Hey fellow skyline owners , i need help diagnosing a problem i have with my r32 gtr

LACK RESPONSE/POWER fresh engine and turbos

my rb26 has been rebuilt 6 months ago , at that time

issues arose trying to time the engine . the CAS (crank/cam angle sensor) was too far left and timing was reading 20 .. CAS sensor should be closer to middle ... timing belt is perfect if u r wondering

2 tuners at chasers confirm my timing is right , but dyno shows poor power curves due to tune/timing

the CAS sensor is therefore turned and Power is good

233 kwatw's

2 weeks later it lacks response/power ,suspecting tune/timing

change the CAS sensor, time the car 233 kwatw's

2 weeks later it lacks response/power .

ENGINE RUNS FINE, doesnt miss or hesitage or make f**ked noises..... just LACKS RESPONSE/POWER over time

between 1000 - 3000rpm slight response loss 3500 when boost comes on lacks intake spool noises and alittle turbo pull

4000+ lacks TURBO PULL ... still goes but lots of PULL power lost

forged , stock turbos rebuilt stock ecu

my next step is stock gtr ecu or mines ecu what u guys think

pm me after u post pls :)

    • You Gregged a whole racetrack!?
    • Look for broken wire or bad connector at the motor. Might not be it, but is worth starting there, as it is easy.
    • Hi everyone, I’m having an issue with my R32 GT-R. Sometimes, when the car goes over a bump or experiences some vibration, the 4WD warning light comes on the dashboard. When I check the code from the control unit in the trunk, it shows Code 19 – ETS Motor. However, everything seems to be working fine — if I turn off the engine and restart the car, the light goes away and everything functions normally. Has anyone experienced this before? Where should I start troubleshooting this issue? Thanks in advance!
    • I'm back from the dyno - again! I went looking for someone who knew LS's and had a roller dyno, to see how it shaped up compared to everything else and confirm the powerband really is peaking where Mr Mamo says it should. TLDR: The dyno result I got this time definitely had the shape of how it feels on the road and finally 'makes sense'. Also we had a bit more time to play with timing on the dyno, it turns out the common practice in LS is to lower the timing around peak torque and restore it to max after. So given a car was on the dyno and mostly dialled in already, it was time for tweaking. Luis at APS is definitely knowledgable when it came to this and had overlays ready to go and was happy to share. If you map out your cylinder airmass you start seeing graphs that look a LOT like the engine's torque curve. The good thing also is if you map out your timing curve when you're avoiding knock... this curve very much looks like the inverse of the airmass curve. The result? Well it's another 10.7kw/14hp kw from where I drove it in at. Pretty much everywhere, too. As to how much this car actually makes in Hub Dyno numbers, American Dyno numbers, or Mainline dyno numbers, I say I don't know and it's gone up ~25kw since I started tinkering lol. It IS interesting how the shorter ratio gears I have aren't scaled right on this dyno - 6840RPM is 199KMH, not 175KMH. I have also seen other printouts here with cars with less mods at much higher "kmh" for their RPM due Commodores having 3.45's or longer (!) rear diff ratios maxing out 4th gear which is the 1:1 gear on the T56. Does this matter? No, not really. The real answer is go to the strip and see what it traps, but: I guess I should have gone last Sunday...
    • 310mm rotors will be avilable from Australia, Japan, and probably a few other places. Nothing for the front can be put on the back.
