Impressive power for an unopened motor. ...

Not sure if Royce has posted here, but he is running 730whp on his stock bottom end neo.

Or maybe it was 630. Either way, impressive.

The precise symptoms I was talking about. My 33, and a couple of other customers had the same issues after using motul. Not sure why.

What Nulon did you put in your 33? How long was it on the motul with ticking before you swapped over?

Sorry for all the questions!

He's now at 850hp on standard bottom end. Only has cams/springs/studs. Check post #1035 in rb25 turbo upgrade dyno thread.

That dyno curve looks like a V8's, need's some early spiking on the controller

Was that in reference to my dyno ? When it gets retuned i will have the ebc in there that boost is just straight from the waste.

Reason i havent gorne higher boost is no studs or gasket but may look at setting it to spike upto say 20 and run 18 19 should also make 30 40 more uptop this time as got free flowing exhaust to go in

Problems with motul oil was almost instant in my R33, Which is why I thought there may have been an existing issue with the lifters, but then was told about the exact same issue with other 25's. Couldn't tell you how long I had the motul in there with the lifters.... but it wasn't long. New lifters in, and full flush and oil change, including oil cooler etc. Never had another issue.

Tuner didn't elaborate on the other 33's at his shop it'd happened too, just it was why he doesn't stock or use motul any longer.

R33 Gts-t series 2

mods: Highflow op6, 1000cc xspurt injectors, aero flow top feed rail, straight through 3" exhaust, z32 afm, nistune, big front mount, bosch 044 intank pump
fuel: Bp 98/United e85
power: 280kw/313kw @ 17psi with a leak in the intake plenum
oil: Penrite racing 10w/40
useage: Street weapon
lifespan: only 3 months so far, has had a hard life.
failure: Walbro 460lph e85 pump failed at 300kw, had to replace with the bosch 044.
comments: Feels good, will be going highmount, twin scroll hopefully soon. Running 21psi now, so should be up close to 340-350kw ish.

There was another issue with your setup if the Walbro 460L stopped, they are nearly bullet proof Ashley, and flow substantially more than the 044's.

Don't bother with the highmount, if you externally gate the turbo the stock manifold will flow 450 odd kw with better response. There is plenty more in your current setup by the looks.

I'm not sure how much mine is making but what about the 21u high flow?

I believe is only rated 30 hp less than op6...will ewg improve?

I can list my mods though if needed

Ps. U mean 450 odd hp and not kw right?

Less back pressure, more power so if you relieve as much back pressure as possible your motor aka air pump will flow more air thus producing more power.

Another reason why going a decent manifold and EWG will make more power however with some added lag OR same can be said about welding a gate on top the housing and ditching the IWG.

Wouldn't high mount be a good thing at that power level, if the tune is averaging EGT's and mixtures then having equal length runners should give a better safer tune for a stock bottom end?

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
