was able to run a little bit more boost it ended up running 178kw at the rear wheels on 10psi.

I have a 34 now running 8.5psi with a FMIC full exhaust Apexi pod filter flowed turbo and the same Greddy boost controller at the moment its running 173kw at the rear wheels but should be able to get much more just tunning the boost controller once i work out how to set it right.

Out of interest what settings did he put on your boost controller to get the max boost your running?

    • Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!
    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
