No Low End Power

Hi guys I have a R33 1.5 gtst

it has aultronic sm4

450hp garret turbo

walbro pump

555cc injectors

HKS cooler

3.5 inch exhaust

and all the other bits and pieces.

the car was road tuned good and safe, but didn't have much pick up in the lower rev range.

( can't spin the wheels in a standing start, just bogs down bad) top end is very smooth, not that throw you back in the seat which would be nice.

I am thinking I might need to take it to another tuner for a dyno tune and see if he can fix the problem.

can any one shed some light on this problem? before I book it into a dyno time.

Sounds like a safe tune, not a responsive one. Too soft on the igniton advance makes a car unresponsive and makes the power delivery smooth rather than having it come on hard and fast. You cant fix this without booking more dyno time because ignition changes will affect your AFR's as well, as the fuel will be being burnt properly and it will be once a little more ignition is added.

You need to find someone thats skilled with the autronic as well as knows the rb25 really well.

    • I am currently going this route. I am curious how much horse power you put behind the cut bell housing? Collins was telling me I am going to crack it and bluh bluh bluh. Because I didn’t buy the custom fly wheel from him. I am looking for somewhere around like 500 hp
    • Forgot to mention that these are the before pics when I first got it!
    • Thanks @PranK for the updated member status, much appreciated! 👍🏼 Now, about those pics… Unfortunately I could only find ones that I took in the dark. I was soon to discover that underneath it wasn’t in the best shape, but it was mine and that’s all I cared about at the time 😆
    • Oh, and only having done this task yesterday, I've now driven the car ~60km since, and while it is hard to avoid placebo effect and confirmation bias, I reckon that some annoyances I had with the way the car has been behaving have improved. Which....kinda makes sense, I guess. If the bushes were really stiff and resisting rotation, they would have been contributing to the effective wheel rate. And if it was more so on one side (which it was, because one side was worse than the other) then.... you might imagine that the additional rate would be asymmetric, and potentially even different between compression and rebound. And so... the car has been twitchy at higher speeds - like freeway on ramps. It really shouldn't be. The wheel alignment is good and there are no (other) known problems elsewhere in the suspension. But at 90-100 on a long sweeping ramp, tiny steering wheel motions would make it feel like it wanted to rear steer. Quite nervous. At lower speeds it would heave about in a manner that it didn't use to. Didn't want to put power down, etc etc. Now...seems to behave better. Am going to have to concentrate on the various corners where it has exhibited weirdness, on the rare occasions when I can get a decent run at them without Methanial getting in the way in his D-Max/Ranger/LDV Van/etc.
