Hey guys

I've got an R34 GTR VSpec II and am about to do some mods to her.

R34 N1's

700cc Injectors

Walbro Pump

Apexi PFC

HKS Intake

Exhaust w/ High Flow cat

I have Z32 AFM's also which im trying to decide whether to fit or to sell, for the power those mods will produce (Hoping like 350 - 400rwhp) will i need Z32's? If not what kind of power will i need to be making to justify them?

Also, as far as the mods go, is there anything i have overlooked that will add easy power to the car that i should be considering? (Been told not to look at Cams or anything as the R34 GTR's don't really need them for that power, but i don't know how true this is)

Thanks guys!

Do the R34 GTR's come with N1's as standard?

Thinking about buys a 34 GTR ;)

No. Normal R34GTR turbos are ball bearing with ceramic tubines. The N1's have ball bearings and steel turbines, look very much like GT2530's and are capable of around the same power.

I would stick with what you have at the moment and see what afm voltages you get...if they are not close to going full scale I would leave them.

The reason for this is if you went for z32s and they were only measuring upto say 30-40% of full measurement scale or voltage, you are not using the full input resolution of the ECU and technically you are losing precision in your tune..The ECU uses an A-D converter to convert voltage into a digital number. Not analogue. So voltages are either rounded up or down to the nearest value. If the ECU has an input range of 0-5v and you are only using 2v of that range then between each corresponding digital value would be higher and the resulting error would be higher..

An analogy to this,

If wanted to measure the length of something that was 87mm in length and you had either:

1. A 1 metre ruler with 1cm divisions

or

2. A shorter ruler say 300mm long divided into 1mm increments

The best option would be option 2 for measuring the 87mm. The 1m ruler would see it as (9cm) 90mm and not 87mm

Hope this makes sense..

Oooops, sorry, mis-read it... HP..! i got 303.1Kw at wheels similar plus internals and flowed head, flashy filters etc, plus FPR plus good boost controller plus more too.

N1's are superb Road 'bines tho, stick with them. there are a few variants as well i am told too!!, but i unclear what the variants are.

Good luck, enjoy the results, its a good start u got going there.

My orig's maxed out at just short of 300RWKW. btw.

R34's have smaller turbo potential than orig GTR ones too. Get some Orig GTR32's, more power from them, but still ceramic exh impeller am afraid , but better turbos than R34's

Thanks a lot mate that does make sense (as an engineering student your analogy was right on the money to what i've been taught lol)

Thanks everyone else for your input also, ill leave the stockers and see how they fare and swap them out if necessary! Thanks!

sorry to hijac but...

Is this correct? Thought the standard 34 gtr turbos would flow more than the stocka 32's?

No standard 34 turbos are slightlty bigger than 32+33 and better because they are ball bearing but still have ceramic turbine wheels .

R32 - 0.42a/r compressor

R33 - 0.42a/r compressor

R34 - 0.53a/r compressor

http://homepage.ntlworld.com/tbroom/Turbos.htm

very useful for comparing stock turbochargers, lists all specs, wheels, trims, housing etc

Got that one paul, but the opinion here is stiil the best ones are the R32's.

R34 spool up quicker, but run out of steam. The Compressor wheel is smaller.

+1 :spank:

What topic was being discussed?

OH..AFM's....... :laughing-smiley-014:

RB20 or RB25 just plug in ...that is what I have gone with.

But if you got $$$...Nismo all the way..at least you have bragging rights...... :banana:

ive still got my stock afms... made 287.8kw @ all 4's... that was on 15psi.. after that i ran tad over 17psi which is slightly over 300kw @ all 4's and afrs were still good...

they look like stock afms anyways.. as were injectors and fuel pump lol.. the stock GTR gear is pretty serious stuff really

hmm sell the z32 afm's. sell your standard ones. use extra money for a haltec or my personal favorite (short of 10g plus motec) the new wolf v500.

just buy something that uses a map sensor and be done with it

MAP sensor and multiple throttle bodies are not a good mix for a road car.

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
