Top RB20 Club... do you have over 260rwkw?


Recommended Posts

anyway, put my RB20DETT R31 2 door on the dyno, for a full tune and bumping up the boost.

Got 182rwkw @ 7000rpm on 13psi of boost in 5th gear. Dyno wasn't a dyno dynamics and this dyno was known to read lower than dyno dynamics dynos so meh.

Damn that is a cool sounding setup...

Do you have any pic's? :P

Well the GTSR recorded its highest ever figure yesterday arvo on the dyno.

Last tune made 235rwkw @ 16psi, graph is somewhere in this thread lol.

Had some ignition dramas and as I found out a blocked cat so a magic cat was thrown on along with a different ignion setup and they dialled in 22psi to see what it would do and it spat out 283rwkw. When I pick it up I will post the new graph.

That is awesome...its good to see the thing turn a good number after having put so much blood sweat and tears into it.

Are you planning on running that sort of boost? I recall talk that your engine had been opened and tweaked...? Personally based on all the hard work and coin you have thrown at it i would enjoy the thing at 18psi for the next 6 months :O

Again congrats!!

What lies inside the engine is still an unknown quantity. It was supposedly an RB24 but the stroke is still as per factory.

A few mechanics have commented it has the "forged piston rattle" on cold start but the car is 19 years old so god knows whats rattling lol. Time will tell whats inside, hopefully not soon though...

And I will definately be pulling out some pressure. The gearbox was whining already so I dare say one run through third gear will result in failure.

very nice figure indeed, is it an original GTSR?

as for it being a waste of time(my TT setup), no i don't think it is, i think it could have some potential.

As for pics, engine bay pic is in my signature

Yes it is an original GTSR.

Mods: 3 inch exhaust , A/M Ecu, Injectors, fuel pump, remote mounted falcon coil pack and thats about it.

Everything else i.e turbo, extractors and cooler is still factory.

That is so cool that the thing has finally punched out numbers....and considering it was a little more responsive then mine from memory, well that awesome :P

What did you end up doing for a dump pipe, as from what i have seen the std rear housings are difficult things to work on?!?!?

very nice fat-gtsr. what after market ecu are you using? i take it its not a pfc from the lack of afm? no porting or cams?

how did you measure the stroke without removing the head? verniers down the plug hole? could be just an rb20 crank with 82mm pistons?

and your right about the box. i'd be looking at a rb25 one very shortly. either that or use 205 tyres on the rear MAX. :D

my rb20 box has just about destroyed its main shaft bearings again with only 220rwkw.

Roy, I am yet to do anything with the dump as I dont know what to do myself!

The Ex group A racers are coming for a historics meet at the island in a few weeks so I am going along to try and have a peek at what they did on those things.

Kwazza, ecu is Autronic and no porting has been done. Cams are unknown but possibly factory as previous runs have made max power at 6,000-6,100rpm.

How was the stroke checked? No idea, I can ask the mech but no the head did not come off.

Didnt finish work in time today so will be picking it up tomorrow morning and will put up the graph.

If you like when im back in Melbourne we can go araound and have a look at the Grp A car of my friend , though i wouldnt be surprised if the rear housing is a bit different to what the road cars came with...i know he went to a lot of troubel and expense, and help from the right ppl to get a new version of the turbo the car use to run

    • So next year I am looking at upgrading from my VE SS bomadore ute to something more refined.  I wanted to stick with a V8 but not anything German or Australian, either a coupe or a sedan. So if I wanted anything newish that limited my options to either the Lexus RCF which I quite like. But with the price they demand and a kid on the way a 2 door coupe is probably not going to be the best idea. The next best thing would be the ISF but the newest models are 2014 and commanding over 60k and even the older 2008 models in ok condition starting around 35k is kind of bullshit. So I figured if I could not have the noise I could perhaps make do with easy power. Enter the infinity Q50 or Skyline equivalent. The price difference between the 300 and 400hp models seems a bit crazy. Right now there is 300hp Q50 one on carsales from a dealer with 61km for 27k drive away. If I wanted to get a 400hp Red or 400R car the prices seem to start at 43k From my limited research it seems that the only differences are that the 400r/Red Red runs more boost and a more aggressive tune. There are are turbine speed sensors on the turbos. Has 2 pumps for the water to air intercooler. Runs an engine oil cooler. I'm guessing that the exterior trims might look a little more sporty as well. I had a lazy look for upgrades to bridge the gap on z1motorsports They have kits that upgrade the water to air heat exchanger as well as the coolant pump which should give a non Red/400r better intercooling temps than the stock Red/400r. I added an engine oil cooler with a thermostat as well to try and make things as close as possible. Obviously the ECU is going to need a tickle. Having not done much in the way of research they also sell a ECU flashing tool with pre loaded tunes that are supposed to boost the non Red/400R by 100hp which adds 1k USD to the cost. The total cost of the parts @ the current time including shipping and taxes worked out to be $4350 AUD. Personally I would rather get the car tuned on a dyno which would probably add more cost Assuming the worst that you got a workshop to install the new parts I would guess no more than 5 hours would be required in the worst case @ 5 x $150 per hour = $750 So the total cost could be around $5100 So for easy number 5k + 27K = 32k I guess that would leave some change left over to swap out the open diff and fit a LSD Any thoughts?      
    • Right, not sure why I thought it to be a lean spike. It might be fixable with modern card-style hot film MAFs which have some design features to avoid counting reversion flow but I've never tried it myself.

    • I'm only going to hassle you for posting links to images. It's against my policy to click links that could be some nasty payload. Sadly, you need to make 9 more posts before you can just stick the images directly in a post, unless @PranK sees this and bends the rule for you.
    • Hello,new to the group, I bought a R32 from auction recently, wondering if anyone knows the cars history, seems to have the usual go fast bits on it, plan is to do an engine swap- add 2 extra cylinders and 1 extra turbo. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/i4rjmlzubjbwjtguh6f4s/IMG20241011140744.jpg?rlkey=q0lumm251377vknbqktfwrycq&st=7scvwx4e&dl=0 https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/ro24qmwzlczzlfsr4y05x/Screenshot_2024-10-10-10-49-23-90_9a2f5bb2149dae94cd1e190effc09b33.jpg?rlkey=oyguh26ttshlf04ccp48odf4v&st=xloae97b&dl=0   New to forums and posting pics, if links don't work, take it easy on me, 42yrs old and I tune carburettors!!
