Not sure what kind of knowledge you have with cars/tuning, but if you don't know much about these cars it may be worth getting someone else who does know them to tune it, but if you are from where your location says then, good luck :D

Yes, I am from trinidad and I am not too familar with this car and engine, I've tuned a couple WRXs and I work more on the Dragster's here. I do the electrical, computer and nitrous systems on the Rails. http://www.partytimeracing.20megsfree.com and http://www.mintcars.20megsfree.com.

I need information like the stock timing, if the car has a MAP sensor, the max boost on the stock engine etc. I already did some tuning on the car but I think I have not been able to get the full potential of the engine as yet.

the car has 2 airflow meters from factory,it has a map sensor but its for the gauge only and has no effect on the ecu.....the factory base timing is 15-20 degree's with the bac valve and tps disconnected....as for the link ecu,throw the thing up in the air and run as far away from it as possible before gravity brings it back to earth

There are no mods on the car as yet. The owner was told that the link would be able to faciliate upgrades later-on when he did any modifications. I'm stuck with it right now. I will have to do the best I can with it. It is twin turbo (stock), only 14 psi each (I think). What is the "bac valve"?. Where can I download a manual for this car (in english)?. I may be able to split the MAP sensor and send a signal to the link since it uses TPS and MAP for control. Do you think its better to run the car on TPS control alone?.

...why do you want to fit that useless peice of crap to the car?....

The owner of the car already had it installed in the car. He was duped into buying it. The original installer could not get the car working good, so they brought the car by me. I work on his Dragster so he thinks I can do a better job than the installer. I did manage to get his Idle down and the surging also the trottle response. I still have the boost problem where I need to retard for the boost and map fuel for higher speeds. The car is running rich at the moment but I had to leave it like that because the installer had the link set up for max boost and not incremental. I will have to find out what the installer did and get back to you. I know for a fact that the car is not firing sequential since they set it up for group injector firing, this I also have to fix. Do you have an e-mail address I can write to.

ylwgtr2 knows his stuff so whatever he tells you i'd believe :D

If its a stock RB26, stock turbos, 14psi is on the safe side... if you want a push a little more a lot of people run 1 - 1.1bar on stock turbos... power with stock turbos and stock fuel system will probably net you around 250-280rwkw

throw it out and tell him to put the stocker back in?

or maybe just buy a power FC mate

I contacted one of the tuners at LINK and he told me that they have got 295+HP from the stock R34GTR (at the wheels, without any mods) and with additional mods it can only go up. Then again, I am from Trinidad in the West Indies so I have to take what they say.

as I progress with the tune I will let you guys know. One thing, you can really get addicted to driving the R34GTR.

      gtr hood match gt/gtt front fenders?

      By JC71 · Posted

      would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)

      You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.

      R32 gtr transmission strength, billet plate

      By cosline · Posted

      Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
