Finally In the game! 91 gtr 500+ whp

[mitch32]

Don't get stance coilovers, your JIC will handle better. JIC's are amazing coilovers. For lower ride height you can try DG-5, HKS, Aragosta, Ohlins... there are a lot of different companies.

Also not to hate or anything but over 500whp on -7 is pretty close to impossible on regular gas. Whoever told you 500whp+ probably didn't have their dyno calibrated properly. Power isn't as important as how the car drives. I made 470whp and raced other cars that made 460-480whp (different tuner, and different dyno) and my car was faster. I've also raced cars with less power and they were faster. The only real test is the 1/4 mile, if you trap a speed of 130mph in a gtr then your car makes 500whp or more. Hub dynos over inflate numbers, Nelson on this forum made like 300whp on a dynapak and couldn't break traction, then he tuned on a mustang and made 220whp and broke traction in ever gear (80whp less and the car was a bomb, does that make sense?)

Over 500whp on a stock rb26 is possible, it'll hold up forsure as long as its in good shape. Overfill your oil on track days, and get an oil cooler... you should never have issues if its in decent shape. The mileage isn't important, your car is super clean so you'll be fine.

Remember.... Fast, Reliable, Cheap... you can only pick 2.

What dynos most accurate?

no such thing as "accurate" its more a matter of realism vs inflation. but lets not start a dyno comparison on his thread.

[Messiahlee]

So wouldn't realism and accurate be the same thing?
Anyway I'm sure car
Makes alot of power.

Dyno's need to be calibrated to altitude above sea level, humidity, temperature, and a bunch of other factors. By fooling with these corrections you can manipulate the horsepower. I knew of a dyno in Toronto which was set to an altitude of -2000feet below sealevel so that cars were picking up 100WHP

[cortexx]

now thats funny , 100whp without even starting the engine ( i know this isnt possible but still is funny)

[LuckyGTR]

nice car congrats

[GTR203]

thanks guys dyno sheets are about a year old and done at a shop on the other side of my country. getting everything squared away body wise suspension wise ect ect this winter going full out build on it. To be honest probably going big single, 2.8, new cam setup ect we will see when it happens this winter.

as a compasion my m3 is a dinan with a bunch of upgrades and has around 375 crank hp. the gtr makes my m3 feel like a 91 civic 1.5. thats all I can go by as of right now.

haha that happened to my friend when he was getting his civic dynoed, reported a max of 100hp, needless to say he was pissed until the tuner discoved the altitude wasnt set

Congrats on the new ride, it's always an adventure doing rebuilds have a game plan an KNOW what you want an how you want your car to run prior to starting thats my #1 suggestion for you. Enjoy your rebuild.

Another update been working like crazy on the car had the water pump shatter on me so replaced with a new n1 unit while I was at it went with a alum rad with some slim fans, cleaning up the bay more and more still have to put the batt in the trunk and clean some more wiring up got the wheels mounted , redid my brakes with all mintex red pads and painted them painted a bunch of stuff rewired half the crap that was in the interior and more polishing. valve covers were painted r34 red and paint didn't come out right so im polishing them now they are mid way being done. Got on a website albeit its were I work so it doesn't count but everyone can check it out at www.fcpimport.com ! Then the other night my back window gets shattered so im in the process of getting a replacement. heres a little pic timeline of the progress and one of the before and after of the engine bay as it stands now.



















and what I come home to find

[NeptuneGTR]

That sucks man, people can be so stupid

[Oakville]

Shitty about the window,

do you have any more photos of the car with those enkeis mounted? they look beautiful
