Have been slowoly putting together a 10k GT-R mod package and have come to the tuning side of things. 10k got me a PAR gearbox, -5's, 550cc squirters, vipec, nismo pump, K&N panel filter, adj cam gears and half a tune at the local shop. ( the half a tune will be explained shortly)

i have attached a dyno graph of what this setup made and im not entirely happy with the results. I was informed by the tuner that he was not impressed by the car and that power was very umm, linear. I questioned why this would be and 4 days and 2k later, i have no answers and a bloody big headache. Now bieng in a semi regional part of the state of QLD means im basically 600km from anywhere so taking it south was always going to be a second option. Lesson learnt!

If any of the Guru's out there would like to shed some intrawebs mechanical knowledge on this and throw some ideas my way, ill happily take it on board and try it out as im a little angry and disheartned. AND, before i get grilled about going -5's, i went that option for future mod plans. The car drives average and seems to make about 4hp more than stock, even in the top end, has no coldstart properties whatsoever and seems to be running as rich as an arab oil baron at the moment so fire away!

I'd swap tuners, or swap cars. Owning a car like a GTR in a country town has its problems [i'm in the same jam]. You have to decide if you want to drive 2-300km and get a 'real' tune, or if you would rather live with an aussie V8???

I think that your mods should give good power and maybe more than what you already have, 280kw is OK, but a GTR with those mods should be over 300. So your tuner is the weak link in the chain.

As they say, only a poor workman blames his tools..............

What exhaust do you have? If it is a standard one then maybe that could be affecting final power?

      Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).

      Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers

      Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.

      Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.

      Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
