Ok so my r32 is been getting tuned for the last 3 weeks now got a cool to day same it only made 130kw something do add up here.

It got haltech Ecu 440cc injectors gt25/30 full 3- 3 1/2 exhaust fmic spitfire coil pack big fuel pump fuel reg.

something don't add up that was 15psi.

Any one else had a shit tune done

My r32 has been getting tuned for the last 3 weeks. I got a call today saying it only made 130kw. Something doesn't add up here.

It has got a haltech Ecu, 440cc injectors, gt25/30, full 3- 3 1/2 exhaust, flick, spitfire coil packs, big fuel pump fuel reg. Etc.

Something thing doesn't add up. That was 15psi.

Has anyone else had a shit tune done?

^^ lol thanks for the english translation Ben :)

I'm sure in the history of skylines people have had a shit tune done before. But the motor may have other issues. What was the motor taking in terms of ignition timing at peak torque? post the dyno sheet as well.

What did the tuner say? Is he experienced with Haltechs? Yes, 130rwkw is even less than a stock skyline makes. Something's wrong, if the tuner couldn't point a finger at something find another tuner. He should have given you feedback on why he thinks it's so low.

That's funny because my r32 is been getting tuned for the last 3 weeks now got a cool to day same it only made 130kw something do add up here.

so I rang him yesterday and he told me that it is restricted some were and it's not cooling right. And then tell me he had tuned the boost up to 24 psi to see what it had I was lucky the head gasket didn't pop. So now all I now high boost is 18 psi at 180 something kw which is still pretty shit numbers for 18 psi I think. He then sends me a pic of the fuel leaking out of were then sender goes in he didn't want to fix it. For $20 o ring and 5mis and a pic of the exhaust manifold glow hot

I don't think he know what he is doing on rb and haltech

And then tell me he had tuned the boost up to 24 psi to see what it had

15psi has a restriction AND not cooling right so lets try almost double the boost... pointless. diminishing returns. risking motor damage. what a genius.

find a haltech/RB expert.

trolling

not necessary :down:

He said the exhaust manifold was restricting it and that its get red hot and that's all he told me bout cooling.

There is no cat just straight throw to muff that's it. I don't see how to would change all I did was put new motor in that's it. was running fine when I took it there just a bit on the lean side

it's not the exhaust manifold. RB20 and RB25 exhaust manifolds are identical, and on RB25s they flow 300rwkw without any problems. So it's absolutely impossible that it's causing a problem at 130rwkw!

If it's glowing red hot then it points to the timing being too retarded. retarded timing explains both the low power and the hot exhaust manifold.

question is why is it retarded, either it is knock limited or there is a restriction somewhere although it sounds like it's not the exhaust. if it was running lean then richening it up should have been the first thing he did.

silly question but you are running 98RON fuel right?

I had a mate with a 180sx that suddenly lost power. You could also rev it and have flames come out the exhaust just by pumping the throttle at about 2500rpm. It turned out that the exhaust cam was snapped (but still holding together, just twisted a bit) and so the ignition timing was out relative to the cam.

I'd check the cam timing, as well as making sure the cam sensor is working.

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
