Hey people!

Car - R34 GT-T 1998 Manual Coupe - 92,000 KM'S

Figured i would throw up the graphs as some of you have been asking to see, got the car back saturday from Trent & Cat @ Status tuning :).

Give you a little run down:

Car was imported (im first owner in aus) with japcars had full 100,000km service. completely stock bar side skirts & turbo timer.

Mods:

Full custom 3" Turbo back exhaust: Opel bell mouth dump, high flow cat, hotdog style muffler then to oval shape with twin 3" tip, mounted as high as possible for maximum clearance.. looks completely stock to cops :) and has a nice note whilst been fine for DB rating

Front mount cooler: Stealth return flow style front mount cooler, completely legal to install no cutting required using the stock piping.

Panel filter: Impul sports panel filter... im in vic so no pod with FMIC.

Splitfire coilpacks: From day one i had coilpack issues instaleld the split fires car ran like new no issues at all.

Turbosmart bleeder: Installed & tuned on the tuning day graph will show settings.

Fuel pump: Bosch 040 fuel pump, installed on the tuning day by status.

Nistune Chip: Status style piggy back nistune chip installed & full tune.

General service with platinum spark plugs: Wanted a second opinion on the work done at japcars & got them to check out the work done on the 100,000 service... everything was fine but replaced the timing belt as it was making winey noise... :banana:

All work was done through Auto Indulgence with Status installing the bleed valve/pump/nistune and full tune.

From day one i told them i wanted a daily driver that wont attract cops and will have some go about it and 200 rwkw sounded nice :ermm: and this is what i have! and i am one very happy customer. Anyone having doubts of doing the same thing dont. Its not expensive and wont cause u big hastles in the long run and u have a nice looking car to boot!

See attachments for the dyno: Graphs using status dyno and trents tuning/recommendations

Im using the stock clutch which is probly 5 mins away from dying i will update a proper graph at a shootout once i replace the clutch / bearings but this is a good indication of what u can do with a legal (bar the valve) 200rwkw street car :P!!!

Excuse the scans look hard for the before/after lines as they are faded.

Any questions or pricing or contacts feel free to MSG me and ill help where i can :)

oh and ill stick up photos of the cooler/exhaust when i can :)

thanks to all involved and who helpd me with my many noob questions after months / years of research im very happy :(

Well done Adrian!

Look like the results turned out similar to what you want.

You might want to give it a run down at the RE Customs Dyno Day which is coming up next month (June) and see the results.

yeah just a nistune chip (they are a piggy back not a full install so not illegal and cops cant find them with a on the spot inspection) and tuned by status :thumbsup:

no, its still illegal...

all modified boards (nistune), piggybacks (safc, sitc, emanage etc) and full ecu's are 100% illegal

somehow i doubt he wants to see his car run a 170rwkw :banana:

Hey glad your enjoying it, the ecu is effectively a stand alone too, lots more sophisticated than a piggy back :P you should not outgrow it for a long time. In regards to illegal im not sure what you were told regrding the nistune but unfortunately all mods are illegal but we can slip through with the nistune as ive yet to have one fail epa testing and it comes up std when tested via consult.

in fact we just sent a 380awkw GTR through epa testing and it passed with flying colours, i have just under gone a 2500 dollar upgrade to the lastest motec AFR setup and will soon be doing a 5 gas upgrade aswell so hopefully we will do alot more EPA aproved tuning for variuos manufacturers and customers who are willing to pay the testing costs @ epa.

(excuse spelling and grammar just got all my wisdom teeth pullled and im still half cut on drugs)

Trent could you confirm if you have ever wired a R34 neo ecu into an s1 33 gtst non ABS?

I am trying to find a way around using either a PFC ($$) or a Z32 ecu (I have been told running it is somewhat buggy).

I just finished wiring an S13 redtop into an S14.. harness is the original S14 item as finding all the ABS and parker wiring through it was too much of a mission. I changed the plugs on the motor side and then changed the ecu plug to the S13 item. Am sort of considering if this would be the same task on an R33 to R34..

Seeing as the ECU is different Im wondering if the sensors and accessories on the motor side are also different, and hoping you may have experience in this.

Sorry for the thread hi-jack, although I do feel this is valuable information and is sure to hit some search results.

Cheers

use the r34 ecu, easier all round.

    • Yup. You can get creative and make a sort of "bracket" with cable ties. Put 2 around the sender with a third passing underneath them strapped down against the sender. Then that third one is able to be passed through some hole at right angles to the orientation of the sender. Or some variation on the theme. Yes.... ummm, with caveats? I mean, the sender is BSP and you would likely have AN stuff on the hose, so yes, there would be the adapter you mention. But the block end will either be 1/8 NPT if that thread is still OK in there, or you can drill and tap it out to 1/4 BSP or NPT and use appropriate adapter there. As it stands, your mention of 1/8 BSPT male seems... wrong for the 1/8 NPT female it has to go into. The hose will be better, because even with the bush, the mass of the sender will be "hanging" off a hard threaded connection and will add some stress/strain to that. It might fail in the future. The hose eliminates almost all such risk - but adds in several more threaded connections to leak from! It really should be tapered, but it looks very long in that photo with no taper visible. If you have it in hand you should be able to see if it tapered or not. There technically is no possibility of a mechanical seal with a parallel male in a parallel female, so it is hard to believe that it is parallel male, but weirder things have happened. Maybe it's meant to seat on some surface when screwed in on the original installation? Anyway, at that thread size, parallel in parallel, with tape and goop, will seal just fine.
    • How do you propose I cable tie this: To something securely? Is it really just a case of finding a couple of holes and ziptying it there so it never goes flying or starts dangling around, more or less? Then run a 1/8 BSP Female to [hose adapter of choice?/AN?] and then the opposing fitting at the bush-into-oil-block end? being the hose-into-realistically likely a 1/8 BSPT male) Is this going to provide any real benefit over using a stainless/steel 1/4 to 1/8 BSPT reducing bush? I am making the assumption the OEM sender is BSPT not BSPP/BSP
    • I fashioned a ramp out of a couple of pieces of 140x35 lumber, to get the bumper up slightly, and then one of these is what I use
    • I wouldn't worry about dissimilar metal corrosion, should you just buy/make a steel replacement. There will be thread tape and sealant compound between the metals. The few little spots where they touch each other will be deep inside the joint, unable to get wet. And the alloy block is much much larger than a small steel fitting, so there is plenty of "sacrificial" capacity there. Any bush you put in there will be dissimilar anyway. Either steel or brass. Maybe stainless. All of them are different to the other parts in the chain. But what I said above still applies.
    • You are all good then, I didn't realise the port was in a part you can (have!) remove. Just pull the broken part out, clean it and the threads should be fine. Yes, the whole point about remote mounting is it takes almost all of the vibration out via the flexible hose. You just need a convenient chassis point and a cable tie or 3.
