found a torrent for it from USA but I dont condone illegal downloads :down: ..lol, I guess after the show the sales of GTR's skyrocketed in states and the skyline is now half of Nissans yearly revenue ? who would have thought ..lol

maybe they should take over the Holden or Mitsu plant and build them here...lol

(as long as we dont loose jobs of course)

Now we need the new Supra,Honda NSX, RX8

I have seen this Doco already when I was overseas.

Its is very very good, really good run down on how they brought the new Nissan Skyline GTR to the market.

Best part is when they are testing the car and they are waiting for the Nissan boss to show up, he arrives then the test driver blast him around the track and on the 2nd lap he tells him to pull in because hes going to be sick!! LOL

If you have Nat GEO its a must watch.

    • Yep, the closest base tune available was for the GTT, I went with that and made all the logical changes I could find to convert it to Naturally Aspirated. It will rev fine in Neutral to redline but it will be cutting nearly 50% fuel the whole way.  If I let it tune the fuel map to start with that much less fuel it wont run right and has a hard time applying corrections.  These 50% cuts are with a fuel map already about half of what the GTT tune had.  I was having a whole lot of bogging when applying any throttle but seem to have fixed that for no load situations with very aggressive transient throttle settings. I made the corrections to my injectors with data I found for them online, FBCJC100 flowing 306cc.  I'll have to look to see if I can find the Cam section. I have the Bosch 4.9 from Haltech. My manifold pressure when watching it live is always in -5.9 psi/inHg
    • Hi My Tokico BM50 Brake master cylinder has a leak from the hole between the two outlets (M10x1) for brake pipes, I have attached a photo. Can anyone tell me what that hole is and what has failed to allow brake fluid to escape from it, I have looked on line and asked questions on UK forums but can not find the answer, if anyone can enlighten me I would be most grateful.
    • It will be a software setting. I don't believe many on here ever used AEM. And they're now a discontinued product,that's really hard to find any easy answers on. If it were Link or Haltech, someone would be able to just send you a ECU file though.
    • Yes sir am asking is there possible way from aem tuner from wiring pins 
    • Have you checked cam to crank timing and confirmed balancer marks are correct?
