Hey guys,

Well, we dynoed my RB26DETT 240SX today...

The first time we dynoed at factory boost settings, which on my boost guage was 9 PSI...

We made 320 rwhp or 239 kw, I believe this is about average for stock ecu, stock motor, etc...

Our importer thinks the motor had cams, but we aren't sure... It does have a lope to it, and if I was a betting man, I would think there is...

Maybe you guys can took a look at my dyno chart and give me an idea of what you think...

On the second pull, we upped the boost to 15 PSI, or 1 bar...The car pulled timing and started knocking...

I'm not sure if it was the fact we only had 93 octane gas in the tank, or whether the timing might be advanced too much...

The first graph is of the stock pull at 9 PSI... The second graph shoes all three pulls, with the last two being at 15 PSI...

Thanks!

Chris

Do you guys think the car has cams based on this dyno?

I was really impressed for having a totally stock motor, stock ecu, etc...

The only mods were downpipe and exhaust...

Boost controller turned to 15 PSI for the last two runs...major knocking...and not sure why...

I think you will find that the US rate their fuels differently to us in OZ, so 93 isnt equiv to OZ 93RON, actually i cant recall the unit they use but its not RON.

I take it when you say stock motor, you arent including exhaust, filter, intercooler etc With exhaust, good IC and filters and 1 bar of boost id say that would be pretty typical rwkws for an RB26.

Yeah, for 9 PSI, it's very impressive.. The sound is so loud of those turbos...

The guys that were there were commenting on how nice it sounded..

You would have really thought it was two HKS turbos with all the noise...Very loud for stock...

But, what do you guys think about the whole cam situation? Do you think it has them?

Also, why do you think we were getting knocking on the 15 PSI run?

We think that the timing may have been advanced by whatever Japanese person last had the motor... We assumed it was stock and never messed with it...

But after the knocking tonight, and the the fact that it looks advanced, we are going to check it...

Tomorrow we will be adding 118 octane race fuel and giving a 15 PSI pull...

Just from the graph she looks pretty much stock, there are other stock rb26 pulling higher figures in oz.

Also i believe and knows dynojet dyno give a higher reading than our dyno dynamic ones.

Don't let the low number dicourage u, there are ppls on here with huge hp from a stock motor with some bolt on stuff,

A cam motor has a sharper rise ihp section dependant where it comes on and alot of time when u get a motor, you usually get the aftermaket turbo free before the cams.

Aftermarket cam gear is another giveaway.

    • The German place in Cabramatta was rock solid, fresh pretzel cooked to order back then. Then it went all quiet, after all the poker machines were removed, then I believe it closed for good. I did drive past the other week and noticed outdoor lighting a big screen, but no idea what is there now.  
    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋 
    • Does that German restaurant still exist in the old place out the NW end of Goulburn? When I say "out the NW end of"...I am really being vague. It was 1997 when I was last there, and the only point of reference I can recall is that it was on the opposite side of the main drag from the big merino. And when I say "opposite side of the main drag", I don't mean "on the main drag". It was either a couple of streets back from there, or might have even been out in the sticks a bit further. Was an old farm building or mill or somesuch. And when I say "the big merino" I might actually be thinking of a completely different part of town, because I just looked on maps and the big bugger is not where I remembered him to be! The food was good, consisting largely of various German mystery-meat sausage/loaf things and kartofflen.
    • So while the second sentence is completely correct and the whole point of the conversation, the first sentence bears consideration. If this bloke is just hoping to throw big turbos on and drive it around, because there are no helpful facilities at all in his tropical paradise** then he likely has zero chance of even knowing what the TP is on the last column in the stock maps, let alone know whether the ECU is operating anywhere near it or past it. So the point is very very moot. And, per what I said before, at stock boost on those turbos, you may well be off the end of the map. **I'm just back from Vanuatu, so I know exactly what small Pacific nations can be like wrt paradise without requisite facilities. But it's not even that simple. I put a high flow on my car and had to drive it around without a proper tune because of the lack of opportunity*** to put the bigger AFM and injectors into it to allow it to be tuned. I had to turn the boost down to less than I had before, and back off the boost controller's ramp, because it was exploring parts of the map that it didn't drive in before, and really couldn't access for tuning on the dyno either, and so was pinging. It was still well within the last column, because when I first**** set up the Nistune on the Neo I rescaled all axes of the maps to give some more space to explore. ***Family dyno was broken ****This was 13 years ago, and the TIM thing wasn't a thing then and so TP would definitely grow when pushing past the stock tune's limits.
