Hey guys,

ive have a Apexi Afc neo lying around the house that used to be used in my soarer, question i have is it worthwhile installing into the GTR? is it even possible as the rb26 runs 2 afms?

my car is relatively stock (turbo back exhaust) and don't plan on major mods, so i don't justify shaking out a $1k for a PFC.

not looking for major power gains just a bit more response/torque maybe some economy on the way.

any input would be great?

Waste of tiime imo...

To me the gtr ecu is lean as is until very high up in the rev range so economy is probably as good as it gets with no direct control over timing, and timing is where its at if you want more response/torque..

Remember the afc affects fueling by altering the air flow signal and it changes timing indirectly....most times opposite of where you would want it to be so its a balancing act and gains if any would be minimal

Its works ok for the 25det guys with minor mods trying to get rid of r&r but on the 26 its basically worthless

With that said i have a safc2 on my 26 along side a pfc but its sole purpose is to act as a 2nd knock dectecting device...a feature the neo doesnt have

So unless if you just want a pretty colourful screen on your dash ditch it and get a pfc

sif, nistune supplied fitted and tuned for under 1k, power fc 1k to buy then tuning :)

You'd need to get 32 GTR ECU on top of that.

Unless there's Nistune board for 33 GTR available?

If any of your mates have a wideband, hook it up to your rear exhaust take it for a ride, if the A/F are decent don't bother with anything. Just enjoy the car the way it is.

    • Car has been running great, I've put about 300km's of break in time on it. First thing that stands out with properly sealing rings is no more noticeable crankcase smell coming out of my catch can. This may seem insignificant, but the constant smell while driving around was infuriating. It's also nice to see my oil level remain stable. Two new issues have developed that I only noticed this weekend though. There's a very noticeable driveline vibration past 100kmh. I only noticed it now as I've been babying it under 100kmh in the backroads. This comes as no surprise as I'm running a one-piece shaft, and I paid zero attention to my driveshaft angle when I put everything back in. I also have a fair bit of voltage drop on hot starts. The starter audibly is forcing. No issues on cold start though. I must not have removed all the paint under my main block ground during assembly. I'll try and take care of both those issues this week once the kids are asleep.  I also received all the parts I was missing for my direct port setup. I will hopefully have pictures of that up soon. I'm hoping to get back on the dyno the week of June 30th as I'll be on vacation. I'm confident I should be able to make north of 500rwkw on pump gas and WMI. I'll go back again later this summer with E98, but I want to confirm my ethanol content sensor is working properly first. I've never seen it read anything but 11%. This makes sense for our 10% ethanol content pump gas here, but I would expect the occasional movement between fill ups. 
    • 75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.
    • Trailer prep is underway... Lined up the wheel to get a rough indication of how it would sit Then removed all the bits (as far as possible) and gave the frame a light sand and quick lick of paint   Then added some carpet
    • okay, so I figured this out, removed needles and reinstalled after swapping the gauge face on my triple gauge for my ER34, all work and look good. I tried to do the same for the main cluster, but the main cluster gauge faces are dished, the replacement gauge face are flat, so due to the dish in the org face ,mounting backing plate (clear) and depth of the needle, the flat gauge face will not work. I notice that R34 gtr gauges are flat, appears to be different clear backing plate that aren't dished. are these available, or what have others done to install flat gauge faces?
    • Cheers mate. Seems some people get lucky others don't. It looks like the motor was detonating (to be expected if it was overboosting I suppose) as the pistons had a lot of detonation damage, and the bearings were stuffed. The bores were very scoured too, not sure if that's from the pistons or bits of ceramic turbo. By the by now. Have been trying to avoid the rabbit hole too much on the rebuild, and there's been a few hurdles along the way, but with any luck I'll have the car back soon™. Might even pop up a thread then.
