Hey guys,

Ive just installed a blitz boost controller on my r34 gtt, it seems to be boosting fine, though the boost readings on the controller seems to be wrong when compared to the stock gauge the car comes with. The controller also isnt showing vacum it is always on 0 is this normal or should it be showing vacum?

I set the controller to kpg/c2 (or wat eva it is) like the gauge on the car, and the car gauge shows under 0 this boost controller is showing boost, you can hear the solenoid ticking so it is boosting while the gauge shows vacum. When the boost peaks the reading on the boost controller is slightly higher than what the stock gauge is showing.

Anyone got any ideas? do you think the t-piece for the boost reading is connected to the wrong hose? anyone know where it should be connected on a R34 GTT?

Thanx.

The factory gauge isn't really worth a pinch of sh1t to tell you the truth.

Never believe a factory gauge to be really accurate.

Mine isn't.

What about the boost controller not showing vacuum is that normal on a blitz boost controller?? It use to be hooked up to my old car but i cant remember if it showed vacuum.

I connected it to the t-piece on the hose that comes of the boost sensor in the engine bay.

I've a SBC-iD on a R34GTT and mine shows vacuum but only small numbers (-12 for example not -700mmhg like the stock gauge)

Hi,

Do you have a pic of your engine bay you can post up or email me? I wanna make sure i have the boost t-piece connected to the right hose on the engine bay, i think its on the wrong one.

      Stock rb25det neo questions

      By Wazmond · Posted

      Hey lads, reviving an old thread.  As an update, since the last time replied to this thread, ive done mostly suspension. Havent touched the motor except for maintenance. Though upon changing spark plugs, found out i had splitfires pre-installed! Updates: - Got me some stock airbox top cover and snorkel to fit onto the original intake. Should be free of defects - Bought a set of R34 GT-T brakes (not installed yet, going to rebuild + respray in champion blue + white 'Nissan' text) - Bought the last set of bilsteins from @Sydneykid and had them installed. Has been making some sounds on the rear but hopefully should be sorted out after this New Year break. - Regreased front caster rod bushings (poly bushes..) - Rear upper camber arms - Whiteline sway bars (BNF27Z 22mm + BNR11XXZ 24mm).  The rear sway bars are a bit short (ive read 50mm else where) but was still able to get them in.  Anyhows, I reckon suspension is sorted now. Maybe replace bushes (do have a set of front upper control arms from SK not installed yet) but should be okay for now. From now, I'm wanting to start working on the motor, drivetrain etc etc. Still debating on the order to go on and what to buy etc but: - ECU ( Haltech or Link ( Link states that it dont support A/T or AWD functions... Can anyone attest to this? ) - Highflow turbo ( ATR43ss2 ) - Intercooler ( Not decided yet, but cant find many good afoordable ones. Toshi says to opt for crossflow Japanese. Bit difficult this one, unless I get a returnflow Blitz from JJ? ) - Injectors ( Any recommendations ? I do have a nismo FPR ( Thanks SK ) ) - Seats - Tune by either Toshi or DVS To be fair, I did consider just keeping the stock turbo and nistuning it. Sat in a mates stock N, that had something like 200kw, and I reckon that felt more than enough. Maybe I should just go this route ahhaha. Too many choices.... Planning a trip down south, so wanting to just clean things up and make sure it gets to and from in one piece. Anything else specifically I should do before ? Cheers lads

      RB25DET Engine Oil Dipstick Length

      By DraftySquash · Posted

      Must be for the car’s lucky charm 🤷🏽‍♂️ She runs fine, but it just seems to take about 1L less. Maybe I’ll have the oil sump dropped at some point to check if there is anything

      3 or 4 8-balls in the sump?

      Hmmm interesting. Mine is the exact same and clearly the right one.  The mystery of the engine oil being full after 3.5-4L continues
