Hey guys

Been speaking to Aaron from import monster about organizing a group buy for these as they are fairly expensive..

if we can get enough interested buyers we can see if he can get us a good price

i think we would need a minimum of 5

My guess is buying them off the net will be much cheaper than a group buy through said agent (his cut will probably offset most of the discount from the supplier). The Hasemi skirts are currently selling for $776 online though various vendors which is pretty good considering genuine R34 GTR Nismo skirts retail for at about 50% more. Bare in mind that that price doesn't include shipping, though I'm sure if one of you interested R33 drivers contacted the online store they would post your skirts out together to help you save on shipping costs. Just a word of advice to anyone who's new to buying GTR parts, often in Australia you will find a 'GTR tax' on a lot of the parts you buy, along with a disproportionate 'Australia tax' (pretty much a big f u from retailers because we live so far away from the rest of the world and back in the days we had no internet to to compare prices with). In my own experience (and I've been doing this for years), I have consistently saved 35-60% on brand new parts when buying online from Japan, compared to the prices offered by purchasing locally. Just a thought...

Closed.

GB section rules are pretty clear on what you need to do, before posting. By not doing it - it just results in "how much" etc etc.

So please follow the rules and start another thread with ALL the required information covered off.

    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.
