Exactly, Jerry. There is more to it than just max power. I bet you that 33 makes more average power than one with a higher peak power figure.

You are right Charlie high average power is what you want not just peak .

The other thing is if we take it to another well known dyno it will make around 380 kw on all 4 .

Another vote for Ben at Bel's here :rofl:. Like wrxhoon peak power figures aren't the most important thing . My car was originally tuned by one of the above made 268rwkw on a 2wd dyno dynamics after the boys at Bel worked there magic it now makes 275rwkw by 4500rpm's at the same boost ;).

But like said times and trap speed are the real indication and the car managed to better it's previouse time on a 15deg hotter night and with a slipping clutch so thats what counts . Will be out there again hopefully soon and run the car to it's full potential .

Who pays the fine when they get caught speeding on the street doing a road tune?

At least they have one guy driving ( usualy Eric ) while Ben tunes it .

When i was in japan i saw this guy going out on his own with the laptop at 8 o'clock at night to tune this GTR on his own , scary .

ok guys who are where are BEL???

As for SAS....I will never ever go there...my brother can tell you all about the story of his 180sx after it got tuned at SAS.. Jim at CRD had to fix it...

As for Advan...know their GTRs do they???? I don't know about that...my mate had a problem with his 4wd system in his GTR and he took it there...They made him buy over $1000 in parts for nothing...Also gave him a big bill for their "diagnosing" after not being able to fix it. He took it somewhere else who found the problem in half a day..turned out be some be old worn wires....

Anyway I deceided to stick with who I know and got the car tuned at CRD yesterday...

so the car was tuned at CRD did you stay with it and watch what Jim did? did you have a lot of work to have set up like cams? cam gears? PFC? or was it just a retune for something minor?

I personally am going to go to CRD but will need someone that knows GTSS turbos and tomei cams on the GTR....

BEL's road tune is ~ $360-400. Dyno tune can be arranged as well - they have to hire at the moment, though that will change when they move. My previous car with PowerFC was tuned by them, and current car with HKS FCon SZ also tuned by BEL. they are the only ones who will ever touch my ECU :D

more info on the F cov tune plz?

how much?

They tuned my R33 GTR with Power FC, JUN Cam gears, stock airbox, 3inch exhaust and hi-flow turbos. At the moment its got the boost restrictor removed so its running 14psi. It made 225-230kw@4wheels. Jim advised that the turbos aren't in their effeciency range till above 16psi. As a quick test he ran about 17psi through them and the result was 254kw@4wheels. He reckons the car will make alot more and so next time I go there, they'll fit the Apexi Power FC electronic boost controller, 550cc injectors and retune. There will be no charge for the retune...I'm happy at this boost level anyway but it will be interesting to see what he can safely get from it - aiming somewhere between 260-270kw@4wheels.

so the jury is still out? I am sitting on the fence of a BEL or CRD tune.... where do BEL do a dyno tune? and what sort of $$$ are we talking to the combo road + dyno?

I just want someone that knows there crapola and can sort out a car with a lot of new mods...

its going to have

GTSS turbos

greddy pipes

700cc injectors

blitz boost comp

tomei 260 260 poncom cams

RB20 AFMS

so it is going to take a switched on digger to get it all running in sync :D

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
