hay there everyone

does anyone one know the power output in kilowatts at the wheels for a standard 1992 R32 GTS-T

I have one but's only making about 140 kilowatts at the wheels and this is with an exhaust,airfilter, 600hp fuel pump and boost settings at about 14 psi, i was told by someone who dynoed it that it's very good for this type of car,

but I reckcon it's not that great. if i want more power i have to buy a aftermarket computer and a bigger intercooler dont know if it's worth it .

I wouldn't mind a gtr but cant afford it

I thinking of selling but not sure if i could get something as good or with more power

any suguestions would be great

cheers: elbs32

I think with a pump that big, it's going to negate everything else by causing the engine to run RICH AS.

You have to have a big front mount if you want to keep the indiction air cool. That woosy little thing that Mr Nissan stuck in there is not going to keep 14psi air cold enough to produce power.

I got 145 out of my RB20DET, at around 10psi. It could be that the engine can't swallow 14psi, so it's not going to run as well.

An after market ECU is worthwhile, as it allows you to lean off the mixtures, which translates to more power. Rather than a GT-R, you could also upgrade the engine to a RB25DET - mine (RB25DET w/VVT, Wolf 3D 4+) is pumping 180 at 4 wheels, which I guestimate at 210 rwkW, 240+ fwkW. And that's on 10psi and 95 octane crap. That's close to a HSV Commonwhore, but done with 2 less cylinders and 3 less litres (but one more camshaft!)

Food for thought.

Make sure you have a dump pipe, good IC and cold air intake, then get a Toshi remapped ECU and enjoy a nice 160rwkws odd at 13-14psi.

If you want more power, i suggest you consider how much you like your R32, as its cheaper to just buy a faster car...but if your a glutten for punishment like me then you may do the whole aftermarket ECU, injectors, turbo and still be slow:(

larger front mount, power fc and a tune up should get you close to 200rwkw. upgrade ur turbo and youll be pullin maybe 230-240rwkw??

You could achieve your goal bit by bit which makes it more possible if your on a budget.

:P

but remember wen upgrading the turbs you gotta do the fuel system as well

    • Do you think the guys in Penrith are install the E85 Kit?
    • Thanks Pac!   I will reach out to them!
    • Yes, but 2 things of the top of my head, 1. Legalities of nitrous on a street car. 2. No chop chop. I fully understand that there's much cheaper ways to make power, and whilst a wet 50 shot is fairly cheap to install, bottle fills are expensive, and bottles always need to be refilled, and nitrous also has its own inherent issues with reliability, and tuning, from my experience of others using nitrous, it doesn't take alot to lunch a engine real quick if something goes slightly wrong when spraying, if I wanted a big chunk of additional powers, a spooly boy would make alot more sense, disregarding the additional engineering, supporting mods and other logistical issues of sticking a spooly boy on a car that came naturally aspirated from factory  In the end I'm not racing for sheep stations, and I don't really care if people make more power, or are faster than me, or spend less, or more than me, the only thing the car needs to do is drive around and make me smile, which it is doing now Really, I just want a shiny new intake to look at when I'm cleaning the engine bay, and of course, some more induction doorts, and maybe even that 5kw for that elusive 200hp cherry on top that I might get If the FAB9 intake plenum, TB and air filter box thing doesn't eventuate for whatever reason, Plasmaman do one, not as fancy looking, and a fair chunk of more cash is required when including the TB and other bits and pieces that are required to install it, but, it is another option that is available to me if FAB9 one does fall down (but I really, really.....really, want the FAB9 one though) TL;DR. You want what you want
