R31Nismoid claims 280rwkw on 18psi @ Racepace dyno with his stock ecu.

To be honest I was expecting much less though - around 250rwkw.

I would not be surprised if it were to read lower on a dyno dynamics roller dyno.

Point of my dyno check was to ensure AFR is safe, timing is accurate and no knocking - all of which were achieved.

Also I'm very glad to report that there is very minimal boost drop from the Garrett 1 bar actuators with only a small amount of preload wound in.

Reaches a maximum of 17psi at 4,000rpm and does not drop below 16psi all the way till redline.

When it gets tuned, I will get the cam gears dialed in and reattach the boost controller to keep the gates shut for as long as possible.

Looking forward to some good improvements in the response department.

I'm not a doubter because I have no clue about these things but I just haven't seen it before so I was amazed.

Keep up the good work though and as long as the AFR's are sweet and you're happy then that's all that matters

Nah, I'm talking about Grant, cos I know he had his old 33 gtr tuned by Trent and got a little over 300kw on the same dyno with similar mods and he had PFC.

To settle any doubts, I think it seems like quite a normal figure. Although peak power is quite similar, you can see where the gains are with the car properly tuned.

50Nm difference in peak torque. Reaches almost exactly the same spot (Approx 4200rpm)

80kw vs 95kw @ 3000rpm

190kw vs 210kw @ 4000rpm

220kw vs 265kw @ 5000rpm

260kw vs 300kw @ 6000rpm

If Grant doesn't mind I'm happy to post his graph or he can so people have something to compare with.

Or it can be found in the RB26 dyno results thread anyway

Unregistered Dark Blue 34 GTT on way to Vicroads - don't worry, it's registered now.

Congrats! Didn't spot you sorry, maybe I was too busy focusing on make do GPS and rushing to get to Trent's cos was running late

Fatz, he's talking about my first 33r with GT-SS's not the last one.

Michael, post them up, btw I didn't doubt you. Just found it interesting that you achieved with standard ecu.

Probably says about your motor being healthy - I was told mine had low compression in cyl 2, didn't know of it until I enquired about buying motor/box back. No idea how long the cyl 2 were down for, never done a compression test on cars I buy :/

Grant, nothing unhealthy with that figure at all. As you can see, by 5000rpm you're up by a massive 45kw.

Don't think you mentioned cam gears either in that recipe. Obviously some more gains to be had in the mid range.

That along with E85 would have been pretty damn quick setup. Also you didn't have fuel pump, injectors or afms upgraded which would have been the limiting factor to push any further.

    • Took a little trip  went to nismo hoping the get my fuel tank hoses and unfortunately they told me they didn’t have stock luckily I was able to go to a Nissan parts store and they were able to order them in for me  then can home and cleaned the tank with some degreaser and fitted the new hoses before putting it back in the car 
    • 100% I’ll hack into the 33. Strap a turbo onto the RB25DE and/or put the 25 head on a 30 block. 33 passed in cos the reserve was too high. I’ll try lowballing it again and negotiate. Aim is to have it landed and on the road for under 15k, then spend the same amount on top in mods.
    • It's generally best practise to run 1x run without VCT enabled, then 1x run enabled till redline. Overlay the two torque graphs and you'll find the desired RPM to turn off VCT. Sometimes, it might be even worthwhile turning off VCT earlier control torque/cylinder pressure and using VCT purely to spool the turbo.
    • They sell them in Malaysia for about $4
    • First time I ever have issues with Amazon, but my wife often tells me to keep an eye out for fakes. It finally got me. I wrapped up the conversation with Gates. The gentlemen I was talking to seemed to hate his job but the response time on their technical support is outstanding. He stated that the hose is marked with some variation of "SAE J30R10" but that if you only purchase a 1 foot length like I did, it is possible to get a cut between markings and have a blank hose. To no ones surprise, he stated the swelling and "gummyness" isn't normal and to replace/buy from somewhere else (He mentioned NAPA). I'll toss a small end of the new one in gas for a few days before pulling the hanger out again, just to be safe.  Hose should arrive Monday. For those running multiple pump in tank hangers, you know the joys of getting them out and back in. I'm surprised I haven't destroyed my level float yet.  Lastly once I wrap all of this up, I'm planning on hitting the dyno again in 2 weeks while I'm on vacation. I realized recently that my VCT is set to turn off at 5000RPM. I'm surprised it wasn't increased while I was on the dyno last. I'm expecting I can increase it to ~6500RPM, if not more. Should hopefully get another 15-20kw out of it. I also want him to revisit my knock thresholds. I'm occasionally getting false knock around 3000rpm.
