Hey, I drove mine today. Keep getting 13+ psi then the BOV goes. Hope to get some good brains next weekend at the cruise to sort this.

And actually the car goes great apart from this little glich.

do you mean to boost up that high hugh? or is it spiking or creeping that high. i found my stock bov kept blowing open as soon as i hit about 14psi after my turbo upgrade, i don't think they are really designed to hold much more than stock pressures.

Mine copped a bit of coin leading up to the QLD meet... :banana:

Profec EBC

Dump Pipe

Front Pipe

High Flow Cat

Rear Camber Arms

Rear Toe Arms

Cooler Piping

Cold Air Induction

Rear Calipers + Pads + Rotors

Nistune Board + Partial tune

Mounted the Defi guages properly

Getting new tires this Thursday...

Best of all... I washed it :)

Almost forgot.. I picked up some Personalised Plates :P

Mowing your lawns?? :banana:

haha, let us know how you go :)

Well AEM AFR gauge is in though I haven't finished the dash mounting because barbecue and beer were calling. I'll put everyting back in tomorrow.

I had welded the boss in the exhaust just after the decat because I noticed a nicely placed grommet in the floor there which lines up under the passenger seat for the wiring to go through.

Is the Nismo ECU any good though or is it another raised rev limit, more timing and buckets more fuel? I am asking Kristian to bid on an M35 for me this week!

Apparently the Nismo ECU is a standard pre-tune program you buy from the shop....no dyno tune to you car needed.....plug and play. From memory it’s got the speed limiter lifted to 250km’s, snow is eco, better throttle response and a slight boost increase, increased rev limit + tune.

but then again all the above is not 100%....I guess I wont find out until next week......the one thing I am after is more RPM and better throttle response.

good luck finding one......a little birdie told me about this one....there as pretty hard to find......this is only the second on I have had the chance to bid on!

Can the 'tune' be extracted or do we all have to wait for the SAS guys to do their stuff? I have been reading the forums for the past couple of months and the ecu seems to be where the power is lost, so it's the place to look for some decent gains. Forgive my ignorance but what's so hard about getting the ecu re-flashed? Not that anyone in TAssie would do it but I would like to send mine off and get it done.

it's Nismo!.......will post more info when I get it!

I just cannot wait to get the Haltech off! :banana:

I have never ever seen a haltech but wonder why or how it is not working on your car. What problems are you experiencing?

The Nismo sounds like a punt. How much is sh*tloads of money?

If you have $2000 and wiring skills a proven ecu is the Link (or ViPec if you prefer) wire-in version. The 2wd manual M35 for sale on TradeMe found the Link to be the best way to provide tuning capability on the V6 engine.

i'm pretty sure the stock ecu does all the shifting too so i dont know how much of a solution a link would be

heard a lot of ppl raving about adaptronic too

but again, what do you do for auto box control?

With a wire in Link you can pick and choose the functions you want the Link to take over (e.g. all the engine management functions) and if the auto computer is inside the stock ecu leave it there to do all the auto functions. The Link's "flat change" ability should take care of the old problem of undue shocks during gear changes.

(ps the change to a map system will get rid of problems with the stock afm)

Its all an unknown though, as nobody has done it yet. Even a simple emanage install on mine has taken over 100 power runs to get to run smoothly.

The transmission has a separate controller which communicates with the ecu to back off the accelerator and timing for gear changes, it will still shift without this communication but the box cant handle it.

Believe me, I would love to get standalone control of the engine but I don't have 5 grand to blow on unit, fitting and tune, only to find the p1ggyback does just as good a job. I believe there are at least 10 owners waiting for the reflash (myself included) due to the illegal aspect of these aftermarket ecu's.

basically what Scottynm35 said!

My reasoning for getting the Nismo btw is not because I have given up on SAS.....but is so SAS can a least get a close tune to it....all things being good with the Nismo that is.

@KiwiRST4 Haltech....don't get me started :ninja: ......let's just put it this way....I am sure for some cars they are brilliant(e.g R35 GTR)....but for ours give it a miss.

The only way to truly control this motor is through a standalone ECU or a reflash.....piggybacks will not do it....sorry most piggybacks(theres one but it's about $2K) will not do it.

p.s. A standalone will not work unless you manualise the gearbox.

    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • Hey. Very valuable information about pitwork, I will pay attention when buying any consumable parts 🙏 As for the carpets - I got a handful of information from nengun, from which it appears that indeed the carpets for the driver's side are OEM. They are not able to show me any pictures due to the long chain of different sales entities but after I place the order, as soon as the goods arrive at the nengun warehouse from which they will send the shipment to me they can send me photos and if my purchase differs from OEM I can immediately return it / cancel the purchase. I think I will give it a try 😉. Of course i'll let you know what's what as soon as i get them P.s. I know the topic is not relevant to the thread, but both nengun and amayama have these SICK 😍 trunk room lamps available. Do you know anyone who ordered them? I need to have one in my car
