Intake done in December. I think the ping was before the intakes went in.

Even if it was after...wouldnt the ECU be picking up the different intake and adjust accordingly? I reset the ECU a couple of times since then.

Ping only at low revs...1.8k to 2.3k? higher revs/speeds no ping.

Nope, have not changed spark plugs/fuel pump at all.

Got the car Nov 2012. Car is a 2007 V36. Got it with 36k kms on the clock.

I'll try United P100 and see what happens. Will try to clean MAF and throttle body on the weekend and proceed to spark plugs and fuel pump if all fails...

Is there anything I am missing? Should I try stock air intakes?

Maybe try running some Subaru upper engine cleaner through it? Get rid of some gunk built up in there (and give you a nice clean intake manifold while you are at it - might not fix it, but for under $20 it is worth a try) My V35 ran beautifully afterwards

It also depends on where you bought it as to whether it really has 36k on the clock - it costs under $100 to get this changed. If you have more km on the clock, there are other things that could be more built up in the engine or things that could be wrong. Obviously at 36k it should be basically a brand new car ...

Ok ill try checking the AFM and the cleaner. I dump in Nulon Fuel System Cleaner and 44l of P100 last night. Lets see what happens over the next few days.

I bought the car on auction from Japan. It was checked for genuine KMs by computer system. Whether or not it's genuine, can't really be that sure but yes essentially the whole car looks brand new and nothing was modded or been touched.

Could the the timing yes, one of the more common causes...

Mine has zero mods, its just my daily and I haven't had it for long, but being a high comp engine with Japanese ecu tuning I'm not hugely surprised by the ping on crappier fuel. But I will look at spark plugs and intake clean soon

The Mirage on the other hand has been driving me nuts. I have changed the plugs, plug leads, dizzy cap, rotor, fuel filter, air filter, checked the timing, three rounds of intake cleaning (two at home and one with a pro machine) and full bench injector clean with new o rings etc... yet, still pings :rolleyes:

Next step - colder plugs and oxy sensor. No luck with cheap OBD2 adaptor either

    • 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.
    • Since winter isn't that harsh anymore in Poland, i will definetely drive it 365 days a year 😉. But if the snow hits i will try it for sure and let U know. Only swap i am planning to do is of course R34 GTR front 😍.
    • 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
