Hi,

I have a stock standard R34 GTT with 165kwatw (dynoed!).

I have myself a nice Apexi hybrid intercooler, adjustable exhaust cam wheel, HKS EVC boost controler, full 100k belt kit and water pump to go in (may as well get it all done at once!).

I am getting a full turbo back exhaust and in box filter in the next few weeks too. I am after around 200 - 210kw at the wheels for now before any major future mods like a turbo change etc. And I want to keep fuel economy OK too.

My question is which piggy back computer is recommended on a GTT to manage the mods mentioned? Emanage sounds difficult to setup on a R34 neo. A $1500 PFC is a bit out of my budget at the moment, unless you can convince me otherwise that with the mods above its worth it over say a Apexi SAFC Neo?

Also will I need a adjustable FPR with this setup? :)

PFC or emanage ultimate would most prob be the best bet, have used a PFC and was great, plug it in and away you go. i havnt used a emange but have read alot of good things with them. a PFC is about the only plug n play ECU for R34 GTT, i can think of. do a search for R34 GTT ECU or stuff similar and have a read. I did some reading for about 2 weeks and still didnt work out what i wanted. But a Microtech come up cheap, so i got that.

yeah but PFC is $1500 plus tuning of another $600 (yeah plug and play my ass!).

I am heading towards a SAFCII as it is:

Cheap

Anyone can tune it

I cant afford a PFC

I can resell it with no drama

It has a knock sensor built in

Anyone had any dramas with a SAFC on a RB25DET Neo engine?

    • I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.
    • Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
    • Thanks @jtha7 I will have a look around tomorrow but it is a prick of a spot. These are some photos i tried taking 
    • I take it that the knock retard is from bearings tapping a little tune? Thicker oil is a fragile bandaid. You need a much bigger oil cooler and probably the bigger pump being discussed.
    • Hi @Chupapy i had several leaks from coolant pipes being corroded, i also had one leak on back of the head onto transmission. For me that leak was from the turbo water line. Follow the line to the back of the head The hose and metal pipe had perished these are the best pics I took of it at the time
