Quick question guys, is 210rwkw @11 psi possible with those mods or is the seller exaggerating? I'm really only familiar with the approximate power increases of bolt ons so I don't know what effect pushrods, pistons and a crank has on the power output.

Cheers.

It is possible to get a reading that high on a dyno, but the reality is it isn't making any more power than the average 33 that reads 180-200kw on other dynos.

Yeah I thought 210 @ 11psi was a bit much.

Still looks like a pretty neat car for the price, will go check it out.

Cheers mate.

Looks like a pretty schmick example, I would make sure you get proof and evidence of the rebuild though, ultimately I would call the workshop that did the work and see what they have to say as they are almost always completely unbiased in these situations.

Respray and rebuild would have cost ~$5-6k at minimum so it is good value for money.

depends on what turbo it is running, it may be a highflow. the engine has been rebuilt so the compression may be a bit higher. i'm also guessing it probably has some form of aftermarket ecu, especially since it says it has an extra injector (crude way of adding in more fuel). i'd say that it is entirely possible for it to be making 210kw at 11psi. only way to find out more would be to talk to the guy.

Yeah a highflow will easily make 210kw on 11psi.

So did you end up finding a Skyline? Interesting thread as i've just gone through the same process...
