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...?

    • Drain it. I got official Matic D but you can get whatever is listed as Matic D compatible.
    • Thanks guys,  Yeah I should at least have them dynoed, at least then I know what I've got as a starting point.  The springs on these are hard as rocks. I vaguely remember Russman saying he was going to sell the shocks to me with the rocks fitted, as he was keeping the softer springs for his new setup.  I didn't click at the time but of course that was to let me know the shock/spring wouldn't be matched.  I also remember pricing up new springs around 2014-15, but, house, money etc. it never happened. So that was another reason to have them rebuilt. I have rebuilt the forks on many motorcycles so I think I could handle the seals on these easily enough, but getting the valving right would be a rabbit hole I cbf exploring.  Duncan, interesting to hear RP was tuning these back then. I might give them a call.  In the mean time I have been busy fitting sway bars. The Whiteline rear sway bar I purchased 15 years ago finally got fitted, along with the Whiteline front bar that showed up last week. Just waiting on new links for the front sway bar to finish that off.  And my spare set of advan AVS VS5's should be back from the powder coaters in a Pearl White finish sometime this week, with a set of Hankook RS4's lined up for fitting.  And then I just have all the suspension bushes to do. A comprehensive kit is on the way... Lots to do before the Ararat hill climb. Cheers guys 🍻   
    • Nice car! I’m glad folks in the US have gotten past the FnF and are buying real cool cars like the 260RS I was with a bunch of mates in Portland about a year ago and spotted a green Stagea (just a regular 2.5T AWD) parked about 2 blocks away and they were like “a what?” So I made a bet with them for a round of beers and said “ok one of you run down there and tell me if the steering wheel is on the correct side” 5 mins later the American comes trudging back up the hill and goes “he’s right guys. Ok what beer do you want?”
    • Should replace OR drop the tank, give it's good clean. Might be worth replacing that entire fuel level/pump/cradle thing with this: https://frenchysperformancegarage.com/products/fpg-s13-180sx-r32gtst-single-pump-hanger-kit-billet-hat-6-v3-fpg-089?gQT=2
