Hey guys,

As per the other thread floating around for R33, someone has informed me they can supply similar Alloy Radiator Air Guides made for R34 GT-T.

The purpose of them is to direct more air to your radiator and make it function more efficiently. Plus they look extra cool :)

We need at least 10 buyers to get the price down, but probably looking at around $75 including delivery to anywhere in Australia. Normally they retail for $200+ (dont ask me why, it's just a piece of metal!)

Anyway, please post here if you would be interested in buying one.

Cheers

:D

Im 99.9% - is that picture an exact representation? Or just to show what you are talking about?

I want to get an idea on the quality first :D

The $200+ are usually Big Jap Brand Names, the cheaper ones are not!

If I had one to work from I could get them made up for bugger all......

Anyone got any lying around?

I'm more than happy to pay $70 for it though.

So what is the benefit of these things?
They blow dry your hair while you drive :) You asked for it Chinny!!!

My oil runs a little hotter after the fitment of my Intercooler, so I'm hoping to drop those temps back down a little with one of these.

UAS are doing a group buy at $40 for the R33 versions.....

Maybe we could have them make a bunch up for the R34 at the same price?

I already contacted Unique Auto Sports 2 weeks ago about doing a group buy on these designed for R34, but they can only supply ones made to fit R33... which they suggested would work ok if they were cut short/modified to fit. I would prefer to have one designed for the R34 than modify an R33 one, even though the price is cheaper..

Anyway still waiting on confirmation of prices and hopefully some more photo's. The prices will be cheaper for SA and VIC due to delivery costs.

I'm interested.. tho the picture dont really show much... I just wonder if there will b any issue in fitting this into my car tho, since i have an aftermarket bodykit. I have seen a 34 with these alloy air guides, but unfortunately havent seen him for ages to enquire about it..

The body kit may have some impact as to where the front of the aluminium mounts to.

Also, if you block off the air going through the grill, wont you block the air going to the air intake???

Maybe we could get all funky and make a dual entry thing, with a duct to the air intake, with the bottom sealed off so that air doesn't go over the top of the radiator????

The three circles are where you could bolt into for the standard one, and just behind the front bar top bit, are three holes in the steel panel that goes behind it, which you could also mount too if required.

I think that makes sence....

    • @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.
