Is my car a freak car?

Had the dyno tune today

With 'just'

- 3" Custom Cat Back Exhaust

- Pod Filter

- Hybrid 600 x 300 x 76 FMIC

- 12psi Boost

- Tweaked ECU

It made 203.5kw at the rear wheels with my 18's, is this figure way too high? Because it is still getting the dump pipe, front pipe and high flow cat put on, but still pings between 4000rpm and 5000rpm and only between there.

Could my car have internals I dont know about?!

dyno wouldn't give a flywheel figure....unless it was one of those chassis ones

i'm guessing that it's just very generous....

internals wouldn't give a higher power figure....unless you had some super high compression pistons, but i'm willing to bet money that that's not the case

also i'm guessing most of us here could get 20-30rwkw extra if our engines were pinging... if its pinging probbaly means it needs detuning a little which might drop you back a few kw, plus dyno may be out etc... as everyone else has said

well, i have 199.6rwkw in a VL with a minispool which is lighter than a skyline, you must have bald tyres because when i plant it rolling in second there aint no sideways action, unless i employ the services of "Mr Gearbox Destroyer"

odds are you could have 203rwkw but... you might be running like 13:1 a/f which isnt good and will be causing the ping. my advice, take it to a place that will let you drive away with a car that doesnt ping, you never know maybe they wouldnt mind doing a rebuild for you?

Dyno figures aren't worth the paper it's printed on, unless it's to compare "before and after" gains on the same car, preferably on the same day.

true, I once saw a stock GTR with 600rwkw.

Some dynos are very generous too....if you want to compare you really need to get it done on a day with others.

And I think everyone else has addressed the pinging problem....remember the "RB" in the engine name stands for "rebuild"

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit?

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!

      I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!

      I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
