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.

      Thanks for the linkie. Certainly always a great deal of help when people post comparisons like these, but I think for now I'll stay away from any semi slicks. I did go ahead and order the sportcontact 7. My buddy has them on his modified A4 and he keeps saying how good they are. For my intended purposes these will probably work real well. I'll report on them once I had the chance to try them out

      Talk about noisy. Even when I still had the Tomei under the car I could distinctly hear the tires rolling. And I doubt I ever will need maximum grip like on a track. My GTR will maybe never even see the 600hp mark and I need to get used to the car quite a bit before challenging the limits of its handling. For the next winter storage I think I will get a set of these rubber drive-on thingies that have a tire shaped base. Those supposedly really help prevent flat spots.

      Well our climate is definitely way less hot overall and the weather can be quite picky at times. I just know that during normal road use or even spirited drives there is no way I'd be able to consistently stay in the operating temperature, and constantly changing the tire pressure would also be a royal pain.

      Input shaft bearing. They all do it. There is always rollover noise in Nissan boxes - particularly the big box. Don't worry about it unless it gets really growly.

      For once a good news  It needed to be adjusted by that one nut and it is ok  At least something was easy But thank you very much for help. But a small issue is now(gearbox) that when the car is stationary you can hear "clinking" from gearbox so some of the bearing is 100% not that happy... It goes away once you push clutch so it is 100% gearbox. Just if you know...what that bearing could be? It sounding like "spun bearing" but it is louder.
