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.

    • (it is a brand new ported mellings pump) I suspect the lack of pressure is due to the leak. It was *not* that low in other logs of oil pressure in the past. It wasn't that hot either, but not far off.
    • Would a Mellings oil pump be a viable option  From my time with a LS, and talking to tuners and LS specialists, the "weak" OEM oil pump is one of the first things they recommend to swap out if I was going to give the engine any high RPM I opted for a Mellings high volume, with the high pressure springs and I never had a issue with it Cost wise they are not expensive in the scheme of things 
    • Just bought a 2002 Stagea 250tRS VR-X Four AERO VQ25DET and spent the last two weekends cleaning and detailing it.. still have to do the wheels and the engine bay but the rest of it came up nice. Imported 2011 to S.A. and I'm the third owner since it was imported. I met the guy who brought it over, he went to Japan and picked out the car, bought it and ordered the wheels. He also gave me a list of stuff he did to the car with receipts. Coil overs (I have the original springs), 3" exhaust from the dump pipe back no cat, Custom dump pipe,(I have the original exhaust), Plenum spacer, 18" custom Work XSA wheels (need restoring, I've made a start..), Shift kit put through the 5 speed tiptronic auto, TV and menus/screens changed to english, Australian DTV tuner installed in rear. I've just had four new discs and new pads as well as all the fluids including the brake fluid replaced. I have all the receipts for the last 15 years and the import papers in a nice folder. Car looks great, goes like hell but fuel economy is not a thing lol.. pics next..
    • I ended up in this rut again lol, and used a shit ton of filler. One thing I can't understand is, even after using a big long block and going in long X pattern strokes, I always end up at bare metal again with no filler, and my repair started at one end of the door and now I've chased my tail to almost the other end of the door. I was thinking of hitting the panel with a hammer where it might be a high spot and making everything low then filling it, I did this on a small section on my other door by mistake and I think I fixed it lol. Is this a bad idea? The other thing is with guidecoat, whether it's the powder or spray, after I sand all the guide coat off, it doesn't reveal anything for me in terms of high spots and low spots and makes it especially hard when it's bare metal (at least in powdered form), am I doing something wrong here, or likely a high spot I keep going over and creating valleys? Lastly, stupid question but, is it possible that after sanding if I only sand over the filler area where I know to be a dent that it's impossible for me to dig into that dent? Unless there are other problems which I missed.
