Yup thats right.. Car is probably running a bit rich!! That poping noise is normal for our imports. Unless it full backfires and is fully hecticly loud popping noise then you gotta start worrying..

Yea i couldnt really find that black box thingy.. However i did find a similar small little black plug.. Anyways guys PROBLEM HAS BEEN FIXED!!!! so damn happy This is what i did - could have been any one of these three things 1) Removed that black plug thingy and gave it a clean (just air) and plugged in back in --- no idea if that really helped lol 2) Ok so the day before we spliced this pink wire to read the voltage (this wire comes from the ecu to the plug which connects to the coil pack wiring loom), and we accidently cut the whole thing. I only noticed it today. So it was re-soldered on and fixed it up 3) In the mean time the CAS was cleaned too Turned the car on and everything worked like a charm So no idea exactly what it was. Im leaning more towards 2) - the pink wire Coz im pretty sure if it was my CAS, more than one cylinder would stop working. Also now that my car is fixed it pulls soo much harder than ever before. It actually feels like a 180kw skyline SO DAMN HAPPY!! thank you for all your help also..

Cheers for that.. will check it out might just unplug it, clean it perhaps, and plug it back in

And remember to bleed it afterwards, otherwise your coolant will go missing after a few days lol

Jason i think we should just plug in another loom and test it out.. Atleast it will rule out one bit part (wiring)

Sorry you totally lost me there So what exactly did you fix and how and why etc .. lol

Hmm interesting.. Would anyone have this and willing to help me out?

Bottom ones look like Series 2.. how do i know? coz i just pulled mine out last nite.. looks the same!!

Ah yup understood.. Cool well i will give this a go then Just gotta find time, coz im working every day this week then going overseas next sat.. otherwise might just do it when i come back!!

didnt understand what you meant sorry. So take spark plug out and connect the coil pack back on it? So what am i doing with the multigrips? holding the spark plug against the coil pack and seing if theres a spark?? im totally lost as to what you meant sorry.. Well i have put the coil pack against the block and cranked the car, but i couldnt see any spark coming out of it.. Also i have swapped coil packs from cylinder 3 to 2 and it works.. So nothing wrong with my packs..

Rear bar on series 1 and 2 would be the same.. I think so anyways pretty sure i sold my rear bar to a series 1 owner!!

shouldnt compression be consistant across all cylinders?

No i havnt.. Perhaps tomorrow night after work i can do it. But im sure the compression will be healty across all cylinders. If theres no voltage or spark coming across the wiring loom to that cylinder then logic just says, theres something wrong with that wiring to plug 3. Since all other cylinders are getting voltage etc. Well mbs206- i really dont know what else to do in terms of testing by myself.. Dont really have much tools etc etc.. I think i might just borrow someones wiring loom - atleast im narrowing it down if it works or not.. frost- so howd you find that out tho? might give that a go too then.. worth hurt if i cant find the problem

i really aint confident stripping those wires back and checking if theres is a broken state somewhere. See the thing is, it just happened out of know where.. Not like i was mucking around with anything etc..

Hey everyone I have a bit of a problem, and i dont know how its happened One night (friday nite), when i went to go start my car, it just struggled. Sounded like it was running on 5 cylinders and after few checks its exactly what it was doing. I took each plug out while the car was running and cylinder 3 just wasnt doing anything. eg) while the car was on, i removed cylinder 1 coil pack plug out; it will drop a cylinder, however number 3 just didnt do anything (remained the same) I changed the coil pack from say cylinder 2 to 3, and still cylinder 3 does nothing. I put the coil pack against the block and started the car to see if there was any spark, but didnt notice anything.. I really dont think theres anything wrong with my coil packs, but perhaps the wiring loom itself.. So i got the multi meter out, but after doing a few tests, it just seems like theres no voltage going to coil pack 3. Theres nothing wrong with the spark plugs (cylinder 3 plug is a little black-but i guess due to the fuel being dumped into it while the car is turned on).. Took stock ecu out and plugged in my power fc and still cylinder 3 doesnt fire. Its just cylinder 3.. All other cylinders seem fine. Has anyone else experienced this before? Any help/advice is much appriceated. Only thing i can really do is to borrow someones wiring loom and connect it up to see whether it works. If anyone in sydney is willing to help me out please do let me know Cheers ps- if you need any more info let me know. thanks edit: mods for my car are: full exhaust, pod filter, r34 cooler, stock ecu/turbo.. nothing else!! I dont really see how this will affect it, but just giving as much background info as possible. Also spark plugs are coppers re-gapped to 0.8 (been using it for 1.5 years now- changed every 5000kms)

Well a few friends of mine have used those cheapy plates on there jap brand guages and they either dont fit (the sensor thingy) or they leak. So im taking there word for it. Anyways so i found myself a greedy sandwich plate and the sensor probe fits perfectly evil- going to put the guage in my twin A-pillar pod. This is the guage i bought: Bought my boost guage ages ago (about 1.5 years ago) and now the oil temp guage

adz- i beleive kudo motosport is bringing in everything you need to do a r34 front end conversion.. check out his for sale section

I was just gonna ask.. even if you read it from your ecu, wouldnt the temp guage still sit in the same spot? Or will it show the true figures on the guage? but i dont see how, since you still taking it from the ecu. But i woul be wrong.. just curious thats all

^ yup what he said. Spilt dump pipe --> hi-flow cat --> catback Theres a good turbo back system. Now pick your budget and start spending heheh

Done. Will check it out tomorrow cheers yo

Sup So i need this plate thingy for my oil temp guage. Must be jap brand, as my guage is a pivot one!! The cheapy ones leak to my knowledge on jap brand guages. Pm your price etc and pics too!! Cheers

Ahh i see.. well i might just install it at the normal spot.. But anyone know where i can get a jap brand sandwhich plate from? the ones from justjap dont fit properly for jap brand guages..

ahh so i just found out that i need a jap brand sandwhich plate.. any idea where i can get it from? The ones at jusjjap have different fittings..

ahh so only 20 bucks.. thats alright then might buy one next week from justjap!! anyone free next monday to help me out? lol joey- which is better tho? and more accurate

Theres this chick i know who is selling one.. shes the biggest snob tho.. Anyways i read it on her myspace that she is selling one..
