R33 GTR

Racepace cam gears, but not yet adjusted

Garrett -9's with 1 bar actuators

Nismo fuel pump (rewired)

Mine's front pipe

Soon to be added: PFC, ID1000, Z32 AFM, E85

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

No stress, with that colour, it'd blend right in traffic anyway!

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.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
