You gotta get somebody to have a proper look at it... if wiring to the original ecu has not been damaged (including interior and engine bay) it should run fine. I think it'd be very difficult for somebody to give you a solid answer online.

 

Where you from? Maybe somebody close by can give you a hand!!!

There must be a reason someone went to the trouble of installing a microtech. Do you have non stock turbo, injectors etc? Bit hard to tell from the jumble of wires but it looks as though it has been piggybacked on to the stock ecu so should be physically simple to do but you need to make sure your engine is safe running on the stock ecu.

I did bring the car to a few workshops. All shook heads seeing the wire in the interior and engine bay:3_grin:. Most of them just recommend to change to a Haltech ecu and new wiring.

Turbos are stock. Injectors not sure. AFM were not connected when i got the car. Ok will study the messy wires more closely to see how it works out.

Thanks for the advices guy.

Well will need stock afms to work

Yet as stated the ecu was probley put in for a reason.

If everything is stock however it shouldn't be to difficult to revert back. Where abouts are you located?

      What brakes on R34 GTT(Europe)

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.

      Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?

      Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
