Hi guys,

Had my car tuned recently and many people have looked at the chart and think its a high possibility that the capacity has been raised on my RB20. Personally, I think its still a 2 litre but with so many people thinking otherwise I thought I would post it here to get a few more thoughts.

Engine: RB20DET - Red top eccs 12 port.

Mods: (R31 GTSR) Factory front mount, TO3/4E, long runner exhaust manifold ( black hpc ), pod ( no cai ), 3 inch exhaust and stand alone management. 12 psi.

So whats peoples thoughts?

Im voting its a 2.0L

But im thinking your turbo setup makes a bit more power lower down then mine. Im installing a new housing on my turbo this week so will hopefully look a little more like yours when im done, but i think you will find somehting with 2.5L will make a bit more ramping on to boost at 3,500-3,800rpm

Some forgies and 2.2L perhaps:)

Been looking for this thread.:cheers:

I know for a fact that my engine is std, and my figures are as follows:

3,500rpm - 78rwkws your making about 4rwkws more then me:) So im guessing its a std displacement RB20.

What i really want to know is the turbo the std GTS-R turbo? The figures below are from my tune with 17psi. Does anyone know the cam specs of the RB20DET-R, i know they are different, but i have never been able to find out exactly what they are

Approximately my thing is making...

4,000rpm - 150rwkws

4,500rpm - 196rwkws

5,000rpm - 216rwkws

5,500rpm - 232rwkws

6,000rpm - 234rwkws

6,500rpm - 230rwkws

7,000rpm - 218rwkws

Our turbos seem to be very similar in response and performance, but you do it with 5psi less boost:thumbsup:

Could this be as simple as cams?!?!?!

Ahh32...any news:)

There you go Fat GTS-R...excuse my formatting, i only plotted as many points as i needed to get the general trending right :headspin:

I have changed my tune, i reckon you might have a stroker of some sort:thumbsup:

Even if it is only a set of oversized pistons and 2.2L, something is going on...at 3,000rpm im making 5psi and you have 14rwkws more then me....and typically im running 5-6psi more boost pressure for about the same power:confused:

Id say your on a good thing with that engine, time for some more boost, say another 5psi. Based on my engine making another 20rwks with an extra 3psi, then is day you are well on your way to a nice and punchy 250-260rwkw setup:thumbsup:

And having a closer look at your dyno plot at high revs, i suspect that the power drop off came from a lift off the throttle...?

    • Hi from Canada, Both of my calipers are starting to fail. My car is a 2005 M35 Stagea ARX and I can't seem to find any parts or any cross reference caliper that would fit my car. Is there a company or a similar caliper that would fit and I could replace the OEM one. Or if anyone knows where I can find a new OEM. Any help is very appreciated. Let me know!
    • Maf is a question mark but TPS  I have set at 0.47, the fact that I’m getting proper voltage range out of it with the key on leads me to believe it’s functioning properly. I’m getting proper voltages on basically everything. I still need to look up voltage ranges for z32 maf and test that 
    • Honestly no not at all, but it’s a very basic tune, it’s stock injectors q45 tps and z32 maf. Other than that it’s a completely stock base map. The file is from nistune and from my understanding if it was tune related I would be able to unplug maf and tps and it would still start even if it was a really shitty start. I have tried starting it with coolant temp, maf, and tps unplugged none of those 3 togethor or individually changes anything

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day   Highway gets as low as 10l/100km on my end so I'm not as worried about it being a mechanical issue. More likely just the tune on the haltech.
