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

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 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      What can't be done with a little bit of decking board or similar timber bolted to a hub flange via 2 wheel nuts is not worth talking about.

      R34 GTT idle problem

      By silviaz · Posted

      I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well)  Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.

      So for both general interest of engine health, and to rule out any coolant/oil issues, I organised an oil analysis done on the 125,000klm oil Results below, all good, just a bit of fuel dilution which I'm not too worried about

      This is actually a really good way of measuring what wheels fit. If only there was a similar measurement between hub face and suspension :p That said, it's probably pretty simple to actually measure it all with the wheel off the car for the rear. The front is a bit more complex but..

      R34 Gtt Wheel Offset Advice

      By AdiR34 · Posted

      Being the top Google search result for R34 wheel-related inquiries, lemme throw down my experience. I calculated that 100mm from hub face to wheel face is about the perfect fitment for my ENR34 sedan.  I've been running 18x8.5s, ET35, with a 1" spacer. So, 8.5in to mm = 216mm. 216/2 = 108mm. 108-35 = 73mm. 73+ 25 (1" to mm) = 98mm.  If you wanna get close to this on dif widths, here are the offsets you'll want: 9" - ET around 15mm 9.5" - ET around 20mm 10" - you're crazy, but ET around 30mm All these should fit perfectly on a non-widebody, non-GTR Skyline. Note that it's probably the absolute max, and you're probably better off running a couple degrees of camber in this config, but it looks great, super flush.
