Hello all, I have spent the last couple of years slowly building a website designed to help people new to the Nissan Skyline. It includes specifications and tuning guides for turbo versions of skylines from the R32 onwards.

I have also including sections covering the following

turbo upgrade specs

AFM specs

cam specs

HICAS, ATTESSA, NVCS and how these systems work

40 imbedded videos of the best skyline clips I could find

wallpapers

history of modifications to my own car

plus much more

I am updating the website regularly so feel free to bookmark the page. If you have any ideas or notice mistakes (other than spelling and grammar) please fell free to pm me.

Hope you find it useful

cheers

nice one mate, was very interesting to read.

one question though... if you put a manual boost controller, what do you have to do to disable that dual stage boost control thing you were talking about??

On the passangers side stut tower there is a solenoid with 2 hoses and 2 wires comming out of it.

Remove the hose that goes to the wastegate actuator and the hose connected to the nipple on the intercooler piping. I think its the top one on the solenoid but I cant remember.

Remove the two wires via the plug on the solenoid

Install a new hose from the actuator straight to the nipple on the intercooler piping.

You have now removed the two stage boost control and will be running 5 psi throughout the rev range.

You need to cut the new hose to install the manual boost controller.

So you will end up with the hose comming of the piping to the boost controller then to the actualtor.

Pictures would explain this better but I dont have any a search on these might be helpful to

cheers

thats some good stuff, and noob will benifit greatly.

are you 100% sure removing the boost restrictor gets you 1 bar?

I cant say I have done it myself but several people around the forum have done it and run 1 bar

Mad site! Helping me out at the moment, when im looking at the basic mods for my car.

However, i must ask a question - is it more worth getting a pod filter or a FMIC for the maximum gains? I know getting both will def get me a canary (specially after i get the exhaust put on)

Any suggestions?

I have just added a Tech Resources section this contains turbo specs with power outputs and AFM information. This section will soon contain injector information and a unit conversion tool.

Emsta an intercooler will give you better results

I see you have a r33 gtst id suggest upgrading to a R34 GT-T intercooler if you can get your hands on one efficient to 200rwkw.

If you plan on up-grading your turbo down the track you may need something bigger. Some brand name intercoolers (blitz is one I think) use a piping route which still allows you to still use the intake snorkel (they dont have the pipe running over the front of your engine) in this case you just need to put a high flow panel filter in your airbox. I only installed a pod and CAI because my piping was in the way of the snorkel.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies.

      R33 GTR running -9 with no tune

      By Duncan · Posted

      Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.

      Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it

      Coolant leak?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground

      Coolant leak?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
