Guys im interested in the basic FMIC conversion from the existing side mount type for my r34 Gtt. Im assuming there's a bolt on kit out there somewhere that will do the trick without requiring any major modifications to the car itself. The front bar is not an issue as it will be coming off in favour of a kit.

Im keeping boost stock for some time so i dont need something crazy. Just a cooler well suited to daily driving that will fit nicely in the front without having to cut sick. (ie follow the existing pipe cutouts) I dont even know if im going to bother with a BOV as its an auto anyway.

Ive checked the supplier area and had a bit of a search for what im trying to do but havnt had any luck, but i know it's got to be a commonly done thing. Can someone point me in the right direction for a thread DIY style, or a manufacturer / supplier that supplies the kit i want???

Are you looking at spending large?

Blitz LM is an excellent kit too. Just costs more.

I read the JJR ones dont exactly "bolt on" with the brackets they come with. Do a quick search theres a thread or two about them.

Greddy / Trust do a return style intercooler specifically for the R34 GTT I have the same one fitted to my S2 Stagea. These bolt straight on with no mods. From memory they are slightly cheaper than the Blitz items also but they will still be more expensive than the Just Jap ones. I think I have also seen return style Cooling Pro kits for around $550 maybe do a search for these as I have heard these are pretty good.

pm R34 Wong. he is selling his ARC return flow FMIC. it uses the same path as your current IC pipes and no holes required to cut out. and its one of the good coolers recommended

      For sure the later RB26 variants had a different setup (6 cam voltage sender?), but the RB25DE/DET share the same ECU pinout/PCB footprint, and at the ECU plug it ends up being 'throttle sensor in' & 'throttle sensor out' (to A/T TCU) ...you stick a multimeter on these pins and you'll find them directly connected (0 ohms) ; I had an pair of Nissan ECUs on the bench long ago, and I noticed this throttle sensor in/out link, actually linked to an op-amp ...which was unpopulated on the NA board, but present on the T board and I went 'ah-ha!' in some moment of clarity... ...it wouldn't surprise me if they changed strategy here though (in the software and actual monitoring of this signal), because they did with other stuff (A/T signals).. and 0.45v as a trigger point makes sense, as that's what the external TCU units expect at idle ; kudos, thanks for that insight...I suppose it boils down to whether or not Consult can display real time data of that signal's voltage... ...in any event, it presents the same target...ie; rotate TPS unit to achieve 0.45v to suit both ECU&TCU, and where do you goto from there? Just disconnect TPSwitch connector and/or that plus TPSensor connector....or do you go for the throat and disconnect IACV solenoid and see if it still stalls? (probably throws a recoverable fault code and goes for default idle strategy?)...

      I’m also conscious that e85 is slowly being phased out. Not all United’s have them anymore. Can’t take the risk of being low on petrol and assuming the servo will have it.

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      MR HAMMER has said his piece. Painted up to avoid Rusty Rusty. Actually lines up well. (i.e it lines up the same as the unmolested GTR guard). Turns out the GTR Strut brace does foul on the bonnet vents ever so slightly. May need a little bendy bendy if intended to keep using with a strut brace. So spacing it out to clear the FAST102 is not an option. Annoyingly, the bonnet vents also foul on the heater lines running over the engine. Given this engine does not EVER require a heater, a delete loop is going to be used. Don't worry, the defogger uses the AC. The heater is basically "Do not use the aircon and turn the fan on". It will still be effective, I promise.... once I get the system regassed... Will have to revisit with unvented bonnet I suppose, and suitable strut brace. There's plans to do this and other things tonight and bleed brakes (there was a weep) and put the bumper back on, and take Good Friday morning - Because troubleshooting on the side of the road limping it home at midnight tonight is ... not very smart.
