I have 12 degress on intake and 10 on exh, and with stock cams and stock turbos the R32 makes 292rwkw @ 19 psi, the 34 has 10 degress intake and 4 exh with poncams and -7s made 310rwkw, so 8 in and 4 exh i doubt thats going to cause the problem.

I'd be looking at the intake pipes for a leak or crack, check all hose clamps are on right and tight, check the BOVs bolts are done up tight, even go around the plenum with a can of brake clean with engine running and see if idle changes at all to see if a gasket has given way or a small hose hasn't come off.

6/7 kw is a sizable loss but not what your looking at as the problem but something I'd be looking at improving

Take out air filter and stick a screw driver handle in the airbox to hold it open and see if that helps

them mayby look at different dump pipes as x-force are an upgrade to only the stock 32/33 stuff but only just and are not the best, I picked up 20kw (290 awkw to 310rwkw) from changing from HKS dump pipe to the CES Comp Series dumps and front pipes, I hate knocking stuff so this is really only a suggestion

Thanks for the post. I didn't know you could run that much boost with stock R32 turbos. I'd say DVS JEZ will go through those things providing the compression test comes back ok to start with. Also... could leaking piping be the issue if its still making 17 p.s.i which I'm guessing is read at the inlet manifold? Which is after all the piping, cooler etc?

And as far as I know the xforce dump pipes are an exact copy of the hks ones (split type) that surely should be sufficient enough for 300+kw?

from what ive read and from before/after dyno graphs i dont think that the dumps would be the issue

they would be 100% fine for 300kw and lots more

XKLABA i dare say that ur 20kw gain would have mostly been from ur front pipe change, there are large gains had from changing to bigger diameter front pipes

you can run that boost for short spurts, dyno and drags but not burnouts or track events and have done so for 8 years now with two sets of turbos, first set had to be changed cause the bearing where gone with 4mm + shaft play and no damage to either wheels.

yeah comp test is a good start but if it isn't given a slight wiff of blue smoke from exhaust then i'd say comp would be good, a small but consistent leak would be over come with the boost controller making the boost level, also check there isn.t a leak around the exhaust manifold before the turbos, even a small leak will rob power.

Joe, the design of the dump pipe can make a big difference ( bigger then front pipes ) in both responce and power and if you get to see the CES comp series pipes in real life you can see way they work so well, I've tried a few styles on both the 32 and 34 and i have CES on both now, the normal ones on the 32 with equal lenght front pipe and the longer comp ones on the 34

I remember reading a thread in this forum where some had a mildly modded gtr (around 300rwkw)

they performed a before and after test using stock dumps and then some after market larger dumps

the difference ended up being 3 fifths of f#ck all

not sayin ur wrong but at these sorta power figures i dont think the dumps make that much difference,

not doubting that CES arent a better dump either, i just dont think the dumps are his power problem

ill see if i can find the thread

As data point, I'm running xforce split dumps with -7s on 17psi and making 305kw. Factory air box. Another reason not to focus on the dumps at this stage is that changing them is a big job, so you only want to consider it if you have very strong indications that they are the problem. So, IMO, forget the dumps for the moment.

What are your front pipe dimensions? FWIW the primaries on mine are 56mm ID and the secondary is 76mm.

Other than front pipe, I'd be looking at your inlet side for leaks or restrictions.

What spark plugs are you running and what gap? I had an issue with mine when I first got it Dyno tuned, ended up having something like 0.6mm spark gap

Had spark blow out and wen we turned the boost up more it didn't gain any extra power

To be safe I changed my coilpacks and coilpack wiring loom too

MrStabby - front pipe is exactly the same dimensions as yours.

SiR RB - I'm not sure what the gap is as I left that all to the tuner but I know the plugs are just the ngk cheaper ones

I have faith in DVS JEZ to get to the bottom of this Jon

Checked the front of the exhaust cam for wear? how is the ignition timing be set? don't use the loop at the back of the motor, get a plug lead and shove it up coil #1, then run the light off that, with the TPS unplugged.

This means get a timing light, remove No 1 coil get a old school lead for twim cam cut it in half stick one end on the spark plug and the other end in the coil and read the timing light off the lead, we on the other hand just open the timing light reader and hold it against the front of the coil with it still in place, to check if you base timing is correct.

+ 1 on comp results

as for the dump pipes, it was a suggestion for something to check as a possibility, coming from things i have exprienced in the near 10 years i have been playing with these cars and was something I reseached heaps in the path of getting the 32 as fast as it is.

The front pipes on 34 where the HKS ones with a 76mm in and 80mm out equal length, I don't think there was 20kw from changing them.

    • I can ship Nismo floor mats to you: https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/nismo-floor-mats-for-skyline-r33-bcnr33-stagea-wgnc34?_pos=1&_sid=9278c1467&_ss=r  
    • Here's the link: https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6642/misc/G49?frame_no=WGNC34-137122 What you think about it? The same product i found on nengun: https://www.nengun.com/oem/parts/40567/MiPwn5qAMfCfmpxHNDnwn5q9MDAx8J-QiW9sZC1qcC0xMTAtRzQ5LS0wMDE/Floor+Carpet+%2F+Mat+2/0688339eba149c19 Bot i have spoken to 😅 ensured me, that mats are 100% original, oem product. I have my doubts. I also heard what you mentioned, that nengun often offers items that are actual not available... On the other hand mats i found on japanese yahoo or ebay are in poor condition and still quite expensive so i'd rather wait for some better offers. My location - Poland. We literaly don't have ANY market for used Stagea parts so need to search outside Europe.
    • You can’t see much on the other side as the lcd is there I don’t think it’s the same as the m33 beside it as the markings on top is not the same was hoping someone had a good quality photo or if they just happened to have the unit in hand, quickly take the cover off and take a photo to clearly show the marking on top to identify the diode   the unit is currently with an electronics repair shop so I can’t take another photo at the moment hopefully they are smart enough to know if it’s a zener diode or not
    • I'd be very surprised if you can buy new OEM mats. But if you can, I want some too!  Do you have links to the variations you found? Also, where are you located? I found that Nengun is happy to list items to purchase but when you do buy them you'll get an email that it's actually discontinued. As far as I know the variations in floor mats are different colour schemes as well as automatic and manual having a slightly different shape. The automatic ones fit into a manual car without issues, but I think you'd have trouble fitting the other way around. I have photos that show the shape difference if you care. FWIW I bought sets of used floor mats in decent condition at yahoo auctions.
    • Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏
