unless you have an aftermarket ecu it can't be tuned.

10psi is ok for the stock cooler, but you are better off with a front mount because the stock cooler is tiny and suffers from heat soak exceptionally fast.

as for flutter, you won't get it just by adding a pod, however you will be able to hear the induction noise and bov noise better.

what do you mean it cant be tuned..you can still adjust timing and idle without an ECU and you can gap your spark plugs..that is tuning... Not that you should need to but it doesnt hurt to have it checked..

Maybe Ideally I should of said go get a dynorun but who cares..

On the street the stock cooler is adequate as long as your not driving around on redline..it is also more responsive

and what noise does a BOV make..flutter and with a pod you will hear it more so yes it will flutter a bit just by adding a pod..mine did..

Your gay tonight Mad go ride your bike...

You are no where!!

He asked for someone with knowledge, get out of this thread.

screw you hippy....my car ran 11psi thru a stock cooler and a pod and quite happily made 185kws all day everyday for years and it used to flutter when I lifted off so how am I no where ??

Maybe it is you that has no knowledge as you have offered nothing in the form of opinion other than to disagree with me..

So get outta my face

ARTZ - are the letters RET missing from the front of your username?

with a stock bov, you will not hear flutter. if the bov is blocked you will hear flutter.

the guy is talking about his skyline not a carb POS.

the stock R33 ecu can't be tuned.

you have the option of modifying it or replacing it with an aftermarket one.

or go real cheap and get a signal bender like SAFC so you can make changes to a:f ratios.

Adjusting Timing and idle and spark plug gap is tuning for a valiant.

OP - 10psi is fine (especially in tasmania) but you may come across the missfire type CUTOUT on cold nights on 10psi with no tuning and stock 20 year old coil packs.

If you want Flutter like you hear on silvias or your favourite japanese high power cars on youtube, you will need to block off the factory bov (not recommended).

I can tune my suspension but it doesnt have an ECU

I can tune my radio, again no ECU

I can tune a guitar it also has no ECU

and yes I can tune my skyline to some extent without touching the ECU..

And as tilksie said you CAN remap a stock ECU which is tuning it

are you trying to tell me I should not adjust my timing idle or spark plug gap on my skyline, because all have been adjusted at some point or another..shit should I change them all back to stock :O

Now OP obviously has limited knowledge here and all I was implying is that he has his car checked out by a professional after changing things like boost and filters. At no point did I suggest he change his timing I was just making a point that other things can be tuned not just the ECU....

when you put a pod on the the BOV air mixes with the turbo reverb and causes somewhat of a flutter noise when you back off, no it isnt Hektik BOV flutter but it is a flutter noise none the less..

But you know it all numskulls come in here with your tiny ewang in your hand and your limited knowledge of bullshit and try to belittle me.. . bring it on fags Ive had a shit week and Im just in the mood for your BS..

      Yeah, but the narrowband is truly narrowband. So you take it out of the linear zone and it is effectively nonsense. And that linear zone is so literally narrow, that nonsense is not very far away. Unless they are flicking back and forth across the stoich point, for real, under actual control, they can't be trusted for anything except entertainment value.

      I agree, and yet my "HRM " hat is also on, as his wideband is in disagreement with the narrowband where they used to play closer attention to each other.

      That's the thing. Especially at idle, changing the cam angle by that much could be spewing more fuel out the exhaust courtesy of everything happening that bit later. More fuel also means more air (if the fuel didn't burn, then neither did the O2) and so the O2 sensors can start to tell interesting but misleading stories. And the specifics of what is happening could easily be affected by everything else you changed as well. And it could be dynamic, where a few revs more or less could somewhat change how the engine is breathing.

      Good idea on the temp probe. The mv readings of the O2 sensors are very similar to one another, as is the injector pw. I went through logs in the past to see if there was a discrepancy and there is. Because they alternate up and down as narrowbands do.. they do often 'switch' as to which one is more. They were never 20%+ (more like 1-2%) so it's possible the difference between 20 and 15-17% is a similar discrepancy to 2.0% and 1.7% which I wouldn't have really noticed in the past. We did think about spacing the strut brace. Unfortunately the ~20mm that the GTR brace is lower than the GTT brace is effectively what you need to clear the vents. Moving it up would make it very uncomfortable, but it's plausible that 10mm is a unhappy medium between both hard places... The good news is.. using MR HAMMER it was actually pretty easy to bend back the bent bits to make sure the guard and headlight/new headlight tabs line up right. Yes, we used a R34 GTR guard to make sure the bolt holes all lined up with a known straight guard. As above, you can see the side skirt and the GTR guard are not meant to play together, but everyone seems to think this is a simple fix to the point where nobody who has had these talk to one another mentions how... ...so I'll just assume they know how to fix it when it comes to paint jail time again. Whoever they are. Nobody returns my calls. There's so much changed with regard to the ECU and the car.. that the next step really is to connect the scanner and attempt to drive the thing. It'll be pretty clear pretty fast how in or out everything actually is...

      That's nasty! I think there is perhaps an inherent problem is using elastomers in such environments. The whole thing can and will get quite hot, and elastomers are not famous for their temperature resistance. On top of that, if the components are cast rubber or urethane and so on, there might be QA/QC problems with bubbles or voids in the material that could critically change their performance. They might just tear apart after being squished (presuming that any elastomers are used in compression rather than tension, I'm thinking that you squeeze one with a void in it and it tears the wall of the void to the outer edge of block, then the next time it extends or otherwise twists, it just gives up). This is all purely hypothetical, but it makes me wonder if the things that they have put into it to make it nice to use/live with are perhaps going to cause occasional failures like this. I wouldn't be getting up in arms over it, unless there are many repeats. I have personally ruined an Xtreme clutch - just an HD thing. I can't remember if it was still behind the 20 or was after the 25 went in. But it inverted some of the retaining spring/clip things around the outside. No-one could explain it. It wasn't thrashed, there wasn't heaps of torque being put through it, and there were no obvious problems other than the above. They were quite concerned by the event so they replaced it even though it was a few years old, which was very nice of them. As far as I am concerned, these things happen with clutches.
