yeh looking forward to getting 200+ with no major mods

there isnt a whole lot left in the R33 turbo im afraid if your on the 14/15psi mark now with it.

1-2psi more and i think thats where the power increase will stop (if it isnt there already)... and where the wheel spitting will occur :P

Id say this is true. Last time i was on a dyno i tried 1 bar = 183rwkw and 1.1 bar = 185rwkw

Ok, just posting a brief update on my car.

Took it out for the cars and also my first quarter mile action at Heathcote.

Really really bad axle tramp and wheelspin. The car was shaking so hard the boost gauge rattled off the dash! LOL. Couldnt do better than 2.5 60 footers. My initial plan was to crack 13s and 110mph. But just missed out on both. Ran 14.2/3 every run and 108-109mph.

Popped my drag cherry and will attack calder asap.

Ah yes R&D on a RB20 to make big power is good. makes you use ur brain than just opening your wallet. will make the end result (if all works out lol) more rewarding.

When is this thing goign to be finished. If someone can get decent numbers out of an RB20 then i may bother sinkign a couple of hundered a month into my spare RB20, though i dont see my TD06-20G ever cracking 270-280rwkws no matter what head/cams mods i run:blink:

lol yes ROY this build has been going on for a while, but ive turned a car i used in a wedding into a drift machine and that takes money. so stay tuned. i was going to do the engine first but decided to start at the rear and work forward. once i start on the engine it will only take a few weeks and it will be back in and making some numbers. I can pretty much promise you it will crack 300rwkw. its just a matter of having the spare time and money.

Close to the 200rwkw mark. Got a tune the other day and got 255 rwhp @ 1bar. Was hoping for more like 290ish but will have to wait for new fuel pump to go in! hopefully next weekend.

Has HKS 2530

32 gtr cooler

550? injectors

z32

lumpyrom retune/remap

Had magor ping before tune and had troubles getting it to the stage where it wouldnt. Was told fuel pump should cure this so am putting in bosch 023. What sort of boost are others with a 2530 running? I was thinking of going to 1.1 bar but would like to see 300rwhp.

r32 rb20det (late model) swapped into USA s14 chassis

RIPS intake mani

tomei 260/8.8 cams

greddy cam gears (currently zeroed out)

gt30r turbo with .63ar turbine

550 supra injectors

fmic 24x3.5x6

hks exh mani and gate

retuned ecu for injectors and z32 maf with tweaked timing map

from the looks of it the lag is proly caused by the lean condition on spool up, once i get my biki rom from bad biki life should be much better.

    • Also, I logged some data from the ECU for each session (mostly oil pressures and various temps, but also speed, revs etc, can't believe I forgot accelerator position). The Ecutek data loads nicely to datazap, I got good data from sessions 2, 3 and 4: https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-2?log=0&data=7 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-3?log=0&data=6 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-4?log=0&data=6 Each session is cut into 3 files but loaded together, you can change between them in the top left. As the test sessions are mostly about the car, not me, I basically start by checking the oil pressure (good, or at least consistent all day). These have an electrically controlled oil pump which targets 25psi(!) at low load and 50 at high. I'm running a much thicker oil than recommended by nissan (they said 0w20, I'm running 10w40) so its a little higher. The main thing is that it doesn't drop too far, eg in the long left hand fish hook, or under brakes so I know I'm not getting oil surge. Good start. Then Oil and Coolant temp, plus intercooler and intake temps, like this: Keeping in mind ambient was about 5o at session 2, I'd say the oil temp is good. The coolant temp as OK but a big worry for hot days (it was getting to 110 back in Feb when it was 35o) so I need to keep addressing that. The water to air intercooler is working totally backwards where we get 5o air in the intake, squish/warm it in the turbos (unknown temp) then run it through the intercoolers which are say 65o max in this case, then the result is 20o air into the engine......the day was too atypical to draw a conclusion on that I think, in the united states of freedom they do a lot of upsizing the intercooler and heat exchanger cores to get those temps down but they were OK this time. The other interesting (but not concerning) part for me was the turbo speed vs boost graph: I circled an example from the main straight. With the tune boost peaks at around 18psi but it deliberately drops to about 14psi at redline because the turbos are tiny - they choke at high revs and just create more heat than power if you run them hard all the way. But you can also see the turbo speed at the same time; it raises from about 180,000rpm to 210,000rpm which the boost falls....imagine the turbine speed if they held 18psi to redline. The wastegates are electrically controlled so there is a heap of logic about boost target, actual boost, delta etc etc but it all seems to work well
    • hahah when youtube subscribers are faster than my updates here. Yes some vid from the day is up, here:  Note that as with all track day videos it is boring watching after the bloopers at the start.  The off was a genuine surprise to me, I've literally done a thousand laps around the place and I've never had instability there; basically it rolled into oversteer, slipped, gripped and spat me out. On the way off I mowed down one of the instructor's cones and it sat there all day looking at me with accusing cone eyes as I drove past. 1:13:20 was my fastest lap, and it was in the second session, 3rd lap.  It (or me!) got slower throughout the day as it got hotter.      
    • It sounds like you want what the Toyota Landcruisers have for their roof racks. Wanna know what you end up with? Rust holes in the roof, and water everywhere...
    • Discovered today that if I select reverse first and take my foot off the brake, then select drive, the drive indicator light works and so does the tiptronic gear indicator. 
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Does anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
