jus got my car (r31 gt passage) back from having a manual trans installed. it doesnt run very well, ie. not revving cleanly, makes a knocking sound when revved cold, this disappears when it warms up...

anyway, wheres a good, cheap dyno tuning place in bris, where i can take the car?

the car has a red top nics rb20det, r32 turbo (t28?) and zorst...

thanx in advance

Does it need a "dyno" tune? I've heard oodles of bad things about tuning a car on the dyno, mainly along the lines of it ends up tuned for WOT in 4th gear? Knowing very little about the subject, I woulda thought that gas analyzer would be better but maybe they use both to do a dyno tune in conjunction with each other?

Brisbane Tuning and Turbo at Woolongabba!

They where the second place on Brisbane to get a dyno...

And specialise obviously in turbo cars and dyno tuning..

Very good...

Use them my self.

  • 2 weeks later...

aha! excellent, i will take myy r31 into them next week, provided i can get the bitch started! i dont know whether i want to bother with dyno tuning as it seems too expensive, but these lads seem as tho they could figure out the problem with my car... its gotten much worse ie:

bacfires like crazy when revved to 3 grand

wont idle at all

its really pissing me off and i've already wasted time money and effort with the local workshop who have no idea what to do. do u guys reckon brissie tuning and turbo could fix my shit? its an r31 passage with the nics redtop rb20det...

thanks for your help

    • Thanks Dose.....    I appreciate it!!
    • I'll probably be putting the shit box back on the dyno again soon, I want to dial in the closed loop boost control properly. I'll have a camera facing the car/motor for fun too. Just note, there are essentially 3x 10AN inlets going into the catch can and 1x going back to the intake pipe. Most of the time the catch can "return" to the sump actually is the crank case breather, pushing air out.
    • I have the R3C with a Nismo slave and by no means does it behave like a stocker, it ain’t THAT bad. On take off just give a bit more throttle than you would say a coppermix and it’s fine. It will not slip though.   
    • Okay. Final round of testing done. Got a friend to hook up a fancy scanner to the car and we also ran some compression and leakdown tests, she is healthy.  The MAF was definitely the culprit. So for future reference anyone with similar issues that find this thread. I suggest the following steps, in order of affordability:   Check your spark plugs for any fouling, replace plugs if they are bad or re adjust the gaps making it narrower (0.8mm would be good). Check every coil's resistance with a multimeter. It can be done by probing the IB and G pins on the coil pack. Resistance should be around 1.4 (+/- 0.1) Ohms Check the MAF. If you have Nissan connect or a good scanner with the 14 adapter it should allow you to see the voltage on the MAF reading should be around 1.1 - 1.2V when car is idling. But if you don't, buy a new MAF from Amazon and test, then return it. (For instance, I got a Chinese one for $40 that was reporting 1.3v on idle). If you still have scanner, you can run tests on the injectors to see if they are working, just remember to unplug the fuel pump fuse/relay and have no pressure on the line. Then listen for the noises that the injectors make. Clean/replace injectors as needed. Once you find the issue and fix, order thousands of dollars worth of OEM parts to refresh unrelated things (Optional)   PS: Thanks to the absolute legends of this forum for the responses and help to someone that went a bit over their head.

    • Ha ha ha, so they stopped the bearings spinning on the one you want, but then decided the crank hub should slip instead 😛   Stick to RB, at least you can work on it yourself. And now it doesn't smell of vapour   Also I still believe there's a chance your new flap doesn't "pop", as even though the engine might breath hard, it has a direct path with no restriction to the inlet, which when on boost should pull a bit of suction for you. If you do get pressure in the catch can id be very intrigued. Time to put a boost gauge on it, and a session at the track, then solid cover your vent and do another session
