Hi

I am about to have a full exhaust system done on my series 2, RS Four S.

Not sure at this point wether to get twin dump pipe or just a bellmouth.

I will also be getting a Blitz LM return flow intercooler installed and was wondering if I will need to have the car tuned with aftermarket ecu piggyback or maybe Nistune board.

Or will the car run fine with the standard ecu ?

Any help would be great thanx

Since you have a S2 you would benefit from getting a Nistune fitted and tuned. The car will run on the stock ecu but from stock they all run very rich and a tune will benefit economy and/or performance and help your engine live longer.

Do the exhaust and the intercooler first if you want and get the Nistune as soon as you can.

Yes if you can source an R34 GT-t PFC and run 3.7v to pin 51 on the ecu to get around traction control you can use a PFC.

If you just gut your existing cat you get the same thing for free. More power noise very slightly increased.

nistune is about $350 without the software (off the top of my head)

+ cost of tune

pfc is $1000+

+cost of tune

with an exhaust and no tune on 7psi my rs4s was making 135awkw

10psi and a nistune + tune will get you near 200awkw

a guy i know with another rs4s said the tune was the most noticable mod he has done so far

also, the cost of tuning a nistune would only be a little more than a piggyback but you will get much better results

I already have Greddy power extreme exhaust, blitz intercooler, Greddy oil catch tank, JJR bellmouth dump pipe all awaiting to be installed. I will also be getting Splitfire coil pack and from what your all saying is I need Nistune board fitted, boost controller and then a tune. What kind of power should I then expect to see ?

Hey mate, perhaps jump into the Forced Induction performance thread and have a flick through the recent pages of the RB25 dyno results. That will give you something to go off, and then you can see what to expect. With the stock turbo, people don't push too hard.

Have you bothered to read anything in your own thread? I swear this has been asked and/or answered already more than once.

And right there is the reason a lot of people don't get on these forums cause there's always someone who has to show some infant ism.

I am merely asking to clarify so as not to get told some bs from a workshop. After all isn't that what this is here for. C'mon

    • I would just put EBC back on the "I would not use their stuff" pile and move on.
    • Can I suggest you try EBC directly again and link them to as many competitor catalogues as you can to show their listing is incorrect, eg https://dba.com.au/product/front-4000-series-hd-brake-rotor-dba42304/ If you have access to an R33 GTST VIN and your VIN, you could also use a Nissan Parts lookup like Amayama to show them the part number is different between 33 GTST and 34 GTT which may get their attention
    • So i got reply from EBC and they just this site where you can clearly see those 296mm fronts on R34 GTT. I send them photos and "quotes" that 296mm are not for 34 GTT and they are too small. But it will be very hard to return them cuz nobody here knows 100% and they just copy those EBC catalogue :-D https://ebcbrakesdirect.com/automotive/nissan/skyline-r34
    • Hi, is the HKS  Tower Bar still available ? negotiable ? 🤔
    • From there, it is really just test and assemble. Plug the adapter cables from the unit into the back of the screen, then the other side to the car harness. Don't forget all the other plugs too! Run the cables behind the unit and screw it back into place (4 screws) and you should now have 3 cables to run from the top screen to the android unit. I ran them along the DS of the other AV units in the gap between their backets and the console, and used some corrugated tubing on the sharp edges of the bracket so the wires were safe. Plug the centre console and lower screen in temporarily and turn the car to ACC, the AV should fire up as normal. Hold the back button for 3 sec and Android should appear on the top screen. You need to set the input to Aux for audio (more on that later). I put the unit under the AC duct in the centre console, with the wifi antenna on top of the AC duct near the shifter, the bluetooth antenna on the AC duct under the centre console The GPS unit on top of the DS to AC duct; they all seem to work OK there are are out of the way. Neat cable routing is a pain. For the drive recorder I mounted it near the rear view mirror and run the cable in the headlining, across the a pillar and then down the inside of the a pillar seal to the DS lower dash. From there it goes across and to one USB input for the unit. The second USB input is attached to the ECUtec OBD dongle and the 3rd goes to the USB bulkhead connected I added in the centre console. This is how the centre console looks "tidied" up Note I didn't install the provided speaker, didn't use the 2.5mm IPod in line or the piggyback loom for the Ipod or change any DIP switches; they seem to only be required if you need to use the Ipod input rather than the AUX input. That's it, install done, I'll follow up with a separate post on how the unit works, but in summary it retains all factory functions and inputs (so I still use my phone to the car for calls), reverse still works like factory etc.
