im with rb20lagwagon, i have just been watching in the background....

perth is the only place where wolf is used so much....and its mainly because of SST and ants power beast :D

i realise wolf is still a huge upgrade and its good for the price but is there better options? why are people all over the eastern states not heading down this track?

LagWagon, You can individually trim the injectors to run richer on 5 and 6.

Fane, You obviously don't listen very hard, Wolf was huge well before Ant. But I agree is is good that both ND4SPD and GTAAH both use wolf and make over 650rwhp each:D

IMACUL8, MOTEC is good, but $8k for a decent setup, even John Munro doesn't think it was worth it;)

I'd have to say from what i have seen. Get a R32 Rb20 and then rom the sucker !!!

Cost you about the same

Wolf installed and tuned = $2k

RB20 R32 = $2000

ROM = $500

Sell old Engine = - $1000

Install bits = $500

total = $2000

You will end up with a MUCH better motor, more power, better economy etc etc etc .......

What are you really gaining by running the wolf exactly ???

If you insist on staying with the NICS, get an AFC ... cheap and done !!

8K my ass Paul ......

Paul - I strongly disagree that Wolf was huge before recent times - hell from people I talked to the early Wolfs per a piece of shit - its only since the V4 has come out that they have gained any respectablity.

IMACUL8, Price it up:D Once you have all the options you require to run at a level that ND4SPD is, it is about $8k. Wolf V4 had been out for quite a while before Ant put on in ND4SPD, and alot of Skyline owners were already choosing to use it.

Bah to aftermarket ecu's

There are so many people around the world running fast on factory ecu's and having daily drivers its not funny.

So why then do people even consider a wolf ......

Is it because factory ecu has no hand controller ?? is it about the rice ??

Yes in this guys case rom not availbe for NICS but like i said get a r32 rb20 better all round and can rom :P.

Arguing about which Engine Management is better (Autronic *cough* :P ) is a little off topic... But results speak for themselves...

I'm certainly impressed with the 1.8L Honda making 775HP @ flywheel...

Personally i would research what you need and what you can afford and what you want to do with your car and go from there... Personally i went with Autronic because it had all the features i wanted... And also if and when i get time i can finish developing the digial dash i started... :rolleyes:

Propoganda aside time

Back on subject

No matter how good your efi is ....... your hardware is a turd

for the same dollars get a 32 eccs rb20 then safc or rom tune it

the nics has too many draw backs and theres no point sending good money after bad

On Topic: MrMayhem:werd:

Off Topic: Paul, i listen quite fine thats why im asking questions....

The biggest promoter for anything in terms of mods whether it be a turbo, a set of injectors or an ecu is that fact that someone else has already got it setup.

With a test car like ND4SPD putting out huge ponies and times down the 1/4 always in the spotlight....its easy to promote the wolf because everyone goes well Ant runs it in his car....

"If ant can do it with a wolf why cant I?"

The question that i want answered is all the people that chose ecu's before ant and all the people that dont know of ND4SPD(eastern staters) why didnt they choose Wolf? and why do perth's other top cars not have wolf's? whether it be the speedworks gtr with an hks f-con or gt51r with the autronics...

Had autronics, now ask yourself why it doesn't and now runs a Wolf.

Some of the eastern state guys are starting to run them, but there are plenty of good ECU's about, just have to have the right tuner.

hhahah Paul - and now its got a Wolf, ask hoim why he swapped it. And i hear the new r32 will have a motec ..... hmmmm so ask yourself. ;->

    • They’re so great that I know of someone pulling one out to go back to a sequential 
    • Hello everyone. I've recently started the research into R34 GTR front bits and running into eye watering prices. On the plus site it looks like some places make 'replacement' fender liners for these cars. At eye-watering-but-less than stock prices. I also noticed there's plenty of diffuser options available too. What I would like to know is if my following assumptions are correct. 1) The OEM guard liners are actually only 'half' the liner. They go together with the OEM brake vents which are a separate item which looks to be quite a large 'panel' that is part of the liner. The GTR bumper has bolt holes along the front. I assume the ones in the vent correspond to the ones the OEM liner does not have (circled?)   2) The V-Spec front diffuser supplants the brake ducts in the above item. I am assuming these still work with the guard liners as there's no alternate part that I'm aware of. I don't see how they go together, so I'm making the assumption that they have to, somehow. I know the center splash guard is different on the V-Spec (and is the price of the damn diffuser alone). How does the liner interact with this? 3) There's alternate front diffusers that do away with it all. Annoyingly, a lot of the clones and CF different ones... have no brake ducts on them. I like the idea of them though. My brakes get hot on the track. These alternate diffusers are a lot cheaper than plastic splash guards. I'm assuming you don't have to/aren't supposed to remove guard liners to run a diffuser. I suspect that quite a few people actually do not run the guard liner because with a front undertray you're getting a lot of 'splash' guarding anyway, and most people remove liners given they're probably running a pretty aggressive setup with a diffuser at the front. It would also be nice to know if anyone has ever run the 'reproduction' guard liners and know whether the fitment is OEM quality or "OEM Quality". Example: https://www.ebay.com.au/itm/356254671561 https://carbonetics.net/products/nissan-skyline-r34-gtr-plastic-front-wheel-arch-set Is this knowledge still around?
    • Really, effort is pretty low. You hand fistfuls of cash over to someone else and pick it up when done...   And at least this shitbox isn't drinking coolant right?  
    • And most chargers that most DIY people own would put bugger all power back into the battery between cylinders. I've always done it with jumper packs/second battery connected. And that's on any car.   Because race car, and wanting the lightness.  At least in an R33, putting a bigger battery in can at least help shift the weight balance backwards  
    • OR, Tell the Motec to STFU, you said shift, so try shifting! But then yes, I agree, more sensors needed to. Put either a wheel speed sensor, or a diff speed sensor on it. Then get an input shaft speed sensor too. (I say input shaft speed, and not engine RPM). This way, you can now also log and see if the clutch is slipping (RPM, vs input shaft speed), and you can calculate gear (Input shaft speed / Output shaft speed). At least then if the gear position sensor fails you have a backup. And realistically, the Motec should only worry about what gear you're in for the parts where I'm assuming you have some power management strategies in it for the lower gears. (IE, lower boost, maybe different throttle curves, different ignition curves, etc etc). But it should stop it shifting. Pull the flappy, that f**ker should just attempt the motion! Heck, even on a sequential like on a motorbike, you can keep trying to kick it up a gear all you want, the physically part of the box takes care of not being able to loop the whole way around the box! Only part you'd have to worry is how it gets to reverse.  But that's on the driver... An R32 shouldn't be so smart as to try and override the driver on a gear shift
