LOL it was a DR30 and in car film . Its on the video "The Great race , the Turbolent years Bathurst 1986 - 1992" . Great driving for basically an overgrown Datsun 1600 with a top endy FJ20ET .

It was interesting to watch the R31's race , they appeared to be driven on the rev limit everywhere .

show me graphs of an rb20 and an sr20 with the same turbo, this will be a good comparison... not based on whether 6 cylinders is better then 4, but rather a direct engine to engine comparison

i think i can answer this one

2 180sx's....one has a 1992 SR20DET redtop with a HKS2530 @ 1.2bar, 600x300x80mm FMIC, 3" exhuast, apexi intake, power FC, HKS 550cc injectors, walbro 550HP pump, OS giken twinplate Clutch - on a very convservitive dyno (at a dyno day) it made 191.8rwkw. stock cams/internals

the other 180sx, has a 1992 RB20DET, with a HKS2530 @1.1bar(same turbo), 600x300x80mm FMIC (same IC), 3" exhuast (same), K&N intake, GTR fuel pump, stock injectors but a FPR (fuel pressure regulator) and a SAFC tuned with the stock computer. it made (at the same dyno day, a few mins after the other 180sx) 192.0rwkw. stock cams/internals

virtually identical power - the torque curves were interesting.....the SR20 was higher untill 4000rpm where the RB took over.....so the SR has the lower end...but it fell away from 6000rpm...where the RB stayed strong to 8000rpm. i worked out the "approx" area under the graphs....the RB had it by about 10% more...due to the wider power band.

now...when racing....from a standing start....the SR wins untill mid-end of 2nd gear, where the RB pulls on it....then by the time 4th comes...its pulled 1.5-2 lengths - its a similar situation when racing supra's...RB takes over in 2nd and continues to pull away...on a rolling start its RB all the way...from 110kph in 3rd gear (4500rpm in the RB , PERFECT from launching from) it nails the SR

the top end of the RB helps here......

i guess u should come to ur own conclusions about these "results" :(

i'll have some results for this thread next week.

rb20det stock internals

HKS gt2530

cam gears

gtr pump

3 inch -> 3 1/2 inch exhaust

ARC fmic

nismo fpr

gtr 444cc injectors....about to be installed

splitfire coil packs

power fc .....about to be installed

Blitz ebc (running .9bar)

hoping for some good response and about 190rwkw

hopefully next week to be taken to jim at CRD to put the finishing touches on it. I'll keep you guys posted on how it goes.

also id like to add

the 2 cars are VERY similar in handling!!!

the RB seems to have made little to no difference

Roy : the RB20 180sx is going into the shop on monday :), injectors, wolf 3d management, tune @ 1.3bar

glad to here that some one else realizes that they handle just fine with the rb20 up front.

over here stateside there is a stigma about the rb series being "massively" heavier thus making your handling crap.

i had no problems with my car, and it was tons of fun to drive, especialy sideways.

My R31 GTSR was returned to me on Monday.

Mods are: GTR injectors, walbro pump, custom fuel rail and all new lines. Exhaust, pod and ecu.

The rest is standard, remembering GTSR had a TO3/4E from factory.

I also removed all the butterflies and the spindle from the sandwich plate between head and inlet manifold.

Results were 225rwkw @ 13psi and 170rwkw @ 6-7psi.

correct - dyno runs are only good for comparison if 2 cars are run beside each other

the 2 cars that i compared have both made over 220rwkw on different dynos

i just used the 190rwkw runs as example as thats what they both made a few mins apart on a the same dyno.

Regarding the 220 on another dyno...exactly. There is another thread at the moment stating a certain power level...and from the experiences of a friend his car made 20rwkws more then what his car typically makes...so comparing power figures from different dynos is a waste of time.

A lot of ppl claim massive wheelspin probs at 200rwkws in an R32 GTST, so with 222rwkws and no wheelspin at all in 2nd let alone 3rd, i question my power figure:(

    • I was using the wiring diagram I have So 12.74V is coming into the rear Fuel Pump relay as I measured.  When I turn the key to ON im getting 0.6V to the Fuel Pump plug; which i assume is backfeed voltage and doesnt include the 12V from ignition power.  The rear relay is working and being triggered.  From the diagram I clearly see the rear relay 80 = Rear Relay going into the Body/H loom (R-27) 27 = Fuel Pump plug going into the Body/H loom (T-20) 40 = Short Connector (R-27) I'm reading 12.74V on the blue/black wire which is the power for the Fuel Pump   From this diagram I can see the Ignition relay goes into the front and up to the ignition  2 = Fuel Pump Relay <1M> (R-27) 37 = ING Relay <1M> I started from the pump using this reference Which the way I read it (referencing Nissan wiring color codes) is: Pin Wire Color Function 1 B/P (Black/Pink) Ground 2 L/W (Blue/White)        ECU Trigger 3 SB (Sky Blue) Fuel Pump 5 L/B (Blue/Black) 12V Constant Tested SB to SB on Fuel Pump for continuity - confirmed Tested negative on Fuel Pump to 12V battery and L/B - confirmed 12V Pulled the relay putting 12V between Pin 1 & 2 and testing continuity on Pin 3 & 4 - confirmed relay   So that has me looking at this part of the circuit to understand whats happening here...and im still confused. From best I can tell; the disconnect is back to my previous diagram; between Ignition Relay and Fuel Pump Relay...which yet again; afaik is where the immobiliser should.    Thats what I was trying to explain to GTSboy; im not trying to fix it myself; yet I seem to have to get a Masters in Electrical Engineering (while im busy doing my actual job of DevOps & Cloud Engineering) somehow.  I just wanted more expert opinions; or more so that what I tested is correct and proves it to something around that area; to go back to the alarm tech (for a 3rd time) that he needs to fix it. He keeps telling me its not the alarm. He lives on the complete other side of the city so i understand not wanting to make a trip but as I said before if its the alarm it should be up to him to fix it. But he's adament its not; even though I pointed out the FP was immobilised through the original alarm. To my mind; it seems that the ECU is sending the signal; but the ignition is not getting 12V down the line.       
    • Maybe also really stiffly sprung track cars. Get the inside wheel up in a corner and all the fun stops. Also me sometimes (rarely) when I have to stand on the brake to convince the diff to drive the wheel that is still on the ground when I'm trying to diagonally get over severe driveway entrance, etc.
    • I feel like I'm missing something. You had an authorised installer come out and install a new alarm. Post install the car doesn't start, and you aren't getting the installer back to fix what they did wrong?
    • So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you  
    • I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'
