hi

i've got a bit of a 'dip' happening between 4000-5000rpm in the power curve.. seen here:

www.googz.comtempgug25t-161.jpg

i know a few posts have been made like this in the past but i thought id post mine anyway as the graph might give more away... i have a stock skyline (automatic converted to manual by hills motorsport).. it was running ~8.5psi boost but other than that is completely stock car.

would a s-afc fix the dip in the power curve ? i know something like powerfc would do nicely but i was hoping to avoid that cost if possible..... im looking for something to smoothen it out .. rather then peak figure...

thanks in advance for your input :D

Hi, i was also at the Dyno runs on Saturday - great day.

I had the Red Series I R33 GTS-T - 192kw@12psi

I don't know anything about these things but if i was you i'd be getting a nice air filter and a cat-back exhaust system.

An S-AFC would definitely smooth it out, however the Power FC is still preferable if you have the money.

But if you're a poor bastard like me, an S-AFC is good enough to tide you over until you can afford the Power FC. Here's a printout of my dyno run before and after the S-AFC tune. I had a similar flat spot at around 4000-6000rpm and it's now gone.

interesting :D

what mods have you got there ?

Fmic, T04 turbo, EBC, cold air box with pod, 3.5" exhaust from front pipe back. The dump pipe is the next thing on the list to do, was going to do it in a couple of weeks but can't afford it till next year now :D

both!!:D

And thats in a R33 with a t04

I was going to reply too, but with a little less tact :D

My dyno looked very similar to tyours unti I installed a PFC - then what a difference. Before i could feel it drop off under acceleration, but now it pulls strong all the way. I think this dip is programmed into the original ECU to help it meet emission standards.

I would suggest installing a PFC,or at the least a S-AFC.

I am not disapointed in the PFC and the potential to go further in the future is always there, whilst the S-AFC is a good fix but if you want to continue further eventially you are gonig to have to change the ECU anyway.

does anyone have a definitely answer to this problem .. i know i have this problem as i can feel it .. and my car is an auto .. 3rd is really shit ... can feel the loss in power ... with so much pepole having this "problem" it does seem that it is programmed in factory ...

googz, one more thing i could recommend is possibly hi-flowing the turbo...I've got a T03/T04 hybrid turbo which has been hi-flowed by the previous owner :P, n I've made 270bhp at 15psi after installing an S-AFC...with no fmic. Once i get one on, my tuner expects 300+ bhp, and for me to do a 12.5 run at willowbank...the bastard!

anyway, the S-AFC gave me 66 more hp, so i would say get that first, then an fmic, then see what u can do to hi-flow ur turbo...if u're looking for crazy horsepower and a clean torque curve of course. :)

    • I can ship Nismo floor mats to you: https://www.oemsoko.co.jp/products/nismo-floor-mats-for-skyline-r33-bcnr33-stagea-wgnc34?_pos=1&_sid=9278c1467&_ss=r  
    • Here's the link: https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/epc/nissan-japan/stagea/wgnc34/6642/misc/G49?frame_no=WGNC34-137122 What you think about it? The same product i found on nengun: https://www.nengun.com/oem/parts/40567/MiPwn5qAMfCfmpxHNDnwn5q9MDAx8J-QiW9sZC1qcC0xMTAtRzQ5LS0wMDE/Floor+Carpet+%2F+Mat+2/0688339eba149c19 Bot i have spoken to 😅 ensured me, that mats are 100% original, oem product. I have my doubts. I also heard what you mentioned, that nengun often offers items that are actual not available... On the other hand mats i found on japanese yahoo or ebay are in poor condition and still quite expensive so i'd rather wait for some better offers. My location - Poland. We literaly don't have ANY market for used Stagea parts so need to search outside Europe.
    • You can’t see much on the other side as the lcd is there I don’t think it’s the same as the m33 beside it as the markings on top is not the same was hoping someone had a good quality photo or if they just happened to have the unit in hand, quickly take the cover off and take a photo to clearly show the marking on top to identify the diode   the unit is currently with an electronics repair shop so I can’t take another photo at the moment hopefully they are smart enough to know if it’s a zener diode or not
    • I'd be very surprised if you can buy new OEM mats. But if you can, I want some too!  Do you have links to the variations you found? Also, where are you located? I found that Nengun is happy to list items to purchase but when you do buy them you'll get an email that it's actually discontinued. As far as I know the variations in floor mats are different colour schemes as well as automatic and manual having a slightly different shape. The automatic ones fit into a manual car without issues, but I think you'd have trouble fitting the other way around. I have photos that show the shape difference if you care. FWIW I bought sets of used floor mats in decent condition at yahoo auctions.
    • Hi 🙋‍♂️. Just bought my Unicorn but the interior need some minor work so it would match my expectations ;). I noticed it is hard to get used oem floor mats in good condition so i started to dig if there's any chance to buy set of new ones. I found two websites - nengun and amayama and it looks like one can still buy factory new floor mats in Japan, but thers a small issue. Some mats (i assume genuine, oem ones) are marked as G4900 and these are "discontinued". The ones you can buy are marked as G4911 but i have no idea if these are also oem, made by other producer or some lower quality replacements that looks entirely different. Can anyone help? 😃  P.s. there is also some strange indication - 0V005, 0V015 and 0V505. Any idea what does it mean? Would appreciate any help with this 🙏
