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?

    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
