clwsqc Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Hi all It's my first time posting in sau as i recently purchased an NA R34 with an aftermarket turbo. First of all, can anyone recommend a good tuner (preferred specialised in skyline bnr34) in Melbourne? I would be getting the car retuned after fixing a problem that it currenly has. Secondly, so the problem it has now is that it can rev upto redline on P mode but when driving the rev caps at around 3000-4000. Up to this point i think that either there might be something wrong with the AFM, or i have to install the aftermarket fuel regulator and fuel rail back into the car as i think it could also be the problem from the fuel pump. However i am no specialist in cars so if anyone of u guys can give me anyhelp that would be greatly appreciated. The previous owner did told me about this rev-capped problem and gave me the aftermarket fuel regulator and rail, however i am not 100% sure if that is the solution to the problem so i am wondering if the problem can be easily fixed by a professional tuner/mechanic incase if it is something non-trivial. Also, both the fuel injector and fuel pump are aftermarket and not stock, the AFM i believe is a Z32 AFM.

Ben C34 Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Sounds like you bought a problem. Which is why the guy sold it. Prepare to open your wallet.

Dose Pipe Sutututu Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Also that car sounds butchered.. stock RB25DE ECU with a turbo slapped on it.. don't dick about with the fuel reg or mixing and matching shit without an aftermarket ECU or at least a piggy back (as you have an auto) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/465018-r34-nat-problem-need-a-recommendation-for-tuner-in-melbourne/#findComment-7733999 Share on other sites More sharing options...
clwsqc Posted May 25, 2016 Author Share Posted May 25, 2016 yes it's a piggyback ECU, greddy emanage ultimate which I think is for auto Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/465018-r34-nat-problem-need-a-recommendation-for-tuner-in-melbourne/#findComment-7734012 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prepare to open your wallet. hmm prehaps not as bad as u thought,I've had my mechanic looked into it and he thinks there's no big problem but it just take time to find this rev-capped problem,which is likely to be either afm or fuel related. The car has GReddy emanage ultimate ECU since it's an auto as well as many other mods with over 10k receipts, so I am wondering would a professional tuner be able to diagnose the issue better for me?

acsplit Posted May 25, 2016 Share Posted May 25, 2016 Take it to chequered tuning, they are responsible for selling the emanage in Australia.

clwsqc Posted May 26, 2016 Author Share Posted May 26, 2016 Sorry my bad for creating multiple threads. Also, apparently Chequered Tuning doesn't tune emanages anymore. Is there any other suggestions? Thanks in advance.

I would suggest getting an Adaptronic e420D and splicing it into your loom to control injection/ignition and letting the OEM ECU control the automatic box. That "rev cap" as you call it is actually a TP Load cut.. your ECU is going "wtf.. why is there so much air going into the motor, I'm cutting fuel" Talk to Trent, tell him the bastardised setup you have and someone from SAU recommended using an Adaptronic e420D to make it boogie. 1 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/465018-r34-nat-problem-need-a-recommendation-for-tuner-in-melbourne/#findComment-7735245 Share on other sites More sharing options...
