I have just had my car on the dyno today, and was told it was hitting a boost cut at 12psi. I thought the cut would have been higher than that. Can anybody comfirm what the boost cut is so I can investigate further if it isn't.

I ended up getting 208 rwkw at 5615rpm on 10psi with a 2 3/4 cat back exhaust, k&N panel filter and a SAFC II, so I am happy, but 12psi would make me even happier

Cheers

tats a pretty nice figure with just exhaust, filter, safc and 10 psi

satanic on this forum had 194 or something with the same mods except he had FMIC and just a catback so i guess its pretty similar

i think some ppl experience boost cut at anything above 10 with the standard ecu

i thought the safc would remove the boost cut? hmm, i guess im wrong then

Sounds like a pretty happy dyno but just the same it sounds alright to me. Knowing what I know now (as opposed to before I went too far) I would sit back and accept that as pretty good and enjoy it.

Post your dyno sheet if you like and we can comment on that.

I mean Richen the fuel, retard the timing, recover.

repeat.

I didn't want you to think I thought you were a rich retard!!!

Rich/Retard is what happens when the stock computer sees higher than expected airflow/boost etc.

Hey guys what does the standard boost gauge go up to??

does +1 mean 14 or so psi??

is it fairly accurate?

mine goes up to about 2mm from the +1?

roughly how much would it boosting do you guys reckon??

my gtt when fully boosting sometimes pops a little at around 5krpm could this be the boost cut??

i really would like to try and find out what is causing this before i go and replace coils and get safc etc??

That's not boost/fuel cut. Boost fuel/cut will make the car jerk and will throw you a bit forward if you are accelerating hard enough when it does it.

Yes 1 on the stock boost gauge is approximately 14psi.

The popping is unburnt fuel in the exhaust and nothing to worry about.

Your graph looks very similar to mine when it was tuned poorly running 13-14 psi of boost. You may want to get that checked out.

Another R34GTT tune... 208rwkw is a very good number! I presume your car is a manual? This may explain the variance of 13-14kw between yours and mine since we have pretty much the same mods.

However, if you look at the graph in my blog, you'll notice that curve does not have any 'kinks' in it... maybe if you sort that out you'll be looking at 220rwkw which should be the correct difference between auto and manual.

Sorry to sort of diverge from the topic but is yours a series 2 R34 because of the R34 GTT's I've seen around here (QLD), the series 2 cars seem to boost close to the +1 but the series 1s go to about the 3/4 line (the mark before) and rarely over that.

mine is a series one

with exhaust fmic airfilter.

    • Guys since i bought r33 gts25t coupe 1994 automatic a/t(manual swap 350z gearbox)  all i got is problems, always problems. Lets start with that when i turn key into ignition(ON) fuel pump doesnt always works. Sometimes i have to turn key twice Off/on/off/on until it primes. Its new, dw300 - 340lph. My gearbox broke so i did gearbox swap, install different intake manifold, injectors and i take pipes. Car was sitting in garage for more than half a year. I did assembly all not that long ago and when i turn ignition cant hear prime. All of sudden it stopped working. Theres many videos on YouTube how to make relay mod on r33 straight from battery so i did and it doesnt work! 😰 30 - battery positive  87 - positive from fuel pump to relay 85, 86 - one of two wires from original fuel pump wires(light blue, grey) and it didn’t work. so I check on ignition and took original BLUE relays wires from trunk, next to fuses. (I believe it’s IGN+ and ECU pin 18. it didn’t work…  tried connecting (IGN+ from og relay) and (ECU 104 from 1of4 FPCM wires) to my new relay 85/86 and it didn’t work.  I unplug FPCM. Didn’t work. im thinking what’s wrong   fuel pump is working, if I leave IGN+ on 85 and 86 straight to ground it works but it’s just nonstop. Since it getting constant 12v after key in ON. light blue wire gives me 6-8v.  so how this should be connected? What causing ECU not giving — on pin? Or I did sth wrong and that’s why it doesn’t work? I need negative signal on ECU that control fuel pump. What this should be?
    • You can use your VIN to look up the factory part number somewhere like amayama, and then look to order new if necessary. https://www.amayama.com/en/genuine-catalogs/nissan Depending on price you might want to rebuild instead. @GTSBoy I had an interesting insight into US market parts when the Titan rear calipers were sticking. New calipers were dirt cheap, about 20% more than a rebuild kit....they are just considered throw away maintenance items
    • Funny, but really not funny. Thank god (most) f the world has moved on since then
    • Lots of votes for driving onto a plank first; that is the quickest way I've found, 25mm is enough for my case but that will vary by car It also depends where you are going for. On the 32 I can get to the rear diff with my floor jack if I do that end first, and get it up on stands. Then I lift the front from either front tow hook as high as needed, also onto stands. Sometimes I need a small lift on the other tow hook to get it level enough If I do the front first I can't get to the rear diff because of the angle of the car Other options are getting to the front mount of the rear subframe from in front of the wheel (if only lifting one side, or just do both which is a bit of a pain compared to one lift from the diff), or also the gearbox cross member mount on the driver's side if you are  just trying to lift the driver's side. I This is the jack I use; it says 75mm clearance but of course that is only on the lower section so if you have to reach too far in like the diff you still get stuck. https://www.snapon-bluepoint.com.sg/category/Floor-Jacks/product/Floor-Jack,-2-Ton-Low-Profile
    • On the bright side, the weather will turn much nicer for working outside shortly....sounds like you might need to start on a neighbour's garden next
