let me get this straight

10% lower

so this car on any other dyno would make ......

319 divided by ten is 31.9 in case you dont know / cant work it out

319 by plus 31 would be 350

THREE HUNDRED AND FIFTY REAR WHEEL HORSEPOWER FROM A STOCK TURBO

does that even look remotely close to being right for you? dont dance around the question, answer it! does that look like something that would normally happen on a R33 Skyline powered by a RB25DET motor with minimal mods? just answer that, i dont want stories about corrections , timing, dynos, just answer me that

jesus snap out of the day dream!

Didnt realise that this thread was about Bretts car

the 53 degree inlet also seems pretty funny.

im not accusing anyone of anything or the like, my call here is that this thing must have hidden mods. you just need to find them.

End of the day Brett made his power 2 odd years ago, old news, lets stick to this other mystical freak 33 shall we?

All Dyno Dynamics Dynos should read almost identical results if in Shoot out mode? No matter what intake temp!

Wrong. Well, sort of. The inlet temp sensor has to be placed in such a way that it ACURATELY reflects the ACTUAL temp of the air entering the engine (usually before the filter).

u would think u work for xspeed or hyperdrive. give steve a break, he is only tuning it he doesnt know the exact details of the internals/mods. :)

^^^ i agree....Steve is only doing the job he was asked to do...maybe Teejay you should pay for the labour to find out what is in this car....then we would all know what 'mods' it has!!!

Ezz up on Steve he is a top bloke!!!!

Ive offered a free dyno run to confirm the figure... no reply as of yet. Would be on a brand new DD dyno , 4wd in ground, with the latest and greatest of everything.

I dont work for any performance shop, i work for the Water Corp, ... but i also work for Perth Street Car magazine.

Would make a really cool story "car makes amazing power with little mods"

Call my questioning of this "research" since i get sick of the crazy amount of people who will come and make wild claims like this (not saying this is!).

Ease up on who and why? Im not attacking anyone, I'm just incredibly keen to see a real answer to this mystery, not "oh it made the power its true, it must be" Im not questioning the power, just how its made. read my other posts to see where im coming from. Steve chooses, to answer, i choose to question, its all been done in a civil non rude / attacking / slanderous manner, so whats the issue?

I just want it played out to an honest answer. If it ends up being that its made the power with the stock turbo, ill applaud it.

Till then get your emo out of here, and let some interesting Skyline related talk keep going. Wasteland for you if you cant handle the skyline chat.

Teejay there is no emo from me...but Steve is only asked to tune the car not find out what mods it has to make the power....Its up to the guy to get someone to check out how it can make this power and as you put it snap out of the day dream or prove that it is from a stock turbo with min mods!!!

OK i cant back the 299.1 car yet but early this week a GTS with SAFC cooler and cat back made 292rwhp.Before you start it did go to the plex on wed this week.13.1 all night with a best of 13.0 I do think thats a WA Stock GTS record. Was the Silver S2 R33.Im getting a time card to post but the speed was about 180ks.As Rev210 said Track is proof.

We also have full Shootout 4WD dyno about to be fitted.

I was there on Wednesday night and can confirm the car did run a best of 13.08 from memory. I work with the owners girlfriend and was watching the car closely. I believe it still has a stock dump pipe!

Still on 235/45/17 road tyres (not drag rubber)

The ironic thing is that the owner was disapointed that he couldn't do 12's

If you are a shootout workshop and running in shootout mode you must place the sensor at the air filter. Top Racing are shootout workshop!

All this talk of different Dyno's, and prove it on the track etc, really amuses me.

The thread title is........... 319wrhp Standard Turbo! (maybe).

You cannot prove any of this without dismantling the turbo. FULL STOP.

And any of you other guys with "freaks" should think about this.

I know my Turbo was "hi-flowed", as I had it done when I killed it (as stock) with too much boost.

I wonder how much anyone else knows how stock their turbo is ?

Will continue to watch this space with amusement.

what was too much boost?????

The guage I had then showed 17 lbs a coupla times before it went.

I had built an Electronic Boost Controller was dialling it in with a gut full of piss and my Son at the wheel.

It may have been a combination of me fiddling with the load points and a lack of consistency in the runs.

Anyway, that turbo was certainly not a freak. It got 184 rwkw on a dyno day (maybe a bit friendly even).

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
