I don’t know how some people can get 200Kw at 4 wheels with Very light mods. Before I blew the GTR up, I had quite a few mods done, and only 2 weeks before the EC drive day I went to Croydon’s and did a dyno, 194Kw @ all 4.

If you have a R32 and you can switch to rear wheels only, 200Kw is achievable because of the lower losses. We hype up our KW regularly but ready I don’t think we get as much as we say we do.

Look at it this way.

On a GTR (R33) in 4WD you will loose about 40-45% of power from fly to wheels. Rear wheel only say about 25-30%. So!

350KW @ Fly - 42.5% drive train looses is 201Kw @4W

350KW @ Fly converted to horse's is 500HP.

The injectors / turbo's /airflow meter and fuel system are at its limits when it produces 500HP. So 200Kw is not as easy as it seams.

My 194Kw was with.

720mm x 360mm x 72mm FMIC

Apexi PFC

Bleed valve to 16LB

Steel shaft/wheel garret rebuilt turbo's

3" nismo exhaust and headers

Standard Box with high flow filter

I do have one reason why my run was low, my Platinum plugs were delaminated and my air filter was 20K Km old. I have had as high as 210Kw.

Since I blew the engine up I have a few other mods which will be doing.

Variable cams, dump pipe, high flowed 47.5 mm compressor turbo wheels, 550cc injectors, Apexi boost up kit to 17lb. I will be very happy if I produce 250Wk @all 4 which is about 600HP.

I hope this helps Ethan, and I open this to the floor for comment.

Oz GTR97V, I have to disagree with you here.... I believe that with a good turbo(s) back exhaust (3"+), twin pod air filters, power FC and good fuel you should be able to get to 200 4WKW. Standard turbos are Ok upto 14psi, and the 440cc injectors and pump can cope with ~16psi, and if you want a bit more, use ADJ CAM gears, they work wonders on RB26 motors.

Agreed, but replacing turbos, is no what I would call a "Basic Mod". To get Big HP from a GTR you need bigger turbo's.

Boost, exhaust, and pods are not enough to get a GTR much above 150Kw @4W on a GTR.

It is very easy to get caught up with big dyno figures (or low for that matter) but the relality is this-

Dyno's, particullaly chassis dyno's can vary greatly from one dyno to another.

I have seen variations with the same car of up to 30kw.

Same day, same car, same fuel batch - 3 different dyno's (long story)

What you should be more interested in is the percentage increase (or decreases) of the before and after modifications dyno run/tune.

i use this car for Targa Tasmainia every year the figures are correct it has been on three diffrent dynos in the last three years

Steve,

I assume your Turbo's were steel wheeled by Garrett? I just had mine redone due to the dropping of my inlet valve on number 3. (P.S. thanks for the short engine)

Various people have told me that the turbo's are good for 20Lb but talking to the guy in Garrett who rebuilds them he said they are only good for 3lb above stock standard boost on a GTR. That makes about 13Lb. What are your thoughts on the life span at 1.3 Bar? I ran 1.1 bar for 70,000Km and when he pulled them apart, except for the damage to the exhaust wheel he said they were in good condition.

hi oz gtr,get yourself a new tuner.

heres an example.

r32gtr

trust cooler,16psi,standard computer,exhaust,airfilters.

231 kw rear wheels.ran 11.8 at 121mph

i had similar on a r33gtr with power fc,made 255kw@4.

on 2 different dyno dynamics dyno.one was 255kw other was 251kw.

after being sold was redynoed on different dyno by new owner and made 254kw.

Vspec,

I actually used Karl, from down your way. We went to the tafe dyno and that is where we clocked the 210Kw. With the 440cc injectors they were 95% maxed and the fuel ratio was just right. I will be down in melb in the next couple of months, let me know who your tuner is and I will let him play with the car when Im down.

How much kw does a stock GTR have @ all 4 wheels? I'm guessing it would be less than 177, which is why I'm a little confused why EthanR33 is selling his car for one thats older, and has less power than the one he's currently got? Is it the 4 wheel traction your after or just the fact you WANT to own a GTR? I'm not having a go I'm just curious?

I guess it's the potential that it offers.

    • Howdy friends, So another weird one today, I was looking into replacing some broken clips holding the front grille for the R32 GTR (part number 01553-03831), and noticed the brackets which are supposed to hold the grille in place were also missing 😑. I do recall seeing this issue many years ago, but didn't fix it at the time. A quick look on eBay and I was able to find the genuine brackets, along with all the screws which suited the headlights (part numbers 26042-08U05,26092-08U05). Happy days!....  Once they arrived however there was an extra nut in the packaging which implied that there should also be a bolt or a stud, and sure enough, after a bit of searching I found this thread from 2013, and @Ants clearly shows a stud should be present. Reading around a bit more, it's possible the headlights on my car are the "povo pack" headlights as mentioned by @funkymonkey in this thread way back in 2008. This could explain why the studs are missing on my set of headlights. Looking at the headlight diagram I wasn't able to see a suitable part number for the stud itself. The headlight did indeed have a recess that looked like it would accept a stud, but interestingly no thread or anything obvious how the stud would be affixed to the headlight, I suspect it may have been glued in, press fit, or melted into the plastic at the factory. Another member may be able to clarify if they happen to have a genuine set of N1 headlamps. The only thing we have to work with within the recess is a keyway which likely is there to prevent the stud from rotating within the recess. In any case, back to 3D printing, I put together a model which acts like a pug with a friction fit inside this recess, making use of the keyway so it doesn't rotate while tightening a bolt. Printing in TPU will allow it to slightly swell making a nice snug fit without cracking the part. I've designed the adaptor it to accept an 20 mm M6 bolt (stainless with a cap head in my case), as opposed to the standard M5 stud and I made use of the standard galvanised split washer that came with the genuine brackets from Nissan. Once the bolt and screws were all in place, giving the bracket a gentle shake gave the classic "shaking the car" feeling, very solid, which gives me confidence this is going to be able to hold on much better than the janky solution which seems to have been here for the past decade or so. Overall I'm really pleased with how this turned out and maybe there are more people out there running these headlights without a centre stud at all!

    • Hey everyone, This is my first post apart of the introduction. I tried searching a bit on the forum but couldn't really get a straight answer. I got the car to my mechanic as I felt it being weak. It seems that it was missing on two cylinders due to the injectors. I had all my injectors clean and the car runs much better. The mechanic also confirmed my suspicions that the cat is clogged and needs to be tackled asap. The cat rattles a bit and the hot exhaust warning frequently lights up when driving after getting the injectors clean. In my introduction I was asked about what modification I might be interested in and mentioned a cat delete. From what I was told, this is not really beneficial on the RB20DE and there are more cons than pros.  Could perhaps anyone give some suggestions on what the best course of action would be since the current cat is toast and needs to be removed/replaced anyway? I can also sometimes smell a strong smell of fuel, but I'm not sure if this is related.
    • Hope the cans went down well at least 
    • 255 can't go wrong with the price.
    • When I was replacing my pump due to being stranded in the wrong state, I went with the Deatschwerks 320lph kit. It is a direct plug in to the stock wires, harness, everything. It comes with a plug... but you can plug the OEM plug directly into this thing. https://justjap.com/products/deatschwerks-dw300-fuel-pump-nissan-s13-silvia-r32-r33-r34-skyline-c34-stagea?currency=AUD Downside: Won't actually flow that much on boost if you want to push it on E85, but it's comparable to the 040/255 etc. Little more actually.
