Guys,

Im putting a Rb26/30 in my R32 and was wondering what sort ot RW and AWKW i could expect the mods are:

RB30 Bottom End CR of approx 8.8:1

CP Forged Pistons

Standard Rods with ARP Rod Bolts

Balanced Bottom End

Cam Gears

Power FC

R34 N1 Turbos

Nismo Fuel Reg

600cc injectors

Serviced RB26 Head

Exhaust from standard dump pipes back

Will this setup make 350rwkw and 300awkw?

Any suggestions or comments greatly appreciated.

Hey J

I have almost the same setup - but I have used the std RB26 bottom end.

I do have dump pipes – HKS style, with the short twin pipes from the turbo down to the engine pipe (+25awkw just from them I think)

I do have a 3.5” exhaust front to back

I also have the PFC and the Apexi EBC plus the R34 N1s, forged bottom end with std rods (linished and shot peened for good measure) with some minor head work too (competition valve seats are the main upgrade)

BUT I have not got 600cc injectors, I still have the std 440cc, and I still run with the std AFMs

Now for the good news - I currently get just over 300rwkw and about 292awkw running 18psi (easy)

I plan to change the AFMs and injectors within 6 months and expect to get to 350awkw comfortably.

My next upgrade ?may? Also include a bigger FMIC – and I hope to get the same power levels at lower boost (dreaming I know)

Cheers guys,

il post a dyno sheet when its done

To give you an idea my mechanic did one of these with the N1 twins a few years back, and they couldnt find a dyno back then that could hold the car down to tune it out to redline.

They were using R32 N1s as well. It made 350rwhp at 4000rpm then just spun up on the dyno no matter what they did. And my mechanic said he would NEVER EVER put his foot flat in that car, it was too scary, yet he's fine driving 500+hp RVRs. That said, the engine did have a fair bit more work than yours.

Id say you will easy make that power and it will come on like nothing else. Will be one fun as car! ;)

Hmmm

one mans scary is another mans thrilling :(

Not that i disagree the gtrs arn't a good turbo, it's just i have not seen any of them product much better top end at all over (GT2560R/HKS 2530) for the reduced low down responce and spool up. It might just be no body has found the right setup or posted a thread on it. I think markgtr34 made around 570rwhp is the best i have heard about, but i know of plenty mid 500rwhp twin 2530/gt2560r/t517z etc so my point is ,is 20rwhp worth loosing bottom end and responce.

    • Ok guys thank you very much. GCG highflow it is then 🙂 
    • forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k. 
    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
