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"

    • As long as its NOT a HyperSHITtune, youll be fine.
    • First time visitor and currently getting ready to start work on my HK Premier.  Its all stock, 186 with 3 on the tree.  The only mod i have right now is extractors.  I am hoping to get some guidance on slightly modifying the engine to bring a little more power. Just going for a nice, comfortable cruiser.  The car is very straight, however i have been out of the country for 20 years and its been gathering dust at a family farm.  Will be doing quite a bit of body work to cut out some small rust areas (frnt quarter panels and a few other small bits) and fix up the paint.  Will be redoing the interior (its currently black and the seats are in real need of recovering and respringing the driver side (its front bench seat).  The dash needs a little TLC, but no real damage.  As my heater has degraded I am considering fitting something after-market that will be both heater/AC (recommendations here are always welcome). Wanting something discrete that will allow me to use the same controls and not be obvious once inside the car.   For the engine, i have been told i could consider upgrading my cam (imagine i would need a new head as well) and putting a new carby (currently the original stromberg).  However not sure what is going to be the best route.  Would certainly welcome any comments/suggestions.  As  a final step I am looking at changing the wheels. Current hubcaps are in dire need of refurbishment or replacement (imagine its a bit like hens teeth).  Thinking of some clean/classic looking mags (7-inch should be more than enough - not going for a large change in look).  Welcome any comments/advice and of course any questions. 
    • I got the ARC M079 due to the space constraint.  Been running mint for the last 3 years.  Plazmaman also seems like a really solid choice but not used myself.    Hunt around for a better price but this is what I have - https://www.rhdjapan.com/arc-brazing-intercooler-smic-m079-bnr32.html
    • Wanted to follow up on this. Did you end up getting the M073? Still deciding on what to get between nismo m073-79 and plazaman.  
    • I was just watching these boys up in QLD AWD'ing their S13 too.
