Guys the mechanic said the at the peak power (Power rais) i had wheel spin. he usually use the 4th gear to test the max power. :)

I am very happy with it. and im ganna boost the car up to maximum 20 psi just for a try at the Eastern creeck ..

results later..

Roy,

 

Does it make power up near 8000rpm? or just flatten out and slowly drop off?

Yeh ive been running around at 1.0bar a bit and its still revving and pulling nicely at those revs. I need to get it the track where i can wind out 3rd and 4th gears, on the street at 1.0bar 1st and 2nd gears is all i can use, kind of :Oops:

For the street i think 200-220rwkws is more then enough i doubt i have much more then that and its all i will ever need. :D

RBsileighty-  Im running a full exhaust system :( I NEED IT ;)

Now that I cleared up that full exhaust includes a cat in the PM (not always sure on slang when we are dealing with two countries), I wonder how much power that cat is holding back at that power level? We don't have emissions testing or visual inspection where I am!!!

The full exhaust systems usually increase around 20 kw from stock standard.

By the way my mistake guys.. my turbo kicks in at 3200 RPM. coz i thought wen u start getting stock to the seat its wen boost comes in. but i checked with my friends its actually wen the gauge shows 1 psi the rev is on 3200 and i have the full boost on 4900 right to 7500-8000 RPM.. but it goes very quick. specially wn im using 17psi... And i also asked my mechanic about boosting up to 20 psi . he shook his head and said i need a spark booster. which i put it in my next upgrade (major) in cluding RB20+forged pistons+crank shafts+the booster = 400+ rwhp.

With my setup atm i think ill run around 12.7-1299 ( hopefully) coz other user told me he did 12.99 mith his r33 with 206 rwkw. but i got 215.4rwkw, so fingers crossed. as long as i get the power to the ground. thats all maters and a good start.

So sorry for the confusion guys.

Regards,

That is great to hear that boost comes on so early. Looks like I might be copying your setup more or less bud, as 400rwhp is my goal!

How would a GT30R .60 A/R or a GT35R .70 A/R (these are the standard a/r's i've seen for these turbos) compare with the 3040? These turbos are easier to come across around here.

Wow... I couldn't handle lag where only 1psi is made at 3200rpm.

My plan is to have it all in by at least 3500rpm making around 400rwhp.

Also.. I would start looking for another mechanic if he is telling you that you need a spark booster. Gap the plugs down and slap a cooler plug to suit the power you are making.

You will only be making 400rwhp which can be done easily with the stock coils.

Clint32 made 243rwkw with a TO4 (bush bearing, full boost some where around 5000rpm) 17-18psi from memory on the stock coils, injectors, remapped ecu. He ran a 12.8 1/4 @ AIR.

Joel, you will need nitrous for "My plan is to have it all in by at least 3500rpm making around 400rwhp" from the rb20, otherwise you will need a car with more cubes. My rb25 waS making that at over 4000rpm. Cant see how a smaller engine will do. Its just not do-able on rb20.

Hi guys, I am getting very tired of this spark thing, where inexperienced Skyline tuners say that you need some sort of spark improving device way too early in the development. We have a perfectly sparking RB26 running to 9,000 rpm that makes over 600 bhp at 1.8 bar on the standard coils and ignitor.

My rule of thumb is pretty simple, if the car is running a standard ECU or Power FC then the standard coils and ignitor are fine. When we need to go to a Motec ECU, then I use the Motec CDI and Mercury outboard coils. It's an expensive solution, but I have yet to find anything else that gives a guaranteed improvement over the standard set up.

Bottom line, as Joel said, don't waste your money MRPREZ.

    • Well, all the best with the new camry It was interesting to hear about the UK process, it is generally a lot more streamlined here with a shipping agent looking after all the import side (noting the exact final price can still be a surprise.....) and I've used a few different brokers on the japan (or US) side, and never had any trouble with any of them....luck of the draw I guess. You mentioned you didn't get the auction sheet (understandable since you bought it from a dealer, not auction), but I always try and get hold of that because they are pretty thorough. I've imported 2x R grade vehicles over the years and both were fine, repairs in Japan are pretty thorough compared to here in Oz.
    • BTW I measured the jack I have, it is 70mm at the saddle but you only have about 700 until it returns to 150mm high at the cylinder so it is good but no magic bullet.
    • My experience with Rising Sun Exports Before agreeing to the sale I tried to do as much research as I could (obviously), his Facebook reviews are 98% and he goes Live at least once or twice a week. I contacted 2 people in the UK who had used him for their imports, both had positive feedback. His explanation and talk through of the import process was thorough, answering any query no matter how stupid it was. It felt as soon as the money was sent, communication dropped off. I asked for shipping updates every 2 weeks or so, not wanting to pester him, he never had any updates. I wasn't informed the car had been dropped off at the port, I only found out by his Facebook story. I asked for the photos taken at the port, knowing he would need some for insurance purposes. I received a few 5 second clips and that's it. When asked again, he said his staff had them. Weeks later I asked again, he tells me he doesn't have any, but does have 50 photos from the original advert. I never received them. I eventually got the documents sent via WhatsApp after I mentioned the port was requesting them. I purchased a CarVX report, to find out the vehicle is a Grade R with recorded accident damage, first recorded in 2017 when it was first auctioned. He never told me the grade, then again I didn't ask. His response was "Grade R means nothing, it wasn't chassis damage". Still, I would have liked to have been informed about it. Jon prides himself on being open and honest when it comes to inspecting cars, it's his main job doing so at the auctions for customers. When the vehicle arrived in the UK I noticed a few little cosmetic issues. It's a 21 year old car so it wasn't going to be mint condition. The side skirts are cracked on each corner and the sealant is failing. The front grill on the bonnet/hood isn't secured very well, mounting studs are missing. Both minor things, but again, it would have been nice to be told. During a Facebook Live walk around video of the vehicle, he mentioned it has a front Whiteline anti roll bar/sway bar. While on the inspection ramp, I noticed the stock item has been installed. When first questioned, his response was "the ARB? Switched? Since when, it never had them". Since sending video and photo evidence I've not received a response. I'm probably being over critical of the overall condition of an old car, but all I wanted was honesty (which he claims to have). I'm aware I wasn't his only customer, he's busy doing XYZ but other reviews praise him for great communication with regular updates and photos, I felt I didn't receive the same treatment. 
    • I was able to get some underside photos while the car was on the ramp The suspension is all Altezza/IS200/IS300 so getting part's will hopefully be less of a headache
    • Welcome to my 2004 Toyota Mark ii IR-V Fortuna (series 2) With a 1JZ-GTE powerplant under the bonnet (hood) it'll give me plenty of scope for power upgrades. For those who aren't familiar with imports, the 1JZ-GTE is a 2.5L 6 cylinder VVTi engine with a single turbocharger. This has the factory R154 5 speed gearbox, along with a aftermarket 2 way LSD differential (brand unknown). Under the arches are a set of CST Zero 1 alloys, 18x9 +30 225/40 up front and 18x9.5 +15 265/35 on the rear. The car was quite low in Japan and there's evidence of the wheels catching the rolled arches/fenders. The tyre's aren't great so I'm in two minds whether to replace both or just the tyres and put up with the wider wheels on the rear. The car still uses stock brakes with the addition of some braided hoses. The exterior is stock with the exception of a BN Sports front bumper and a replacement Fortuna grill  Moving to the interior, the steering wheel has been replaced with a dished MOMO steering wheel (which will get swapped for my Momo Tuner for the time being) Defi Link Gauges are mounted above the climate controls and on the A pillar, the Oil Temp,Oil Pressure,Water Temp and Boost gauges should help with spirited and track driving  The stock seats have been replaced with some retrimmed Recaro bucket seats. Being a larger build these are a little snug, unfortunately the orange isn't for me so I'll look into replacing these down the line. Other modifications include a twin plate clutch, Blitz intercooler, Evolve alloy radiator, a stainless exhaust with decat, HKS EVC-S boost controller and coil overs
