Impressive power for an unopened motor. ...

Not sure if Royce has posted here, but he is running 730whp on his stock bottom end neo.

Or maybe it was 630. Either way, impressive.

The precise symptoms I was talking about. My 33, and a couple of other customers had the same issues after using motul. Not sure why.

What Nulon did you put in your 33? How long was it on the motul with ticking before you swapped over?

Sorry for all the questions!

He's now at 850hp on standard bottom end. Only has cams/springs/studs. Check post #1035 in rb25 turbo upgrade dyno thread.

That dyno curve looks like a V8's, need's some early spiking on the controller

Was that in reference to my dyno ? When it gets retuned i will have the ebc in there that boost is just straight from the waste.

Reason i havent gorne higher boost is no studs or gasket but may look at setting it to spike upto say 20 and run 18 19 should also make 30 40 more uptop this time as got free flowing exhaust to go in

Problems with motul oil was almost instant in my R33, Which is why I thought there may have been an existing issue with the lifters, but then was told about the exact same issue with other 25's. Couldn't tell you how long I had the motul in there with the lifters.... but it wasn't long. New lifters in, and full flush and oil change, including oil cooler etc. Never had another issue.

Tuner didn't elaborate on the other 33's at his shop it'd happened too, just it was why he doesn't stock or use motul any longer.

R33 Gts-t series 2

mods: Highflow op6, 1000cc xspurt injectors, aero flow top feed rail, straight through 3" exhaust, z32 afm, nistune, big front mount, bosch 044 intank pump
fuel: Bp 98/United e85
power: 280kw/313kw @ 17psi with a leak in the intake plenum
oil: Penrite racing 10w/40
useage: Street weapon
lifespan: only 3 months so far, has had a hard life.
failure: Walbro 460lph e85 pump failed at 300kw, had to replace with the bosch 044.
comments: Feels good, will be going highmount, twin scroll hopefully soon. Running 21psi now, so should be up close to 340-350kw ish.

There was another issue with your setup if the Walbro 460L stopped, they are nearly bullet proof Ashley, and flow substantially more than the 044's.

Don't bother with the highmount, if you externally gate the turbo the stock manifold will flow 450 odd kw with better response. There is plenty more in your current setup by the looks.

I'm not sure how much mine is making but what about the 21u high flow?

I believe is only rated 30 hp less than op6...will ewg improve?

I can list my mods though if needed

Ps. U mean 450 odd hp and not kw right?

Less back pressure, more power so if you relieve as much back pressure as possible your motor aka air pump will flow more air thus producing more power.

Another reason why going a decent manifold and EWG will make more power however with some added lag OR same can be said about welding a gate on top the housing and ditching the IWG.

Wouldn't high mount be a good thing at that power level, if the tune is averaging EGT's and mixtures then having equal length runners should give a better safer tune for a stock bottom end?

    • My take on gg2 48mm, 54mm, 58mm, and 62mm compressor map for same size compressor vs gg1 : All gg2 only outflow gg1 above 20 psi. As all g gen 2 surge line at lower left of comp map move to the right, all gg2 sacrifice spool vs same size gg1, surge line move to the right worst for 54mm gg2. So for same size compressor if you want best response, use gg1, if you want max hp at >20psi use gg2 but you will be laggier vs same size gg1. Max compressor efficiency drops to max 75% on all gg2 vs max 76%-80% of same size gg1. Iirc lower efficiency means hotter iat less dense air so lower hp at same operating point of comp map. Also curious why gg2 is mapped to lower max rpm vs same size gg1 (only 48mm size both gg1 gg2 mapped to same rpm) : 54mm gg1 165,000 rpm  vs  gg2 160,000 rpm. 58mm gg1 150,000 rpm vs gg2 140,000rpm. 62mm gg1 145,000 rpm vs gg2 140,000 rpm. If gg2 can safely spin to gg1 rpm then they can flow a bit more than as mapped. Good thing that all gg 2 interchange compressor and turbine housings with same size gg 1. So gg1 owners can buy gg2 chra only if planning to boost >20psi.
    • My stuff is all with Shannon's, granted, I don't really have imports I'm driving on the road, however, I've had multiple cars at the same time with them. Presently we have the Landcruiser on laid up cover, Sarah's Kluger on full cover, and the house insured. About 18 months ago Sarah wrote her Subaru Liberty GTB off, insured with Shannon's, and the payout, and buy back of the wreck was super quick. In 2020 we had the VF Commodore totalled in a major hailstorm. Storm was on the Saturday, I called on the Sunday and lodged it, vehicle was towed on Tuesday night, assessment team called on Wednesday to say it was a total loss and get payout details, money was in the bank on Thursday morning. Have had a few other claims both at fault, and not at fault, over the years, and never had an issue with them.   Funnily enough, they're also the cheapest insurer I find for things like Sarah's Kluger.   I will say I'm less impressed dealing with them lately around "the experience", as a lot of their staff that you deal with aren't car enthusiasts. Shannon's has a much more main stream feel ever since they decided to become "big corporate", laid a heap of staff off, and then hired a bunch of non enthusiasts. At the same time they've been making a push to be less "call us and we'll personally have someone who cares help" to "hey, this computer can do stuff for you" and are trying to get more square pegs to fit round holes. (That's just the vibe I get from them). Again, have had no issues with claims with them, but get a bit of a "less personal" feel from them.
    • A thing I wasn’t happy with with enthusiast was during the initial phone call they told me they’d insure it for 130k but needed photos.   I then sent them photos and they told me $80k as there were other cars either similar modifications available for around that price, I told them to send me the links to said cars so that I can buy them. i then sent the modification list with prices of the parts (no labor) and the price then came to 115k, which is still shy of the 130 that was agreed in the initial phone call 
    • Ask me a bit later this week before payday
    • I agree that delayed payment probably isn't the most suitable solution. It seems a solid complete transaction would be best. As I wouldn't be using this sale as a line of credit that would typically earn interest, we can probably arrange a much cleaner single transaction deal. I can do $92.52 today. Would you prefer EFT, or Cash on Pickup?  😛
