Hi everyone,

After recently purchasing my '96 R33 with a 3" Turbo back exhaust, boxed POD, solenoid boost mod (7psi) stock SMIC and Turbo I'm concerned that I should get the car Dyno tuned. With these mods would it be wise to get the AFR's checked and a general tune done? or would it be a waste with only minor mods. Could anyone recommened a reputable workshop to go to on the Gold Coast ?

...Last thing I need is for something to go Bang!

Cheers.

Is it running the standard ECU or an aftermarket one?

As above, there's no real way to tune the stock ECU - plus it should be fine with those pretty common mods.

If it's aftermarket, alot have hand controllers which you can check knock readings and other info

a dyno is never a bad idea if you have the cash as it can give the mechanic and indicator if things are on there way out, eg fuel pump, blocked exhaust etc..

Thanks Fellas,

It is running the stock ECU no other management in place, and it runs without any issues. So a dyno would only be good to show numbers and look at the AFR's but there would be nothing that could be done as far as "tuning" or fixing the AFR's.

Puts my mind at ease about that issue then.

Cheers.

get a aftermarket stoichemeter (i cant spell it can you) mounted to an exhaust o2 sensor that will give good indication on how its going during driving im going to put one in my car, hooked up through the e11v2 though. your car would/should be fine but have terible fuel economy tho

go call Toshi, spend that O2 Wideband money on a remap that's actually worth something!

thats the shot i was just thinking for piece of mind for him. but if more mods are on the way than dont bother go get a ecu best thing i ever did aside from a turbo.

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
