I think my car is down on power compared to others I have heard about with simliar setups.

Current mods;

Nismo fuel pump

555cc Nismo Injectors

HKS GT2835 Pro S turbo (420ps)

Tomei 270 Degree cams

Full 3" exhaust.

Greddy Plenum

HKS front mount

HKS Fcon V pro ECU (Map sensor type)

So far the best power i have managed to produce is 320rwhp on 1.3 bar. To me it seems kind of average, cause i've heard of other people making 380-400 rwhp, on this turbo. The tune in my ecu was done in Japan and its fairly rich around low 11:1 afr but would this be making that much difference? How much HP should i be making? I'm changing over to a Power FC D-Jetro, just so i can get someone to tune it here in australia in hope to gain more, but what power levels should i expect, or am i expecting too much from this turbo?

I recently bought a GTR from Japan with an Impul tuned EPROM in it. The barstards glue the EPROM to the board so you cant read it - however this didn't stop me and I was able to pull the PROM and read the data. I really wasn't that impressed with there tune - very conservative all round, fuel was too rich in top end 11-10.5 and timing was very shy through power. Knock parameters where standard (not that it matters in the topend).

Could be a blocked cat as well or some kind of inlet restriciton. My advice would be to check the cat/restrictions and then either get the ECU re-tuned or PFC.

250rwkw sounds pretty good check the rb25det turbo upgrade dyno thread, i think theres at least one other 2535 turbo. your at about the max of the 2535 turbo as far as i can recall going from the ps rating. i dont see how the powerfc d-jetro will give you more power. it will be easier to tune with the normal powerfc and a z32

Hey ookami, i also have the 2835 and managed 333rwhp on 15 pounds (tiny bit over 1 bar) without PowerFC. Something has to be holding you back...

you made 333hp with a stock ecu? you sure? My car is junk then!! I've got a greddy plenum and bigger cams and everything too!! Is yours the 2835 pro s with the weird Exhaust flange?

How did you manage to get the epoxy resin of the eprom? I also tried to pull one of a board, but my fingers aren't as strong as your.

some people must have weird dyno readings or something. I don't understand how they make more power on less boost. I know i would gain some power with a decent tune, but some people are claiming on stock injectors. how does that work?

I'd ditch the ecu and get yourself a powerfc, or if you really want something that has alot of features (and so you can toss the afm) get a link, haltec, or autronic.

****, you'll get alot more power with a good tune, judging by the mods you've already done.

    • Hi...so a "development" here aswell The swap is "done" and car went "test drive" BUT it seems the clutch(maybe gearbox?) is a little bit sad? I bought this clutch kit https://justjap.com/products/xtreme-heavy-duty-organic-clutch-flywheel-kit-nissan-skyline-r31-r32-r33-push-type "Problem" is that the first gear is hard to put into and it seems that the clutch is not disengaged. It was not the problem with the old clutch...(or like sometime the first gear would not get as easy specialy when the fluid was cold) So? Can it be like...bad "install" or is the clutch wrong ((it should not have been) i done research to get the right one) Or is this "normal" with new clutch and needs to be break in? 
    • @Duncan I can try  and thanks i did not thought about VIN and part numbers for 33/34. @GTSBoy yeah it looks like iam gonna do that  
    • Forgot to include this but this is the mid section of my steering rack that looks like it has a thread/can be turned with that notch mentioned in the post:
    • Hey everyone, Wanted to pick some brains about this issue I'm having with rebuilding my 33 rack (PN is 49001-19U05). All of the tutorials/videos I've seen online are either R34 or S Chassis racks which seem to be pretty straightforward to disassemble but this process doesnt carry over to my rack. Few of the key differences that I've noted The pinion shaft on the other racks bolt on with 3 torx bolts: Whereas my rack bolts on with 2 allen head bolts: These changes are pretty inconsequential but the main difference is how you pull the actual rack out of the housing. The other skyline/s chassis racks can be taken out by tapping the rack out of the body with a socket and it just slides right out. I'm unable to do that with my rack because there's a hard stop at the end that doesn't let the seal/shaft be tapped out. Can also see a difference in the other end of the rack where mine has a notch that looks like you're able to use a big wrench to unthread 2 halves of the rack whereas the other racks are just kinda set in with a punch. My rack: Other racks: TLDR; Wanted to know if anyone has rebuilt this specific model of steering rack for the R33 and if there were any steps to getting it done easier or if I should just give this to a professional to get done. Sorry if this post is a bit messy, first one I've done.
    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
