Time for another tuning results thread.

I approached Jim at CRD to tune my car following recent work and I an extremely happy with his efforts

The results shown below are based on a built RB26 with all the fruit, Tomei 260 degree Poncams and HKS GT-SS turbos

I will let the pictures below tell the story

The cars response is very good, its very agile around town and the exhaust note is simply awesome.

I can only say I am very pleased with the results

Good results nick.

Post up the torque curve why dont ya :D

From the boost curve, you're making 21.5-22 psi @ 4400 rpm ? Thats pretty good.

It will be interesting to see what you end up pulling at wsid this week. Hope it bloody well doesnt rain. If it does, I will join you next week and we can race together :D

I take it this is awkw?

Very nice result.

Intersting to see your boost hit 21 and drop back down to 20 - what boost controller are you using? Is it set to 20 and just spikes to 21?

What rpm are you hitting 1bar boost (just want to compare to williamsf1 and tommy)...

Will be interesting to see how you go at the drag strip... are you going to take this on the real (circuit) track? :D

can't wait till i get my car back in a couple of weeks or so. I'm leaving stock cams in for now, see how they cope.

Ferni, yep thats awkw

The car made 320awkw but was brought back down a tad for the final run - my request was reliability and safety rather than absolute peak power

CRD believes that my cat is causing some problems and should be replaced with a better flowing unit, which could see a gain of another 10-15 awkw

I have been itching to take the GTR on a track for a long long time now, so I will fit my oil cooler and get out there!

Boost controller is the HKS EVC 5

Nick

Nice work. Glad Jim sorted it all out for you. Too bad I didnt stick around at Croydon to see the final run but after eating maccas I was feeling like shit (big suprise!).

I have doubts about my own cat after the weekend and will be sourcing one of those phat Catco ones which look like Magic cats from Batmbl i think.

    • Yeah i found that alot of parts can be wrong or "very" hard to get the real right one. I already bought some brakes years ago on me "old" GT calipers and they were wrong too 😄  I told them too. Even send them pictures...but they said "EBC catalogue has them on my car... So i dont know what their answer will be. I call monday them and let them know that they are really not on my car. If they were they would be already on a car...
    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
