For people who are wanting 200rwkw out of their "stockish" RB25DET heres something to consider. The dyno graphs below represent my car on 2 different dynos.

The first one was done December 03 on a 20degC day and made 153rwkw. Mods were:

* bleed valve @ 13psi

* Chipped stock R33 ECU

* Turbo back zorst (with crppy compliance cat)

* K&N panel filter

The sencond one was done June 04 on a 10 deg day and made 195rwkw.

For a bit of fun, lets see if you can tell me where the extra 42rwkw came from :)

come on dude, tell us.

I am on my way, just waiting for the tune now. The Powerfc on factory maps = 200km out of a tank.

I have -

Split Dump all the wat to the Cat

Hi Flow Cat

3"5 Exhaust, 4 inch Cannon

Front Mount Intercooler (stock plenum and BOV)

Partitioned Pod Filter

HKS Exhaust cam Pulley (not fitted yet)

Apexi Power FC + Hand Controller

Bleed Valve set at 10psi

18" 235 Treads

10% Mix of Toluene

Stock Turbo

Currently on about 150rwkw

Aiming for 200 - 210rwkw after the Tune. Apparently its very possible.

ones a dyno dynamics.. the other is the dynologics.. and lets guess that the dynodynamics might be in shootout mode correct? and maybe has some temp correction thrown in for good measure..

do i get some candy?

good pratical illustration though rigga :thumbsup:

That’s why people who trying and argue, that their car is faster because it puts out more power on a dyno. Is a load of bull. I have seen similar cases of a car on one dyno putting out 320hp and on a different dyno putting out 360hp. With nothing changed to the car.

If people say that their car is quicker because it puts out more power then mine I laugh. The argument stop on the ROAD!! You could have a car that does 700hp between 7 – 8k rpm and a 300hp car with a power range of 4 – 7k rpm I reckon the 300hp car would beat it over a ¼ mile. But the guy with the 700hp car can still claim that he’s is quicker because his car puts out 400hp more……. ???? Am I right in saying that ?

In other wirds RiggaP has shown a good example of that, Cheers Mate.

Gordy, Quite easy really:D Shootout mode dyno provide a list of details at the bottom of the screen, which records intake temps, ambient temps etc. Shootout mode 2003 has green writing down the bottom, but this is no longer current. Shootout mode 2004 has blue writing and has an '04 logo. These dyno can no longer be manipulated to provide higher readings.

Shootout mode dyno provide a list of details at the bottom of the screen, which records intake temps, ambient temps, yada, yada, yada

yup, I sort of know that :thumbsup: - but I was thinking maybe rigga had photoshopped these details out to make it another interesting point of discussion.. which it is already :)

I have noticed this over time the extra details on each printout. As part of their dyno "subscription" (purchase/rental/lease?) are the dyno operators required to get the new software with each update.. or is it optional?

Take it to a Shootout dyno to get consistant results.

Common, you know that's not true, I can get perfectly consistent results running a DD not in Shootout Mode. After all, I can set the parameters exactly the same as Shootout mode, the only difference is that they are locked and displayed. That does not mean that they are not set correctly. I believe that the Shootineers Code of Conduct is far more important to consistency than a piece of software.

Sorry, that might sound a bit harsh, but I am getting a bit tired of DD shoving Shootot mode down everybody's neck as if it's the be all and end all of dyno's. :thumbsup:

The cat.

Correct. This was the only mod done between dyno runs.

ones a dyno dynamics.. the other is the dynologics..

Also correct, and forms the very reason.

So heres my point; Dynos are a tuning tool. Anyone chasing a dyno figure is missing the point IMO. As my example has pointed out, you could achieve 150rwkw at one place then have another place "retune" the car and achieve 195 without effectively doing anything. I'm not sure anyone with half a twit is going to argue you can get 42rwkw by adding a high flow cat.

A dyno figure is not going to give you any idea how fast the car is going to be, and because of this, dont mean squat.

    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
    • Hi, SteveL Thank you very much for your reply, you seem to be the only person on the net who has come up with a definitive answer for which I am grateful. The "Leak" was more by way of wet bubbles when the pedal was depressed hard by a buddy while trying to gey a decent pedal when bleeding the system having fitted the rebuilt BM50 back in the car, which now makes perfect sense. A bit of a shame having just rebuilt my BM50, I did not touch the proportioning valve side of things, the BM50 was leaking from the primary piston seal and fluid was running down the the Brake booster hence the need to rebuild, I had never noticed any fluid leaking from that hole previously it only started when I refitted it to the car. The brake lines in the photo are "Kunifer" which is a Copper/Nickel alloy brake pipe, but are only the ones I use to bench bleed Master cylinders, they are perfectly legal to use on vehicles here in the UK, however the lines on the car are PVF coated steel. Thanks again for clearing this up for me, a purchase of a new BMC appears to be on the cards, I have been looking at various options in case my BM50 was not repairable and have looked at the HFM BM57 which I understand is manufactured in Australia.
