Hello,

I have recently purchased an R32GTR and at very slight throttle cruising at 100-120 the car surges and when it surges the torque gauge bounces very slightly from what looks like 3% to 5% My vaccuum reads about 2-4 inches of mercurywhen this is happening.

Also at cruise in a GTR is 2 to 5 InHg of vaccuum correct. I have owned 3 previous skylines all gtst's and 2 180's and at cruise they have all read 10-15 inches at 100-120 kmh. Is there that much diff between the RB25 and RB26.

Thanx in advance. Michael...

What is the rolling diameter of your tyres like front to back.. ie are your front tyres new compared to the back, different brand, different size?

attessa will be happier if you have the largest rolling diameter on the back. otherwise you will get surge, as it sees the rears turning faster than the fronts and thinks 'wheelspin whoopie'.

vacuum sounds about right, less than I expected as well.

I have 255 40 17 on rear and 235 45 17 on front. The surging isnt there when the vehicle is cold and its not there when the car has warmed up either unless i have accelerated hard. It seems to surge alot more after my first initial hard acceleration. If i am very easy on the throttle the whole time i drive the car it will hardly surge after i boot it. it starts surging. I have bled the system which made it slightly better but now my torque gauge reads at about 8 when cruising at 110 where as before i had any surging problems the gauge only read between 3 and 5. Any ideas.

Thanx Michael...

Your rear tyres have a smaller rolling diameter at the back compared to the front - that is probably one reason why this is happening. With more tyre wear on the rear, I would say there is at least 1% difference in front to rear tyre speed.

    • Not stock. All remade. Mostly looks stock because the pipes run to and from the standard holes in the inner guard to get to the return flow FMIC. I'm not sure which question you're trying to ask, because it seems like "stock position" vs "stock position".
    • Hey, it's a GT-R, it's just as significant a moment as mine😁 It's not ideal when things are uncertain; I'm the type of person that always has a set plan for things in life so being unsure of this plan puts me in a weird place mentally.
    • Hows your intake piping? Are you still running stock? Having in the stock AFM position would mean, if the BOV was shut/venting out, it'd create the almost stalling kind of effect right // "the rich pulse behaviour" due to MAF thinking air is flowing ? But this would be better than having the bov in the stock position + MAF on/just before cross over piping right?
    • Essentially, yes. Although I wouldn't put the AFM on the crossover pipe. I'd want to put it into what amounts to the correct size tube, which is more easily done in the intercooler pipework. I bought a mount tube for card style AFM that replaces the stock AFM - although being a cheap AliExpress knockoff, it had no flange and I had to make and weld my own. But it is the same length and diameter as the stock RB AFM, goes on my airbox, etc etc. I don't have a sick enough rig to warrant anything different, and the swap will take 5 minutes (when I finally get around to it and the injectors & the dyno tune).
    • So to summarise, the best thing to do is to move recirc to between turbo and IC, and maf on the crossover pipe. Meaning I'd need a recirc flange, drill a hole in the piping on turbo outlet area. And drill hole on crossover to fit/weld maf sensor? Either that or put the MAF on the turbo inlet right?  Is an aftermarket recirc/blowoff valve recommended? Do currently have family in Japan so could probably bring something back with maybe a cheeky lil SuperAutobacs run?
