It’s around a 15% driveline loss.

So say 255awkw + 15% loss (38kw) = 293rwkw = 392rwhp

Which is about right for a standard N1.

@super coach tristan: tried a new grip tonight and got 51 with a strike rate of ~210 :blink:

Also got about 2 dozen stumpings and catches behind the stumps and a few wickets bowling. Good night (y)

To break it down more, rwkw to flywheel kw is roughly x1.33

so, 293rwkw x 1.33 = 389FLYWHEEL KW

Both post's above are rough, everyone has different veiws on loss and conversion rates

Maybe all these while the 300kw I had in mind was rw not aw. But the fact that the car feels lighter/smoother really surprises me. 1st gear used to hit limiter at 60-70km/h now it goes up to 80+. Amazed.

A stock N1 will never make 300awkw, unless the dyno is happy, or you tell the tuner to input 300awkw on the graph lol.

Your car is very healthy and is on par - What else is done to it?

Ok, the list is as below

1) Trust Ti-R exhaust

2) HKS Front Pipe

3) Apexi Power FC

4) Apexi Boost Controller Kit

Thats all. Everything else is stock. 1.15bar I think (on the pfc hc). Cant get it to hold 1.2bar. No engine mods. Injectors are max at 90%.

Glad to hear the tune is good Brandon, who tuned it for you?

They must have lifted the rev limit a bit :blink:

Gavin Woods @ Autotech. Shit loads of GTRs... oh and 1 Tommy Kaira 32 (dont know real or not)

Sort out why it's not holding more boost

- Get a better fuel pump

- Throw in some larger injectors

- Get a good set of cam gears

Spend more time on tuning and you will have a friggin quick car..

Your lack of boost.. They're N1's even 1.2bar is tame... and lack of fuel is why you only got 255awkw. IMHO, with the above and a very good tune you should get up around 280awkw, if you run more than 1.2bar..

If I'm ever gonna get it tuned again, I'll try Matt Spry.

Both Gavin and Matt gave me a good impression when I called comparing to the others.

He reckon its restriction. Or maybe injectors (he's not comfortable running higher than 90%). Or might be the boost controller (I've heard the kit doest hold boost very well after 20psi)

Don’t get me wrong, Gavin knows more about Nissans than most people – however to cut a VERY long story short, I bought a second hand Q45 throttle body from a wrecker, unknown to me at the time the wrecker swapped the TPS unit for a ca18 unit, which meant the car wasn’t tunable… My car was with Gavin for a full day and he couldn’t find what was wrong with it.

I took it to Matty and he found within 5 minutes that the TPS had been swapped over, we put the correct Q45 TPS in and had it tuned…

I know where I will continue to keep going back

      R34 Handbrake light saying ON and intermittently flashing

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      This. The R34 handbrake icon DOES come up when the brake fluid level is low. You might be sitting right on that threshhold. I have been down this diagnosis path and this was the solution (and it was pretty much as full as your picture is to begin with).

      Unfortunately the cavaet to that is that while any scan tool should be able to read the code, the workshop will need a consult plug to OBD socket adapter. You don't have a location on your profile, where are you based?

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.

      I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.

      @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation.
