Why go aftermarket turbo when the stock one will reliably handle n make 30 less kilowatts?? Ie 200 rwkw. If u wana go aftermarket then mite as well go for at least 270 rwkw and up

as 30rwkw makes a huge difference.

had 460rwhp on stock engine just bolt ons but limited the revs to 7g everday driver.. right fuel, right tune, right maintenance will see it last as long as it can when it blows build it ;)

Ash this may interest you as i know your a racepace (killer workshop) fan boy.

We see quite a few cars from Racepace through nowadays and the results we see from our hub dyno are very close to the dyno dynamics dyno (generally 10 up or down) they are running... so hub versus roller is moot.

In fact only last week had a bayside blue R34 gtr with t518z's from there last week which pulled 280kw on mine and he had a dyno sheet for 290 from racepace exact same boost.

ye i know your results are pretty similar mate, its just one particular place in SA that's doing ridiculous fudge :)

Using the same dyno/correction they use on the said SA dyno my car went 410kw at the hubs. On the same tank of fuel it went 360rwkw on a dyno dynamics roller!

Take from that what you want :)

Also my car has been going fairly well with the 360rwkw for about 6 months now, including a run down the drags and at the track for time attack, I wouldn't recommend this much power to everyone though haha

How much power can a neo motor reliably handle on 98 fuel and on e85 that gets tracked and little street driven?

Assuming it's all tuned properly ect..

The reason I'm asking is because I've heard or read somewhere here that neo have stronger rods.

Trackcars are tuned abit softer, keep ur oil cool and dont skimp on quality fluids.

Power will depend on setup. Pushing a smaller turbo out of efficiency (too high boost) is worse than running a slightly larger turbo in its efficiency range but both making the same power

About 270rwkw, as mentioned many times across the board above this is pushing the long term longevity of the motor. I do not think it is the rods yet rather the overall construction of the motor itself.

Yeah thats what I thought. Making 280rwkw on 17psi hypergear atr43g3 with .82 rear end. Turbo doesn't run hot at all. Have all supporting mods, greddy oil cooler. Always run good fluids. I use motul 300v 15w50 which gets changed regularly.

The reason for asking is because I am thinking of getting a tune done in e85. But not sure whether it is safe to go more power or not with this fuel. I'm happy to leave it at this power level and enjoy the other benefits of e85 but more power is always good. cheers.gif

I have a mate who had a 33 with 320rwkw on race fuel with stock internals (although tomei cams) as his daily. It ran reliably for 3 years or so until he sold it. It had done a few runs down the strip before he bought it, but otherwise he babied it. To be honest, if he had been hammering it on tracks etc i think it wouldnt have lasted. Needless to say, the thing was scary fast for the street

Well definetely get the tune done on E85. Will be a lot safer - less chance of detonation and the engine will run cooler.

Just keep the tune making around the same power if you are that worried.

Yeah I'm not overly worried, just wanted to know what is safe. If I can go more power then great! If not than I won't and still enjoy the benefits. But looks like I will just keep as is power wise and not risk it. Just thought I would try and clear this up about neo motors as I wasn't to sure with e85.

yeah and you're and idiot for continuing with this without knowing the full facts.. the owner of that dyno tunes with no temp probe correction. IE the dyno assumes an ambiant of a defult 100 deg C and then spits out a high reading. MY tuner hires the dyno and uses the intake probe correction, and the RIGHT mode on the dyno which puts it within witin range of a roller dyno. gibe or take 10 rwkw or so.

mine made 410 rwkw with no temp probe. and 367 rwkw with temp probe. - 10 rwkw off that and theres a round about 357 rwkw from a roller dyno.

hmm interesting feedback. may have to reconsider some things. either way 230kw is a big difference to the 200 my car is currently making. thanks for the info guys

crack 300 on a mainline simon??

sorry, had to stir :P

Pushing a smaller turbo out of efficiency (too high boost) is worse than running a slightly larger turbo in its efficiency range but both making the same power

If they are both making the same power how can the smaller turbo be worse unless you mean you are loading it too much?

How you can do a proper temp correction on a turbo car is beyond me?:whistling: It's not just a linear equation concerting the amount of O2 (like for a nasp) but complex shit involving intercooler efficiency and all sorts.

I wish peeps would just quote power at the wheels - on the day - and not the jiggery pokery of corrected this and that.:thumbsup:

Fwiw we tuned my new motor last night and made better power and response on less boost

3kw more with 2psi less and a couple deg less timing aswell!

So it seems like after 3 years of 300rwkw on what seemed like a healthy motor might have been takin it's toll slowly over time

Was everything else the same (eg: compression ratio) and same dyno?

I would expect that a tight new motor would make a bit more power than a high km stocker :)

Keen to see your new graph, always been impressed with your set up!

Sam tuner, dyno etc etc

the motor is a "young" stagea 25 that was attached to an auto all it's life vs a very old skyline 25

Will post when I get to my computer

    • It can't be some stupidly proprietary video signal coming out of it that only Nissan's can understand. Surely you can just find some generic camera to stuff in there and use hot melt glue/blu-tac/gaffer tape to hold it in place if need be?
    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
    • Maybe SAUNSW could see howany members would do a motorkhana day if Schofield's is still available for a reasonable price...
