Hey all

I have an r32 gtr and want some advice on how to keep it within the 'stock' limits... so far it has a k&n a/f, x-force dumps & front pipe, std cat, and blitz nur cat-back sys. without the x-force pipes etc on it, it made 250rwhp (184rwkw) on standard boost.. hoping for 270rwhp with the x-force gear on it....

will i need to change the exhaust etc before selling it (within 2yrs) to be able to advertise as a nice, stock example??

any help would be great..

If you've already modified it, why are you going to sell it as a stock example...?

How are you gonna feel when you advertise your car as stock in 2 years time and i bring this thread back up...? If you are going to be dishonest, at least be smart about it.

A decent exhaust is a bonus on any car bought. Enjoy your car for how long ever you will than advertise it as it stands. If it's still in good condition and passes the buyer's tests, you don't have to lie about anything.

yeah.. i've just had a look and the boost restrictor (little brass plug with a 3mm hole in it??) is still in the line around a yellow stripe... i had it dynoed at 250hp at the rear wheels on standard boost!

ill look into getting a high flow cat.. i read in zoom that the standard one is quite good though... either way.. thanks heaps guys

look at getting the magic 4" type cats that flow more than a 3" high flow, dump pipes that divide wastegate gasses from turbine outlet

Not cheap things though.

K&N filter if you have stock airbox.

NGK iridium tip plugs

under drive pulley kit?

(power to weight ratio) take any extra weight out of your car, passengers, seats, dont run any more than 1/2 tank of fuel

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
