r32 gtst is 10 psi. i know because i have one.

r33 gtst and r34 gtt is 5 psi. i know because i have one. if the 33 and 34 was 7 psi, you could never have 5psi below 4500rpm as is the factory setup.

A 3rd option is to install a different wastgate actuator and the good news is the R32GTST item is exactly the same as the R34 except the spring inside is set for 10psi. R32 actuators can be hard to find but I think it’s the best option for this level of modification as boost spikes and boost creep are eliminated.

could be incorrect though

my numbers are straight off the R32 and R33 service manuals

they indicate the minimum boost pressure before the actuator will start to open, that is, the minimum possible boost

HR32 is 12psi

R33 gtst AUTO is 5psi with 2psi bleed at 4500rpm by std solenoid, but base actuator is 5psi

R33 gtst MANUAL is 7psi with 2psi bleed at 4500rpm by std solenoid, but base actuator is 7psi

the service manuals could be wrong, but it is unlikely

didn't the rb25det and rb20det's have different actuators?

I'll be doing the same as you soon maddowse, did you find one?

yes i got it all done today !! i put new spark plugs in added the 3" bellmouth dump pipe and 3" cosco cat ,

also installed a blitz intercooler.

OK for starters i don't need to change the actuator as the boost didn't climb at all it was showing 12.5 on the guage before i installed everything and now its solid on 12psi .

the car now runs smoother (spark plugs) and also its now quieter ?? i thort opening the exhaust would make it louder but it hasn't and doesn't bother me one bit, response is still there so the cooler hasn't affected spool up time so all in all a good result . as for more power ill get back to you as its wet and I'm ether getting a engine light or if i turn off traction control I'm hitting rev limiter in seconds so i guess its hard to tell until its dry.

it doesnt seem to have any more power but i dont know if its just the gains are too small to notice or that maybe because its so much quieter now i feel i thinks its not i dont know , i should do a dyno run theres no point as i dont know what it was before the upgrades!!!.

can anyone claify for me i want to know if theres any boost leaks but i cant hear anything and the boost doesnt drop when the foots down but i dont feel the thrust of the turbo as much (agin it maybe because i cant hear the exhaust so my mind is tricking me or i could have been expecting huge gains so it feels less than i expected !!.

also i disconected the battery to put it in learn mode if that changes anything ??

sorry but but i am a noobe

r&r would be very noticeable mate, it will run like shit and be very unpleasant. O2 sensor will probably be due for a change, they only last like 60000km, but it won't impact on power, just on your freeway fuel economy.

Problem for us is there's no aftermarket O2 sensors like on the r33's and r32's, so we have to buy nissan, which are $200+.

You could dyno it and see if it's putting out the right amount of power by comparing it to the dyno thread. Or drive a friends corolla or whatever for some perception aligning :verymad:

ps: remember oil change after dyno mate

apparently mate, it's one of those things we're all meant to know lol. its mentioned here and there in the oils thread.

i think it's because the engine is pushed hard and gets hot, so its treated a bit like a drag or circuit day

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
    • @GTSBoy yeah sorry i know thery are known for colors bud those DBA are too in colors 🙂 Green will be good enough for me
