^^^ your dreaming kid... "with great power... comes no economy" lol

indeed it was on standard boost, i have the readouts somewhere here!

ive never boosted that car man, never felt the need to

now with the gtr i dont think im ever going to lol

Werd to that grasshopper, as Confucius say "With great power comes great fuel consumption"....or as I say "Power=Fuel" :w00t:

how much does a tune cost at dr drift? its in dandeong yea? looking to get more power / economy out of mine.. i get srsly shit all in my n/a.

everyone seems to recommend dr drift i think i'll be going there :w00t:

He is in Brooklyn, just passed the city on the other side of the Westgate.

just a little update seemed everyone has bigger stock power figers then me :)

so i had a look around my engine and found a disconected vacum hose from the boost solinode that goes into the cooler pipe.

seems to drive better and have more power lol

:)

Would like to see what mine makes just out of curiosity.

GTST with exhaust and boost tap to make it run bout 9 pound.

BTW, I have no idea of the difference between pound, psi, bar, etc. And am not sure that im using the correct term. I think the car runs 7 pound/psi/whatever as stock and now its on 9.

But im guessing around the 150 mark atw considering no front mount at all.

$120 mate he charged me for a full diognostic it sure was interesting :D

Whats involved in a full diagnostic? I have had my R33 for 4 weeks now and want someone to go over it with a fine toothed comb, then dyno it.

i went in today for a diagnostic coz my car always misfires. he suggested spark problem so i'll have to get onto that. while i was there my stock r33 made 140.1kw while stuttering lol. he said it wasn't a power run though or something like that. dunno wat that means? anyway attached a pic i took of the screen

140 will make a few more when you sort the sparking issue...

fark my lemon i cant belive i forgot to hook up the vacum hose to the cooler from the boost solinoid its beeen off since i thought a fixed the leak and ran it on the dyno with it off too, :P

it seems to have more power and spool faster then i heard another hiss like a blow off valve while on boost farken old hoses.

ill have to go though every last hoes now......................

it seems like i get the hoses under normal boost pressure and the air finds a new weak spot in the system to escape.

when i bought this thing i tramped down some road and it sucked me on the seat and felt bloody awsome seemed to just keep pulling i loved it........

so i know what it can do arrrrrhhhhh :P

sometimes some 'stock' cars can seem to make more power than other 'stock' cars due to a leaning out fuel pump. I know cos this was the case with mine... Dealer just told me it was a 'freak' and that some just made more power - all it was doing was running lean..........

...looking to get more power / economy out of mine.. i get srsly shit all in my n/a.

I've seen so many people go and put extractors on, get their engines tuned up, do custom air intakes and exhaust systems, etc all in the name of getting 'better economy'...

This *might* work *if* you drove using the same amount of power as before, but with less fuel being consumed... but from experience if you have more power, you tend to use it... so worse economy!

i do suburban driving and drive about 30 mins to work and back and im lucky to get 200 k's from my tank, yeah i put my foot down a bit but not all the time it should be better economy then this..

i thought a dyno tune could possibly fix this problem..?

    • @GTSBoy Yeah i know. The RB20 has 180Nm torque and the gearbox "should" take up to 400Nm if you are not doing stuff like drag/drift or dumping clutch and of course then it is pure "luck" on how will it last. My problem is (i think i said this in different post) that my car was very badly maintain so i would not be suprised if the oil in the gearbox was not changed until i bought it. Yeah the gearbox seem little bit sad.   @Sxnjeet the +T seem very interesting but from where iam from it was nearly "impossible" to done right and not blow twice as money as just swap for the RB25.
    • Hi, I went to the MINES shop here and bought something.. Niikura-San just happened to be there so I managed to take some pics and got him to sign my dash surround thingy. Its still wrapped in plastic back home.. I was thinking how to preserve the signature??? Im sure someones thought of this and done this in the past.
    • Perfect - thanks Joshuaho96!  Will see what I can source.
    • If the plastic wore, the paint will wear quicker. Heck, most car manufacturers cant keep the coatings they put on their buttons/trims alive these days for more than 5 years... A cheap paint won't do it!   However, you can get away with high quality vynil wrap, primarily in areas that won't cop much abuse. Skip colour matching, and just try and wrap a specific area with an edge in a new colour.   PS vynil wrapping is a prick of a job, and I suck at it, even for a small dead flat surface...
    • I think this is more a question you should ask the tuner. My assumption is you have nothing plugged into the original pin for ring gear crankshaft, which is where your map sensor should get wired to, but now you've asked the tuner to disable it. I'm assuming (because I haven't memorised your setup) you are using RB25 ECU on the RB20 loom, to plug into an RB25. You will want to check what else is connected potentially backwards between the engine, loom, and ECU. You might be all fine and safe. The best solution you could have done is wire in a map sensor, and leave the ECU able to read a map sensor.
