we are usually pretty good but we have tonnes of stuff coming in through estate things so stuff is coming in and out every weekend!

Ahhh yeah that would do it! A lot we had was from the garage when we moved, and stuff I had in my parents garage that when we came up went yeah can clear that out... Had so many boxes unpacked for a couple of years and finally got most of it unpacked and sorted... The joys of having stuff in storage and forgetting what is actually there!!!

Karl at Epic Automotive Concepts. He is a Z32 (among others) owner and quite a good friend of many years. He has recently started a workshop, doesn't have a dyno but he has access to one.

He can offer a complete drive in, drive out service for restorations or modifications of any scale, and has probably the nicest zed in Aus, and probably one of the nicest in the world.

Hi zed started like this:

Honestly you may find sumitomo's somewhat underwhelming...

Well it's as big as I can go without paying big money. I think the 34 gtt is 6pm bigger but really no improvement. The stock stagea brakes are terribly bad. They have 2 pot brakes and the same disc size as an n14 pulsar. The sumitomo are a huge upgrade. With some dba 4000 rotors and some nice pads it will be a massive difference. I know it's not hard core big brake spec but much bigger rotors and calipers than I'm currently using

"it looks very nice and posh Dan"

Some may know the story of when my R34 was sold under duress, that I was told "no more Japanese boy racer cars" which left me with a massive dilemma, basically it had to be German, AWD and fast. Flash forward 4 years and I finally got what I wanted.

I picked Han up in it after work and she said it made her feel sick each time I gave it some throttle.....my job is done.

lol yuppie car, at least it isn't dsg/s-tronic auto whatever.. novelty gets old and boring to drive rather fast..

also make sure you get ecu flash with whichever rip off company, better value for money than usual bolt on upgrades.

Stock as a rock, 0-100 in 5.7 (feels quicker though) APR stage 2 on the books. Should pull a clean 0-100 in 4.5

2nd gear is the impressive one, nice and punchy

you might want to do your homework and read about apr/harding stories ;) should look into BPS tuning as it'll be car specific

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      By Duncan · Posted

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
