so anyhting over 7-8psi and you had fuel cut 25t_sedan? Is it auto or manual?

If so, im am in the same position now as anything over 8psi and i got fuel cut. So, your tuner couldnt get the safc to help with the fuel cut at 9psi by bending the afm voltage...

how much did the hks fcd cost as when i get my safc installed if it experiences fuel cut still at my max boost of 10psi then i will be getting the hks fcd as well...thanks

ok....the timing was adjusted via CAS and Dyno.

Basically as far as i remember and i dont exactly know if this is correct as i may have forgotten details but my tuner explained everything to me very clearly but that was like 6 months ago so here we go.

As far as i understand....when u put the SAFC in and try bending AFM voltages it alters the voltage going to the ecu. So (just as an example) say your AFM was at 3 volts without the SAFC running 7 psi. Then you do an adjustment on your SAFC and it changes that voltage to say 4volts which could be equal to 12psi (what the computer is reading) even tho you are still only boosting 7-8 psi boost which is still fine but then when i tried increasing it any more than that .... the boost would increase by only 1psi but the boost that the comp was reading would be different and it would be supplying way too much fuel and therefore fuelcut.

Another problem that they came across was the FCD and the SAFC are meant to be hooked up to the AFM. When he installed the FCD it didnt do anything and it had the tuner thinking for a few minutes until they figured out that both the FCD and the SAFC were running off the AFM so he had to rewire the FCD to run of the MAP sensor instead.

Like i said i dont know if that stuff that i said above makes sense but my tuner explained this to me in some way like that :rofl:

The whole tune took 38 runs and total of 5 hours and the whole lot including the price of the FCD cost me $500. Out of that $500.. $250 was for the FCD. (keep in mind that this is NZ $)

By the way my car was an auto which has been converted to manual and is still running the auto ecu......Dont know if this would make any difference...

Basically at the moment im putting out about 190rwkws and at the time that it was 177 my car ran 13.5@170kmph, 60 foot was 2.2.....I was very happy with that time but now it has a bit more power and better tires so that time will drop to a low 13 hopefully a high 12 if the track is prepped for once :)

Hope this helps.....but just goes to show that the SAFC is definetly not useless :(

Oh yeah on my dyno it says 9 psi which was the peak boost for that particular run which it saw at 2800 rpm and then it was 8.5 the rest of the way to 7000rpm (redline) (shtty standard turbo and wastegate setup cant hold boost properly :))

    • Pads for R32 GTS-t, R32 GT-R non V-Spec (Sumitomo), R33 GTS-t and R34 GT-t are all interchangeable. R34 GT uses a 2x piston caliper, hence it didn't fit.
    • Checked with amayama and nope, the full S2 manual set is not available anymore. Unsurprising, but still disappointing as the ? on availability gave a glimmer of hope.
    • I've heard the Tomei USA head gaskets are decent if you want to o-ring the heads but otherwise not recommended.
    • The 296mm rotors are the R33 turbo brakes. The 310mm rotors are the R34 turbo brakes. The calipers are nearly the same, but not. They're the same caliper but the R34 caliper has longer legs so that it sits out far enough to go over the rotor. The pads are the same for both. When you say, "I bough tsome EBC"....did you just mean pads? Or rotors? 310mm rotors fit under 17" wheels. There may be some wheels without enough clearance though. I can't fit my fingers between the barrel of my wheel and the "corners" of my R34 calipers, but there is plenty of room behind the spokes. This is on Enkei RPF1. You can fit 324mm rotors inside a 17" wheel, but I'd be willing to bet that it would be close to impossible with the Nissan/Sumitomo caliper (using an adapter, of course), because the Sumitomo caliper is fatter than the Brembo caliper that is supposed to go on the 324mm rotors.
    • Hi. Can someone tell me what brakes(and mainly WHERE) can i buy brakes on R34 GTT? I bought some EBC which SHOULD go on my car(i have GT but it has GTT brakes) but it does not fit, Brakes are "too" small(296mm) Are 310mm be good or? I have 17 inch wheel so no "big boys" but for me driving i just need one that fits and i can get here in EU/Czech.
