Hey guys,

Just a quick question - I'm about to mod my R34 GTR, i have a fair bit of mechanical fitting experience (I know how to install injectors and basic bolt on gear onto a car) and am planning on fitting some parts to my car myself. I have the following -

R34 N1's

Walbo Fuel Pump (Intank Replacement)

700cc Sard Injectors

Gasket Kit

Intake Kit

Power FC / Hand Controller

Now apart from the PFC, am i able to install the other mods and then drive the car on the standard ECU without causing damage temporarily? I know pushing the car to the limits would be a stupid idea, but if i whack it all in and just baby it around will the car run and worse or better? I will be getting the PFC professionally tuned / installed and i wanted to drive the car to the tuner to save towing etc.

Thanks, Ben.

Well, yes. They will inject approx 700/440 = 60% more fuel than the stock ones for the same amount of time. You need to tell the ECU to send less fuel.

If you know your way around a PFC you can trim it but to be honest unless you are just going for a short trip to the workshop it is probably best not to.

Thanks for the advice, ill just put the injectors in down there its not that big of a job! I don't know my way around a PFC so ill leave that one to the experts, if i ended up damaging my motor i would be a sad sad man! lol

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
