why not get an ATI 4870 video card?

Alright plans have slightly changed after a few discussions about it all :)

Case + PSU : Antec NSK4000 @ $65 and either Seasonic PSR550+ @ 119 or antic of the Antec TP PSU

M’Board : Gigabyte EP45T-UD3LR @ 131

CPU : E8500 at 225 or E8400 at 207

GPU : either 4850 at 139 or 4870 at 159

Monitor : Asus 23” VH232T 2ms at 219

RAM : G.Skill-NT 4GB DDR3 at 103

HDD : Hitachi 1TB at 97

OS : Win7 OEM for about 119

DVD : Pioneer 218 at 49

Software : Office Pack

This sound alright?

Get the 4870, you can crank up the E8400 pretty easy even on the stock cooler, with something better you could run it all the time at around 3.8-4GHz, 8500 will do it easier.

FYI those 512 4870 are 'while stocks last' iirc, I picked up the last one at Clayton the other day.

    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
