Hey all,

Have sold the GTST and now im looking at a gtr...

Boostworxs have been great to me and helped out heaps. but they only have a 2wd dyno....

So now who do you guys use that are reptuable and trusted for tuning etc of the 4wd cars?

Cheers

how do they do it seeing as they only have a 2wd dyno??

drop the front driveshaft, pop the fuse, do the tune then get it ready for pickup.

I used to go to GWW but I feel boostwerx look after me with service and price

You dont need to do any mechanical mods to GTR's to dyno on 2wd, just pull out the ATTESSA fuse and the car goes to 2wd. Besides the dynotune is working on the engine, only needs one set of feedback from the rears to work (the only benefit in getting a 4wd dyno is that you can compare the power loss from the front driveshaft/diff assembly.. same way u can get it dynoed at the flywheel or the rear wheels, its just a question of application.)

If you're north of the city, I'd recommend Road & Track in collins st, enfield, their dyno guy Mikey has done excellent work on my gtr, from pulling 15 more kw out of thin air to getting rid of power sags. If you're down south tho, boostworx is the way to go (ive never been there but given the feedback on this board, he knows his stuff and doesnt charge an arm and a leg for it)

It's only on R32 GTRs that you can pull out the fuse to make them RWD. With R33 & R34 GTRs you to have drop the front driveshaft.

N1 turbos were made for all GTRs but are only standard on N1 or Nur GTRs. The R34 N1s are the only N1 turbos that have steel wheels instead of the ceramic exhaust wheel. There are also 3 different types of R34 GTR N1 turbos. You will find alot more info on them in the Forced Induction section.

so how will i be able to tell what ones they have on the car?? just by looking at them?

And they are a slight upgrade from standered?

I've had free horsepower before as well at other places.........the problem is, the way they usually get is by tuning your ECU to the point where they thin out the AFR's too much to the point of Too Lean and sometimes Detonation.......I always prefer slightly conservative tunes and my engine thanks me for it.

you will have to get the serial numbers from your turbo's. Iam running R34 N1 turbo's "Garret 2860r-7" on my GTR and pulling 314rwkw on 20psi. Tuned by Boostworx.

That's interesting.........I've got some -5's ready to go on with a PFC, full fuel, cams and intercooler upgrade so I'm hoping to pull at least those figures myself. Oh.....and a Kakimoto full dual N1 exh.

Did you have to do many other mods to get those figures?

    • I would not be surprised if you are the only person on earth that has the interest/desire to do that lol.  The Haltech base map is a really good starting point, the car will fire easily and drive very well, even on mild boost levels. To me, following your advice sounds like some sort of ancient Chinese water torcher lol (this is not an insult Josh, never change <3)
    • Those car show concepts from the 2000's and 2010's like the Floria and IDx were brilliant and should've gone ahead, at least one of them. But neither Honda nor Nissan are thinking about affordable performance any more, which is truly sad.  Even if Toyota's liquid hydrogen ICE development reaches the point where it's commercially viable and the infrastructure to support it, Honda/Nissan would have to wait until Toyota allow fee access to their patents to offer it with any smaller performance models they released to take advantage of it.  
    • A sporty manual RWD coupe with a IL4 Honda engine would only be a good thing I assume we won't see anything released for a few years though, unless informal talks and designs have been going on for a few years,  and due to the current, and future, emmisions and safety requirements, I assume anything "sporty" they would do would be at least some hybrid thingie And hopefully anything they are thinking of has nice lines, without lots of plastic and fake bits hanging off it like that horrendous FK8 that looked like it was designed by a 13 year old The other issue of course in the current market is cost, currently the type R is around $70k, a twin is around $50k Meh, I'm old and grumpy and would rather buy a older model car and waste my coin on that than buying anything currently available new
