Hi all,

Im getting my r34 gt-t shortly and have future plans for it. My aim is to get around 350kw at the wheels.

Anyway i have already purchased an emanage with software, harnesses etc and im wondering if the emanage is going to do the job and get the results i want. If not ill just have to sell it and get a wolf or PFC

Thanks

Brendan

If you wany around 350kw .... well dont buy anything now.. get a GTR or put RB26 on it,,, or else u going to pay $$$$$ for it.. trust me...

with all your part below

Parts|- *Greddy*: Full Auto TT + Profec B Spec II + Emanage. *Hybrid*: FMIC. *Apexi*: Power Intake Pod Filter + EL Meter Series2 Boost Guage + N1 Exhaust System. *GFB*: Hybrid BOV. *Sparco*: Accessories. *Whiteline*: Rear Subframe Align Kit.

max u will get is around 250kw max

i believe the emanage will hack it but the issue is do u know people that can tune it well??? that is the main problem with some ecus some people cant tune them, i say talk to some preformance shops or dyno tuners etc...see what they have to say. Also good info can be found in the HPI DVD's And HPI Magazines one thier r34 gtt project...unless u have seen them already, they have some good info and came close to your goal of 300rwkw.

Well im planning to do all this over the next yr. My original plans were to only slightly modify it but now i have a better income they changed :rofl:

Im going work out exactly much money ill have over the next year and how im going to spend it.

I was thinking along the lines of a HKS GT3040 as i will eventually get around to getting forged internals.

My car should arrive sometime next month so while i have time on my hands i want to start planning.

No, the E-manage will not hack it.

For the HP you are chasing you will need bigger capacity injectors. E-manage doesn't support this. For what you want, Power FC, Microtech or Wolf are popular choices. Piggybacks & sensor benders rely on the factory ECU which has limitations. A fully programmable standalone is what you need.

Your budget is very optimistic.

that ecu will cost you say minimum $1200 (used price)

Tuning & AFM/MAP sensor $600

Injectors say $1200-2000+ if you're lucky enough to find bigass injectors to suit the Neo (R33 RB25 injectors are different and far more common)

Brakes & supension will need upgrading to make it tractable at that sort of power. $2000+

Fuel pump of course $300

Forged & balanced internals + gaskets/bearings etc. if you expect it to last beyond a week $2000+

A Twin plate clutch $1200 (used price).

Labour (unless you can do it all yourself) $2000+

There's 10 large - before you have a turbo, manifold, wastegate, front exhaust section & new undies.

you CAN get a complete RB26 for $6000. The GT-t gearbox has the same tough internals as the GTR. ECU's are cheap as. I would recommend consulting a specialist workshop & telling them exactly how you wish to use the vehicle. circuit/drag/motorkhana/street/or a bit of any or all.

You'll still need to budget for suspension & braking mods of course, and you'll want to rebuild the turbos with inconel wheels (a la nismo) but a lot less dicking around altogether,

& you might be able to afford those new undies...

mmmkay ??

The E-manage does enable you to use higher flowing injectors. Up to 150% of original injector capacity stated by GReddy but in reality they do support larger than that limit.

For the money the E-manage is a great bit of kit and very easy to program.

    • Sorry for resurrecting an oldish thread Not much has happened in the past year since the last update. The car did another 1000 miles or so and failed the MOT for the first time in October (failed on tyres which had been advised for a couple of years) In October the car got put up for sale and was removed in November due to no interest, being so close to christmas it was to be expected. The roads were dry in February so I decided to tax it early and get the new tyres fitted.   Fast forward to April, I got someone in to give the car a good clean after sitting for the winter.                                 The car got re-advertised and today (Saturday 3rd May) the car sold. The new owner is planning a GTR conversion at some point and a respray in the same pearl white. It's bitter sweet, it's a shame to have the car sit there for half the year and then only do 1000 miles. The kids are growing too quick and space in the back is getting limited. It's been a great 6.5 years of ownership
    • And if you want more power, more reliably, and cheaper, go get the Aussie RB... The 4L Barra and put that in instead.
    • No cats will keep discolouring the rear bar. Sends white paint a weird yellow stain. Cut and polish normally gets it out, but you'll be doing that every fortnight I found.
    • Both heads will be equally reliable or unreliable depending on what you do to them.  Stock the RB26 head will flow more. You have access to the stock intake ITB manifold on the RB26 cheaply which flows really well(1000hp+).   Arguably more aftermarket support for RB26, though in Aus we love our RB30 SOHC heads too.    The only downsides to the RB26 head is if you have a VL commodore and want to keep the SOHC look.  Where you may have an issue is drilling out the rb30 block for the bigger head studs but if you are building a big power motor you'd probably put bigger studs on the SOHC head too.  This is just about finding a good machine shop, sometimes easier said than done.  RB30 head worked can make big power just like a Rb26 head, so really it actually more comes down to what your preference is for your car.  People now even making billet versions of both.
    • 2630s work perfectly well. There is something to be said for just using the 30 head, as it saves all the pain of the conversion, still makes tons of power, still sounds cool, etc etc. 2630 will obviously make more power again, but the differences are not stupidly big. It really depends on whether you're racing for sheep stations or not. If it's dead serious, then it's a 26 head. If it's just for fun, it could go either way. But the 26 head and the effort to get it set up, etc etc, is part of the fun.
