apparenty the largest bolt on injectors you can put into them are 550cc from nismo...but im really unsure about this.

also, the turbo sux ass. it might spool up quick, but as soon as you run higher boost through it, it starts to whinge - you might even lose your exhaust wheel to your catalytic convertor.

the other gripe i have is the stupid climate control display, in sunlight you cant see a friggin thing because of the glare! but i think this is a generic skyline problem...

sewid:

I thought they all look the same ? Actually this leads to another question.. eheh :rofl: Is there more info on the diff between series 1 and 2? I wasnt even aware of there is a series two of the R34 GTT. :)

As to the front bar.. I have an after market bodykit and it dont look too bad. :)

franks:

Interesting about the injectors.. will keep that in mind.. The stock turbo seems ok for me, as I'm sorta running standard boost atm :)

I agree with the climate control annoyance.. but guess I can live with it :)

What kind of higher boost are you talking about Franks? Have you blown one? I haven't gone to higher boost yet but I'm not far from it.

Weird about the injectors. I would have thought that would be the same as the older RB25's. 550 would be ok with a not too crazy turbo upgrade though wouldn't it? (2535?)

Anyone know about the limits of the fuel pump?

wouldnt be worthwhile putting a GTR turbo on as they have a T2 flange and the RB25 needs a T3 flange (it could be the other way around) - so an adaptor plate needs to be made up.

best upgrade for the RB25 in regards to a bolt-on turbo, with an internal wastegate, would be HKS 2530, 2535 or 2540.

abo bob, are you coming to dinner tonite?

higher boost, 0.8bar and daily driven? im starting to find that the turbo won't even hold 0.9bar!!!

0.8bar with regular squirts and the turbo starts to whine like it has a leeking gasket somewhere. i almost think its the compressor or exhaust blade touching the housing :spank::) :)

as for fuel pump, im on 200rwkw using stock fuel pump and injectors and i havent even maxed my injectors yet (according to powerfc). i'll be close though if i can run 1.0bar...

Interesting. I've been hanging to check out your car man and I'll be there tonight. Also I think you might have something to say about mine when you hear it. I've had a whine (we'll find out tonight if it's the same one as yours) since I got the car.

Boost is stock and holds it fine. Car goes good but the guy I bought it off says the sound it makes is not normal and is curious to check it out at the next service.

my car looks like a piece of shit at the moment :spank: nothing to write home to mum about thats for sure!!! sideskirts and rear pods are off, but, they'll be back on this saturday - should scrub up a little better :)

my turbo doesnt start whining until it hits 0.8 or so bar repeatedly :Paranoid: under normal driving conditions its fine...if yours is whining continuously on stock boost, then i suspect a dying turbo - good excuse to upgrade :)

Hello all,

Just like to have an idea on some weaknesses (if there is any) on skyline R34 GTTs ?  Other than the weight factor of course. :(

Only ONE turbo, only TWO wheel drive, doesn't have SIX throttle bodies :devfu:

Sorry - felt like a bit of stirring today. I actually thought long and hard a year or so ago about whether to by an R34GTT or R32 GTR. The GTT is still a great car with plenty of potential.

Whew.... so far looks like I dont have a hard job later on in fixing up any weaknesses :( Thank you all for the valuable information. :)

BTW.. If memory did not fail me.. there was a skyline in the current special edition of HPI that has a r34 GTT engine in it and it was using 700cc injectors.. :)

the only weakness in any skyline is the clown in the drivers seat that insists on making it faster, sexier, louder, etc!!! oh and the plastic exhaust impeller that likes to turn into powder when given curry at higher boost settings!! and the fact that the rear tyres wear quickly..... Oops, no thats the driver again!

    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
    • So, now all you need to do is connect the 2 or 3x 12v feeds into the unit to permanent 12v, ACC 12V and IGN 12V that you can find in the spot behind the stereo, and the earth, and then it will switch on with the car.
