Hey everyone, New to the site and Im pretty keen on buying an r34 gt-t. Just wanting to know a bit more about them, but im mainly interested in the computer, what can be done with the stock one as far as tuning goes? can it be re mapped like the subaru wrx ecu's can? do they have any safety features built into them? (ie boost limit and such) or is it just better to get an after market comp? Im not looking to be the fastest guy on the street, Just a car that can thow you back in the seat when you want it to but still be pretty good and reliable as a daily. Cheers

Get a nistune board put it, so you can edit and log your tune is the cheapest and the best as you retain your factory ecu.

A good feature is the knock map, this map will override the map you have your car tuned on.. if knock is present, just has a duplicate map that has 4deg of timing take. Out across the board good safety feature

+11ty for Nistune - best ECU option for the majority of mods out there, but still a great option for turbo upgrades etc.

you keep all the factory goodness like cold start, knock sensors etc but have full live tuning functionality as well and most places can tune these too, and they're not that expensive either

so in terms of safety features, it's better than a power fc etc... but the tuner would be your best safety feature by far.

i'm running a Nistune and E85 or BP98, no dramas at all, great bit of kit

      I mean, I got two VASS engineers to refuse to cert my own coilovers stating those very laws. Appendix B makes it pretty clear what it considers 'Variable Suspension' to be. In my lived experience they can't certify something that isn't actually in the list as something that requires certification. In the VASS engineering checklist they have to complete (LS3/NCOP11) and sign on there is nothing there. All the references inside NCOP11 state that if it's variable by the driver that height needs to maintain 100mm while the car is in motion. It states the car is lowered lowering blocks and other types of things are acceptable. Dialling out a shock is about as 'user adjustable' as changing any other suspension component lol. I wanted to have it signed off to dissuade HWP and RWC testers to state the suspension is legal to avoid having this discussion with them. The real problem is that Police and RWC/Pink/Blue slip people will say it needs engineering, and the engineers will state it doesn't need engineering. It is hugely irritating when aforementioned people get all "i know the rules mate feck off" when they don't, and the actual engineers are pleasant as all hell and do know the rules. Cars failing RWC for things that aren't listed in the RWC requirements is another thing here entirely!

      Best place to order Authetic R32 Parts in Japan

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.

      Ethanol Content Sensor - Always at 11%?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.

      No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
