Thats still one hell of a figure though - 395AWKW subtract 25 = 370 AWKW on roller dyno - Ide be suprised if GTSS (on pump fuel) made that type of power.

We dynoed the car with Singapore's pumped V-power. 100RON as told by the tuner. Btw that power is obtained by almost maxing out 680cc injectors. Of course it's not gonna run on that boost everyday with the stock rods. :wassup:

We have roller dynos here but they all give different results. I was told by the dyno operator that various factors can affect the results of roller dynos such as how tight the car is strapped down and even the alignment figures. How true was it I don't know. Perhaps someone can explain.

did anyone take notice of MrNismo's engine specs?

The cengine is running with the following specs:

- 264 IN/EX cams 10mm lift

- P&P head

- 87mm Forged Pistons

- Standard rods & crank

- F-Con V Pro

note that he has oversized pistons (larger engine capacity), higher duration/lift cams and a modified head which would've contributed greatly to this great power result.

given this, obviously the GT-SS would not make the same power on a standard spec RB26.

Also, as mentioned above, the fuel used was 100RON which allows for more enhanced tuning again over what we have availabel with 98RON (if that) fuels.

Also, fyi has anyone looked at the official HKS website for the power/torque results of an RB26 with GT-SS'?

if you look at the web link below, you will see that they managed to extract 422kw (565bhp) @ 7070rpm and 629Nm of torque @ 5150rpm whilst pushing the turbos to 1.4 kg/cm^2 (~20psi).

these are great results and the power curve looks mighty fat, i am not too sure as to what this would equate to at the rear wheels or all 4 wheels.

oh another thing, please note the mods listed below;

* IN & EX cams - 264 degrees (lift ???)

* HKS F-con V Pro

* HKS Racing Suction intake system

* HKS exhsut, muffler, extensions & front pipe

and in addition;

* 2628cc engine capacity

have a nice day :)

Ok I am dragging this back from the dead!!!

As some of you might know, I have a set of these GT-SS turbos going on the car (today!!!) with the following combo....

rebuilt stock engine

tomei poncom cams 260 260 9.15

greddy split dumps

700cc injectors

RB20 AFMS

apexi FC

blitz SBC spec R

and the usual other bits to go along with it all....

is anyone else running these of late? and if so what sort of boost levels are we talking?

I will post some full specs and dyno reports once it is all done!

does anyone else have any dyno sheets with similar mods?

cheers...

We have already posted up our results of 367AWKW on croydon racing developments dyno dynamics dyno in the motorsport section in the post of 11.7sec with GT-ss turbo's.

These are great turbo's and they make good power.

We make 332awkw with out quiet trust exhaust.

and 367awkw with our straight through 4''.

That is extremely elementary physics and flow dynamics, and I'm sure everyone realises that boost is just a measure of engine resistance to airflow.

start a poll and see how many people really understand even elementary physics and flow dynamics! I did physics at uni years ago, but bugger if i can remember it now!

I like Sk's explanations, and i think its good to get things explained in a back-to-basics way, especially when there is so much misconception about boost, power and efficiency floating around.

Usually the first question people ask me on the street about my car is "How much boost is it running!!?" I think that sums up the main misconception about turbo systems!!!

a bit off track, but i dont want SK to get discouraged!

What spec turbine / compressor and housings do these use , I searched HKS but could not find them

Cheers  A .

which site did u go to dude?

i usually go to either of these below for all HKS references;

http://www.hksusa.com

or

      Quieter performance exhausts (or muffler add-on options)

      By f00stx · Posted

      So, I've had my V36 for about a month now and have already copped an "excessive exhaust noise" notification from QLD TMR, reported by someone in my local area. It's a twin as per the original, and can have a bit of a throaty note to it when idling cold 😄 and if I do get up it a bit, it can be noisy, but it did pass a roadworthy inspection before sale, so.... ... but in the interest of being a good neighbour, I do want to quieten it down a bit. Is anyone here running a quiet aftermarket cat-back on their V36 or 370Z? And the big, bold question: does an aftermarket cat-back really make much of a performance difference on these cars?

      The wiring diagram for the R33 RB25 is freely available, and is essentially the same same as most other RBs (just with differences as to which pin # does which job). To get the ECU to power up, you just need to provide power to the ECCS relay, and have the other power feeds that come in from the top left of the wiring diagram (wrt the ECU) that give perma power to the fuel pump relay, the ECU itself, etc etc, all connected. When you put power on all these it will just come to life. It's pretty clear from the diagram what needs to happen. Just follow the lines from the 12V + supply stuff in the top left over towards the ECU. I've even posted snips of such diagrams (not for vanilla 25, I think for Neo and 26) to various threads here in the last few months, talking about what it takes to get the fuel pump and FPCM up and going. Search these up and they will help get you started on doing the same with the vanilla 25 diagram. Hell, for all I know, I've done the same with that one in years past and have forgotten.

      Yep...so unless someone posts up the answer you will need to probe from the ECU connector to the dash plug with a multi meter in continuity mode to trace the wires.  Note the ECU has multiple - and + (and across different key settings - Battery, IGN and Start) and most likely the power is fed from the connector(s) that is normally near the left hand headlight.

      Thanks Duncan, I am actually just trying to get the Rb turning and running with the RB25DET S2 original loom itself  I am just trying to get it going outside the body and not thinking about the S15 or trying to match anything to the S15 loom at all I am only trying to see if anyone has done this and what pin they found to be the ignition trigger and ECU+/- on the dash connector, that's about it. Thanks

      M35 VQ25DET starter motor

      By iain_ST44GA · Posted

      Hi Guys, Does anyone know any aftermarket part numbers for a starter motor to suit the VQ25DET? I can find lots of alternative part number for the VQ35DE, which I assume would fit, but there is a lot of conflicting information out there. Thanks..
