Astonishing performance numbers, although being benchmarked against the 911T it was always going to rip off the line and handle well! Can't wait to read more about it...

But... that face! It honestly ain't that pretty! It's not as jaw-grindingly tough as it could have looked. Was the wind-tunnel to blame, or did an R33 Facial rob us the Nissan faithful of a potentially Aston-like persona and character... It's a bit of a shame considering how I'm sure it will go... It's still going to sound phenomenal and have a menacing presence, but.... yeah... looks count for something don't they!?!

I also dont really like the idea of the high-spec, low-spec GTR's. IMO it should all be high spec. It is a GTR anyway.

But I guess they have to make the car appealing to rich businessmen too with the lower end, higher luxury spec.

I think I need some tissues...

For 80k, that's a mega bargin considering the performance figures and what's it's competing against.

I'll still hold off my judgement until I actually see it in the flesh and drive one but it's certainly got itself onto my "I want" list.

Too many buttons on the steering wheel but I like the leather, satnav screen and all the comfy bits cosidering it's supposedly a sub 12 sec car.

DSG style box also means that the Mrs can drive it and now THERE'S a selling point :w00t:

i sat there for 5 mins tryin to figure out how you'd get the passenger that sits behind the driver in... cos we all know the driver seat NEVER moves... it just f**ks with the zen. If they were to go in thru the passenger side they'd have to jump over that centre console thing.

reminds me of a Mazda Cosmo backseat.

you are missing the point funkeh, no one is ever meant to be in the back seat. lol. unless you're back there getting the sword shined... :w00t:

and risk spilling the polish onto the alcantara? nevar!

    • @Haggerty this is your red flag. In MAP based ECU's the Manifold pressure X RPM calculation is how the engine knows it is actually...running/going through ANY load. You are confusing the term 'base map' with your base VE/Fuel table. When most people say 'base map' they mean the stock entire tune shipped with the ECU, hopefully aimed at a specific car/setup to use as a base for beginning to tune your specific car. Haltech has a lot of documentation (or at least they used to, I expect it to be better now). Read it voraciously.
    • I saw you mention this earlier and it raised a red flag, but I couldn't believe it was real. Yes, the vacuum signal should vary. It is the one and only load signal from the engine to the ECU, and it MUST vary. It is either not connected or is badly f**ked up in some way.
    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
