Cool, I'd be interested to see how it works for you. I thought the Attessa relied on a signal from the ABS or something but I guess not.

So I have a power goal of 600 HP + at the flywheel

Garrett -5 turbos

Tomei dumps

Nissan manifolds

Standard head

Tomei cam gears

Tomei fuel rail & reg

Nismo 600cc injectors

Standard crank

Forged rods & pistons

ARC cooler

Haven't sorted front pipe yet...I do have one that's a bit beat up but was thinking of using it and trying to do a side exiting exhaust.

Something similar to this:

http://www.gtrlife.com/forums/topic/78553-exhaust-turn-down-track-pipe-any-interest/

Has anyone done anything similar?

My worry is the ground clearance for the turn-down piece that will be fabricated to bolt to the front-pipe exit as it won't have the trans tunnel to follow like a normal rear exiting exhaust does...also will most likely be quite loud?

It does, or at least the ABS is part of the Attessa computer. Hydraulic bypass won't affect the Attessa computer though.

On a side note, I disagree pretty strongly with the statement on their website "Removing ABS for a track driven car is a must and is strongly suggested. ABS modules are known to kick in under hard braking or in the wet unexpectidely. "

ummm....no

ECU of choice???

I am thinking it's going to have to be a Haltech Platinum Pro mate. Keen to have the ability to run 98, flex or full E85

Don't suppose anyone has one for sale...?

if you have the Kesh get the new elite. It shits all over the plat pro tuning wise.

Damn Elitists !

Is it available now?

Is there a comparison table of features Pro V Elite ?

Edit:

Not sure the new features of the Elite will make a difference to the 32 GTR

Maybe some easier tuning.

Looks to be aimed at newer vehicles and a wider variety

Ultimate tunes have one being tuned right now, and went over it all with me. For a track oriented car it would make a difference.

With some decent tyres the kinds of line pressures you generate are enough to pretty much stop the old absent from working anyway. I can't remember the abs activating in the dry on track. Not in the wet either but it doesn't rain much over here either.

Also the cycle rate is so slooooow.

I'm running a full AGI cage in my car, easy to install quailty is second to non.

IMO. the chaces of going on your lid, isn't the biggest worry, it's side impact...The AGI seems up for the task.

As the 600 plus horse power.... Just empty your wallet now :no: .... IMO.... Good luck though, keen to watch the build

don't be little girly Robbie.

E85 Flex all the way.

Then you get best of both worlds.

Just can't go passed E85 mate. Its well worth it.

  • 4 weeks later...

Cheers Nigel. Haha yeh spot on mate. Cage looking very nice...looks like you went for the top of line!

E85 Flex all the way.

Yeah mate E85 is locked in now! Obviously Nismo injectors will now be redundant.

Been plenty happening on this but no time to get any photos/post on here

The following parts have been ordered/have arrived:

Tomei oil pump

Tomei cam gears

Tomei sump baffle

Tomei fuel rail

Greddy pulley set (aluminium)

Nismo gearbox mount

Kansai Service Transmission Member Collars

OS Giken O/H Kit Set A for TS2B Clutch Kit

Fuel set up still to be sorted, so far it's as follows:

Factory HICAS hard lines

1150cc Bosch injectors (stainless steel internals)

3L surge tank (anodised)

Holley Dominator 1800 fuel pump (ss internals)

Unsure on FPR - any suggestions?

May as well go Tomei FPR while you're at it

Not sure it will be compatible with e85 long-term? (internally)

Also have purchased:

-5 turbos (near new)

Tomei dumps (near new)

Engine has been pulled down and the plan so far is:

N1 block (near new) - to be torque plate bored/honed, crack tested etc

Revised lated model OEM crank - to be linished etc

Ross balancer

Tomei oil pump (new)

Tomei sump baffle

Sump extension using plate ally (8.5L capacity)

Head - to be cleaned

ARP head studs

Hi Octane cam baffles

Nitto head drain kit

N1 water pump

Yet to look into:

1. Forged pistons

2. Forged rods

3. Springs

4. Camshafts

Any input/advice/feedback re the above 4 items is always appreciated! :thumbsup:

Edited by $$slowmedown

Do a complete nitto bottom end. Seriously won't regret it. Well priced and amazing quality.

Thanks mate. Will get a quote

what you u think I have in mine? so far I have had no issues with my Tomei FPR.

I think issue comes with time...I've been put onto this to help counter the breakdown/corrosion/gumming

http://lucasoil.com/products/fuel-treatments/safeguard-ethanol-fuel-conditioner-with-stabilizers

what I have been told however (yet to be confirmed) is that E85 rots R32 GTR fuel tanks over time.

If someone else can confirm this, will the slim shady please stand up!

Haven't heard that...anyone had any experience with this?

    • But first....while I was there, I also swapped across the centre console box for the other style where the AV inputs don't intrude into the (very limited !) space.  Part# was 96926-4GA0A, 284H3-4GA0B, 284H3-4GA0A. (I've already swapped the top 12v socket for a USB bulkhead in this pic, it fit the hole without modification:) Basically to do the console you need to remove the DS and PS side console trim (they slide up and back, held in by clips only) Then remove the back half of the console top trim with the cupholders, pops up, all clips again but be careful at the front as it is pretty flimsy. Then slide the shifter boot down, remove the spring clip, loose it forever somewhere in the car the pull the shift knob off. Remove the tiny plastic piece on DS near "P" and use something thin and long (most screwdrivers won't fit) to push down the interlock and put the shifter down in D for space. There is one screw at the front, then the shifter surround and ashtray lift up. There are 3 or 4 plugs underneath and it is off. Next is the rear cover of the centre console; you need to open the console lid, pop off the trim covering the lid hinge and undo the 2rd screw from the driver's side (the rest all need to come out later so you can do them all now and remove the lid) Then the rear cover unclips (6 clips), start at the top with a trim tool pulling backwards. Once it is off there are 2 screws facing rearwards to remove (need a short phillips for these) and you are done with the rear of the console. There are 4 plugs at the A/V box to unclip Then there are 2 screws at the front of the console, and 2 clips (pull up and back) and the console will come out.
    • So, a bit of a side trip, but one that might be interesting for people with JDM cars and japanese head units. I know @Pac previously posted about a carplay/android auto adapter he installed which used the AUX input, and @V35_Paul put in one of the Tesla style units that replace both screens. The option I went with was a Lsait LLT-YF-VER5.87_2 (https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8GB-Android-Multimedia-Interface-for_1601187633672.html). Price was $1,150 for a single unit although they are much cheaper if you are willing to buy 2....$857ea. Make you you get the version 2 not version 1, it is faster and has a better UI - this is the manufacturer listing: http://www.lsailt.com/product/348.html. BTW if you've never bought from Alibaba before, don't be concerned....these guys can't stay in business unless they are responsive, ship fast etc, they were excellent (probably faster shipping than most local places) So, this was my task for a lazy Sat afternoon....looks complex but was all done in a few hours (it probably helps that I had some of it apart before so it was a bit familiar). I also decided to add a HD USB drive recorded at the same time and the unit also supports an aftermarket reverse cam (if you don't want to retain factory) and also AV in and HDMI out It looks much worse than it is, in fact in was genuinely all plug and play (no custom wiring at all). This video was pretty good (skipped a few steps), unfortunately they are an Aussie seller but no longer sell this unit (I guess Carplay/AA adapters are easier to install and much cheaper) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T5hJfYOB8Dg
    • That still isn't a lot to go on. I don't have a Y50 Fuga Head Unit wiring diagram. I can say that a lot of nissans of that age shared head unit plugs, so if you are in Australia something like this would probably help: https://aerpro.com/app091# You plug that into the car loom, then either plug the head unit ISO into that (if it has ISO), or you buy and ISO adapter harness that you wire in. Bit of stuffing around, but once you have ISO its easy to change things in future.
    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.
