considering adam Q has power fc, big mofo turbo etc etc etc and macka has PHAT turbo also with many other things on both cars, they're making around the 300rwhp, and adam 32 made around 270rwhp with a t04e...I'm skeptical about it

and like gradenko pointed out more than a gtr...someones been fiddling

Gtr read outs will be lower cause its taken at all 4 wheels.

I'm not too sure if thats how it was done at speedworks though.

But I know that at auto saloon, they had a fairly worked GTR 33 on the formaz dyno and it only read 250hp, thats 10 more than what mine read on the same dyno. No way were we that equal.

PSIKO, I wouldn't compare AdamQ's and mackas/adam32s figures with rob77s casue they were all on different dynos. If the figures of the others cars at the dyno day fitted in, I'd put it down to another high reading dyno. But the thing is, all the other cars have reasonable readings (I think), but robs doesn't fit in with them. The title on the bar graph that says "Compensated Power"... reads like compensated for drivetrain loss to me.

Hicks, true enough about 4wd/2wd, but checkout the figure for the other R33 25t that was there.

Not trying to beat you down here rob, just want to help you get a reasonable figure. :D

Bugger. Meracat should be in the 2001cc - 3060cc class then , not 3401cc - 4500cc. So really, they goofed. */me points fingers and passes the blame* :D

The classes, btw, look like they are worked out based on [cc of engine] for N/A and [cc] x 1.5, if forced inducted.

As per my list below, thats all my mods. As per the power output of the GTR vs my GTS25t, I have less drivetrain loss because I'm rwd he's 4wd. Yes you cant compare other dyno readings with mine as they are completely different dyno's. They arnt even the same. The dynapak dyno has the wheels removed and the dyno attached to the wheel hub, the car spins this and it works out the PS figure. As per what grandenko said the class's are worked out on forced induction times 1.5. But as it stands my car on this dyno has 273.5PS @ wheels, might I suggest some or one of you dyno'ing your car @ speedworks as well as to see what happens. Just a note... they found my intercooler, it went to the US instead of here. I wont be going to the drags until its fitted because my intake temps on 0.8bar are too high. The car sounded very rough towards the end of the 2 runs and I think it may have pinged slightly. But once I go I am confident I will run into the 13's, as rev210 has done. He ran twice at 14.3, then dropped his tyre psi to 20 and ran a 13.8 (on lower boost too, due to a hose slipping off).

Hmmm....

It does sound odd.

Here are last years results.

I still beleive these are fairly accurate because I know that PSI are very careful with the compensation factors. Those there may well remember the small presentation we got on it.

Now we have

rev210 aka Dave 188RWHP - pulls 13. 8

Me aka Nexus_Six 218RWHP- -pulls 14.1

Brett aka Evil r33 166RWHP (BUT THEN GOT PFC) pulls 14.5

Chris aka R34 188RWHP Pulled about 14.2? (correct me if needed Chris...)

Mike aka Micko 218RWHP pulled about 13.8? (Good ole Buffy)

Troy aka Skyzerr33 170rwhp pulled 14.01

Now there is a pattern forming here.

Most this cars at this time were mainly standard. Most had exhausts and filters and thats about it.

P:S any others put em forward..

This points to 1 of 2 things.. either 1 dyno is really out... of if Rob77 truely has 270+ HP surely it should be 12-low 13's?

Wiat up waitup!!

This seems correct...

This is "corrected power" not rated power.

Perfect conditions and also counteracts other things that may affect a proper hp reading.

I saw a reading from United Fuel injection not long ago and it had this on the dyno sheet..

Rear wheel horsepower

Corrected Rear wheel horsepower

Engine horsepower..

I didnt check but u might find the other cars have inflated figures too yeah?

Terminal speed is a better indicator for HP...

Rob in all reality, it would be nice to think that our cars are better than they are. Some dynos tell people what they want to hear. As Destroy said "Terminal speed is a better indicator for HP...".

You have run a 1/4 mile, take your terminal speed, get your car wieghed in the same trim as at the strip (with you in it) and this is the only way you will get a truely accurate HP.

To suggest that your car can get 273PS at the treads - when compared to what most people use, ie dyno dynamics is either wishful thinking, or you should be writing letters to nissan 'cos your car is a freak.

You have to get min FMIC, extra boost and management to even think about getting that sort of HP down. And you would know if you were, 'cos your clutch would smoke like a mofo - if its stock, which you should also know

Not meaning to have a go, just no point trying to compare apples to oranges.

Steve

At the end of the day this is what my car has run on a dynapak dyno thats all i'm saying. My clutch is not stock, its a 9 puck metal sprung clutch with a 2500 pound pressure plate. And as i've said before comparing dyno figures to other dyno figures is pointless, unless done on the same dyno and same day its not worth it. Whether my car *really* has 273.5PS @ wheels or not, according to the dynapak dyno it has. I'm sure if I went to a dyno dynamics and rolled the car up i'd get a different figure. You cant compare a dynapak to a dyno dynamics as they use a completely different method. As i've said before as well a dyno is better used to find how much more HP is netted from a modification. I didnt start this thread out to be "my car has more HP than everyone else" i just stated what figure the dynapak dyno read.

    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
