what do u think the car will make? and how fast down the 1/4 mile?

and how much boost i should dial

it's got

r33 GTR crank (nitroed strenthened and shot pened)

forged pistons and strenghened conrods

1.2mm tomei gasket

N1 turbos

adjustable camgears

N1 water and oil pump

N1 engine gaskets

bored and honed R33 GTR Vspec block

3" fujitusbo catback

3"nismo cat

stock dumpipes

aftermarket front pipe

power FC

550hp fuel pump

RB20 aifrlow meters

and even thing else is stock

what do u guyz think i should be able to make??

All that work and standard injectors? or did you forget to add them to the list.

Also considering the engine is being built and out of the car, you would be crazy not to change to aftermarket dump pipes considering you can get something like the XForce HKS style stainless copies for around $599 per set. If you choose to do these later you will pay a lot for labour as they are a pain to change with the engine in the car.

Oh and I hope you didnty get charged extra for the "N1 gasket kit"

If the engine is built, tuned and run in properly this time, I would expect in the region of 300kw at the wheels and easy low 12's / potential high 11's at the strip.

danny i agree with blitz ... surely you'd want to upgrade the injectors and dump pipes if you've got all that other work done?

if you get bigger injectors you can actually start to use those N1s !

okay point takeb would 750CC be suffcient????

]']and how much boost i should dial

i would say those turbos and a nitro'ed crank should be good for about 36psi on low boost or 38psi at the strip. should be a 10 second car if you can drive it.

Nah, not kidding mate. I run 36psi on my fully built FJ20 motor and even though I haven’t cracked a 10 yet I’m sure with some practice I will get there. Motor has been reliable up ‘till now too. Thing is people don’t understand that even though the turbo may be introducing more heat into the air at 36psi the extra heat creates special vortices within the plenum that allows the engine to consume the air more efficiently. Once the engine is in this ‘zone’ the exhaust temp goes down and this helps reduce the heat the turbo is making, which is why you can run these turbos at 36psi. it’s not a good idea on a stock motor, but on a built motor like yours with all the good bits and N1 gaskets it should handle it fine. Will be an absolute street monster. I will deffo be going down this road in the GTR soon.

hm...well i think the turbos wouldnt be able to handle the higher boost.

correct me if i am wrong

n1's if they are steel wheeled should be ok at that boost. you will probably need those bigger injectors though. it's just that most people are too soft to run at that boost as they don't understand the vorticies theory. plus a lot of them dont have built motors.

not yet, but you were there weren't you when I first wound the boost up? remember how it was good at 14psi, sh1t at 23psi (thought we'd reached the limit) and then at 36psi it really started to come into it's own. it was farking amazing.

yes injectors 700cc and dump pipes would be a great investment (if you can afford it cams would really bring the combo to life)

DO YOU KNOW WHAT N1 TURBOS YOU HAVE??

ie are they ball bearing ?

And what a/r ratio compressor and turbine

cos unfortunately n1 can refer to a whole range of different turbos, all with very different characteristics and potential.

As for the hp of this combo it will be limited to about 400rwhp (because of the injectors)

At a guess high 11's should be possible down the strip.

With larger injectors ~450rwhp (you'll need cams to get much more than that)

and this is with responsible boost levels (but will largely depend on which turbos you have)

As for 36psi wtf

i think people should stop think about boost levels so much as its only a reading of back pressure in the plenum and has little referrence to actual power. A good motor will not tend to build boost quickly and all that early because it flows well and makes power (not back pressure) boost doesn't = airflow.

which is better a motor run 9psi making 400rwhp or a motor running 36psi making 400rwhp?

Is it expensive to get your rotator splint crogenically treated? That sounds like one impressive mod!

Yes, an engine removal and refit is required. To make the most of it I had my valves cross flowed and bench ported at the same time, and a new thrust spigot fitted to improve response on the street

36psi is about 2.5bar!! wtf!? Your not going to tell me that was on pump fuel as well?  I wait for SK's opinion of these "special vortices". !

yep, 2.45 bar. you have kind of caught me out though, it wasn't pump fuel, but rather a custom concoktion that I rubbed out at home. Gary (SK) should be able to back me up on this as it was him who taught me all I know about high boost vorticies. as for the rotator splint mods, they are more of a dark art than a science and are perhaps a topic for another day.

    • To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules
    • So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket
    • 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.
