How To: Perform Bank Balance on GTR

Applicable Model/Year: 

• Nissan GT-R Models 08-18

Note: Vehicle must be flashed with a MAF based map, this feature will not work on a vehicle using a Speed Density (SD) tune

How To Enable:

This feature comes enabled on all GT-R Accessports. If you find this feature missing, make sure your V3 Accessport is on firmware version 1.7.3.0-14517 or later. 

Available Adjustments and How to Make them:

Using Accesstuner or Accesstuner Pro, you can override the automatic bank balancing and set it to values manually.

When And Why To Adjust:

This process can help offer a more stable idle as it keeps one bank of cylinders from getting more air than the other.

Things To Look Out For:

Bank Air Learn can only be performed once per key cycle, so if it fails or you need to run it again for some reason, you'll need to turn off and re-start the car.  If your vehicle isn't quite up to temperature the process will attempt to run but wait until the car hits the proper temperature values.  If the car doesn't meet the conditions within 3 minutes, the Accessport will automatically stop attempting to perform a Bank Air Learn operation.  The Climate Control and Lights need to be turned off.
