LoL, which was your car - he had plenty of cars there.

I have a pair of 25/30's but swapping them over for some 2860-7s, so if i make around 350 im a happy camper.

But yea hes pushing me to e85 and single haha doubt he wants the 9's since he has 7s and is making 355 already. He said next up is single once he gets the haltech.

9s make more power than 7s

I'm all about response. I like to sit in 4th at 100 and have near instant boost at those speeds. In Barry's 34 I had to wait a couple of secs before they did anything. It's a quick car once it gets on though.

E85 is the way to go man, even without a turbo upgrade. So much better midrange.

Was that your red gtt or the yellow one?

Hopefully since I understand the language he will do my car first then Birdies haha xD

Ah yea I saw it parked and your new clutch at work! Seems very nice, apart from changing the muffler its looking very nice.

Haha yea thats my 34, but turbo swap, injectors, and a haltech are yet to be done. So ill be waiting a while so I envy you hehe

I used to have a GTT was always fun to slide :D

Lol -5s laggy must be a shit tuner...

 

Mine comes on almost instantly :)

If that was directed at me, I mean the lag as in what rpm you ramp up to full boost

I want it from 3500 max in the 26/30

I'm saying my old set up with -5s

 

A well known tuner (on this forum) tuned it and the car was a laggy pos.

 

Took it to another tuner and the car came to life, felt like it was 10 times more responsive. 

 

So I'm saying pick the right tuner :)

    • Oh yeah forgot to also mention need to also unplug the IACV as well. Thanks for the reminder @MBS206 Unplugging the TPS takes it out of closed loop so you're able to screw down the IACV without the ECU trying to add/subtract timing to maintain the idle (not sure PowerFC can even do this, but Nistune and the OEM definitely does)
    • For sale is my 1999 Nissan Skyline R34 GT-T, tuned to 234 kW / 313 hp. I've had the car for a few years as my daily driver. The car is original (as far as Skylines go), with only a few minor upgrades to enhance performance and driving experience, as typical for such a car of its age. Overall, it is in great condition with no body rust, thanks to its earlier import date. It features a top-notch security system (not literally, but it's great!) with remote start and still functional 4-wheel steering via HICAS. It comes with several performance and handling upgrades, including:     Hypergear 450HP Turbocharger running 17 PSI boost, installed mid-2021 by Jaustech     550cc injectors     Nistune ECU     Front-Mount Return-Flow Intercooler     X-Force Stainless Steel Exhaust     Upgraded engine mounts     Bottom end bearings replaced     BC Coilovers     Lenso DR1 rims     Bridgestone Potenza Adrenalin RE003 TL 245/40R18 97W tires, fitted early 2023 The interior is mostly stock, with a few additions:     Viper Satellite Tracking System with remote start     Bluetooth Double-Din Touchscreen Head Unit     Steering wheel cover Cons:     A few paint imperfections here and there     Driver’s seat shows more wear than the others. It's not torn at all, but I've added a seat cover to protect its condition. I also have a CarVX Vehicle History report available for serious buyers, so you don’t need to purchase it yourself. Price: $26,000 ONO.
    • I've had two suzukis in the past have an extremely hard time turning over and not starting after sitting for a few weeks. Ended up the alternator would seize up causing the starter to force. Same issue both times.  Maybe they're sourcing their alternators from the same place...
    • Ah right. Maybe my rb just loves chewing through batteries lol.
    • On the R34 can't you just unplug the IACV? This is the way I've always done it on the R33. Disconnect IACV, get it idling around 650rpm, and then do a power reset on the ECU to get it to relearn idle (factory ECU).   The big reason no one has touched on as to why you'd want to get the base idle right, is that it means the computer needs to make smaller adjustments to get a good idle at 700-750rpm.   Also, cleaning the IACV won't normally make the car suddenly idle lower or higher. The main issue with the IACV gumming up is that the valve sticks. This means the inputs the ECU gives, aren't translating to changes in air flow. This can cause idle choppy ness as the ECU is now needing to give a lot of input to get movement, but then it moves too far, and then has to do the same in reverse, and it can mean the ECU can't catch stalls quickly either.
