Hey! Just bout my first NA skyline (P plates) and noticed she's as slow as a snail and has rough as guts idle. Wondering if

A. A remap would help solve some of this issue aswell as get some power back

B. Would a Nismo ecu or gtst aftermarket ecu be compatible with the NA?

A remap is not magic, it will not solve your idle issues. Any GTS-T ECU will not be compatible with an NA motor, the timing curves are completely different due to differing compression ratios.

An RB25DE makes about as much power as a modern economy car, the only way to change that appreciably is forced induction. Or if your engine is really in bad shape and needs a rebuild.

Bugger, all good thank you. Another quick question, would a FFP fit on an NA? I know there wouldn't be any power increase. Just looks

 

Although I think that it is possible, ask yourself is it worth it? A lot of effort (and money, unless you go a chinese FFP) for aesthetics.. If anything I think it will decrease the performance

The idle being rough is odd.
Fix that and you may get a bit of power back.
Probs somthin easy.

Realy gotta rev the n/a for some power but dont kill it. Reasearch oil control! If ya gonna give it a hard time.
Not a big deal bein n/a as long as oil is picked up during extended gforce at high rpm.

Plenty of peeps turbo high comp n/a motors this requires a remap or aftermarket ecu and some other upgrades like fuel pump , fuel regulator , injectors, manifold ect...
And for it to be a long lasting one they basicly modify the motor to suite valve springs , cams , pistons ect...

So it usualy works out cheaper to buy a turbo car that is already designed to run boost.

With the right tools and right materials we can make anything is possible.
With the wrong tools and wrong materials we learn whats right the hard way!

Or buy a Golf GTI, install an intake, a dump/downpipe, and flash it. Will go faster than a 200kW GTS-t boat and has all the luxury, features and safety.

This is a Skyline forum, not a best-bang-for-your-buck forum :P

I can confirm that this is fact as I also currently own a flashed MK4 Golf and it hoons

How much did it cost?

Unsure as I bought the car with the flash tune. I think the guy I purchased it off pulled the ECU and had it posted to them, they reflashed it and sent it back. A guy called Gavin did it what currently works for Underground Performance located in Melbourne

      R34 GT > GTT compatibilities

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      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...

      Rear hub bolt torque r34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The ones in brackets are the first stages of tightening. I usually aim for the middle of the range. They give a range because it's actually not that critical to hit exactly the right bolt tension. Enough is enough, and too much is too much, and the range given is inside that range. Half of the bolts in the suspension are problematic for putting a torque wrench on anyway, so just get done up to mechanic tight  and spanner checked a week later.

      Is the problem that we just disconnected the line, does it need to be plugged? I’d rather not buy another master cylinder

      Clutch is same same. Tailshaft is not. Diff will drop in. Half-shafts will not mate up (5x1 on turbo, 3x2 on NA). There is also the strong possibility that your auto NA gets its speed signal from the sensor on the diff, not the gearbag, and that will leave you without a speedo. You can do all this, you just have to do a lot more than you thought.
