SNO33 in Vic was selling his line with rb26 in a 33gtst... The thing was making around 260rwkw from reading his post.

Didn't he have other mods though?

I was kinda hoping for about 240@wheels with about 1 bar of boost, filters and full exhaust.

Am I aiming too high?

If it has a full exhaust, good intercooler, obviously a healthy engine...if a GTR makes 240awkws / 260rwkws with std turbos and intercooler and ECU, i cant see why a RWD GTST wont make the same.

Then its a matter of what dyno are you going to strap it onto, so whats a power figure anyway

Thanks guys.

I am getting mixed reports from people as to roughly what power it will make.

People seem to be saying anywhere from 200 to 250 @ wheels, which seems to be quite a variance since the RB26 GTR's are supposed to make about 170 to 180 @ wheels in standard form.

Has anybody got direct experience with these mods on an RB26 GTR or GTSt?

Drivetrain loss will be negligible difference between GTR running in rear-wheel mode and GTS-t... I would expect that a GTS-t will have a little less loss because it is not moving a transfer case.

I have RB26 with PowerFC, full exhaust, 1.0bar, Tomei cams 255rwkW

So would you say about 230 @ wheels?

Its because dynos read different, operators run them different etc etc. I think a friend just made 258rwkws in his R33 with a tuned PFc, 1bar of boost and an exhaust...hardly huge mods but damn good number all the same.

If you are thinking of buying the car, and its the car i think it is, just buy it, i kow i want to but i have car that keeps me poor so wont be me buying it

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked... HTH
    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
