hi iv tryed all the wreckers in my area and no one will sell an actuator without the turbo

what my problem is im about to put on a 3" tubo back exhaust but for some reason the owner in japan put a 12psi actuator on so if i put the exhaust on my turbo will be booting too high for it to handle,

does anyone have or know of someone that has an r34 gtt standard turbo actuator that i can buy ?????, oh yeah im melbourne area !!

thanks for you help

Well i have one of Stagea S2 Neo motor,so if that`s any help ,iaam in Perth so if you want it let me KNOW ,

cheer`s Chuckie.

i dont need the motor but if your willing to sell me the turbo actuator ?? that will be great

couldnt you just put in a boost controller?

now my mate sugested that but my actuator is set to 12psi and it will go up to 14 psi when the exhaust goes on (well thats the general outcome with people on this site.but i was under the impressiong boost controller can only up the boost not drop it ???

People who put R32 (10psi) actuators on their R34 typically have their boost sit rock-solid on 10psi, so not sure that's true. I suspect it's more of a case with the factory 5psi actuators being overcome by the extra flow of a new exhaust which is why they flow higher, but maybe I'm wrong.

I'd be sticking with the current actuator and seeing how you go - replace it if it becomes an issue.

(And yes, boost controllers can only go as low as the wastegate actuator is)

yeah im going to do that i just want one spare (i know if its boosting to high just dont put the foot down all the way ) so if its too high i can take it easy untill i replace the actuator (if it changes boost )

thanks for the advice people hopefull i can still get hold of one (just incase )

just to be clear

R32 GTST actuator is 12psi

R33 GTST Manual actuator is 7psi

R33 GTST Auto actuator is 5psi

so fare chance i have a R32 GTST actuator at 12psi

so is it un common for a car in japan to have an upgraded actuator but not turbo ??

only reason i ask is because i havent pulled the pipe off to see ?

the common actuator upgrade we see is the R33 GTST with R32 actuator

thats the only common actuator change that im aware of

ie you wouldnt fit a 16psi actuator to R33 GTST turbo as the turbo cant safely flow that much

also look for std actuator specs for BNR34 and ER34 if anyone can measure/check or confirm them ?

    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
    • Place the new daughterboard in the case and mount it using the 3 small black rivets provided, and reconnect the 3 factory ribbon cables to the new board Then, use the 3 piggyback cables from the daughterboard into the factory board on top (there are stand offs in the case to keep them apart. and remember to reconnect the antenna and rear cover fan wires. 1 screw to hold the motherboard in place. Before closing the case, make a hole in the sticker covering a hole in the case and run the cable for the android unit into the plug there. The video forgot this step, so did I, so will you probably. Then redo the 4 screws on back, 2 each top and bottom, 3 each side and put the 2 brackets back on.....all ready to go and not that tricky really.
