Here's a heads-up to any SAU'ers chasing an elusive R34 GTR RB26DETT.I have it on very good authority that this engine has less than 15,000 genuine kilometres on it (in RB speak-it's only just broken in...). Those in the know will already recognise the R34 spec' engine as a superior RB series to what I have in my car and any of the R32 GTR's. If you're not up to speed, the 34 RB26DETT had different lift and duration on the factory "bumpsticks"- which is one of the reasons why 34's have more Kw and torque straight out of the box over other GTR engines. You can't retro fit these cams to earlier engines; the head had a totally different casting to make the camshafts fit. Plus the 34 block has the same strengthening "webbing" that the fabled N1 blocks have: much better strength once you start to lean on these engines. This particular engine is a long motor: no turbos or plenum. Everything else is there. It’s a good mate's engine, and he's not asking the world for it (believe me, if I had the funds available, you lot wouldn't be reading this now!). Whilst the engine is easily viewable, I don't need a million wannabe engine tuners wasting his time; if you're SERIOUSLY considering the best of the RB26's, drop me a PM and I'll put you onto him. The offer is there: those wise enough to know what this thing is, better get scooting!!

No. They are the same but with different lobe centers.

The enter key makes posts soooo much easier to read. :D

Cubes' date=' that just doesn't make sense.

How can they be the same if they have different lobe centers ?[/quote']

You said the lift and duration are different, but they are the same. The lobe centres are the only thing that have changed. This could be replicated with adjustable cam gears if you were keen.

    • If you take the top half of the intake off you can unbolt the flap off the shaft and leave the shaft in there blocking the hole. Then you can remove the little vacuum canister off from under the manifold and get a spare vacuum line to run to the ECU. I can take some photos of it later. Probably best to get the vacuum source to the ECU sorted first though. Mine all worked mint with the base map from the GTT an I've pretty much let the closed loop sort the fueling and took 1 degree out of the whole timing map.
    • This IS something you also have to configure in Haltech (or at least I did in the past when going from onboard-to-ECU map sensor and an external MAP sensor in haltech land).
    • I'm hoping it's something as simple as the ECU is looking for an external MAP sensor, but he is trying to use the onboard MAP sensor.
    • You won't need to do that if your happy to learn to tune it yourself. You 100% do not need to do that. It is not part of the learning process. It's not like driving on track and 'finding the limit by stepping over the limit'. You should not ever accidently blow up an engine and you should have setup the ECU's engine protection to save you from yourself while you are learning anyway. Plenty of us have tuned their own cars, myself included. We still come here for advice/guidance/new ideas etc.  What have you been doing so far to learn how to tune?
    • Put the ECU's MAP line in your mouth. Blow as hard as you can. You should be able to see about 10 kPa, maybe 15 kPa positive pressure. Suck on it. You should be able to generate a decent vacuum to about the same level also. Note that this is only ~2 psi either way. If the MAP is reading -5 psi all the time, ignition on, engine running or not, driving around or not, then it is severely f**ked. Also, you SHOULD NOT BE DRIVING IT WITHOUT A LOAD REFERENCE. You will break the engine. Badly.
