Hello,

I have noticed the Car "GOLGO" R33 GT-R Midnight Purple in colour is really weak.

It ran 13.3 Down calder a long time ago.. and now on the Dyno only powering 180KW!!! .. i just wanna know is this normal or totaly stuffed up ?

thanks mate

Golgo is tuned to blow flames out the exhaust. :D

dave : i wasnt being a dhead.. i just wanted to know what modifications he had.. as in Exhaust and stuff.. most GT-R's pull just under 200 KW with a full exhaust.. GOLGO was just not all so good for the crown.. even James went red after he saw the results..

Thanks dAve :D

if its stock theres nothing wrong with 13.3, thats all mine did stock, but that was a 8000rpm launch too and not everyone likes to launch it at redline, 180kw at the wheels prob sounds about right too?

13.3 is about avg. for a soft launch and avg. reaction/60ft times.

Something well into the 12's is possible.

180awkW is also avg. for a stockish RB26.

golgo isn't designed to be a rocket, just a nice machine all round, as I'm sure James would agree :D

With 200rwkw a low 13 or high 12sec bracket is about average for a 33GTR. Its the ATTESSA that makes it grip nicely and get the better times than the 33GTS-T

There is nothing wrong with GOLGO. Golgo is a stock R33 GTR with exhaust and that's it. The car's O2 sensors are pretty far gone and hence it is running rich and therefore makes a better flame thrower than a race car. The 13.3 was done with a slipping clutch so it is capable of doing a high 12 which is right for a stock GTR.

The 180awkw is an accurate figure of what the car should be making with the limited mods and tuning.

It is going to be worked on by ICE in the near future so things should pick up soon :rofl:

    • The powder coating came in at $250 EACH. The TRX rims got a coat of clearcoat on the outside only.    
    • Bit wet, but YUMMY
    • Keeping in mind that I am currently getting flat 10 L/100km on my RB25DET, which means >>500km/tank. I would test this car for vacuum leaks, check codes and AFM signal with NissDataScan as D says, check plugs, do a compression check while they are out.
    • It is hard to be specific half way across the world...but it *seems* like it might have a minor issue. Is the idle stable and does it rev smoothly? I would not expect any pops out of what I am assuming is a standard ECU, standard tune, standard exhaust. You can use Nissan Data Scan to find out exactly what is happening when it runs, the cable/software is reasonably affordable if you are not planning on changing the ECU (which hopefully you are not with an NA skyline) BTW your mileage may not be that far off, these are heavy old tech cars, and being NA might mean you use a heavy foot to keep up with traffic....
    • Hey guys! Y'all are the masters so figured I'd check in on a few items here. - My engine sounds ever-so-slightly more raspy than the other NA RB25s I've listened to. It's barely noticeable but definitely a slightly different sound. - When I back off the throttle at high RPM, I will sometimes get a pop out of the exhaust, assuming this can be diagnosed as misfire. Some history on the car: - Had an exhaust leak in auction sheet but was claimed to be fixed by seller (bought from USA importer).  - Car's coil packs and sparks were replaced when it was sold to me, but unsure on what the gap is and whether the coil packs are correct.  - A prior mechanic had misdiagnosed a pilot or throwout bearing sound as LSPI/detonation. Had played with timing a bit, pops/raspy sound of engine just got worse. Got timing reset. - Had failed emissions a few times. First time went in as is, failed. Second time, replaced cat, still failed, running rich as hell. Third time replaced o2 sensor, passed. Car still smells gassy though. - Timing belt and valve cover gasket also replaced.  - Gas mileage is... low. about 350-400K per tank.  Any idea if I'm having any serious issues here or does this all sound like normal old NA RB stuff and I'm fine to drive it with the pops/slightly raspy engine? If it'll help, I can get drop a video of the sound of the engine.
