im gonna be using a r32 ecu with nistune in my r33 gtst.

with the standard ecu without vct im told it runs like ass, would this be the same with a tuned r32 ecu? basic mods with a highflowed turbo so should see 200-230kw

ive bought the jaycar frequency switch to control the vct but apparently it wont switch the vct on until revs drop below what the minimum is set to so its pretty much useless. so the next best option to get the vct working is an MSD window switch which apparently works perfectly. but its gonna cost around $300 due to our shitty dollar and there on backorder from the USA and cant get any in for a few months - yeah real helpful. btw this was trying to buy through Rocket Industries

Why didn't you use the Z32 ECU from the 300zx? VCT can be used then

i was told i could just use the jaycar switch which was less then $40 but i found out the hard way u cant

at the time it seemed easier then modifying the injector loom and messing round with the tps.

if i were to do it again id go down the 300zx ecu path but ive already go the ecu and nistune board :cool:

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the 2025 build re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I quite rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
