Its not a serious question, Its a trick question. Its also a demonstration to show that statements like the above shouldn't be posted unless you know exactly what you are talking about.

So why do you "know exactly what you are talking about" and others don't ? :P

Nistune can be set up to idle really well with most changes, but as with all such things, spastically large injectors or massive AFM capacity mean that you're working at the very bottom end of the sca

Well, sort of. It is actually pretty easy to determine the relationship, for A GIVEN ENGINE, between MAP and air flow (with IAT correction). And it's not going to be much less accurate to calculate

Anything I post, I make sure I know what I am saying and have some sort of real world relevance as an example.

I don't just bust out comments like "More revs means more inefficiencies due to friction in all the moving parts"

All the parts weigh the same, with more revs they are doing the same work more often. Does this make them or the engine less efficient?

Now I don't know the answer. But do I post it unless I do know the answer. No

Because he is a very experienced tuner, and you are not?

What does tuning have to do with me saying two engines making the same power level will use different amounts of fuel? He even agreed they would use different amounts of fuel, I don't even know why there is a debate.

If we really want to make appeals to authority to justify our claims, then I am the engineer and he is not. Kind of silly isn't it?

and what does BMSP have to do with anything realting to the tuneability of an ECU

lol I think the OP came to a conclusion ages ago.

Hi,

Just to mention:

The Z32 ECU does also switch VTC (or VCT) based on engine load / speed / temperature so a switch based one sole RPM might not be as good.

.

Z32 can control the VCT and it has something else that it can control better, I can't remember but pete from nistune was telling me, might have been something with the knock sensors I can't remember.

But you can easily control the VCT via an MSD window switch or an eboost street (with built in window switch). There is plenty of discussion on the nistune forums and on here regarding the differences if you do a search though. :)

I've heard of people wiring it permanently on because it performs better than off, so I wouldn't be too worried about it say burning out the solenoid or anything.

Know it is fine in my car using a window switch, I just make it turn off below 1.5k so it isn't on all the time.

Having it on constantly would cost you power at higher RPM.

The genuine R33 ECU switches off at around 4600RPM.

I guess a window switch will work fine, though the load triggered activation has a certain appeal to it.

Its mainly people with rb20 ecu's or ones that that dont have any control over the vtc. NIStune have proved

That running the vtc permantly on is alot better for mid to low power/torque but may lose 10 kw at peak power

Still one has to ask himself why did Nissan go through all the hassle of VTC activation if switching it on permanently

just takes off 10KW at the upper band.

(So I don't buy the 10KW)

;)

There are comparison dyno graphs somewhere on here, I know mine added 15kw in the midrange, unsure of top end loss with it stuck on though.

When trying to sell cars the 10kw is a massive thing.

Just like those guys running 290ish kw's that 10kw puts them in the 300's which is huuge just because it has a 3 at the start of it

I will try it with my drift car.

Were also trying another cheap vtc setup which is always on but the turns off above a preset rpm say 5000rpm. This works out alot cheaper and should do exactly what we want

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.

      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
