You guys can all laugh, but there IS a definite relationship.

Basically 6cc per minute per flywheel horsepower is a very close approximation of fuel flow at optimum air fuel ratio.

As you have six cylinders, and six injectors, that means max flywheel horsepower = Injector flow at 100 percent duty cycle.

So basically 550cc injectors would equal 550 flywheel horsepower absolutely flat out at full maximum duty cycle. But that is not real smart. You might want to limit it to 80% duty cycle maybe ? Which would be only 440 flywheel Hp.

But then there are drive train losses, typically only 85% of flywheel power makes it to the rear, so that comes to 374 Hp. Converted to Kw that is 275 RWKw.

Depending on the injectors you run, and assuming the fuel pump is up to the job you CAN figure out a reasonable RWKw versus injector size.

So absolutely balls to the wall with no margin might be injector size in cc x 0.85 x 0.746 = RWKw

Something safer and more reasonable might be injector size in cc x 0.8 x 0.85 x 0.746 = RWKw

Just curious as to what the 0.746 represents, that you have used in your calculations.

Just spoke to my tuner and he said there were no issues with the fuel pressure, it was 58psi when it was tuned.

Took the car on a longer trip and it does 11L/100km highway driving and 15L/100km for longish city driving.

The 270rwkw has been confirmed on two different dynos and I have reasonable knock figures (highest I have seen is 40 when really pushing it in 3rd).

Anymore comments?

511rwhp on stock injectors.

it's all about the batch fire....

Sorry, batch fire makes no difference, when duty cycle is 100%, its still 100% if you fire it twice. There is only ways to make more power after you reach the limit of the stock fuel system, raise the pressure, which pushes more fuel through, change the injectors for bigger ones, or get additional fuel elsewhere ie water methanol or auxillery injector.

All the guys making significantly more power than the norm, i dare you to fit the fuel rail and injctors from a stock car and do a power run, the only way to be sure that you injectors are stock is to flow them agaainst known stockers.

    • Wideband is worth setting up if only for tuning purposes. I would not mess with the ignition system unless there's a misfire. HKS crank trigger is popular out here for the relatively easily sourced Denso crank sensor, not a bad idea to install as well regardless of power level on a standalone. Boost leak test is worth thinking about. Oil pressure sensor tied to a fuel cut isn't a bad idea either. Getting the tune figured out is a good idea. Without putting eyes on it and getting under it there's no way for us to tell you exactly what it needs but most likely you're down to the last 10% that will make a big, big difference in how happy you are with the car.
    • Doing a refresh of my 33 and can see a few websites stating they sell the entire main carpet for our cars, but they all have generic photos which is fine, i understand they are custom made to order.  Just seeing if anyone has got it done or had any experience with this, as i would only want to do it if the fit and finish was as good as oem https://carmatsdirect.com.au/products/moulded-carpet-or-vinyl-for-nissan-skyline-r33-1993-1998-coupe https://knoxautocarpets.com.au/moulded-carpets/nissan/skyline/skyline-r-33-1993-1998/
    • Any plans for E85? If so, add flex fuel sensor.   I'd probably add in the sensors I mentioned above if the Link will support using them for engine protection. With water pressure, you need to be able to effectively set it that "If temp > X, and pressure = atmospheric, shutdown" as at running temp, you should be able to read pressure in the cooling system. If pressure suddenly disappears, it means the water went some where, and this is a quicker reaction than waiting on water temp to go up (Which, can take a little longer than you'd like, considering it now has to wait for hot air to heat it up) Oil pressure, Oil temp, both would be on my list too if you're looking to add sensors. Wideband O2. And at least one EGT sensor. If you're feeling deluxe, put in individual runner EGTs. Single EGT sensor is more so forget about a specific number, get used to "What is normal EGTs", and then keep an eye on it, if it starts going away from "normal" it's a sign something is wrong (Also, things like the tune can still start going out of spec, but EGTs may not show it, for example one injector starts running leaning, so ECU richens everything up, now 5 out of 6 cylinders are rich, and running cool, with one cylinder lean and running hotter, so it's not perfect) Then there is your other things to look at non sensor related, but you may have already done, or have underway, and that would be things like building a sump for more oil, and better oil control under high G-Forces (Cornering, brakes, acceleration). Basically, the above is worth looking/thinking about, if the ECU can do protective stuff with it, and you continue to use it how you are (Drive it to the track, thrash it, drive home, repeat once every 3 to 4 months)
    • Can also confirm these work a treat for most balljoints and bushes. If you have access to a big rattle gun, they make the job so much easier and quicker, compared to using a socket wrench or shifter on the c-clamp 👍
    • Its sort of street but got used for circuit sprints on account of I never drive it on the road because I dont have the time to spare. So it usage was sits around for months at a time then gets driven either 50 or 250 kms to the track followed by 20 laps followed by 50 or 250kms home followed by stuck in the shed until next time. So yeah neither fish nor fowl. Just dont want to break it on the track as a preference. Hence the fairly short sensor/mod list. Probably more worried about it pinging itself to destruction more so than anything oil related.
