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"

    • 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.
