seriously? I was at the tuner yesterday for 5 hours.. sure it must be a dream loll I just do not brag about my setup on the internet like some of you. I have nothing to prove and couldn't careless if you don't believe me.

but for the people really interesting ( because, yes I actually got 3 pms regarding this) about the -9, yes its possible ot achieve great number.

and here, we do not run E85 ;) we run 94.

Lol, you did brag.

Considering what sean posted, then you should get ahold of some e85, better than that 94 stuff you boys seem to run :P

dont laugh, my mate is making 286kw @ 14.5psi with gt-ss

Yeah on my built motor i made 280rwkw @ 1bar as well

End of the day mate -9s aren't going to flow 380rwkw @ 18psi, that's the simple truth.

If you really "do" have that power, take it to the strip and run near 130mph.

I bet you don't get any better than 124mph :)

True, I also referred back to the dyno comparisons spreadsheet on here and the -9's (GT-SS section) average at 303.1kw at 18.3psi which is exactly what I'm aiming for.

Maybe Cobra was running ridiculous boost? Some guys get around the 330-340kw mark with 22psi....but even that is still 40 odd HP short of 500. Not sure how far the -9's can be cranked but if you can run R33 N1s up to 25-26psi then I'm sure you can do that with the 9's as well....and that might be getting you quite close to say 360kw even though there'd be more heat created than anything else....guess it depends on where the -9's sweet spot is.

There'd always be some people out there who push parts to or past their limits....like Xkalaba and his ceramics :yes:

Already did. Last intervention in this thread.

I'm just trying to help out the folk considering buying the GT-SS and all I get is whining and '' your a liar'' i don't believe you'' . Well, unless you pay the plane to ship my car and me to australia, unfertunately, you will never see me rollin on your drag strip.

Look at some japanese setup, they can achieve 600whp with gt-ss.

Jing R34 GTR

http://blog.nengun.c...26-tuning-world

The Jing R34 GTR has been slightly modified with Tomei and Reimax internals and two low mount HKS GT-SS turbo's. Generating 1.3kg/cm2 of boost and producing 467ps this GTR has been perfectly tuned for the street. Volk Racing CE28N wheels cover Brembo Monoblock brakes and Ohlins DFV suspension.

The concept from Jing was to retain the standard engine and easy maintenance and combine it with improved power, torque and appearance. While mildly modified, this R34 looked great.

at 18psi he managed to make 467hp but he doesnt talk about any cam and cam gear tuning etc etc. just a standard RB26, nothing else. Add bolt-on power adder and he could easily break the 500hp marks.

Okay I'm seriously done here. do your own research, I did 3 years ago, and I'm 100% happy that I went with gt-ss instead of -5 or -7

We're just all very astounded that's all mate. Like Piggaz asked, do you have any examples to load up? Even some video of your own car in action?

Either way, even if hks gtss can make 380 odd kw, a bigger turbo would make that much eaiser and less stress on the internals.

Though do you have hks gtss or -9s. Even though most say its the same dam tubo, There is a comp sheet thats shows otherwise. but thats not the real point here

Edited by sydking

Hoping to have mine at about 25 psi,

Though if its not making much extra power past 20 then theres no real point pushing them in my books

So where are you at with your ride these days Sydking? From memory you were in my boat with too much lag? I've ended up sorting out my actuators and am just waiting to get my diff's sorted and possibly get an EBC of sorts

Did he tune it?

Yes i tuned it. Theres a few bits of info that have not been told with the setup. 2 main factors are built motor and higher comp.

Also all my dyno runs are done in 4th gear. Piggaz had the same question about the end speed with my GTR. I have alot of mechanical sympathy so i dont like to rev the engine to redline on the dyno. Most runs stop around 7000is maybe 7500.

CobrAA said 18psi

If he said 28 psi than I would believe him....maybe

But for now I still maintain mostus dynos (mustang excepted)

Over inflate by approx 100hp to what we see here

Generating 1.3kg/cm2 of boost and producing 467ps

That's 340kw... which is nowhere NEAR 600hp. PS is also measured at the motor.

So 340kw, minus drivetrain losses... It's under 300rwkw (at the wheels).

Do you know how to convert?

I'm just trying to help out the folk considering buying the GT-SS and all I get is whining and '' your a liar'' i don't believe you''

you will never see me rollin on your drag strip.

You don't have your own drag strip?

Doesn't matter where the drag strip is, you'll never run more than 124mph - and if you do run 128-130mph, i'll gladly eat my words that you can make 380rwkw @ 18psi on pump gas.

End of the day a turbo can only flow, what it's compressor wheel will allow in terms of airflow. Simply put, at 18psi you cannot make 380rwkw on pump gas. The turbo's are not flowing enough air to do so on a 2.6ltr motor. It's simple fact mate regardless of what you have printed on a piece of paper.

Ah, I assumed you went to 8000 RPM man. Maybe I missed that bit.

Never assume anything haha

Seems like people in here wanna make 20psi @ 3000rpm and make 350kw at wheels LOL

Not me lol gees...I'm hoping to run around 18 pounds for now and make around 280-300kw. I made about 270kw with my N1s so am hoping to improve on that a bit.

Which reminds me, I should throw them up on here for sale :D

The bloke who owned my built engine before me was running GT-SS's and he reckons it made 355rwkw at something 26-28 pound (can't remember the exact figure). Tuned and built by Creatd in Vic, so dunno if their dyno is happy but it was impressive

    • Good luck on the weekend mate
    • Must have been an absolute nightmare to drive when the power steer was out, the rack ratio/wheel size/caster is all set up for power assistance
    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
    • I wanted to try and preserve the front bumper as long as possible, they're not cheap and are made to order in Japan. Taking inspiration from my previous K11 Micra build where I made an undertray for the Impul bumper, I did the same for this BN Sports bumper but a little slimmed down.  This time round I only made a 'skid plate' (if that's the correct wording/term) for just the bumper surface area, the Micra version covered the gap like an undertray. Starting off with a sheet of mild steel approx. 0.9mm thick 4ft x 2ft in size. I traced around the bumper, cut it out and cleaned the edges. Luckily I was able to get two halves from one piece of metal In the video I installed it as is, but I've since then I've removed it to spray and add a rubber edging trim. The rubber trim is suitable for 1-2mm and it's a really nice tight fit. The bolts had to be loosened due to the plates being too tight against the bumper, the trim wouldn't push on I used some stainless M6 flat headed bolts for a flusher finish (rather than hex heads poking down), I believe this style fastener is used for furniture too incase you struggle to source some. The corner's are a little wider, but this may be an advantage incase I get close to bumping it  The front grill got some attention, finally getting round to repairing it. Upon removal one fixing pulled itself out of the plastic frame, one side is M8 that fixes inside of the frame, where as the other side is M5. Not knowing I could get replacements, I cut down an M8 bolt, threaded it inside the frame along with a decent amount of JB Weld.  The mesh was replaced to match the bumper. One hole on the bonnet/hood had to be drilled out to 8mm to accommodate the new stud, once the glue had set it could be refitted. I think the reason the grill was double meshed was to hide the horn/bonnet latch (which makes sense) but I much prefer it matching the bumper Bumper refitted and it's looking much better IMO The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bVZP35io9MA
