Oi SPEED!!!

SHOW US THE R+D PICS OF THE 'V8' FOR THE NEXT GT-R!!!

NO DICE???

DIDN'T THINK SO :thumbsup::P:p

I wish those knobs would stop perpetuating bullsh*t.

And I CANNOT BELIEVE they printed those ancient 'GT-Ah' Photochops... scraping the bottom of the barrel are we?

I have no respect for that rag.

Btw, HOW RIGHT WAS I??? They printed regurgitated info from my posts about the e-4WD and the electric spooled up turbos!!! Hahahaha ;)

Remember... you saw it in Speed... last!

Actually, I have been searching around and have found this new article highlighting the next GT-R which was just published the other day. Contains a very new photograph which I don't think I have seen before. Notice the agressive coupe styling of the rear, and the low coefficient of drag.

It says that apparently Nissan has had to work with a tight budget on the GT-R with the tight hand of Carlos Ghosn, so have unfortunately had to make some sacrifices along the way to meet fiscal targets. Personally, I think its a rather controversial move...

oh my god... the first paragaph's a riot... lets paraphrase...

"its made by some dude in germany... he dosen't have any official links to nissan... but it looks so cool and its a photochop of all the popular ideas put together (including the 350z interior in the car)... so he must work for nissan... therefore its the next GTR"

People will publish anything for a quick buck these days.

Skylines aside, I think SPEED's journalistic integrity can be summed up on the last page of it's current issue. They go into a full rant bagging the old exa turbo, and have a picture of the NA CA18 EXA to a go a long with the article.

Not surprised though, learning to expect nothing less from this great publication

      Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?

      RB25DE NEO with Haltech ECU

      By Haggerty · Posted

      I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.

      Could it really happen......

      I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
