My Non V-spec R34 has the nismo version 2 MDF and i can see the intake and exhaust temp.. Not too sure wheree the sensor is located tho...

Cheers.

Matt

There are temp sensors located in the drivers side of the intercooler core, and the dump pipe just before the front pipe flange. They only provide signals for the MFD and dont link into the ecu.

The nismo upgrade kits do come with extra sensors, too depending on what type/version. Like 2 bar reading map sensor, instead of 1.2bar.

Also, I'm going to add upgraded swaybars to my list :P.

Thanks! Got an e boost street, black box. Nice and compact.

Damn you Steve-o!! My R32 would of been mad fun on texi!

A couple of pics when I was parked at texi. Surprise upgrade visually is the nismo sideskirt extensions that help fatten car lol.

Mate of mine painted em for me after I fixed em up and got 2 pac dg white colour matched.

Got the wastegate actuators and fitted em up. Was a real pain to do as there is no room, but all good now.

Also got a hold of a nismo cat converter to help free up the exhaust a bit more. I'll fit it up when I can be bothered crawling under the car again.

Sway bars have been ordered in too. :P

why not just get a standard high flow cat from ebay etc? like a 120CPI?

There is a place for EBay parts.... and they call them GTST's.

Nobody in their right mind puts ebay parts on their GTR(unless its wearing a genuine Nismo, or equalivent brand name).

Can i ask, is it still wearing TE-37 look a like ROTA's, how are those.... lot of people say "mean" things about ROTA wheels... :thumbsup:

Will be interested !!!!

but dam they look the bizzz

I don't usually get ebay gear, just my choice.

I've had a metal cat (barrel type) fall to bits on my last car, and it was a well known one too. Don't think an ebay one would handle it!

Yep HKS actuators. Came with crush washers, zip ties, hose, t piece, instructions and yellow jap stickers lol.

I'm very happy with the Rota's, considering they only cost me $1300, not including tyres. Would of liked more dish, and they would look better if I lowered the car :P

I'd love some advans or similar, but don't have $3800+ handy :laugh:

The only thing I had to get was hub rings to center the wheels on the hub. If the stock wheels had an offset of +12 I wouldn't need the rota's!

Fitted the sway bars this weekend, less roll now, and one of the guys thought I had aftermarket coilovers lol.

Nismo cat is in. You don't notice how bad the compliance/high flows are until you get a better cat!

Got a brand new HKS High power silent stainless steel exhaust and fitted that too, so shiny! Now there is no more kinked bend piping, crappy resonators and horrible drone.

It is nice and quiet when you want it to be and has a great note when the go pedal is pushed.

It all bolted up sweet and everything clears, no more exhaust hitting the rear diffuser either.

Now the engine is willing to rev out a lot more. Me thinks it needs a dyno tune to 'optimise' the setup! Will soon be reaching the limits of stock fuel injectors and AFM's.

Also got a brake master cylinder stopper to fit at some point.

Next on the list once my wallet recovers is probably rego.

Still have to get:

Nismo MFD upgrade

New front rotors

fire extinguisher

    • My hold point for future mods is that I want a OEM detachable hard top first, but, finding one is a pain, MX5 Mania are looking for one for me, but, as hens teeth are more common, finding one in Australia is proving problematic  I can get a OEM one from overseas, hell, you can still get new ones in 'Merica, but, shipping is a absolute killer and I cannot justify the cost, or the risk of it being damaged during transport As for the aftermarket hardtops, whilst they do the job of being a hard top, and are fine for a track car, they don't seal well (read: leak like a sieve in the rain), and you need a plastic/poly rear window, plus they are a bolt in option only and not made to be easily removed I liked how the hard top on my NB could be fitted, and removed, by myself, in less than 5 minutes I know it sounds bad, but I'm waiting for someone to write off a car with one so I can swoop in on their pain, it will go to a good home though, so my guilt of this is tempered
    • I’ve got one on mine and it’s fine, 
    • No, you don't want to plug the vacuum line, as that will turn that side of the booster into an air spring and probably make it feel worse. I'm not saying that the GTR master itself doesn't need a booster. I haven't paid attention to the GTR one to know what size it is cf the non-GTR ones. But when you think about it - they have to do the same job, which is to move a little slave piston a few mm to do what it is supposed to do, and that final action is the same on all the cars. So, it is very unlikely that the GTR MC is any different than the others, because it has the same pedal stroke and the same output requirement. The booster just makes it feel easier. I'd suggest you probably have an actual hydraulic problem. It's totally common on these old shitboxes.
    • Ye, in terms of bolting up the "Conversion" from a GT to a GTT is effectively "Use GTT parts for everything" Except the subframe itself, because you won't want a HICAS/4WS subframe. Remember your ABS system will be different too, thanks to GT being the S15 3 sensor system, instead of the R34 4 sensor system for wheel speed. I do not know how people get this to work given R34 diffs do not have a provision for an ABS sensor (they are on the tone wheels of the axles). I assume***** people use S15 gear/R34NA forever when they realize this - Or they convert it to a rear diff/axles that are R33 style which I presume has the singular speed sensor on the diff itself, but then you have to wire it all in and...and... and...
