Wanted to fine tune my ride a bit further before MAS coming up soon, throwing it on the dyno there for a bit of fun. Further from my mods already I put a s/s Hiflow 3" cat in and it made a huge difference. Was thinking about going with some octain booster and a few other little tricks......but decided against it, thought id just be proud of whatever i could get off pump fuel (synergy8000).

The tuning went far beyond what I had hope for!!!! initially after the last tune i had 224kW @ the rears.....so i was thinking, hopefully low 230's?? but low an behold.......my beast pumped out 248kW @ the rears!!!! i was STOKED to say the least :(

probably also worth mentioning that this set up is still a little on the rich side at top end (which I prefer to be safe) and still on STANDARD INJECTORS :headspin:

anyway, only few people really understood my excitement, so i thought I'd come on here an share my good news!! Fingers crossed that the dyno @ MAS reads a little higher than most (which I'm told they usually do) an I can get a hold of a 250kW+ dyno sheet :wassup:

theres a pic attatched of the dyno sheet. RED line= power BLUE=torque

the lower lines are from a few tunes ago, i think stock turbo @ full boost before i replaced it (round 18psi)

nice number.

but sorry to say that from that graph that doesn't look driveable at all.

at 100mk/h (I guess in 4th gear on an R33 is about what 3500rpm?) you have about 95-100rwkw

then at 120km/h you have about 220rwkw.. how the hell do you control that?

having said that, if you went from 224rwkw to 248rwkw from changing the cat, you gotta be happy with that.

that graph just looks REALLY peaky..

What gear is that in? Third or Fourth?

220 in 4th gear? my r33 dyno run was done in 4th and only just got over 170 at about 7000rpm.

I could work it out exactly, but fourth gear in an R33 GTST is around 28 kph per thousand engine rpm. So 7,000 X 28 = 196 kph. :cheers:

TURBO: Hi-flow i got exchange through Daltons Automotive

PEAKY: havent really compared it to any other graphs, so not sure.....as far as drivability though, power delivery is very smooth, an yes, rapid, starts spooling up round the 3500-4000 rpm mark. Not much bottom end really, which I'm hoping to rectify somehow in future.

keep in mind that this is on a dyno....ie: no load, no resistance, no weight to push.....so its a bit more progressive on the road

GEAR: in 4th

an cuts off at 160kph.....not much point in graphing much further after peak is there? an the peak was @ 6100rpm

the small dip in the power curve can be fixed by some head/manifold/inlet flowing an polishing etc..

is there a certain way the graph should look? open to any comments or ideas...i'm all for making it even better :cheers:

well there should be load and resistance on the dyno. that's when they load it up once you're in 4th gear...

Of course it will be different to road type load but still, it just seems to deliver the most power from like 100 - 120km's where it jumps like 120rwkw..

it's just that I can't see how this could be put to the ground through rwd only..

then from 120km/h to 160km/h it increases by 20rwkw only.

is this normal?

it just doesn't seem like it would be a smooth power delivery at all.

almost like an ON/OFF switch

Thats mad abcent.. I'd be hell stoked too. By The Way.. what boost u running? A full list of your mods would be nice coz thats some sweet rear wheel Kw right there :D

I'm getting my car dyno tuned right now actually. They rang me up b4 and they said they have 215 rwkw on 12psi so far, pick up my car this arvo with full dyno sheets and hopefully a bit more power :(. Just need fuel cut defender before we jump up the boost... wondering how much boost the stock r33 gtst injectors can do? We're hoping around 16 - 17psi.

Thanks for the posative reply Geno8r

list of mods

Blitz s/s mesh pod

HKS fmic

hi-flow turbo (sourced exchange through Daltons Automotive) running 18psi

HKS dump, Blitz s/s 3" front pipe, s/s hi-flow 3" CAT, Kakimoto Racing 3" cat back

Stock engine, stock head, stock manifold, STOCK INJECTORS

Malpassi Adjustable fuel regulator (rising rate, black version)

Biggest (cant remember number) Bosch in tank fuel pump that'd fit

Microtech LT-12 ECU

GTST - have your dyno graph that I could compare with? just to see what you mean by "smooth power delivery"?

This is my everyday car, its smooth an streetable to me........I love it, cant wait to wind more out of it :P Its hardly a "wheel spin uncontrolably in the dry" car, It accelerates extremely fast and as smooth as i'd expect a turbo car running 18pound boost to be.

so I dunno, bout the same as it was with stock turbo & fuel system felt, just more power.

duty cycle is about 100% at peak power.

Thakns for the heads up, saving up as we speak for bigger injectors, but we all know the cost of R33 side fed injectors....., they HAD to be different to everything else...didnt they!

know of any cheap sets somewhere by any chance?

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
