The current one is capable of 330rwkws. I'm looking to trade that 30kws for roughly 300rpms of response making full boost of 20psi by 3900 Rpm instead of current 4200 rpm.

I'll finally be buying a turbo off you around July so ill see where your at with FNT and VNT designs of the G3 then. VNT sounds like it will be great if its a reality that soon

After studying motion of the vnt turbine setup I'm wondering if it actually creep heat when the nozzles directs in opposing direction. Appears the nozzle arrangement needs to be reset from scratch for it to work. Or for what I want it to do.

I've contacted Matt to see if he might know what could cause the corruption, as everything was perfect a month a go when I last drove the car.

There's Nistune documentation that talks about ECU corruption and how it can be caused. Worth a read. A loose Nistune board is just one path to corruption.

Ah great, do you know which of the documents it's in? I've contacted Matt about it but he hasn't replied yet.

Thing is, I didn't touch anything related to the ECU, and it was perfect when I drove it in. Surely it has to be something related to my messing around with it all, it's not just coincidence?

So this is going to take a while?

Thanks for that mate.

Makes me wonder whether the message was passed on that my ECU has a Stagea image in it. I forgot to tell Sean when I dropped the car off, but I phoned up and let them know, the bloke was confused but he said he would write it down. Now I wonder whether or not he told Sean before he started trying to tune it, if he tried to use the R34 image with my ECU then it wouldn't have worked. I'll have to give them a call tomorrow morning and get hold of Sean himself.

You might be able to get away with editing the fuel & ignition maps (and most other normal tables and scalars) in the Stagea image using the R34 address file, because I've been doing essentially that myself over the last few days. Load up the Stagea address file, then the bin file for what's in my ECU, then an R34 bin as comparison, and looking to see where the differences are. As you'd expect, the two ECUs are essentially the same. Same ECU, same engine. Just a few differences in the ABS/TCS department.

But....because you can do that, it might be very easy for the tuner to use an R34 address file, load up an R34 bin file, then sync from the ECU and or/ sync to the ECU and perhaps cause havoc. Just because there are some differences.

depending on how much problems I might encounter. would be couple of month at least.

Sweet as. ill keep an eye out

I'm waiting till July now till I get something so if its not far off by then I might just wait.

Sounds like it will be impressive :)

This assembly should have some effects, With the device engaged the turbo gains faster response how ever the engine pins up top, with it disengaged the motor picks up 8 degrees of timing up top but loses big chunk of power band down low. So I want it to be engaged till about 20psi then slowly released after that point to gain the top end timing. That way we should have fat power band from start to end.

Yeh well when Matt reprogrammed my board with the Stagea image, he was able to upload my current tune so I could just plug it back in and it was like nothing had changed. Except the misfire at about 5000rpm from the ECU pulling timing was gone.

But if the message hasn't been passed onto my tuner and he is trying to start with the R34 address file and then sync the bin file from the ECU, it wouldn't work as you said. But then I have no idea what he meant when he said it looks like it has earthed out, so I'm not sure.

Your the man stao!

I'm keen to seen how this turns out. I have 2 friends who just acquired RB25s and hopefully will be looking for killer upgrades in time for production on these.

Hello, ive got a r33 s2 and wondering what is your best hi-flow turbo for response, only looking to make 220-250rwkw, stock internals with associated mods. Its a daily and would be looking to run between 10-14psi max.

cheers

Standard high flow would be suitable for your applications. I'm generally seeing around 240rwkws with option, how ever I'm recently seening some 260rwkws results based on 15psi from Toshi's remaps using stock injectors, afm and ecu.

So for your goal, get the standard high flow, then pm toshi for ecu flash and that should archeive it.

    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
