Hey guys,

Ive just installed a blitz boost controller on my r34 gtt, it seems to be boosting fine, though the boost readings on the controller seems to be wrong when compared to the stock gauge the car comes with. The controller also isnt showing vacum it is always on 0 is this normal or should it be showing vacum?

I set the controller to kpg/c2 (or wat eva it is) like the gauge on the car, and the car gauge shows under 0 this boost controller is showing boost, you can hear the solenoid ticking so it is boosting while the gauge shows vacum. When the boost peaks the reading on the boost controller is slightly higher than what the stock gauge is showing.

Anyone got any ideas? do you think the t-piece for the boost reading is connected to the wrong hose? anyone know where it should be connected on a R34 GTT?

Thanx.

The factory gauge isn't really worth a pinch of sh1t to tell you the truth.

Never believe a factory gauge to be really accurate.

Mine isn't.

What about the boost controller not showing vacuum is that normal on a blitz boost controller?? It use to be hooked up to my old car but i cant remember if it showed vacuum.

I connected it to the t-piece on the hose that comes of the boost sensor in the engine bay.

I've a SBC-iD on a R34GTT and mine shows vacuum but only small numbers (-12 for example not -700mmhg like the stock gauge)

Hi,

Do you have a pic of your engine bay you can post up or email me? I wanna make sure i have the boost t-piece connected to the right hose on the engine bay, i think its on the wrong one.

      RB20DE NEO smallbox clutch.

      So either way it is gearbox out and look what is wrong?  I know about the input shaft bearing. Even before swap/new clutch the it sounded exactly like this: So is that inout shaft bearing or the other was installed backwards?  And can some please tell me the part number for that input shaft bearing? The gearbox is small box from R34 N/A and number is FS5W71C. Thank you

      I am yet to see anyone ever regret a quaife or helical. ...other than drifting/skidpan duties. I kind of want to upgrade my factory helical with a Quaife (but really it's not ultimately that different, and is a MASSIVE UNDERTAKING), that's how good the hype is about them, that I want to try them 'just to see'

      D2 and Ksport are essentially the same thing and basically just generic Taiwanese manufacture. Better than ChinaBay crap, but... not top shelf. Öhlins have got to be some of the best dampers around, so likely to be a good option. It's going to get to the point though where I suggest you buy from Oz. We have at least 2x excellent options here. If I were you though, I'd be talking to KW about doing something for the R33. There's bugger all difference between that and the 32. In GTR land, anyway.

      KW only offers a set for the R32 GTR. Popular options are D2 racing, Ksport or Öhlins. I have a D2 Racing coilover set, though I don't know for sure which one.

      Well, the good news is you have more than one very good option for new coilovers in and around your country. Worth the drive over to KW to talk about GTR stuff.
