so i have a slightly new plan after calling up some tuners and having a chat,

going to run a haltech instead of microtech swap out the manual boost control for an electronic duel stage get the new mafless tune and just got for a single 044 intank fuel pump because i dont really need the full fuel set up for a streeter,

now just need to save the pennies!

[STVN]

how much are these worth

[IMPORTS ONLY]

what the car?

[IMPORTS ONLY]

figured out one of my AFM's is acting up and thats whats messing with the tune so im just geting another pair to wack in and get the car running mint again for the mean time while i save,

also noticed a bit of oil in the intake piping is there a reason to worry? previously had a catch can set up but removed it

[kingtube69]

I don't think its much to worry about. Could even be old oil if you have a "used" intercooler or something.

I had this in mine, didn't worry too much about it

soo has anyone had their wiper washer bottle keep draining in less then a hour and not leak out of the bottle at all, im 99% sure theres no leaks out of the bottle pulled it out and tested it and put it back in and filled it up and can watch the water go down but not not a drop in the engine bay under the reservoir ?? so must have a leak in the line right? but i cant see any drops of water come out under the car so not sure if its worth getting too deep looking for it haha.

i might just do a relocation to the boot like this guy

and run the rear wiper spray to the intercooler with all new lines throughout

Yeah mine drains in minutes, I'm pretty sure it's the rubber tubes under the passenger front guard somewhere.

so im still chasing this little issue before i take it back for a tune, got some second hand AFMs cleaned them and put them in but still have the same issue, they are a lot closer in volts compared to the last pair so im assuming there good and its something else thats causing the miss when boost comes on around 4k maybe spark plugs?? as coil packs are less then 5000 ks old? will get in there in the next couple of days to have a look in the mean time can anyone think of what else could cause this, also just replaced the TPS

[djr81]

Cant help with the miss, but can offer the following.

When the afms get oily it is because the turbo sucks the blowby out of the cam covers, carrying oil with it. If you follow the breather line from the exhaust cam cover it finishes in the suction side of the rear turbo. There is a restrictor in the hose so the suction isn't too much and no one ever changes it when they put bigger turbos on the car.

The other thing that happens is when oil gets on the afm's they measure high. So you get a rich fuel mixture. What is the afr at 4000 rpm and did it change with the change/cleaning of afm's.

Lastly unless there is oil dripping out of the bovs when you leave the car parked you don't have a problem. Even if it does you may not have a problem.

[IMPORTS ONLY]

at 4000 rpm the afms are on 2.0 volts, didnt test what they were on with the old afms because they were reading a difference in voltage even on idle so knew one was bad, and i cleaned these ones before putting them in so dont have a reading from before hand, and now the voltage is much closer only ever out by 0.1 V if that so im assuming these are good, and have never had oil dripping out of the bovs before either,

is there really much point in running a catch can set up or is the factory return set up fine?

[djr81]

I usually reckon the stock set up to be fine but you can put a can in the system that sits on top of the engine that helps knock some oil out. Search JJR for Autech style.

[IMPORTS ONLY]

id prefer to keep it stock for less engine bay clutter, had a dodgy set up before and i went back to stock

[djr81]

Closest you'll get to a stock look is a NIsmo can but they are crack money to buy and a pain to install.

[IMPORTS ONLY]

still havent hide time to get the tune done but did mess around with some bits for fun and finally got a camera to play with

 

[JH32]

Looks good man

Epic offset!

[GH05T]

i like the square craft mirrors,

whats happening with the tune situation?

[IMPORTS ONLY]

just gotta get 1 more afm and am just going to get the issue sorted, swap to z32s and a bigger fuel pump which should get to 400hp which will do for now, but first gotta pay rego in like 2 weeks and im now doing uni so my weekly funds from work have become a lot less so might take a month to get around to everything

[GH05T]

sticking with the afms?
i thought you were going Haltech?

[IMPORTS ONLY]

yeah just for now because i want to get it running mint so it can at least be driven but will go haltech later once i have the money spare, need to sell one of my other cars

[IMPORTS ONLY]

Finally got my car back from my tuner after 7 MONTHS! LMFAO (shouldn't have told him im currently unlicensed and to take his time but on the other hand freed up garage space)

managed to acquire a few parts in this time as well

just put in BC BR Gold coilovers so i finally have some adjustability as well as camber arms all round

swapped out the craft square mirrors for some east bears

finally got some plates to match TKR32 - TommyKaira R32

Apexi exhaust 

R34 GTR Vspec II front seats (yet to go in)

Greddy Front brakes and Greddy 2 peice rotors  (yet to go in)

GFB G-Force II boost controller

Ended up going with a Microtech LT-16cbecause of the price difference and how much easier they are to tune time wise 

Ended up with 400HP at all four which isnt as high as i was after but it is a fairly safe tune with room to tweak with someone who knows GTRs better

Heres some pics with it pretty low and wide since its not getting driven much
