Ah true? He didn't mention it, just said maybe cam gears or something from memory. Need to save up a few hundred dollars for it to get dyno tuned again i spose, balls

Did I read that right...? you hit 14 psi at 5800 rpms?!?

Sounds like if you replaced your turbo/manifold gaskets you'd get better spool than if you upgraded to a ball bearring turbo!

Seriously, thats and unhealthy late spool.

This might be alittle off topic but then again it could help this guy out...Does anyone have a dyno graph of a sliding performace rb20 highflow on an rb20? it'd be good to compare it to all the other graphs on the rb20 thread...

Just had a look through the RB20 topic and dam theres something bottleknecking my car's performance bad. Most of the standard r32 turbo's are maxing at 140, some 145, mines alot bigger than the standard and it's maxing at 142 so something wack there. Most r33 turboes are making the power about 15-20 km/h higher than i am.

You're damn right there is!

I put down 219 hp, or 163 rwkw, at 12 psi on my rb20 turbo. SAFC, open downpipe, FMIC.

My roommates car made 258 hp 259 tq on his r33 turbo @ 16 psi.

Same here...i've got a standard engine with standard turbo, exhaust, fmic, fuel pump and dr drift remap and it laid down 160rwkw at 12psi too on Sam's dyno...so theres definitely something wrong with how much power you're making...

Edited by limpus

full boost should be lower....3500rpm on my cousins 32 with 33 turbo...

i thought that the comprimise of 500rpm of response for the extra power up top of the 33 turbo was well worth it...

also running 14psi on the 34 turbo on a rb20 is roughly the same as running 12psi on a rb25....

This was a write up done on Sliding Performance turbo's on an RB20DET proving that even the standard RB25 highflow is more then capable of creating 230rwkw. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...142615&st=0

Your power drops off far too early...

I've got max power at 6500rpm and then at 8000rpm I've got the same power as at 5300rpm. RB20 with R33 S2 turbo.

You should have something pretty similar seeing as you've got the same turbo except the bigger turbine housing.

Hmm damn, lots of responses saying it's shagged, sucks that it's not easily diagnosable (<< how the hell do u spell diagnosable) and the fact that the guy who tuned it didn't mention that it was dropping off prematurely worries me, hope my engines not rooted, i thought it was pretty good. Any one know of any dyno nights closer to greensborough/watsonia/eltham area coming up soon so i can see if the cat/dump has made any difference (i normally dont rev the thing past about 6.5k anyway)

    • I wouldn't be using the seats a lot since it's on Historic rego and will not be driven a lot, however I also don't want to fork out 3k for something that won't last. Havent looked at BRZ seats, aiming for something of the same era I did speak to him on the phone once, and I do see your point haha. How many kms do you think you drove before they started wearing out? Have you got a link to the ones you purchased?   Thanks for the replies fellas. 
    • I bought my Bride reps from Crank Motorsport. He is, um, a trifle disorganised. I would have to look back at the e-mails to make sure I got it right, but I think he sent me normal fabric ones when I ordered the "Alcantara" ones. So he had to pay for shipping 3x and I'm sure that f**ked him off big time. And asking technical questions where nuanced English is required is a no go. It's simple English only. And....should I have bought the Alcantara ones? Well, as it turns out, they are great, feel great, etc, but the fabris wore through on the point of the waist bolster in <2 years. Must have caught a rip from a rivet on jeans or shorts, or something like that. So now I have to patch it somehow. A bit shit. My fault, ultimately, because it is Chinesium Faux Alcantara, not the real thing, and it turns ot that it has the tear resistance of a soggy tissue. But the seats and the reails are great. I probably should have gotten the R34 style ones, and now that they price is up in that ridiculous sort of number, I could have sold them for a profit!
    • Another recco is to just let it rest for a while and go back and reconnect later.
    • keep an extinguisher nearby? or even better, take it out of the car to charge?
    • 100% hear you. I won't defend them but I will defend my ability to work twice as hard to keep them running. 🤣
