was going to suggest an ecu manni, but if he is doing it so he can have a huge dose pipe on a standard gts-t then was going to say its not worth the money lol

edit: saw its a rb25 in a r32 so im guessing its not for a dose pipe haha

Atmo BOV brah. Dats wheer itz at

Im going for a link G4. Just because Power FC's for RB25's are impossible to come by in NZ for a good price.

Added bonus of being able to run a decent sounding BOV as apposed to the wheezing the stock one makes ;)

what do i have to do to get rid of the air flow meter?

Hi,

You have a few options that I can think of;

SMT6

or MAF translator PRO

Honestly, I've had some debatable success with both BUT........

The cost of either one has not made either a very logical way to attack the problem, so upgrading the MAF & correcting the voltage translations in Nistune has been my preffered way. Obviously this depends on Nistune support of your ECU.

Otherwise an Aftermarket system is the next most expensive option.

If you consider this is a primarily aussie forum, and in australia a car is not able to run an atmo-BOV and remain street-legal it's not really much of a consideration for most here :down:

    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
    • Is it alright to top up with just another green coolant?
