Putting 98 RON fuel should allow you to wind the boost up a bit higher before it starts to ping at all (much)..

why were you tuning the car on a mixture of 95/98?

it was tuned at bens and on his dyno got to 232rwkw, but on another it only got 212rwkw, the problem has been fixed now it seems that the stock boost is actually 12 psi so turning it up a bit should see the power go up,

thanks for your help guys and snowy

cheers

R34 N1s are not the same as standards but just with steel wheels. They are very different on the exhaust side with .64 A/R rear housing compared to .48 A/R for the stockies. they also have different size and trim wheels, and a ball bearing centre and a built in seperater in the exhaust housing to seperate the wategate flow. There is no reason with 18-20psi and the right tune that you can't make 330rwkw+ with those turbos. The 34 N1s are very similar to a GT-SS. Some '34 N1s' i've seen also have a .60 A/R comp cover which makes them pretty close to a 2530. They are a pretty good turbo for a street GTR.

the question is: are you sure they are 34 N1s?

yes we are sure, we have looked at them from undeneath and that is what was specified that was on the car. you can here them wind down they are definatley roller bearing.

I would have thought that with R34 N1 turbos you would have no chance of reaching 300rwkw, unless you were running some rediculas boost, say 28psi :D , and this will probably be past their efficience range.

A descent set of cams would probably solve the problem :(

I think you'll find that 34N1's are similar to GT-SS's, and would comfortably make 300rwkw on 20 psi, I doubt it very much they'll reach 330rwkws unless your running cams, big boost and good fuel or do a run in shoot-out :( . Take into consideration each dyno is different, but going by what Ben tells me they're rediculously responsive down low but do suffer a bit up top.

    • Kinkstah, no, coilovers aren't illegal, especially as a bolt straight in. The illegal part will be if they're altering suspension geometry beyond factory limits, or the ride height is not legal.   Sounds like the blue slipper just didn't want to deal with any later possibility of mods appearing on the car.
    • The problem has always been that coilovers are able to be adjusted, almost at any time, to be too low. Most people who ever get/got defected for/with coilovers were actually afoul of the minimum ride height rule. So the interpretation by cops/inspectors was always that it is pointless to allow numpty to raise his coilovers and get the car inspected/cleared, then just drop them back down again as soon as they get around the corner from the inspection station.  This led to the interpretation that they were illegal unless rendered such that they can't be adjusted (ie, collars welded to the body, that sort of thing). That may or may not have ever actually been the official line, but I'm pretty sure it's not considered to be a solution these days. Coilovers themselves fall under clause 3.2 b of that manual, because they are an "installation of a variable ride height system" and they don't fit the exclusions in that clause (which point to air springs and other pneumatic adjusters). So, as per previous statements, they require engineering cert to be legal on the road. Once you have such cert, provided you do not adjust them outside the height range covered by the cert, you are OK. Without, you have an unroadworthy vehicle.
    • Here E10 is the cheapest fuel. And general advice is to not use it unless you hate your car. From what I remember it clogs up stuff in the fuel system or injectors?  With US/Canada being E10 across the board, does that mean that all fuel there is terrible?
    • Sorry, are coilovers ACTUALLY ILLEGAL in NSW? They aren't in Vic, as long as they retain 70% of stock travel and the car is above 100mm off the ground. Does NSW actually have a law making coilovers actually illegal? RWC/Blue Slip/Engineering people not knowing the actual f**king laws boils my blood. Demand them to point to the documentation that states a coilover is illegal. (it may exist in NSW ) Edit: I checked. They aren't. https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-infosheet-light-vehicle-modifications-manual-suspension-and-ride-height.pdf
