Hey all just a query that I have. I ended up going to powerplay yesterday and myself and a mate ended up putting our car's on the dyno and was wondering if this horsepower is good for a fairly stock r33. I have a series 1 r33 manual which produced 202.7hp with basic mods: pod, super direct ignition coil packs, and tomei fuel pump. Meanwhile my mate has a series 2 r33 auto which produced 204.5hp with pod, 3inch dump, aftermarket exhaust system (unsure of size maybe 2 1/2 inch?) and a bigger fuel pump. I thought that my car being a manual would of easily had more horsepower or am I wrong in thinking that?

i saw the auto one run,it seems about right on the money for the power.33's came out with 180kw at the engine,If you factor on approx 20% drivetrain loss it would work out right for a stock car, so with a few small bolt ons,( your fuel pump would of made no difference unless you had more boost into it etc) 202hp is right.My blue chaser that ran after it made 255hp with slight mods but way to rich fuel mixture so could rev it out all the way to release it true to date potential.

    • A few suggestions: Do you have the option of retarding your exhaust cam gear to bring the power band over to the left? VCT would be turned off after you make peak torque, you see the power/torque will decay faster with it left on all the way to the limiter Once VCT is turned off, you'll find the motor will take a bit more timing being ramped in Send its mum, more boost! Of course, depends on your exhaust pressure.

    • I was back on the dyno again yesterday after completely revamping my methanol injection system. I was making 440kw at 19psi. Great, this is more then I was making last summer with my old meth system at that pressure, and I figured it would be smooth sailing up to 30+psi. We continued increasing from there and by 25psi, I had only hit 455kw. Dyno sadly lost utility power at this point and I left. We seemed to be on course to hit the same power wall as last summer (477kw@27psi). This is a built RB25 S1 stroked to a 2.8. Built and ported head with Kelford 272/262 cams. Precision 6466 Turbo. Tuner last year believed the power wall is a mix of RPM limitations (Hydro lifters/Limit set at 7600RPM) and fueling. With my new meth system, we're seeing zero knock now but it still won't go up.  What else can I do at this point? Here's my train of thought.  - It's clear from the dyno graph that I would easily make power to 8500+RPM but I'm limited to 7600RPM. I could risk increasing my limiter, but hydro lifters have me worried. What are my options here besides going NEO head or solid lifter conversion? I'm rocking a 1.05AR turbine on my 6466. Would dropping down to a .84 help shift that power down in anyway? - We're only seeing roughly a 30kw difference at the top end with VCT on or off. Is this normal? I want to confirm VCT is working properly. - Should I look into other cam options?  - Should I just keep increasing boost and see if she wakes up later on? I would expect to hit 600rwkw around 35psi with my 6466.   
    • First thought is to use a ram mount (to hold the ipad) + windscreen suction mount. The arms on the ram mount can be as long as you like, should be able to position the ipad pretty well with that setup.
