hay there everyone

does anyone one know the power output in kilowatts at the wheels for a standard 1992 R32 GTS-T

I have one but's only making about 140 kilowatts at the wheels and this is with an exhaust,airfilter, 600hp fuel pump and boost settings at about 14 psi, i was told by someone who dynoed it that it's very good for this type of car,

but I reckcon it's not that great. if i want more power i have to buy a aftermarket computer and a bigger intercooler dont know if it's worth it .

I wouldn't mind a gtr but cant afford it

I thinking of selling but not sure if i could get something as good or with more power

any suguestions would be great

cheers: elbs32

I think with a pump that big, it's going to negate everything else by causing the engine to run RICH AS.

You have to have a big front mount if you want to keep the indiction air cool. That woosy little thing that Mr Nissan stuck in there is not going to keep 14psi air cold enough to produce power.

I got 145 out of my RB20DET, at around 10psi. It could be that the engine can't swallow 14psi, so it's not going to run as well.

An after market ECU is worthwhile, as it allows you to lean off the mixtures, which translates to more power. Rather than a GT-R, you could also upgrade the engine to a RB25DET - mine (RB25DET w/VVT, Wolf 3D 4+) is pumping 180 at 4 wheels, which I guestimate at 210 rwkW, 240+ fwkW. And that's on 10psi and 95 octane crap. That's close to a HSV Commonwhore, but done with 2 less cylinders and 3 less litres (but one more camshaft!)

Food for thought.

Make sure you have a dump pipe, good IC and cold air intake, then get a Toshi remapped ECU and enjoy a nice 160rwkws odd at 13-14psi.

If you want more power, i suggest you consider how much you like your R32, as its cheaper to just buy a faster car...but if your a glutten for punishment like me then you may do the whole aftermarket ECU, injectors, turbo and still be slow:(

larger front mount, power fc and a tune up should get you close to 200rwkw. upgrade ur turbo and youll be pullin maybe 230-240rwkw??

You could achieve your goal bit by bit which makes it more possible if your on a budget.

:P

but remember wen upgrading the turbs you gotta do the fuel system as well

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By brillo · Posted

      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.

      R33 GTST Steering Rack (49001-19U05) Rebuild?

      By Gantai · Posted

      Well the install is officially done. Filled with fluid and bled it today, but didn't get a chance to take it on a test drive. I'll throw some final pics of the lines and whatnot but you can definitely install a DMAX rack in an R33 with pretty minor mods. I think the only other thing I had to do that isn't documented here is grind a bit of the larger banjo fitting to get it to clear since the banjos are grouped much tighter on the DMAX rack. Also the dust boots from a R33 do not fit either fyi, so if you end up doing this install for whatever reason you'll need to grab those too. One caveat with buying the S15 dust boots however is that the clamps are too small to fit on the R33 inner tie rod since they're much thicker so keep the old clamps around. The boots also twist a bit when adjusting toe but it's not a big deal. No issues or leaks so far, steering feels good and it looks like there's a bit more lock now than I had before. Getting an alignment on Saturday so I'll see how it feels then but seems like it'll be good to go

      Leak from Tokico BM50 Brake Master Cylinder

      By SteveL · Posted

      I don't get in here much anymore but I can help you with this.   The hole is a vent (air relief) for the brake proportioning valve, which is built into the master cylinder.    The bad news is that if brake fluid is leaking from that hole then it's getting past the proportioning valve seals.   The really bad news is that no spare parts are available for the proportioning valve either from Nissan or after market.     It's a bit of a PITA getting the proportioning valve out of the master cylinder body anyway but, fortunately, leaks from that area are rare in my experience. BTW, if those are copper (as such) brake lines you should get rid of them.    Bundy (steel) tube is a far better choice (and legal  in Australia - if that's where you are).
