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

    • Car has been running great, I've put about 300km's of break in time on it. First thing that stands out with properly sealing rings is no more noticeable crankcase smell coming out of my catch can. This may seem insignificant, but the constant smell while driving around was infuriating. It's also nice to see my oil level remain stable. Two new issues have developed that I only noticed this weekend though. There's a very noticeable driveline vibration past 100kmh. I only noticed it now as I've been babying it under 100kmh in the backroads. This comes as no surprise as I'm running a one-piece shaft, and I paid zero attention to my driveshaft angle when I put everything back in. I also have a fair bit of voltage drop on hot starts. The starter audibly is forcing. No issues on cold start though. I must not have removed all the paint under my main block ground during assembly. I'll try and take care of both those issues this week once the kids are asleep.  I also received all the parts I was missing for my direct port setup. I will hopefully have pictures of that up soon. I'm hoping to get back on the dyno the week of June 30th as I'll be on vacation. I'm confident I should be able to make north of 500rwkw on pump gas and WMI. I'll go back again later this summer with E98, but I want to confirm my ethanol content sensor is working properly first. I've never seen it read anything but 11%. This makes sense for our 10% ethanol content pump gas here, but I would expect the occasional movement between fill ups. 
    • 75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.
    • Trailer prep is underway... Lined up the wheel to get a rough indication of how it would sit Then removed all the bits (as far as possible) and gave the frame a light sand and quick lick of paint   Then added some carpet
    • okay, so I figured this out, removed needles and reinstalled after swapping the gauge face on my triple gauge for my ER34, all work and look good. I tried to do the same for the main cluster, but the main cluster gauge faces are dished, the replacement gauge face are flat, so due to the dish in the org face ,mounting backing plate (clear) and depth of the needle, the flat gauge face will not work. I notice that R34 gtr gauges are flat, appears to be different clear backing plate that aren't dished. are these available, or what have others done to install flat gauge faces?
    • Cheers mate. Seems some people get lucky others don't. It looks like the motor was detonating (to be expected if it was overboosting I suppose) as the pistons had a lot of detonation damage, and the bearings were stuffed. The bores were very scoured too, not sure if that's from the pistons or bits of ceramic turbo. By the by now. Have been trying to avoid the rabbit hole too much on the rebuild, and there's been a few hurdles along the way, but with any luck I'll have the car back soon™. Might even pop up a thread then.
