If you do the exhaust I first discribed with 1bar of boost ( 3 psi over stock, which is what you get if you pull the restrictor out ) and a good tune you should be around the 240-250rwkw range, so a gain of close to 100rwkw, if you are going to go that way do cam gears also, I have a few different settings for the cam gears on stock cams depending on what kind of power delivery your after

On 1 bar on a stock motor my 32 make 261rwkw

Doing the dump pipes on any GTR is a turbos off job, big job, and I would recommend at that point you install -9s while its apart with 600-1000cc injectors and make getting it tuned worth while

Have you pulled the restrictor yet ?

Yeah restrictor is off the car.

Haha now your geting too technical for me im only just learning haha... Ill just start off with a turbo back system and go on from there. Im not looking for big hp just a little more oomf! :D ill be happy with 20kw let alone 100! Haha thats sick.

How much gains (kw) did you achieve from your exhaust system?

Yes from full stock, IF, you do full exhaust with tune and cam gears and 1 bar boost

My car had 140rwkw @ 12psi ( stock boost ) when I first brought it and I now have 261rwkw @ 15psi and 293rwkw @ 19psi

Power mods on my car are

CES factory dump pipes and front pipe

MetalCat metallic cat convertor

HKS catback

I have pod filter with Z32 AFMs, but the stock box is fine at these levels

Cam gears

Boost controller

Apexi Power FC

I still have the stock ceramic turbos and untouched manifolds

Yeah 11.13 @ 123mph, I've had my 32 since 2002 and have done a few hundred passes plus a few hundred laps of various circuits, so I have learnt how to get the best out of that car

160rwkw for a stocker is very good, front pipes, cat and cat back plus a good tune should see you over 220, the dump pipes are a big job to change ( took me 10hrs go change turbos ) and best done when the motor is out or while changing turbos, I spun a big end at Wakefield and put the dumps on while changing the motor

Doing the dump pipes on any GTR is a turbos off job

I can replace the rear dump on my 32 with the turbo in place pretty easily now :D. Haven't touched the front turbo yet (thank Rajab for that).

You're making impressive numbers though. There's still hope for the ceramics!

I would NEVER push that much through stock ceramic turbos..... they will go pop

19 PSI through stock R32 Ceramics? FK that. I would run 15 PSI max. Recommend 14 psi to keep it "Safe". Even then they still go. I spat mine out my cat runing 8 PSI. Ticking time bomb.

Coming on 12 years now, I wear one set out ( bearings ) and am on the second set that have been in the car since 2008

I figured it was how you drive more then anything so I pick my moments and never hold them there long, ie no burnouts or trackdays on 19psi just drags and dyno runs

    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.
