The R34 GTT ECU and TCU are contained in the one unit.

I have had my transmission rebuilt and I'm told it can handle 300rwkw without needing the soft landing, ie timing drop, that the stock ECU does.

I was reading Sydneykid's thread on the SITC and thought perhaps I need a piggyback ECU that goes between the stock ECU and the coils.

Which ones do this? Unichip?

Then I had a brain wave.

What if I get a PFC and plug most of the wires into it so it can run the engine. Then run extensions to the signal wires that the TCU requires to run the auto transmission over to the stock ECU so that both the PFC and the stock ECU will be receiving input from all the sensors.

Any wires that are sending information from the stock ECU to the engine will not be connected. The wires that send information the transmsission would be connected.

What do you all think?

adam, the pfc will run an auto car. The only problem is flaring on the shifts as it doesn't pull back timing for the shifts.

I can't see your theory working but I am waiting to be proved wrong. :)

Why can't you just wait for darkhalf's boards? hehe

I did think there shouldn't be any clear reason with enough wiring to run both ECU's simultaneously it shouldn't work??

I haven't seen any previous mention of this on here..

Any reason why?? other than the ~$1000 pricetag of course. I guess for R34 they have a slightly different version of the autos.

The shifts wont flare on my car because my gears changes are too tight.

I know there is the odd R33 with PFC but don't R33's have a separate controller for the auto? What happens if I press the button on my steering wheel with a PFC and nothing else? Probably nothing cos it wont be connected to anything.

Adaptronic 440. It has a lot of integrated features which can save you money, ie boost control, serial input for a wideband, programmable outputs, plus some neat adaptive tuning features, ie with a wideband it can automatically alter a fuel map (though best results are done manually). Plus theres a flex fuel functionality if you're interested in e85.

Just be mindful that you're starting from scratch with ignition and fuel maps, so the learning curve is very steep. Although there are base maps available, they arent very good. You'll need to learn how to tune yourself, even in conjunction with a tuner.

i was looking at other options to have a true 4" intake without going down to 3" for the z32, or not having to run a z32 in the cooler piping thats all

Nistune is not limited to running Z32 AFM. You can install an R35 AFM sensor into a 1000mm drainpipe if you want and set Nistune up to run with that.

    • 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.
