I'd just like to take the time to thank all the fellas at Racepace for spending the time to fix my car :P. Car has never run as well before, sooo happy with how it's running! I had a problem with really high idle, I knew it had something to do with the idle control valves but daren't touch them on an RB26 caues the plenum is in the way. They took the manifold off and then the control valves but there was nothing wrong with them, but they had the sense to test the powersupply too! This turned out to be the problem. I enjoy driving the car so much more now :/. Cheers fellas!

By the way, I got some gauges fitted and they found and rewired a sender unit for an air/fuel gauge. I presume the car had the guage once (it has a gauge holder) but was taken during compliance or something. The box is sort of tan or beige with "GReddy Air/Fuel Data Link Sender" which looks similar to the pair of GReddy warning guages had installed for oil press and temp. On the back it has "NAF03960". Where would be a good place to ask about precisely which guage belongs with that sender? I presume it is one of these: http://www.nolimitmotorsport.com/greddy/gauges.html but maybe it is something older?

they might refer to changing spark plugs and doing a major service as a tune up..

as Ash said you can only play with the CAS on the cars with standard ECUs..

years ago when my car was standard, i did have racepace Benno fiddle with the CAS on the dyno, with new plugs, the car went from 145rwks to 165..

so in my case it was well worth the dyno time, obviously reacted to the adjustment for one reason or another..

Racepace are great but i feel intimidated going there.

With all the monster GTR's left,right and centre my nimble R32 gtst doesnt belong there :D

Without going into too much detail SS8_Gohan, i think they specialize more into heavy modifications instead of regular checkups.

but i could be wrong :P Wouldnt mind being proven wrong :P

No,

They do regular check up as well, things like before you go tracking.......drag......etc but yeah regular check up can be done pretty much by any recommended work shops and for references, beside from Racepace, we also go to Recustoms.

so when someone says, without an a/m ecu, i think me car needs a tune, what the hell are they referring too??

like the ultra tune mob will advertise an EFI tune, etc...

Ultra Tunes are specialise in tunning FORD and HOLDEN, those cars are EFI equiped :laughing-smiley-014: !

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
