very decent results with your car there mate.

I have a question and I guess it is more of a technical question though..

with all the talk of skyline turbo's and ceramic wheels dieing over x psi and so forth..

your's at 14psi and still going for god knows how long and according to the mag, more than 100 1/4 passes in that form..

common theory of the ceramic exhaust wheel breakage is too much boost which results in too high exhaust temps which break them.

so with the use of NO2, what effect if any does it have on the exhaust temps?

is this the reason for your turbo still living today?

also, is your NO2 disconnected in someway when outside WSID?

what sort of boost is dialed in during street driving?

thanks and all the best.

Exhaust temps actually go up with Nitrous Oxide usage. Boost spikes to 14psi on the bottle but only very briefly. Over-speeding of the turbine wheel can cause it to delaminate from the shaft - not always JUST heat related.

I don't drive around with the bottle in the car when I'm on the street and when I drive to the track it certainly isn't connected. Theorhetically I should also have the solenoids isolated with blanking jets but that sounds too much like hard work to me :D

Boost for street driving is usually your regulation 8-9psi with the EBC turned off. That's where it lives most all of the time. Off.

Thanks heaps guys, girls and pusseh boys like brett :)

      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..

      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.
