there is harm in replacing the hose . you might replace the one with the restrictor in it with a hose without the restrictor in it . =free boost .

anyone who is using the stock gauge can stop replying right now .

my stagea (neo motor) ran an unstable .8 bar with exhaust and intercooler upgrades . all this is common info .

the r34 does have a solenoid . i really dont know how this thread managed to dig up so many uneducated people all at once

as for the spool up its either the normal neo noise ( to do with plastic wheels) or you most likely have a slightly blown exhaust manifold gasket

ok yes my mates car is not a neo but its the only one to go by.

as for the hose before i do try getting a new one is it the one that goes from the T piece under the airbox snorkel and down to the round metal thing just ubove the turbo ?

if so what should i ask for when i go to replace it ? can it be purchased from autobarn?

would the exhaust manifold gasket leave some evidence if its leaking? iv looked and theres no oil or moister (u use to race a gemini in rally and thats how i could tell if there was a manafold leak if it wasnt obvious (but there was alot of dust to stick to and oil leaks) the r34 is spotless in the engin bay .

as i said earlyer im ner to turbos well anything fuel injected for that matter.

umm, we're sorry? any reason for that?

what's that supposed to mean? that the stock gauge doesn't work for mods? that it takes these upgrades to get to 11-12psi?

it was a team effort :)

damnit, such a noobie question lol: how do i tell :$

ok gees i read your post so wrong the first time and realy ripped through you , my bad i have to read the full post first sorry . i deleted it once i realized

um from what i can tell is the series 2 has a shitty bumber that covers most the places you would like all your air to go , and it has a two tone dash and console . your dash lights are orange at night .

i think they have solid lifter in the motor so i thort maybe its a series 2 thing to have 11 psi ?

lol, yes, to make it clear it was my question that was the noobie one.

i'll have to have a look, it sounds like the differences are painfully subtle if you haven't seen them before.

buuuuuuutt. i'm reasonably sure that its a 1999 model, and i read elsewhere the series 2's were 2000 onwards. I say reasonably because the guy i bought this from had no idea: he had tyre pressures less than you'd put in a camry (the car has 235 front 265 backs and 18" rims), different front tyres, different spacer WIDTHS on the front (not even kidding), illegally huge spacers on the back, 3" catback exhaust (not 4 as he said), he didn't know the kw (and was surprised to hear it), nor the turbo type (as in different to r33), thought the amp under the passenger seat was an additional computer... (takes a breath) need i continue?

so yeah, how do i check what year it is? I assume it's somewhere on the engine, or in the engine code?

that would be because most of are here to learn from people such as your self that have been there and experienced that !!. and we apreciate all the help we can get as that is what forums are for .

i will make sure when i change the acutator hose i make sure its the hose made for that job tanks for that advice

i tell you what ill look under the bonnet now and get back to you but a dead give away is the dash light when you turn them on they will be orange if its series 2 and white if its series 1 (unless hes put different colour leds in it lol.

...yeah thebottom of mine said R34-37-2A (not much help i suppose). But the import sticker said 06/99, which i assume is year?

the tc and hicas lights are orange, the speedo and tacho are white

it will be a series 1 then

so, bringing the thread back into line:

what should the stock psi be for an r34 gtt s1 or s2?

As far as i have been told by my mechanic who has done a fair few neos the R34 gtt (and the stagea) was released with a few different set ups for the engine tune, maybe it was bought stock at 11psi, but it probably just due to your mods and maybe a tune.mine Was running 5-7psi when i picked it up but had a tune and wound it up to 11psi, no mods at all other than that, bog stock and it pulls 161rwkw.

Also the standard gauge is in hhmg not kpa or psi as someone suggested.

Almost. The standard gauge is mmhg or millimetres of mercury. 7 on the gauge (which is 700) equals 13.5 psi

Thanks for the correction mate i typo'd haha, maybe im dyslexic?

    • Dear folks My family members have 4 different cars : Triton 2015 and Corolla 2011 and Mazda3 2012 and Hyundai Elantra 2014 Looking to buy engine oil funnel spill free What I found are are below  https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B0BBTTJNKX?ref=ppx_pt2_mob_b_prod_image&th=1 https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/145553221359?srsltid=AfmBOoqYBU6Ptw0LU_bAp_k67U3qkF97HHvePkA7iHZw8vUmiwoIRaRr https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09X23TCS5?th=1 Is there a funnel with attachment that fits most cars ? Don't mind to spend for a decent quality  Thx  
    • Stock ECU (or more accurately stock tune) absolutely refuses to go over 10psi and behaves like you have seen. The Nistune is the same if it is the stock tune. If the Nistune chip has been tuned, the resulting tune could be literally anything for any combination of parts. The Nistune just makes the stock ECU Tunable.
    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
