Good-day everyone. I am a new member & I have a simple question. Is the performance from the RB20DET AUTECH version different to the regular RB20DET ??????? I purchased a AUTECH RB20DET the front is purple not black, it even has ports for two additional injectors on the intercooler plumbing. Unfortunately someone stole my brain. Replaced it with a RB20DET but some how I think performance would be compromised. Anyone know for sure??????????

You can take heart in the fact that the Japanese Autech computer would have been tuned for different conditions and fuel, and you would probably have had to get an adjustable computer to tune it for your local conditions. What sort of fuel can you get in Trinidad?

The additional injectors would have been controlled by an aftermarket controller, there's no provisions in the standard (or modified standard) ECU system to run 8 injectors.

    • Hi guys, planning to get 18x9 +25 in fronts and 18x10 +25 in rears been reading the whole thread and cant really find anything   Anyone know if these will fit a r34 gtt with no scrubbing or guard work needed?
    • They usually get made by hand as part of any such swap.
    • Was planning on getting an R35 MAF and the adapter, should this be okay? Also any idea where I could get my hands on an intake pipe?
    • I mean yes, if you're starting from scratch on an unknown engine yes you don't need to be doing all kinds of math in the background but if you're doing relatively minor changes like AFM + injectors + boost up with some aftermarket turbos it takes quite a bit of math if you want to do something like maintain OEM fuel + timing tables but compressed and then a bit more load scale up top. I think I've spent too much time working on big engineering nightmares though so I'm a big fan of trying to constrain the scope of whatever work I'm doing as much as possible and trying to get it right before moving on. For example, a local owner just did the usual E85 + single turbo conversion to his R32 GTR and nearly burned his car to the ground doing some spirited driving up the local mountains. Turbine is unshielded and too close to the hood insulation. It's tough to balance "just get the project done" and "seemingly small details can cause massive setbacks I'm not willing to deal with".
    • No idea about Neil's steering wheel, but I have the same behaviour in the Stagea. I doubt it has ever been messed with so might be normal. Indicating to turn right at a roundabout and correcting even a little bit to the left to go around will cancel the indicator. Never considered it an issue other than it being a bit odd.
