Hey all,

Got my car dyno tuned today and pushed 146kw at the wheels, nothing spectacular.

My car is an R33 s1 auto.

MODS:

3" HKS exhaust

K&N Air Pod.

Everything else is stock standard.

Seems as tho that the car is running fairly rich, Air/fuel ratio levels are pretty low, peaking at about 10.8. Would this be a result of my air induction system, or lack thereof? or simply the standard ECU? and would the Wolf 3D fix this and give me more power as a result of better AFR?

Future plans.

Wolf 3D ECU

Front Mount Intercooler

Blitz ID3 boost controller

What ya all think?

BOOMAU.

P.S thanks to Mercury Motorsport for fitting me in on such short notice.

BOOMAU , 146 is a goo start :)

My 33 auto made 210rwkw (280rwhp) with full exhaust , fmic , SAFC @ 13.3psi

( ran 13.4 sec @ 106mph 1/4's)

then 240rwkw (320rwhp) with Wolf & hiflow turb,

then 270rwkw (360rwhp) with VP 103 & more timing,

& finally 304rwkw (406rwhp) with a small shot of NOS!

(ran 12.6 sec @ 114mph)

Important note! I totalled 2 engines & 1 gearbox to get these results :Bang:

the stock engine broke the ring lands above 210kw & the gearbox died above 240kw. :Oops:

Out of this I can give you 3 tips : Stock eng / box are great fun at 210rwkw

Wolf 3D v4 is the ONLY ecu that will run nissan autos

& fit a big Auto trans cooler :flamed:

I hope this helps :D

"Go The Auto! "

Cheers

Troy rep.

Great result Troy... Something to be hell proud of... I don't think mine will EVER make that much power or do those times...

Wolf 3D v4 is the ONLY ecu that will run nissan autos

But I don't agree with that statement... All the Wolf 3D's I've installed or played with on auto 33's have not controlled the auto at all... Sure it still shifts, but it makes a damn mess of the shift, and the car is not that nice to drive... I even bridged a "few" wires across to the auto ECU and while this made things slightly better, it wasn't perfect...

I think a PowerFC would do much the same thing... Allow the car to drive and be tuned, but make a mess of the shift logic... Just a theory at this stage though...

Strutto ,

Point taken , I believe the wolf is the only ecu that keeps all of the nissan outputs , which allows you to run the auto , rather than control it.

You could retain the stock ecu & splice in something like an EMS stinger to conrtol fuel & ing

I put a 3300rpm hi stall in my box , so shift quality was altered anyway :D

Ahh OK... Good point - you may well be correct... I'm just running a SAFC2 and SITC combo... Does the trick for me at this stage...

Off topic I know and apologies BOOMAU, but how did you find the launch with the high stall Troy? Did it result in lots of wheelspin? Care to post your 60ft times?

sorry , BOOMAU , no hijack intended :D

Strutto , the stall was too high at 3300 (wouldnt lockup in O/D at 110kmph!.... you had too rev past it & then , once engaged , drop back)

My 60ft times did not improve from 2.2 (13.4 run ) & still 2.2 (12.6 run) , I was getting alot of spin as it squats on the inside edges of the rear wheels :burnout:

My best run was on my street tyres (275/40/17) with no burnout , I will have to work on the 60ft times with my new combo.

good result BOOMAU for a pretty stock car still.

go the front mount and boost controller for sure, but there are many discussions on here as sydney kid said, and, they illustrate why an aftermarket ecu will not run the auto properly.

maybe think about a safc instead, with this and all the mods you should still get good power.

LOL (directed at Col-GTSX)

hehe that is ok guys, don't mind cause it is all information that will help everyone.

Might think twice about the wolf 3D then, just stick to the boost controller and the front mount, and then look at safc then.

Thanks for the help all.

Without an aftermarket ECU or AFC, what would a R33 S2 auto dyno with

- FMIC

- Full exhuast

- Pod

- No change in boost levels

Would it be unwise to run the above components without an aftermarket ECU or AFC? If so, why? Will there be more power gained from a S2 engine compared to an S1?

with a full exhuast boost would rise a bit

but why keep stock boost with those mods, get an ebc or bleed valve, whichever you prefer, and boost it to 10psi and have a stock boost setting as well and bob's your uncle.

should probably get around 175rwkw and series II motors usually get a couple more kw most of the time i have seen even though it is the same motor.

    • For these last 7 years of ownership, I've always had to use a small scissor jack under one of the front tow hooks to raise the front just enough so my low-profile jack fits under to reach my subframe jack point. I'm beginning to get annoyed of always having to do this. Are there any lower low-profile jacks that fit under the gtr lip on a dropped car?
    • Seat of the pants assessment of the new intake: The car is way less "doughy" when hitting the loud pedal, especially off idle when stopped or in traffic, I did use a cheapo lazer thermal thingo to measure the temp around where the pod filter got its air, it was between 55 - 60°C, in saying this the car was shut off and not moving, so the OEM intake pipe was not supplying any fresh air to where the pod was when the car was at least moving A weird bonus was induction noise on the throttle in the cabin increased a bit,  I was worried that I was actually going to lose some of that induction noise I love so much, outside though, when I got the daughter to do a WOT drive by pass for me, the induction noise has increased alot when on the throttle, not quite ITB doort, but well up there I'm extremely happy with the results and have been exploring the country roads in the region  As for house mods: 1.New front fence is up and is awesome, it really upgraded how the joint looks from the street, and the added security is nice 2. Electricians have replace some interior lights, and with more lighting in the garage, a few new motion detecting lights out the front above the garage, front room, and at the front door, which I have already found heaps helpful coming and going, also now has fancy pants CCTV all round the house The only hold point for power though is the solar and batteries due to supply issues, although this will happen over the next few weeks 3. I have done a heap of landscaping out the front and I'm almost ready to do a new small retaining wall with some nice blocks to replace the brick and cemented in rocks around the raised garden beds cemented in river stone "was the fashion at the time" the house was built. I currently have a pallet of retaining wall blocks and 2 bulka bags of 20mm blue metal to replace the wood chip that is in the raised garden beds around the house 4. I now have 3 big raised garden beds for out the back to grow some vegetables, about 70cm high, 200cm long and 100cm wide 5. My 2 compost bins are already pretty full with brown, green and kitchen waste from the landscaping I'vedone so far, but they will probably take a few months to break down, so anything else that gets chopped, trimmed, and kitchen waste will just start filling the base of the raised garden beds to about 30cm before I start throwing 40cm of good compost, and stuff, for the vegetables to grow in, I'll need a few ton of compost and soil, but the local supplier can sent me bulka bags of the stuff Basically the logs, wood chips and a few strategically placed rocks for drainage, will give the beds some good organic materials down low to break down over time, and they will hold moisture during the warmer months to save the water in my big arse water tank if we don't get alot of rain So, all in all, the car and house mods are going well, and I'm really enjoying being retired, I sleep in too 0700 and slowly plod around inside until I feel like actually doing anything, and only work in the yard for as long as want, which has actually been alot over the last few weeks,  although when you look at it, it seems that not a huge amount of work has been done,  until I look at the before I started the work pics Happy days and good times indeed 
    • hahaha yeah. Plan is to get side skirts and probably just rear pods. But going to do them one-by-one. I've got a set that I really like from RHDJapen, but that one isn't shipped to AU. So need to find someone who can get it for me
    • Here's an idea, answer the questions I asked you as they are trying to work out WHY the LSD will be binding up in a straight line.
