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.

T.

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:

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
