My Non V-spec R34 has the nismo version 2 MDF and i can see the intake and exhaust temp.. Not too sure wheree the sensor is located tho...

Cheers.

Matt

There are temp sensors located in the drivers side of the intercooler core, and the dump pipe just before the front pipe flange. They only provide signals for the MFD and dont link into the ecu.

The nismo upgrade kits do come with extra sensors, too depending on what type/version. Like 2 bar reading map sensor, instead of 1.2bar.

Also, I'm going to add upgraded swaybars to my list :P.

Thanks! Got an e boost street, black box. Nice and compact.

Damn you Steve-o!! My R32 would of been mad fun on texi!

A couple of pics when I was parked at texi. Surprise upgrade visually is the nismo sideskirt extensions that help fatten car lol.

Mate of mine painted em for me after I fixed em up and got 2 pac dg white colour matched.

Got the wastegate actuators and fitted em up. Was a real pain to do as there is no room, but all good now.

Also got a hold of a nismo cat converter to help free up the exhaust a bit more. I'll fit it up when I can be bothered crawling under the car again.

Sway bars have been ordered in too. :P

why not just get a standard high flow cat from ebay etc? like a 120CPI?

There is a place for EBay parts.... and they call them GTST's.

Nobody in their right mind puts ebay parts on their GTR(unless its wearing a genuine Nismo, or equalivent brand name).

Can i ask, is it still wearing TE-37 look a like ROTA's, how are those.... lot of people say "mean" things about ROTA wheels... :thumbsup:

Will be interested !!!!

but dam they look the bizzz

I don't usually get ebay gear, just my choice.

I've had a metal cat (barrel type) fall to bits on my last car, and it was a well known one too. Don't think an ebay one would handle it!

Yep HKS actuators. Came with crush washers, zip ties, hose, t piece, instructions and yellow jap stickers lol.

I'm very happy with the Rota's, considering they only cost me $1300, not including tyres. Would of liked more dish, and they would look better if I lowered the car :P

I'd love some advans or similar, but don't have $3800+ handy :laugh:

The only thing I had to get was hub rings to center the wheels on the hub. If the stock wheels had an offset of +12 I wouldn't need the rota's!

Fitted the sway bars this weekend, less roll now, and one of the guys thought I had aftermarket coilovers lol.

Nismo cat is in. You don't notice how bad the compliance/high flows are until you get a better cat!

Got a brand new HKS High power silent stainless steel exhaust and fitted that too, so shiny! Now there is no more kinked bend piping, crappy resonators and horrible drone.

It is nice and quiet when you want it to be and has a great note when the go pedal is pushed.

It all bolted up sweet and everything clears, no more exhaust hitting the rear diffuser either.

Now the engine is willing to rev out a lot more. Me thinks it needs a dyno tune to 'optimise' the setup! Will soon be reaching the limits of stock fuel injectors and AFM's.

Also got a brake master cylinder stopper to fit at some point.

Next on the list once my wallet recovers is probably rego.

Still have to get:

Nismo MFD upgrade

New front rotors

fire extinguisher

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
