I am picking up my R32 GTR on Saturday (Fingers crossed), I have wanted to buy one of these for well over 10 years and have finally got there. The vehicle I have bought has the following mods;

*3.5in exhaust (possibly Apexi according to seller)

*Apexi Dual Pods

*HKS Hard piping kit

*Adjustable fuel pressure reg

*Adjustable boost (Good brand electronic one running 0.8 bar or 1.a little bit bar on high and manual settings)

it also possibly has the following

*Larger Injectors

*Played with standard ECU

*Z32 AFMs

It is these last parts that I am a little concerned about, Clearly if it has injectors and Z32s it also has the ECU, but it is the tuning of the ECU that worries me, I am having the car run on a 4 wheel Hub dyno after I pick it up to check mixtures, If everything here is ok then do I have any reason to worry?? When I inspected the car it ran fine, started first go and there was some fuel smoke while it was cold, it also had a pretty solid "bang" when lifting off from being on boost, so it does not sound as if it is lean but clearly there is more to it than that..

So basic question being:

IF it has Injectors, Z32s and the stock ECU, as long as the mixtures are ok do I need to worry about it or is it all sweet?

(I know answer does not come with Warranty)

Almost guarantee it will have a remapped stock ecu, if you dont want to do any mods to it i would either ensure you always run the best fuel you can get or retard the timing a few degrees, but get it checked on the dyno first, usually the jap tunes run rich, but too much timing for our fuel, which can cause detonation.

Standard BOVS as far as we can tell, also still unsure about Turbos, suspect standard until I prove otherwise.

Given it is the stock ECU it should still pick up Detonation though?? Or only once it gets bad enough??
