I am using the jaycar one with the factory solenoid.

Ive had a play around with it, and it seems to be working better now. In relation to boost, I get full boost at something like 6 grand in 2nd

In relation 4th gear, I think i hit full boost 130/140 km/hr - wasnt watching the tachometer

Had absolutely no idea what i was doing, where i was going, etc.

Hehe .... it's a bit like that the first time out isn't it !

Well done on your first trip anyhow ... next time you won't have as many nerves as you're sitting on the line about to launch, thinking of all the people watching you! :blink:

what turbos u running on your car?

Cheers guys

Okay, in answer to your question, kabab, I think its something like 0.8 bar at 4000 rpm in 3rd

Forgot to check 3000 rpm in 3rd, but im guessing it would be around the 0.3 bar mark ?

I'm runnin GARRETT GT2560R's, also known as the GT2860R's. These are Garrett replacements to the Nissan R34 N1 turbos. They are 'apparently' rated at 320hp. There are no flow maps on the garrett website, 'yet'

Jim is a pretty good tuner. The a/f ratio is so damn straight, its almost unbelievable

Big difference in spool times there.

Do you have a built engine kabab?

The gt-ss are rated at 280hp arent they? While these are 320 hp. That would make a fair bit of difference. But hell, I can understand how responsive the SS's must be :(

Hks gtss's are rated @ 320ps just check here .

I dont know about .8 bar at 3000 on a stock engine but i get full boost at 3800 in 5th gear in my stock engine .

They dont have the top end that my old N1's had though .

You can keep your stock afms with the gtss's Kris unless you want to run huge boost ( above 1.2 bar ) .

I gotta say, it's a bit of a waste to use GT-SS's if you're only going to run 1.2 bar. They won't make much more than stock turbos at that boost level.

    • Welcome to Skyline ownership. Yes, it is entirely possible parts websites get things wrong. There's a whole world of inaccuracies out there when it comes to R34 stuff (and probably 33 and 32). Lots of things that are 'just bolt on, entirely interchangable' aren't. Even between S1 and S2 R34's. Yes they have a GTT item supposedly being 296mm. This is incorrect. I would call whoever you got them from and return them and let them know the GTT actually uses 310mm rotors. Depending on where you got them from your experience and success will obviously vary.
    • Hi...a bit a "development" on the brakes. I spoke to the guys where i get brakes from...and they are saying that 296mm EBC are for R34 GT-T. I then went to their site: https://www.ebcbrakes.com/vehicle/uk-row/NISSAN/Skyline (R34)/ and search for my car(R34 GT 1998 - it has GTT brakes) and it show me this USR1229 number and they are rly 296mm rotors... So now iam rly confused... The rotors i have now on the car are 310mm asi shown... So where is the problem? Does the whole EBC got it wrong or my calipers are just...idk know what?  
    • Oh What the hell, I used to get a "are you sure you want to reply, this thread is XX months old" message. Maybe a software update remove that. My bad.
    • This is a recipe for disaster* Note: Disaster is relative. The thing that often gets lost in threads like this is what is considered acceptable poke and compromise between what one person considers 'good' looks and what someone else does. The quoted specs would sit absurdly outside the guards with the spacers mentioned and need  REALLY thin tyres and a LOT of camber AND rolling the guards to fit. Some people love this. Some people consider this a ruined car. One thing is for certain though, rolling the guards is pretty much mandatory for any 'good' fitment (of either variety). It is often the difference between any fitment remotely close to the guards. "Not to mention the rears were like a mm from hitting the coilovers." I have a question though - This spec is VERY close to what I was planning to buy relative to the inboard suspension - I have an offset measuring tool on the way to confirm it. When you say "like a mm" do you mean literally 1mm? Or 2mm? Cause that's enough clearance for me in the rear :p I actually found the more limiting factor ISNT the coilover but the actual suspension arms. Did you take a look at how close those were?
