help! what mod for 200 rwkw?

[hoo@h]

Hi guys. Need some suggestion, new to turbo car.

Got a r34 gtt automatic, all it got now it's a Nismo exhaust, is it possible to get around 200 rwkw out of an auto?

If so, which FMIC ( prefer straight bolt on kit), saw on Greenline website that HKS kit is not suitable for auto? fuel/air management, EBC and would a hi flow or new turbo required at the desired power output?

I guess I would like to have a overall package that will produce good response with big more power than stock.

Your only option for engine management is the GReddy E-manage....luckily only just this weekend I've managed to find a way for the ignition harness to be wired in without issue!!!

Check out the e-manage Thread at the top of this section to get more info on it...it's the last few pages that are relevant.

I think you could move the trannie fluid cooler to the drivers side inner guard, like the opposite of the standard intercooler then you would have no issues with any fmic that is made for a GTT. Also you may be able to modify the mounting bracket to move the fluid cooler closer to the radiator.

Emanage should be the way to go although I am still experimenting with a modified standard ECU. I currently have 189 rwkw with stock cooler, stock turbo, panel filter, 0.8 bar boost and a good exhaust.

I have heard of a few people getting no extra power from a fmic with R34's unlike R33's and R32's which seem to pick up a bit automatically.

FYI, my GTT has been running EManage (minus ignition harness) for close to 2 years now and i am very happy with the result and response...no auto issues to date with crisp, fast changes but am considering auto mods such as altering stall etc. Current set-up: Hybrid FMIC, Hi-flowed standard turbo,Emanage,AVC-R (running 1 BAR), K&N Panel filter, Z32 AFM, 3" Dump, 3.5" JASMA exhaust and 3" CAT back, current power 220rwkW...am fitting Walbro internal 255lph fuel pump and searching for a set of injectors....

Cheers,

Thats weird Neo R34, I had the emanage setup with the Z32 but it wouldnt idle right.

Anyways here are some figure for u to think about:

At that time I had a front/cat back/e-01 boost controller and hks panel and i got about 170rwkw at about .85 bar.

Now I got the PFC/front mount/front and cat back/hks panel filter/ e-01 and I still only got about 180rwkw at about .7 bar.

I just cant seem to get power, anyways back to the topic. I agree best bang for buck is the Emanage. Neo mind me asking where u take ur car too?

[hoo@h]

ok. so greddy emanage seem to be a good option. I will look into that. thanx guys.

but what about stock R34 turbo n IC? Can they stand the daily grind of 200 rwkw or adding a FMIC and a hi flow/ new turbo(HKS 2530) are a more reliable option?

[Neo_R34]

hoo@h- i think your questions are already answered in the above posts...look at the figures and mods, all will be revealed.

GroundRun- I am in Perth WA, if you are serious PM me and i will provide details. Check out for your own info the articles in back issues of HPI re: mods to GTT with manual and power gains...maybe your answers are there. Hope that helps.

Cheers,

I Have 200rwkw at 9psi in my R34, on the stock turbo.. its taken some work and some serious tuning but i got here..

[Abo Bob]

Geez that's pretty good. I think I could get there with some better tuning but not at 9 psi.

What other mods do you have?

[666DAN]

Bah I'll piss 200rwkw in on 5psi Well maybe 8psi at this compression ...and it may only last for a few seconds haha

Thanks Neo, looks like I can just follow your step and get that power figure i am looking for.

And, yes, I have got that HPI mag with the power figure n what mods are required, but just need to be sure that same mod apply to auto.

I guess I just want to know any other fellow auto r34 owner have achieved the result (200 rwkw) with a proven n reliable package. then I can just cut n paste it into me car.

by the way, I am in brissy, so if any1 know any good shop here that can do the sort of mod, please let me know. ta.

What's wrong with S-AFC? It may not have as many features, but it's still an option.

Exactly , nothing wrong with a properly tuned SAFC. They are the best cheapest mod going around in my book.

[Abo Bob]

You would need a fuel cut defender too. That's what they're called isn't it?

[666DAN]

Nothing wrong with an SAFC...just thought the way he was talking he'd want some finer control of the ratios...and if he wanted to adjust ignition curves one of the only engine magement systems that'll work with the tiptronic is an e-manage.

Didn't want to tread on any SAFC toes

[Guest Robo's]

So how much is the all round package of an E-Manage??

[666DAN]

A full kit would be in your hands for $700 (e-manage + both harnesses + software) at the moment, and you can install it in less than a day easy

It handles boost cut and atmospheric BOV idle too...it really does have some good features.

[Guest Robo's]

Hmmm, thats quite cheap to adjust fuel and ignition timing. How do you adjust it, do you have a hand controller or something or do you have to download on a PC.

If its $700 and is self managed, id be very interested, have you got a link?

[666DAN]

You need access to a laptop...seriously though I used to have PC in the garage with a long cable on it that reached into the car....as long as you've got a computer nearby you can adjust the settings.

The benefit is it takes literally seconds to type in the new settings whereas PFC contollers are time consuming

Have a good read about it at www.mohdparts.com If you're considering getting one, get it from this guy (Mohammed) as his service is second to none..very helpful.

[Guest Robo's]

How about fitting it?

Do you remove the standard computer?
