i wouldn't mind if you could PM me the details on how the hell uve managed above 200rwkw and still witht he standard internals without damaging them over time.... but i guess its up to the drivers right foot as to whether the car internals get a bashing :)

but yes, can u give me the details and where ic an get my hands on such beautiful things, as im only after roughly 200rwkw... im stock as a rock except for POD [need to get an air partition] and stock everything else... :) but if i can get a rough pricing on what i need to get to 200-240rwkw id be more than happy to take a few days into driving up there, getting him to set it all up and driving back to melbz

240rwkw @13psi seems very hard to beleive. From what i have heard you would need to run around 18psi to get those figures... Not doubting your results just amazed. Tang0 want to take your car out next week monday or tuesday to see how it goes compared to mine? I got 240rwkw and would love to compare.

Afraid I'm starting to doubt as well after my run yesterday. Same setup with richer mixtures as the tune needs a touch up and a manifold at 13psi i got 199.2. I've cleaned up the tune a bit and shes a bit quicker now but not 40kw quicker.

zoom : standard GCG prices, i think it was just under $2k

jay : yep, VERY pleased with the results, and more than happy i dont have to run high boost to get the power !

williamsf1 : i think it was $66 per hour (if my memory serves me) for mechanical labour, then $110 /hr for dyno tune ... 3 - 4 hours i think for a pfc tune .. GTR would be a lot easier to change injectors on as the gtst you have to remove the top half of the plenum ... not fun work ... you'd have to give him a call to see how much he knows about gtrs but i'd be VERY surprised if he didnt know everything there is to know about them ...

croat : yep, very happy, i basically went overkill with the fuel system in a paranoid kind of way, but am more than happy with the results ... and unfortunalty my mother unit arrives from the UK this week, so going to have to spend some time with her, not seen her for 18 months .. anyway, the good results are all down to the tuner knowing his stuff inside out ..

it hard to tell as i had the injectors done at the same time as the tune - yes the car feels VERY different, but thats prolly 90% due to the tune ...

didnt bother installing the fpr in the end, after talking with dave, it seemed that it was not really worth doing for hte kind of power levels i was after .... now its up for sale with the custom made elbow that replaces the existing fpr ...

cheers

Did you happen to have the car dynod on the same dyno before the upgrade? The percentage increase in power is far more telling then a 240rwkw figure.

:mad: good resutls by the way. I wish i made that sort of power at that boost...even if the dyno figure is a bit optimistic, anything around that figure with that sort fo boost is a good effort:)

didnt get a dyno pre tune, to be honest, not really bothered about pre tune power, just that it gives me a HUGE grin now !! :mad:)

the dyno used is aparently a very conservative dyno, its used for race and drag cars so i guess it has to be pretty much on the mark ...

but hey, i'm happy, thats all that counts !

Iwells - absolutly ... i have not seen more then 55% duty yet, and that was pushing it HARD in 3rd to redline ....

Trust - yeah, will get around to some track days .... not REALLY bothered about drag times, just bothered about having LOTS of fun with it ... before a track tho i need to sort of better breaks and harden up the front suspension .... prolly new sway bars as well as bushes ...

never stops does it ...

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
