Time for another tuning results thread.

I approached Jim at CRD to tune my car following recent work and I an extremely happy with his efforts

The results shown below are based on a built RB26 with all the fruit, Tomei 260 degree Poncams and HKS GT-SS turbos

I will let the pictures below tell the story

The cars response is very good, its very agile around town and the exhaust note is simply awesome.

I can only say I am very pleased with the results

Good results nick.

Post up the torque curve why dont ya :D

From the boost curve, you're making 21.5-22 psi @ 4400 rpm ? Thats pretty good.

It will be interesting to see what you end up pulling at wsid this week. Hope it bloody well doesnt rain. If it does, I will join you next week and we can race together :D

I take it this is awkw?

Very nice result.

Intersting to see your boost hit 21 and drop back down to 20 - what boost controller are you using? Is it set to 20 and just spikes to 21?

What rpm are you hitting 1bar boost (just want to compare to williamsf1 and tommy)...

Will be interesting to see how you go at the drag strip... are you going to take this on the real (circuit) track? :D

can't wait till i get my car back in a couple of weeks or so. I'm leaving stock cams in for now, see how they cope.

Ferni, yep thats awkw

The car made 320awkw but was brought back down a tad for the final run - my request was reliability and safety rather than absolute peak power

CRD believes that my cat is causing some problems and should be replaced with a better flowing unit, which could see a gain of another 10-15 awkw

I have been itching to take the GTR on a track for a long long time now, so I will fit my oil cooler and get out there!

Boost controller is the HKS EVC 5

Nick

Nice work. Glad Jim sorted it all out for you. Too bad I didnt stick around at Croydon to see the final run but after eating maccas I was feeling like shit (big suprise!).

I have doubts about my own cat after the weekend and will be sourcing one of those phat Catco ones which look like Magic cats from Batmbl i think.

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
