Is It R&r?

Hello there,

I am running R33 GTSTS2 with 14PSI of boost.

I am using the standard ECU, not retune has been done.

(But Nistune + Z32 ECU will be installed soon)

At current the car is making 300HP at the cluch.

However there is a bit of a strange behaviour.

Sometime when I floor it rapidly it feels as if the engine has been shut down for a few seconds.

It's quite violent, but no misfires or stuttering.

Then after a second or so the engine comes back to life and everything is back to normal (I have to ease off the pedal though)

In contrast when I floor the pedal a bit more sensitive everything is fine.

For example I can go to top speed with no problem whatsoever ..

Is this R&R?

Yep that sounds like R&R, 14psi is too much for the stock ecu and you will need a tuned/new ecu to fix that (or lower your boost right down)

Hi!

Thanks ..

Nistune Z32 ECU + AFM is here for the rescue.

I have no idea how R&R feels ... I thought it would be kinda smoother effect.

(It feels like the ECU is actually shutting down the whole engine for a moment)

I'd be more worried about how long that standard turbo is gonna last at 14psi .. :wub:

(Sidenote - how do you know what power you have at the 'clutch'?)

Hi there,

I 'know' about the power because of the Dyno .. the 300 figures is obviously calculated.

(It's 250HP rear wheel)

Ummm that is a chassis dyno, therefore it's "300hp" @ the rear wheels dude.

Although 300 is a bit dubious.

You can clearly see the big flattening off in the first graph, R&R mode kicking in. Plenty of results around that depict this.

Hi!

Thanks for pointing this out ...

But it is definitely is not 300 rear wheel.

At the Dyno they first plotted the higher figure, I guess to impress customers.

Here's (attached) what they said it is RWHP

(I wish I had 300 at the rear)

S_HP is predicted flywheel horsepower...

but thats ok because you have never been wrong

I'm honestly stunned a tuner (and really, anyone who uses a dyno) would even bothering to use the 'predicted horsepower' feature given how inherently inaccurate it's going to be ... it's just going to confuse the owner, really. (But hey it gives a higher figure for the warm fuzzies, right?)

Guess i should open the attachment fully next time to read the fine print, never to worry though when there are people like you are on hand!

LOL,

This has really become a fun thread.

I like ->

'He is from England'

:whistling:

But ... I am half German, so only interested in real and precise numbers.

I don't know about the inherent formula to calculate 'clutch hp' but it can not be too far off from the truth.

Anyhow, I am aiming at HP 350+ at the rear and hope Nistune was a good investment to eventually get me there.

Cheers from the land of clutchpower,

Andrew

Here are some pictures from last weekend:

It could be that you have reached the Air Flow limiter or "Boost cut", if that's the case its easy to sort out with nistune just open up your bin file and scroll down the bar on theft till you reach "TP Load Limit" set these to "255" or if your using the hex editer set them to "FF" this is maximum sume set it a lower so just above STD

I will resolder/rewire the Z32ECU this weekend and dive into the abyss of Nistune :whistling:

I will definitely have questions!

      This is a story of my life things, I learned eventually (thanks to someone calling me out) that my enthusiasm for discussing and sharing ideas that it came across as arrogance and I'm like... WTF?!    One thing I'm pretty sure I justifiably pride myself on is knowing that everyone will have things they can teach you, and you're always going to find out that something you think you know turns out wrong - you just don't know what it is until you get there.   Just the bursting enthusiasm that comes with ADHD when you hit something that gives you dopamine dumps can come across like you think everyone else is wrong or don't matter. But yeah, I'm a software engineer by trade and also do tuning in weekends and 100% have long had a reputation for  quickly making connections when resolving problems or forming solutions that I've sometimes had to take people form a long walk from start to end to explain how I ended up where I did when it's seemed "too simple" when I've stated my initial case, and had the "WTF" type reaction when they've realised how much was actually considered haha.   My reward is that I get all the curly problems thrown at me.

      Wives never seem to find things funny. Especially when they're trying to sleep, and you've found the new funniest thing ever. I've never seen someone be able to get try and be cranky with me, while they're holding back fits of laughter... 😛   Also, I tell mine it's payback anyway. She has BiPolar. So the household can get quite emotionally wild at times 😛

      I'm not up to date on the latest, but for basic modifications like pod filter, lower springs etc you can get a modification permit at the time of inspection.  For more serious modifications you will need engineering.  Intercoolers used to fall into the mod permit rule but its been a long while since i looked it up.   Either way you will be able to get it registered, just a case of $300 vs $3k .

      WA PITS: Am I screwed?

      By Degzy · Posted

      Hi everyone! I’m the new owner of a 1996 R33 GTS-T, I’ve purchased this car over from Queensland and brought it to Western Australia and I’ve found that there is a hole cut out in the engine bay for the FMIC that enters into the wheel well (fender liners are in the boot). For anyone that has had to get their car over the PITS here, will this be a major issue?
