Can't agree more, gotta say loveed the twin exhaust setup on the white GTR , very curious on what make it was...as the sound that come out was sex to the ears...

The exhaust on the white 34 GTR are brand Kakimoto exhaust but why they are so loud is because each turbo has its own seperate complete exhaust compared to normal GTR exhaust as after the dump pipes they join up and make 1 exhaust

You're very kind Liam. Hope you had a great day! I rolled up at about 11 thinking that all the tarmac spots would surely be taken. Our family only wished to stay for a couple of hours because Maria wa

Twins shouldn't make things louder just because they're twins. It's exactly the same as any other exhaust- it's up to the muffling capability of the mufflers/resonators. If you have twins but each pipe goes through a really quiet muffler they'll be quiet too.

Get this, driving down Forest rd Hurstville near KFC on Sunday night in my babe black 32 gtst after returning the video and the next I know this yellow flash flew past me which rocked my car like mini "Larry". When I got back on 2 wheels it was yellow R34 gtr (AUG-88*) with large wing I'm note sure what spec this car is. However, I got him at the lights Forest rd and King Georges pulled up next him to compliment his beast but dude turned his head away and pretended I don't exist what a Gerk :D , he does not deserve that car. I have seen the car parked around Hurstville area. That 34 is epitome of a sport car tough.

Actually, it didn't sound that loud from our car when it passed us. Only when it was gunned in the underpass, to which I thought it sounded bloody fantastic. A deep bellow turning it a high pitched scream, just like how a super car should sound, and IMO sounds better then the holden and ford V8's.

Also from what I understand a twin system should be quiter under cruising conditions, as it reduces the resonance compared to a big cannon system.

Spotted gunmetal grey Cefiro AWx.xxx somthing like that.

was behind me all the way from Ashfield Bunnings till we got on to Gladesville bridge.

Had IS MOTORSPORT sticker on the front window.. and looked to have flared guards.. ???

Once on the bridge, I got up to about 75-80km's as fast as I could only to hear a distinct rb26 howl as a grey blur went past me..

:huh:

angry, angry car..

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.

      This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).

      I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.

      You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?

      Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
