MODS are:

Stock boost controller solenoid grounding (disable dual stack boost)

600 x 300 x 76 Hybrid copy cooler

Apexi air filter (no CAI)

(2.5 or 3)inch SS front/dump pipe with split from Batmble

3.5inch Apexi CATBACK (Stock CAT)

Excedy heavy duty clutch

Recently rebuilt stock Diff

Stock turbo, ECU, injectors, fuel pump

No internals

Here is the result

Looking at the AFR apparently the its meant to drop to 12 under load, so its leaning abit. Only by 1pt so I dont think its too dangerous... I can still give it the odd thrashing but I prob will be too scared too.

I reckon the fuel pump is being maxed out coz injectors should be able to handle it and i can't think of nething else. What are ur thoughts ppl?

A special thanx also to RAY from RE customs, he is seriously a top bloke. The most trustworthy mechanic I have ever known... and ive known alot.

P.S. forgot to mention that boost reached 8.5psi (stock boost controller and actuator)

1 AFR is a lot...

In my opinion that is far to lean and seriously risking detonation with even a slight batch of bad fuel or a hot day/hard thrash.

I would suggest that the person that tuned your car doesn't really care about it blowing up unless he is not really sure what he's doing because that is seriously lean. I would almost bet that a few laps on the track and it would be the end.

If you buy a power fc or at least buy a safc that will have the problem solved :D

Actually, if you want to do it on the cheap, you might even get away with a fuel pressure reg as that will add fuel everywhere which is what you need.

MODS: Please edit post if I have written something inappropriate.

Thats pretty amazing, I have almost the same power mods (no FMIC) on a GTT and am only getting 165.

I dont know whether this is true but an AFR of 13 might be a little dangerous, I think 1 point is actually quite a difference.

Great result anyways dude

Yeah methinks the number is not realistic but that's not important. If that is right it is running way too lean and death is only around the corner.

I would expect the AFR's to get gradually leaner if the fuel pump was no good but they are like that right the way across.

What colour is your exhaust? Is it grey or black? If grey try to describe the shade.

if you look at how much it is leaning out, i could say that thats about right.

i got 204kw out of the same mods but with 11psi. straight after i went on my mate went on with his 33. same mods, same dyno operator and he got 175kw. some cars just make more than others.

Thats an impressive power output for such little mods... my completely stock R33 with only a full exhaust and split dump got 165rw/kw (7psi).. ill be putting a FMIC, 10psi and PFC + tune at the end of the year... i hope I hit 200+rw/kw

you have to ask how it is running so lean with the stock ecu and no piggyback... my tip would be dying fuel pump

What he said.

Do your pump and FPR and you'll be safe to run that consistently. I wouldnt even crank uop the boost for fear of R&R. Congrats on haveing one of the better 33's. Mine is like that too. I got 180 only with a cat back and pod.

if the AFR is lean, then its lean.

even with 45% correction applied or being in the wrong shoutmode the car is still too lean. this would explain the power it is making. fix the leaning out and youll go back to around 170rwkw i would expect

well its meant to go down to 12AFR and stay there so If the pump is maxing out y would the AFR keep rising?

Not sure wat colour exhaust is but recently when some1 was driving behind me they said i blew abit of smoke when i gassed it like i was running rich or something.

yea... this is wat Ray said too

yeah if your floor, its going to pretty much run rich straight away

as long the as the smoke is black its ok, just rich and thats the stock ecu so its normal (ish).

its either the pump or the fpr, try the pump

it sounds likely. mine was leaning out around 180rwkw

The leaner it gets the higher the number.

    • Very nice - I also have a 92 GTST and hardly see any others around these days
    • When I need something else to edit, I use Movavi. A friend who does video editing on a daily basis recommended me) it's an easy video cutter to use for beginners
    • I need to edit some videos for work but I'm not good at all this. Which video editor can you recommend?
    • I think you're really missing the point. The spec is just the minimum spec that the fuel has to meet. The additive packages can, and do, go above that minimum if the fuel brand feels they need/want to. And so you get BP Ultimate or Shell Ultra (or whatever they call it) making promises to clean your engine better than the standard stuff....simply because they do actually put better additive packages in there. They do not waste special sauce on the plebian fuel if they can avoid it. I didn't say "energy density". I just said "density". That's right, the specific gravity (if you want to use a really shit old imperial description for mass per unit volume). The density being higher indicates a number of things, from reduces oxygen content, to increased numbers of double bonds or cyclic components. That then just happens to flow on to the calorific value on a volume basis being correspondingly higher. The calorific value on a mass basis barely changes, because almost all hydrocarbon materials have a very similar CV per kg. But whatever - the end result is that you do get a bit more energy per litre, which helps to offset some of the sting of the massive price bump over 91. I can go you one better than "I used to work at a fuel station". I had uni lecturers who worked at the Pt Stanvac refinery (at the time they were lecturing, as industry specialist lecturers) who were quite candid about the business. And granted, that was 30+ years ago, and you might note that I have stated above that I think the industry has since collected together near the bottom (quite like ISPs, when you think about it). Oh, did I mention that I am quite literally a combustion engineer? I'm designing (well, actually, trying to avoid designing and trying to make the junior engineer do it) a heavy fuel oil firing system for a cement plant in fricking Iraq, this week. Last week it was natural gas fired this-that. The week before it was LPG fired anode furnaces for a copper smelter (well, the burners for them, not the actual furnaces, which are just big dumb steel). I'm kinda all over fuels.
    • Well my freshly rebuilt RB25DET Neo went bang 1000kms in, completely fried big end bearing in cylinder 1 so bad my engine seized. No knocking or oil pressure issue prior to this happening, all happened within less than a second. Had Nitto oil pump, 8L baffled sump, head drain, oil restrictors, the lot put in to prevent me spinning a bearing like i did to need the rebuild. Mechanic that looked after the works has no idea what caused it. Reckoned it may have been bearing clearance wrong in cylinder 1 we have no idea. Machinist who did the work reckoned it was something on the mechanic. Anyway thats between them, i had no part in it, just paid the money Curiosity question, does the oil system on RB’s go sump > oil pump > filter > around engine? If so, if you had a leak on an oil filter relocation plate, say sump > oil pump > filter > LEAK > around engine would this cause a low oil pressure reading if the sensors was before the filter?   TIA
