Hanaldo's R34 Gt(T) Skyline Build


Recommended Posts

Are the inlet and outlet of the tial and TS the same? If so you can borrow the whole gate, keen too see this car finally running right.

I wont be needing the gate for a few months

Well they look quite similar in shape:

But I doubt a 44mm gate will fit onto a 40mm v-band? My setup is also relatively tight, so I doubt a 44mm gate setup will fit. Also might not be a good idea to get the tune done using a 44mm when I plan on using a 40mm, not sure how much it would affect flow and efficiency, but possibly a fair bit. Thanks though mate!

Yehhh they won't, they want the money themselves which is understandable.

Just had a real good look around the shed and it's no where to be found, so now the quest begins to find one I can borrow this week! :/

My tial mvs 44mm is smaller then a normal tial 44mm. So maybe able to try one of them? Could turbosmart email you the specs of the sleeve and get one machined locally?

I think its only the diaphragm bit thats different, the body still looks similar man!

Good luck mate, i hope you find one!

Updates in here hanaldo

He hasn't got a leg to stand on :P

No really, both the car and him were undergoing work yesterday so updates may take a day or two, hope it's good news on both accounts :D

Haha will hopefully update later today lads, surgery went well but unfortunately I won't be able to drive for a few days :( talk about a tease!? trying to sort out a couple of mates to drive me in and drive the car home. Sort of have to, tuner doesn't have space to hold on to it :/

Glad to hear it went well mate :D When is it going on the dyno? Yesterday? Today? Dont hold us in suspense for too long :P

Haha oh I thought you'd seen the Hypergear thread. The car is all done, it was the only car my tuner had to tune yesterday. He texted me this last night:

"Car went OK. Didnt ooze hp unfortunately. It doesn't like boost at all. It appears there is a restriction at around 340 or 350 hp. After that it doesn't make good hp. 20 psi is hardly any more powerful than 16 or 17 psi which indicates a flow restriction or bad intercooler that has pressure restriction. It went about 350 at 18 psi but went almost the same hp at 16 psi. Needs pipework fixed up. Blew 2 pipes off. Base timing was 10 degrees out. Very hard work."

So it's not perfect. But it's my car, so it was never going to run smoothly. I am just happy it made it off the dyno in one piece and didn't commit suicide again :glare: anyway, for now I'm happy. I now intend to hammer the thing at Powercruise, drive it and enjoy it for a bit, and then see what needs doing.

Just gonna copy/paste from the Hypergear thread, cos I'm lazy :P

So here's my graph:

308158_10151035475112541_1218309130_n.jpg

Red line is high boost setting at 18psi, blue line is low boost setting at 16psi with the gain set more conservatively to bring it on slower. You can see there isn't a lot of difference in the power output between the two settings. Compared to the previous tune at Allstar, I have picked up almost 1500rpm of response though. Full boost used to be at almost 5500rpm; now it's at about 4100rpm. So it's a totally different beast. This is even more responsive than my old G2 used to be, so the new setup is doing something right.

Still can't drive it myself though, stupid pain medication :(

And here is the video I posted in there as well:

Glad to hear its back on the road and running!

Sounds like there could be some more left in it with some further tweaks, but probably best to just enjoy it for a while for now :thumbsup:

How did you find Garage 101 overall? Hopefully not too much longer until I can speak to them about tuning my car.

Highly recommend them dude. Danny was great, very very helpful. He didn't come across as just being interested in making more money, he seemed like he genuinely WANTS to tune my car. Walked me through everything he did, couldn't get hold of me while I was in hospital so he texted me instead, gave me a list of things he thinks might be causing the restriction and where to start, etc. Whole thing only cost me $715 as well, $550 for the tune (complete retune, he didn't use any of Allstar's settings) and he needed to weld some pipes for me, etc.

Awesome, can't wait to get mine done :)

Bit of the first cruise session from Powercruise yesterday:

Mate who filmed this has a video on his phone of the second cruise session with SimonR32 walking all over me :P will get it from him.

    • In the US people definitely take photos. It's a lot of attention. I personally don't care but I drive pretty cautiously.
    • Hi guys. Title … Bought new genuine hazard switch and new genuine flasher relay, indicators now work but hazards still not working. Hazard fuse all good tested with a multimeter.  Tested hazard wiring, I’m a div forgot to test with button actually pressed in, nevertheless, here’s what I measured with hazard button disengaged… 1st wire - red - 0v 2nd wire - green/red -12v 3rd wire - white/green - 12v 4th wire - blue/red - 0v 5th wire - black - 0v 6th wire - white - 0v 7th wire -  green/black - 0v 8th wire - blue/white 5.95v Does this look okay? - can anyone confirm if the hazard has its own relay , separate from the indicator relay ? Apparently r33 has two relays ?   Racking my brain trying to figure it out 😭    
    • New alignment and matching tires is great and f*ck me are the German roads fast. Took another trip to the Nurburgring yesterday with my buddy and the car feels great in the dry - a lot of mechanical grip. In corners at 140-160kph I felt like I could keep going.
    • Has anyone else been swarmed by morons with cell phones taking pictures of their car? A few of you may know, I recently moved from Japan to Europe and brought my R34 with me. Since arriving I've driven the car a handful of times and without fail have had people filming/taking photos of me with the car to a point where it's becoming annoying and a bit hazardous. Yesterday, whilst driving with my buddy (R32 GTR) on the highway, I spotted three cars pulling alongside with some twat hanging out the window recording with his phone. This one VW Golf came alongside in the passing lane and held position preventing me from being able to pull out and pass slower traffic in my lane so I gestured to him to F*ck off.  It seems when people have approached me, in the car park, at work (drove there once - mistake), gas station etc. they ask the same questions: "why doesn't it have a wing?" and "how much power does it have?"; the latter has been met with pure disappointment when I told the kid it's stock. Of course, Japan was a totally different story, the people are a lot more subtle and have never bothered me about my car or have been polite in doing so. Has it always been like this in Western countries, and what are your experiences? I just don't recall this ever, or maybe I didn't have a nice enough car back when I was growing up in the UK. I've taken the R34 out a total of six times since it landed and besides going to the Nurburgring area it's becoming more of a pain than anything.   
    • I had a similar situation with my R32 GTS4. I replaced that solenoid, but it hasn't solved the problem. So its possible the pump is failing. It seems you need to drop the diff in order to do anything that might fix this. So its important to know exactly what the problem is. Or just replace / repair everything while the diff is out.
