Hey all, I’ve tried searching forums and can’t find exactly what’s happening to me so I thought I’d make a new post, forgive me if this is the wrong area, but I do need an opinion.

I’ll start by setting up the picture, so I bought an NA r32 about 5 years ago, it IS factory RB20DET however the previous owner had an expensive set up previously I believe so he removed the turbo parts including manifold turbo etc etc and put NA parts on the turbo motor, so just straight headers and some chunky welded exhaust with an NA computer and HORRIBLE wiring harness (chopped and spliced everywhere).

So about 2 weeks ago I had enough of not being able to keep up with literally anything as it would run horribly, and converted it to turbo, I just finished it today, I used some parts from the various RB25det’s and parts I have laying around since I’ve had a couple skylines, so I’ve changed the following

-RB25DET turbo - New lines - RB20det ECU (second hand) - new wiring harness - front mount intercooler - I fabricated my own intercooler piping (no leaks) - rb25 AFM ( I have the original 20 AFM as well) - new radiator and new exhaust system and dump pipe. 
 

After putting it all together today, it won’t idle, now it could be because I’m super tired and been welding and just can’t think properly and I may be missing something but I need an opinion, if I unplug the AFM it’ll run, but idle at around 2000RPM and just sit there and if I go to rev it, it’ll just bog down, if I unplug the TPS (with AFM plugged in) it’ll start run on 1000 for 2 seconds and then die slowly and turn off. 
 

If you guys need any more info just ask, I have some ideas but I’d like to see what you RB experts have to think about it. 

Any help will be appreciated.

Oh, I did misread.

Either the AFM wiring is not right, or the idle control wiring (or the IACV) is not right.

Or, the million other random things it could be a car that has been hacked apart and then hacked back together. Seriously, just one wrong wire somewhere could cause all this.

    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
