Talk to Sam about the idle problem. He would know better then anyone since he was working on the car and knows what was changed.

Looks promising though. When you are done see if Sam can lay your power curve over mine (Silver R32 with TD06 that made 240odd on his dyno) . I suspect your curve will be enough to convince me that the Plazmaman inlets are worth the money :P

Hope you get it sorted, be good to see another silver R32 makign some numbers in Vic ;)

I had a problem similar the your's with the missing so I went and bought the splitfire coil packs to but that didnt fix the problem had to the gap the plugs down to 7mm b4 it fixed it ,was a bit dissappointed with the splitfires really .I would stay with coppers to atm till you sort out your problems with the miss fire I use them all the time .Can U post up a pic of the engine bay with the plenum fitted please, thinking about getting one of them for my car but just want to know what has to be modified for it

Cheers Peter

The Splitfire are good in that you can at least be confident that the spark is even accross all the cylinders, and they are cheaper then new form Nissan. Mine are gappedat either .76 or .78mm. No issue even up to 1.5bar

On the same dyno....against an RB20 with GCG Hi-Flow R34 turbo.

Fix up the spark, also what are you doing for boost control. It seems to roll onto boost rather then really coming on and boogying. The other thing that may be worth trying is cam gears. A few ppl have now commented that could be the difference between good results and very surprising results. My first tuner said they didnt do anything on my car, the current tuner was obviously able to find power somewhere, could be the cam gears.

When Sam dyno'd my car i was running more boost then the engine was really tuned for. I asked my tuner to stop protecting me from myself and on his dyno im now making 26rwkws more so i would suggest cam gears could be something to look closely at. God knows 260/8.9mm cams didnt work in my engine :D

i had similar problems when i did my car the car turning off and not idleing is a tuning problem.

have him look at it again.

another thing i notice with your car you said it only pulled 117rwkw when it was stock.

mine pulled 142rwkw with just 3inch exhaust i dont think the exhaust would put that much power down??? would it?

has your mechanic checked the compression?

make sure you head gasket isnt screwed BEFORE you run 20 psi thorught it trust me i know from experiance. IT WILL GO BANG!

yea i have already booked in another tune with him next week. hopefully it rolls our of there purring like a kitten.. hehe.

ill let him know to do a tune Challenge between ur's and mine. then will have to line em up and let Faith know who wins :)

yea 117kw is a dead stock R32 gts-t no mods or boost. sam was telling me most stock R32's make 95-100kw's

and no i havnt checked the compression but it is a good idea. i will let sam know to check it 4 me.

ill try put sum shit NGK coppers in and gap em to 0.7mm see if that does anything.

cheers

will keep u guys posted

hey how you doin mate. look i know im a newbie and all 2 dis site but i had da same problem. wen u punch it n back off n hold the clutch in does it feel like its gona stall on u and come back 2 normal revs?? and da splattering??? ok i tried bigger fuel pump, coils, sparkplugs, etc etc etc. when i wen back dey narrowed it down 2 da vct. while dey have it on a dyno if it does it again get em 2 pull off da plug 4 it n play around wid da timing.

just a hint. it took me a month n every day at da work shop 2 get em 2 find it.

i have a r33 wid hybrid front mount single stage boost controller, bov, aftermarket fuelpump, platinum spark plugs ( which do make a better spark in my case ) that are gapped at .8.

even with da vct not connected i pulled 213.2 kw@tw. so im guessing u will blow way over wat u think :(

anyways good luck wid it n hope it works out well 4 ya :worship:

^^^ For those who don't understand jibberish:

dis = this

da = the

wen = when

dey = they

wid = with

And let me guess...you have an atmo bov...if you do then thats why you're having stalling issues...and you're making 213rwkw without a proper ecu? *cough cough*

With regards to the splitfires..

There's a thread over on the datalogit forum where some one checked out the coils with an FSA scope.

Long story short the dwll time within the pfc for the split fires was incorrect. Resulting in ignition breakdown at over 17psi odd ~290awkw.

Adjusted dwell time so that the coil is saturated and missfire disappears.

hahaha na seriously thats what i got on the dyno on a stock computer. like i said i havent had the car long so the previous owner must have done something 2 it. i know what u mean because i didnt believe it either when they told me.

sam was telling me most stock R32's make 95-100kw's

not to take anything away from sam, but i really doubt that :D

i have not heard of a single healthy stock rb20 making near that figure, hell even CA's make around that at the rear wheels. ofcourse this depends on alot of things. even i and mates have have theirs dynod in stinking hot weather, one got 140rwkw and the other got 120rwkw, both absolutely bone stock, i got 150 with just a AM catback exhaust. all different dynos at different times BTW

    • Could someone post some pictures of the factory Jack , tools, spare tire and how they were in a 1998 ER34 2 door skyline originally?
    • UPDATE: Hi all!  As we are getting towards the end of this thread where I’ll showcase final dyno numbers and graph, I wanted to provide an update. Tao from HyperGear has done an amazing job building the custom divided T3 housing for the G30. Communication was flawless, price was great, and now the housing is estimated to arrive in 7-10 days! Very very pleased. I must add, if someone is looking for an affordable turbo and end up reading this thread, I would recommend HyperGear. Genuine brands are the way to go as their proven reliability, predictable performance, and there’s a plethora of information available for specs, flow, and more. This HyperGear recommendation is based on their excellent communication, dedication, and willingness to listen to their customers. I particularly liked their ability to create custom adaptations tailored to specific needs, which is a HUGE benefit over other brands. And if we consider the HyperGear provided dyno results, it adds reassurance knowing their turbos can compete against genuine brands. Next update will be after the dyno!  
    • I've previously seen people post up "dress up bolt kits" for RBs but don't remember seeing them specify the full contents. I can only really suggest you grab the verniers and start measuring, and keep in mind the cam cover and timing cover bolts are both quite specific with a wider unthreaded section where the bushes sit, that will make it hard to get aftermarket replacements which tend to be all thread (set screws) or for longer bolts a flat section with a shorter threaded section at the end
    • I believe there was a similar one posted by @duggyphresh. They were re-routing their battery positive cable in the way I am also trying to achieve. Sorry, I’m new to this forum, so was a bit late to the party by a few months and so reignited the old thread, as I wanted to know how they got on with doing it.
    • Wasn't there a thread on this very subject just a few weeks ago?
