Hmm, providing the compression test goes well it sounds like the cam gears might be the first thing to look at

Hmm true. Getting compression test done asap anyway to get piece of mind or save going all the way back to Sydney for nothing. If compression test comes back ok then I guess its a matter of dropping it off to a workshop with a lot of experience with them to eliminate possibilities. More f!$king money lol. And no doubt I'm gonna be up for a third tune cost too

And yeah nismoid, they just dropped the exhaust from the front pipe which eliminated the exhaust being the issue

Hmm thanks for the input guys. Can only hope its not to do with compression :-/ The guys yesterday checked the cam gears and and said the 8 degree inlet and 4 degree exhaust isn't out of the ordinary so kinda eliminated that. Will see how a compression test turns out I guess. Otherwise its got me beat

Hi guys, just lookign for some input on my current situation. My stagea autech had N1 Le mans turbos fitted (rated 640hp), adjustable cam gears, 700 injectors, upgrade fuel pump, greddy profec b boost controller and power fc fitted a few weeks back in Sydney and i was a little dissapointed with the result. It made 251kw at 17 p.s.i but was running on 20" rims on a 34 degree afternoon. On the way home afm's started playing up so have since purchased a set of nismo ones and had them fitted and car re-tuned today and still not happy as i was hoping for and told by nearly every tuner ive spoken to that 300-320kw should be what i'de expect to see. Car made 265kw with nismo afm's at 17 p.s.i with factory rims back on which i think are 16' maybe? The tuner couldnt seem to work out what is holding it back but said it was just simply a dud lol. Tried unbolting the cat thinking it may be the issue but it is a catco highflow cat and unbolting it only made a 6kw difference so its not that. He also said that with a 3 p.s.i increase to 20 p.s.i in boost it was gaining only 3hp so there is a restriction of some sort somewhere. I've read alot of comments on factory airbox and intercooler being fine for the 300kw target but these are the only 2 things i can think of that havent been changed. List of current setup is: Power fc Nismo N1 GT LeMans group A turbos xforce dump pipes 2.5 - 3" front pipe Catco highflow cat 3" mandrel bent exhaust and 3 inch highflow straight through muffler JJR adjustable cam gears Walbro intank 255l fuel pump Nismo afm's factory intercooler and piping factory airbox and snorkel with K&N panel filter Greddy profec B spec 2 boost controller Any suggestions or comments on whether the power figures seem fairly under performing for these mods or if someone has run into the same situation and what was restricting it? From what i have researched i should definatly be seeing around the 300+ kw mark and its frustrating me having spent the money buying the parts i thought would get me there to fall a good 40+ kw short.

sold guys thanks

sold guys thanks

well there you go. Was only going off what person I got them off paid. $150 posted then? Lol. Like I said... make an offer

Anyone got one by any chance? Or know where to find one? Saw one in global warmers boot and I want one lol.

Hi guys/girls Bought a set of braided oil and water return lines from another forum member for when I was to do turbo upgrade but didn't end up using them. They are brand new, good quality (Japanese made). One packet has been opened just to have a look. $200 o.n.o Make an offer guys Contact number is 0422642319

Oh thanks. Do you actually have one or do I have to go to a Nissan dealer? The one in town have no idea about import parts.

AWESOME! thanks for that. and I did try searching but it rejected it :-/ might not work that well from myphone

Actually... I just read on an ebay discription of one that you can read in either kpa (which mine is currently on because I have no idea how to read it lol) or p.s.i so now does anyone know how you change it to p.s.i? As I don't have the instruction manual for it. Thanks

As per title... just wondering what they read boost in? And are they able to be changed to read in p.s.i by any chance seen as that's what most people over here seem to use over bar?

What size are the stock rs4 rims out of curiosity?

Hmm, thought it wouldn't be too hard to find. Surely there have been a few stageas written off from the front end? Lol. CAn you recall how much one cost through Nissan?

Not sure if this will make sense but i need the little hook & panel that the blind latches onto as mine was broken off today by tyre centre carelessly putting wheels in the back "Grrrr" anyone got one?

Had nismo N1 turbos, xforce dump pipes, 700cc denso Injecors, nismo fuel pressure reg, jjr adjustable cam gears, greddy clear timing gear cover, walbro in tank fuel pump, greddy profec b II fitted 2 weeks ago. Have faulty air flow meter/meters so have nismo ones on the way and getting re tune next Thu. Made 252.3kw at all 4 first time but with 20" wheels and a 34 degree day which wouldn't have helped the results. Here's a couple of pics. Will post results from next Thursday and dyno printout. P.S. got my 20" wheels and tyres (+/- 90% tread)for sale or swap for R34 gtr wheels.

Here are a few pics. Also have genuine R34 gtr nismo 6 speed 'h pattern' plaque - $22 posted

Ah right... didn't even notice that lol. Thanks for that Sean... went with the nismos to be safe. Should have kept the ones I sold you! Lol

Will get pics up on Monday

Still using the resistor pack mate. Just swapped Injectors. The gtr injectors are still in the rail with fuel pressure regulator attached too

+1 WTF? read further... I don't own the R34 gtr anymore. Bought a pair of nismo afm's

I may have missed it but where r u located?

Bump
