Unless the "worked" engine has had it rev range increased it won't be any quicker than the cars gearing (diff & g/box) allows.

Increased power only gets you there faster. Gearing will get you a higher top speed!

I've managed a touch over 6300 in 5th back when I had 215rwkw. 6300 in 5th is ~245-250ish. So I agree a stock GTS25t would be lucky to push past 230-240 before it'd run out of puff or drag would stop the fun.

Pah... i got up to 190 in my stock standard R31 on "my private test track" and i'd say there was another 20-30km/h in it. Consider that is 120kw and an r33 gts-t has around 180kw standard, you should get more than 230km/hr.

Course with the stupid speedos on the skylines (whose dumb idea in japan was it to go up to only 180km/hr ??)... its always hard to tell.

Sure you can get to 180-190-200km/h etc.. but as speed goes up so to does drag. It's a LOT harder to hit 230-240km/h & takes plenty of power & a very good CD to push past these speeds. Plus add speedo error into the equation & you'll find your 190km/h in your R31 was probably closer to 175-180km/h.

I'd say for a box on wheels, an R31 would have massive drag!

Yeah, who knows about speedo error but generally i think mine was on target because i did a test once on the hume on that measure speed points and it was bang on at 110km/hr like the speedo was saying.

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
