yeah, i guess it could be a little bit leaner 11.5 is still pretty juicy....from looking at your a/f there isnt much room for bad fuel is there? your not too worried about that?

not really as i always use 98 and the guys and dyno that tuned mine has a 480rwkw GTR running similiar a/f's and he knows what hes doing!:D

around 12.0 or so is perfect a/f for our cars!

i had 151rwkw with half an exhaust, filter and 0.6bar...

a friend got 161rwkw bone stock, r33 series2 auto with a manual gearbox conversion *only* ?!?!?

moral of the story? comparing apples and oranges. as much as i'd like to compare it to your figures, i can't. On the same dyno, i could get two different readouts within an hour of each other...

my car is tuned with the afr between 11.8-12.2 this is basically a streight line after the after it drops from running 14.4 in the light load stuff,

franks you would pick up about 15rwkw with a good tune, then some more with boost, get the fuel right and you may have to addjust the timing accordingly.

did u see the HPI magazine R34GTT project car?

they pulled near 200rwkw with basically the same mods u have but 12psi boost!

You should get your retuned man!

I think that 13 is too lean, but it depends where in the power band that it is occuring. Usually 12-12.5 is about as lean as you want to go, otherwise one lot of shit fuel and your in serious trouble.

They may say that your leaning out due to not enough fuel, either buy a bigger pump or fit a fuel pressure regulator.

Yeah, I recall the HPI r34 project had similar power to Franks, but it was in stock form then. *mental note to re-read that tonight*

yeah i think they said it got around 160kw@wheels in stock form.

I am sure they got around 200kw@wheels with the same mods as franks got. They only blew the turbo when they took it for a run on the track which was after all the engine mods were done, thats when they rebuilt the turbo.

Yeah thanks...i'm not getting enough fuel. What does a fuel pressure regulator cost (estimate)?

    • Me, I would happly spend some more coin on better tyres for my street car  Will they work, yes, of course, but why substitute some dry grip/braking distance, and wet weather grip/braking distance on what is really old tech to save some coin on your "precious" street car In the end it might not be you that farks up, it's the thousands of other idiots on the street that you need to worry about  For a street car that gets some "fun time", I have found that a quality tyre that can handle dry, wet, cold (Canberra gets pretty cold) and hot conditions, which may costs a little more, is great insurance  From my experience with them (driving around Goulburn in the winter) the RE003's are pretty poor in cold and/or wet conditions on the street If RS4's didn't hate gripping in the cold I would be running them always on the street,  great in the dry, OK in the wet, but, they do hate the cold, with a passion, I run PS5's year round now, basically, I've found the PS5 to be a great year round street tyre for all conditions, they last well, and are mid range pricing wise TL;DR. Tyre choice is probably like what brand and grade oil you should use, ask 10 people, and get 10 different answers... LOL
