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.

    • Welcome. Dont let anyone dissuade you from your dreams. If you want a gtr, keep sabing and you will eventually get one. I feel like if I had have bought stocks, those companies would have gone bust and I would have lost my money.  There's a gamble in everything we buy. I've had good times and bad. But... I've also met my absolute best friend through this network and can't imagine life without them(more like a brother). Keep in mind, some specific mods will change as technology gets better. If you feel like general chat, there's always the wasteland.....
    • Those are some very cutesy barriers! Is that common?
    • Saw this abandoned Honda Fit in a carpark that was getting repaved... they just 'cut around it' and continued with the job! There's a number of reasons why the car could have been abandoned, but as for the construction company, legally they don't have permission to move the car from the owner (who has moved on and can't be contacted) so all they can do it just leave it there with enough space around it so it won't get damaged. 
    • You’ll want to have the block drilled and tapped to suit 1/2in head studs and the head for the same. How much power do you intend to make?
    • Sorry for resurrecting an oldish thread Not much has happened in the past year since the last update. The car did another 1000 miles or so and failed the MOT for the first time in October (failed on tyres which had been advised for a couple of years) In October the car got put up for sale and was removed in November due to no interest, being so close to christmas it was to be expected. The roads were dry in February so I decided to tax it early and get the new tyres fitted.   Fast forward to April, I got someone in to give the car a good clean after sitting for the winter.                                 The car got re-advertised and today (Saturday 3rd May) the car sold. The new owner is planning a GTR conversion at some point and a respray in the same pearl white. It's bitter sweet, it's a shame to have the car sit there for half the year and then only do 1000 miles. The kids are growing too quick and space in the back is getting limited. It's been a great 6.5 years of ownership
