I am planning my GTR R34 Haltech Platinum Pro Plug In install right now, do I still need the stock OEM Wastegate valve control solenoid valve?

The reason I am asking is because I no longer have this OEM valve since I have the HKS F-con V-pro and Trust Greddy Profec B at the moment.

It certainly wouldn't need it.

It gives you the option of using it if you want.

When you say I have the option of using the the factory Wastegate valve control solenoid, do I still need to purchase the Haltech boost control solenoid or can the ECU control the factory solenoid?

You can run either, but you already have a boost controller.

I would ditch the profec B and get the tuner to use the Haltech solenoid, or any other MAC valve in place of the stock solenoid.

Thanks man! I will be ditching Trust Greddy Profec B then.

Whats the best or correct way to hook up the Haltech/MAC Boost control solenoid valve?

Wire it to the stock wiring if it is still there. If not, 12v and a spare DPO on the Auxiliary plug on the rear of the Haltech.

I was going to say something smart like "with wire, doofus", but I realised that he may well have meant more to do with the hoses than the wires. And I thought, "Nah, let him find the answers himself. It's not as though the question doesn't get a new thread every 2 weeks".

    • Welcome mate. Any pics? Even with a DE I'd be well happy if I had that as a 1st car. 
    • lol the 2nd one boss, thank you for pointing this out. I feel as i spend more time here this intro message is some thing i will always make me laugh and shake my head at. Perfect Intro:  I have the vehicle  
    • R34DE as in R34 with an RB25DE? So did you get this? Or you planning to?  I'm not really sure what you're saying. 
    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
