Well I had a quick tune done today, dyno's to be posted up when I can get a colour scanner, in summary

285Kw at all 4, with 19lb boost and 6800 torque.

The good news is

245kw at all 4 with 13lb boost.

I will chat more later!

PS I wanted a very SAFE tune for the track and I was not hunting peak power, so no

B!tching about 285 not being much.

I gotta say that people are getting very skewed in their perspectives if they think that 285awkw is "not being much" :D

That is MORE than enough power for the street and weekend circuit racing :)

Well done Paul :)

Neh, just got them cleaned. Nathan did it for me. Changing an air filter this week and will get an exhaust in the next month or so. And then we'll see what's happenning. After the injector cleaning and timing+idle adjustments it almost feels like carby car - no more throttle lag.

All,

As promised, below are my 3 dyno maps from last week. The boost hit 14lb and then dropped to 13lb. 245Kw at all 4 with 13lb makes for a fun drive. The other line on the graph is the default PFC, it was running lean which was a supprise, but more power with more saftey is the way.

Im crusing at 10psi around the street which is lots of fun.

My final figures at all 4 were as follows.

225Kw with 11spsi dropping to 10psi

245kw with 14psi droping to 13 psi

265kw with 17psi dropping to 16psi

282kw with 20psi dropping to 19psi

I tune was done by CRD cost $650

I asked for a safe road/track tune and I did not care about numbers.

Im crusing at 10psi around the street which is lots of fun.

I think I will grab one of those new pot belly cats and some cam sprokets and hope fully pop the 300 mark

congrats on your results mate!

this is the gt-ss setup right?

1 question:

if im not not mistaken...i remember you originally had the car tuned by UAS, it is now tuned by CRD - why the change?

pls correct me if im wrong :P

regards,

marko.

Marko,

I used to own a white R33 v-spec with GTRS's, its now owned by mik.

I now own a R34 VspecII with GTSS, check out the inital post for the complete kit list.

I used CRD due to Kabab with cheese's recommendations as he had a good outcome with his GTSS's.

My first option was to use UAS, I had my R33 done there them and I was happy but a retune on the same car by Bel yielded heaps more power.

I then wanted to use Bel, but I had a friend with a not so positive outcome and had a re-tune with JEM who said he was the best.

Kabab then highlighted the difference between JEM and CRD.

Im sure if I had UAS re-tune my car they could get more, but opinions about tuner's are like a$$holes, everyone has one. At the end of the day $650 for a CRD tune with dyno included was not offensive and I followed your's and kababs positive outcomes.

Deciding who to employ for tuning after spending $$$ on an engine setup can be stressful & daunting, I know i've been there!

...it is easy to lose trust & confidence in mechanics/tuners especially after being stung a no. of times.

Only "you" would know the difference in performance after Jim's tune @ CRD.:bananaman

Enjoy your car & tune!

Marko.

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
