Just after some general opinions on how much power the following set up SHOULD make on my R33 GTR.

The set up is:

Currently fitted:

N1 block (with N1 turbos and oil cooler)

3" cat-back

Apexi Pod Filter

Boost controller

Installing:

Front pipe

Power FC

700cc injectors

Fuel Pump

Z32 AFMs

Cam Gears

I'm aiming for 300-350awkw anything more is a bonus.

Ive seen meshmesh and a few others with a similar set up but running 2530s achieve the power figures i want, just wondering how weak a link the N1 turbos will be in achieving the above figure.

Thanks

I would add a couple of things to your list;

1. hi flow cat

2. tuning (for power), tuning (for response), tuning (for reliability)

Plus I wouldn't be running a bare POD, it really needs a heat shield and a big ambient air feed. You may find it a better overall packege with a mild camshaft upgrade, ie; 264 @ 9.5 mm.

Hope that helps :P

Mine's similar to yours (current and installing columns) except mine has: std injectors, std block and group A turbos. clutch is single plate

283rwkw @ 20psi, 260awkw @ 20psi on a different dyno and tuned for response.

N1's i believe are 0.42 comp and 0.48 exh (basically std tarbins) but steel wheeled and maybe different wheel trim?

Group A's are 0.60 comp and 0.64 exh steel wheeled and different wheel trim?

correct me if i'm wrong.

hope that helps.

r34 n1's are .60 and .64

Best I've seen is 280RWKW's using R33 N1's. Power only limited by turbos, not engine capability.

Keep in mind this was measured on a Queensland Dyno Dynamics Dyno, ramp rate of 80, no atmo correction, 4th gear.

Was for a circuit prepped GTR 32, but managed to run 11.6 @ 123 qtr mile.

Are Queensland Kw's bigger than Mexican Kw's? :wassup:

OK I just have to jump in here, I have seen the engine dyno sheets for an RB26 equiped with a pair of Group A turbos that made 471 kw at 1.9 bar. That's with a standard R32 V SPec intercooler as well. The car it went into was red, some bloke called Richards drove it. Oh btw it had 9.3 to 1 compression ratio as well. :cheers:

Just 'cause SOME people can't do it, doesn't mean EVERYONE can't do it. :thankyou:

PS

Everyone knows Perth Kw's are bigger! :confused:

lol Sk. Yeah i remember that red gtr. I also remember it constantly suffering from turbo problems with that 471kw@flywheel tune b4 they were restricted.

Are you sure it had a standard intercooler?

While I only had a quick look at it the GT-R that Lindsay Fox has had a bizarre top entry weirdo intercooler. But the curator at the Fox museum also told me that the car weighed 1,000kg, I was like errr ok guy. Anyway... He should know but I have a lot of trouble believing that the car is 1,000kg

Ooops, that's the air inlet to the turbos, not the outlet from the turbos to the intercooler. :wassup:

I would have thought, based on other guys running N1's with a similar set up, that 280rwKw was about there limit? I have to admit though, they weren't from perth, so I would imagine adding another 100-150kw at the wheels easy peasy :jk:

Also with all standard other parts!!! hehehe

I think we should call it the perth triangle.

I would have thought a person who prides himself on being so knowledgable on the science of tuning would know that KW is a scientific measure of energy that is NOT a relative concept (like e=mc2) but a constant one. When measured using the same measuring tool - in this case a dyno dynamics dynamometer - the results will be congruent if the atmo and other correction figures are correctly entered, which they are here (at least by SST).

If in perth feel free to come let me know, one ride in any car dynoed on SST's dyno will immediately verify thier figures. Out of interest SK what would you predict a fully loaded (non weight reduced) R33 GTR putting out 285 rwkw ON YOUR DYNO would do the quater in given that my R33 ran 11.9 (average run) and registered 285 on SST's ??? I would have guessed about 11.9

OR

If anyone is asserting WA people are fiddling with dyno figures why dont they have the balls to come out and just say that.

Shoot you guys are sensitive, it was a joke :jk:

Let me say it here, you can repeat it all you like, tell everyone! Tell the whole world if you like. I am not a good tuner, there are plenty better than me. Shoot I personally know a 100. I make no claims on my own ability, I am far (very far) from being Australia's #1. I don't own a retail workshop or do any retail work, I have no need to beat my chest or claim anything. I am so slow with the spanners that the guys laugh at me. :wassup:

I go to race meetings all over Australia, 30 or so per year, drag combat, nationals, dyno shootouts etc etc. I have a stopwatch (or 2), I can use them OK and I can tell a fast car from a slow car. The measurement of FAST is distance over time, notice no mention of hp (or kw's) in that equation.

So guys, get that chip off your shoulder, take a joke for what it is. :)

PS; just in case you think I have gone soft, what's with the

"WA" the Australian Import capital
it is my understanding that Qld is well past WA. So that makes you guys #4, but since Canbraaaaaa is the "capital" and far from #1, maybe it's OK.

Oooops I better hoist the :jk: flag just in case.

    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2  
    • Thank you so much for the help
    • Yes it is ATF. I quote @Duncan "it takes a good synthentic auto trans fluid like Castrol Transmax Z" It's not a diff. It's a transfer case. Totally different thing. Yes, fluid will come out the sender hole. No you do not really need to drain it. Just pull the old, quickly poke the new, clean up and top up. But realistically, you should probably take the opportunity to change it anyway.
