hi,

im just very confused right now about tunning a GTR........the tuner i prefer does not have a 4wd dyno, and he is going to take the front drive shaft out and tune my car on RWD mode.

would this actually affect anything on my car??? or does it do anything to Attessa system at all??

any info would be greatly appreciated.

cheers

How come ur using someone to tune ur car when they dont own a 4wd dyno? Maybe take it to somewhere that has a 4wd dyno and then u dont have to buggerise around with removing the driveshaft.

P.S frank, was over at dan's picking up some parts last nite, and gotta say lovely car u've get there mate :rofl:

nothing to worry about. many tuners only have RWD dyno. 4WD would be prefferable, but if all he has is RWD then disconecting the front prop shaft and running the car in RWD is no problem at all.

Frank i got my GTR tuned 2wd mode.... Richo at Allstar done mine, and he's only up the road from where you are... drop in and have a chat with him.. couldn't hurt...

Noy, was gonna pm you for some advice...thanx man

i know Richo is a really good tuner( got things done by him before), but he hates Power FCs as anything........

i am gonna get Gavin Wood and Matty Spry to tune mine next week....

once i get Motec or HalTec with other mods, i will bring it down to Richo, and then he will be gald to do it.

why would it matter if it was on a 2wd dyno or on a 4wd dyno, they are not awd they only use the front wheel drive when the rear wheels brake traction so really they are a RWD car untill the rear whells spin

not true at all. do you own or have you driven a GTR? AWD is computer controlled and is engaged under lots of different circumstances. a lot of the time there is some amount of FWD being engaged.

further to this the 33 & 34 gtr's always have some amount of front wheel drive, hence why u have to pop the front drive shaft to put in constant rwd

      Compressor flow comparison table

      I might have to shoot them an email. Pity the exchange rate is so bad at the moment. BTW, thanks for posting that table makes interesting reading.

      R32 update from 1990's spec.

      By robbo_rb180 · Posted

      Add these Sensors -Wideband, Oil Pressure, Fuel pressure, Intake air temp Good inspection of ignition system of coils, plugs and loom (12v feed and good ground)- a r35 kit is best bang for buck upgrade. A decent tuner should be able to see any issues with the trigger system- a link has good filtering but a good simple upgrade is the nz wiring bolt in kit. Check and replace all the fuel filters- you would be surprised at intank filter after a few years. Also good to check for any leaks on vac hoses and pipe work as has been said. No need to go overboard and spend big $$$ to enjoy the car. A quality tuner is getting harder to find as anyone with a laptop thinks they are a tuner. A link has great features to check sensor voltages and frequency inputs and easy to see live by pressing f12. The link can do a TPS & RPM fuel/ignition mapping on ITB cars then add a 4D table with MAP and ability to add a 5D to it (can help with economy at cruise with wheel speed vs TPS) Where are you located as that will help narrow down a good tuner ?

      Stagea Automatic Box

      By Wazmond · Posted

      Reviving an old thread, I reckon my stagea is starting to slip. Car usually gets parked on a hill, narrow driveway so cant go up the driveway smoothly, anyhows, lately first gear feels "sluggish"? Not responsive. Feels like I gotta run the engine more than usual to get off the line...  Any recommendations for transmission servicing in Sydney? Or possibly just an excuse to go manual ?

      Has anyone put in brand new full carpet? (not floor mats)

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Well, moulded carpets should fit well if the buck they use is the right shape. The finish is then just a case of stiching the trim around the edges. Shuoldn't be too hard to get it right. Back in the day, replacement carpets were all "fitted", in that they were stitched together, with cuts and slices taken out to make them form the shapes. Many more opportunities to get it wrong, hence all the concern over good vendors and bad vendors.
