Ken - My brother's R33 made 466rwhp on 20psi with an externally gated GT35R.

Basically he had bolt on mods - hks cams, hks exhaust mani, greddy copy intake plenum, xf falcon throttle body, external gate, custom exhaust system, standard pistons, rods, rings, crank etc, standard rb25 gearbox and standard rb25 diff.

That motor is still going today, 5years after it was built and it has never had one single problem.

RB25's are good for 500rwhp on stock internals, trust me.

You will make 400 easy on your 34.

Going for 400+ RB25 with stock internals is a bit risky but then again depends how you drive it.

Your 34 is a track car right? Your going to give it a good thrash most of the time ;)

How man ks has your neo done?

I would like to know how long your engine lasts with 400 usage on the track.

Don't mean that in a bad way at all.... could last a very long time who knows.

Neo in the 31 has done 20oddks since install 3 yrs ago and its seen it all from drift , drags to tarmac events . cant realy say " yea made 450hp n lasted me 2 yrs " when in fact it only done 1000ks at track . With Andrew tuning the car i know we will last the distance .. current Neo has copped massive limiter abuse and still runs strong

Only thing raped harder then my 31 is SkyRyan butt :D

That is the shit I like to hear! :D

Thread revival:

Some nice results there. I'm getting my GTR tuned there next month for my new setup. Switching out from N1's to 2860-5's. They said I'll probably only get 400-450HP atw with my setup. But my engines been rebuilt with forged internals, larger Cams and all the supporting fuel mods and PFC DJetro to tune it with.

From what I've read in this thread is that this dyno gives fairly modest readings for HP output is that right? I was really hoping to break into the 500hp atw at least!

I wish you luck. I have/had similar set up and to say the tune from said was disappointing is an understatement. 6 psi more boost, same max hp and torque and massive loss of mid-range over original tune. Maybe just a bad day.

Keen to hear how you go.

hmm well that's no good. Was this the same dyno that you had your previous setup tuned on?

Was just thinking because readouts between two different dyno's can't really be compared to eachother, in fact a lot of people say that's still the case even between two runs on the same dyno.

How did your car drive after the tune? i could imagine it'd be slightly laggier, but overall did it feel any faster?

Ran a base line with original tune first

Driving - Not well. Dyno sheet only proved what you could feel from behind the wheel. Lost a lot of mid range - went from a fat convex curve to a hollow curve all through the mid range. I was expecting the sort of numbers you are chasing and ended up well short - and it drives like it.

There were some boost control issues with the EBC but a manual T should still hold up. Again it could have been a bad day....?

So disappointed I am retiring that setup and spending $$$ on a new engine package and EMS. If this doesn't deliver I give up. This time the tune and set up is being done on an engine dyno for pump and blended fuel.

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
