Hey guys, has anyone here thought about, or actually fitted up an MFD into an R32 GTR (*or GTS-T)? I know it's more than that, ecu, grav sensors etc? I reckon it would be a total d!ck around, but would it be possible provided you had all the R34 electro gizmos? Or is the R32 GTR (*or GTS-T) hardware too old to chuck in the '34 GTR loom, ecu's, etc?

Figure it'd be nicer than have a bazillion gauges. lol

That really is a serious question - I have my flame suit on.


Failing that, has anyone fitted a Wolf Motorsport ECU to an R32 GTR (*or GTS-T), and an iPad mini (which Wolf has the app for the readouts, etc that connects to the ecu via WiFi/Bluetooth) to basically replace their mechanical gauges?
I figure in a race car you don't really need a radio/aircon so there's a big-a$$ hole where they usually sit, and a heap of gauges, while appropriate for racing really isn't my thing in an R32 - being a techno gizmological object, I think it'd look better with a digital display that you could select certain digital gauges to display, and any red lines that happen would come to the forefront and warn you of impending lunar trajectory of your rods and valves.


Just an idea.
I reckon it's neato, and I know guys are doing the iPad mini conversions (haven't seen one in an R32 yet), and as Wolf has an app for their ECU for in car analysis in real time - I figure why not - if it's possible, it'd be phugg!n cool.


Opinions?
Flaming?
Laughs?

You R34 and '35 Guys can laugh all you want being much newer cars, saying I wanna make my R32 to grow up and be just like the big boys.. which is kinda true. LOL.
So flame and opinionate away.

I would like to implement it, as I just decided to garage my R32 now rego has run out, and build a nice streeter that is capable of being tracked, while still looking almost up to date, and capable of driving nicely without issues like fuel mixture, etc popping up every two seconds and stalling it out - like mine just started doing.

Also ^ Build thread shall come when I find my camera - but it will be slow, and just another boring thread about a car that isn't all that special compared to a lot of other R32's on here.

:-)

    • Thank you, 100% the intent. New coils were due and the 17" sixers look/feel loads better than the stock wheels. The aero options are so spot on.   Thanks for the warm welcome, all!
    • 98 r34 gtt Been rocking my latest setup and car running like never before. Have put a good 200 miles on it since all the latest changes and additions. everything is dialed in and have been driving it a bunch.   However, all a sudden last weekend as soon as I pushed throttle passed 4k and the engine stumbles, (slow or fast acceleration) hesitates and doesn’t go above 4100 or so, like a misfire. Everything else seems fine. I had a “good” set of coil packs that I removed from car when I first got it when I changed them over to new coils. I swapped out current ones for those, but no change. I also changed the plugs, no change. Seems to rev over 4 when out of gear with no load just fine no “misfire”, but as soon as its in gear with a load of any kind, it “misfires” as soon as rpm drop back below 4 k it runs perfectly, smooth, starts, restarts and drives fine as long as I keep it below 4 k while in gear. All readings look fine, no CEL   Any idea as to what could all a sudden cause an issue when pushing rpms passed 4 k?
    • When you say your cams are 272/262 is that 272in and 262ex?
    • We're arguing semantics. I am saying 45 accel and a 55 deccel ramp are "2 ways". Even a 45 degree ramp and an 89 degree ramp is "2 ways", because it is literally... two ways. The cusco 55/30 ramp is a 2 way. It's two ways. I get it though - in normal nomenclature a "2 way" would be 45/45 or 55/55 or 60/60 i.e the same locking in both directions. And something like 45/65 would be considered "1.5 way". I would then say if we're getting into the nitty gritty then every locking diff is a "2 way" diff and we should not speak in 1.5, or 2 ways but ramp angles instead. Which ofc if one of those ramp angles is 90deg, that side is not doing any locking. :p So Nismo don't obviously sell 3 things. The fact of the matter that they only sell two items really goes to show that there's a 2 way and a "1,5 way" which is really a 1 way. I believe the actual lockup for the 'adjustability' of the GT pro is really just setting preload for when the ramps actually start locking up. It's not changing how much 'wayness' there is. It is (somehow) horribly explained. People just buy whatever diff and go "locks up good bruh" and that's what ends up on socials forever.
