  1. Thanks for the overwhelming support already, I honestly thought being an NA skyline I'd be shunned a little to be honest! :w00t: - Anyway, you asked for some pics!

    I went to Wakefield yesterday (09/09/2014) - Was a great day, and while the 2 friends who came with me both had turbo's I wasn't too far behind in terms of time! :yes:

    As I mentioned, I have an RB25 getting a rebuild with the following;

    ACL Race Bearings

    OEM piston Rings

    Tomei 256 poncams

    Tomei Cam Gear to replace some china brand ssprocket
    Full engine gasket kit
    Timing belt and water pump kit

    Head rebuilt

  2. Hello!

    I've been lurking for a while and thought i'd share with you my project!

    10649461_695682703842548_351331979170516

    This is my 1990 Nissan R32 Skyline GTS

    While non turbo (p-plates) it's a lot of fun, and i get my fare share of track time in it at wakefield

    The car is slightly modified, including;

    - R33 RB25DE Engine (VCT)

    - R32 Turbo Brakes w/ braided lines all round - DBA T2 Slotted Rotors all round and Ferodo DS2000 Pads

    - R32 Viscous LSD

    - HSD Coilovers

    - HICAS locked

    - Enkei RPF 01 Wheels (17x9+22 [Khumo KU31 - 235-45-R17])

    - GTR Front bar, Front lip, bonnet, bonnet lip, front grille, wing and headlights all genuine items

    - Bride Brix 1.5, Nardi deep corn and a nismo aluminium shift knob
    - And a few other things i've probably forgotten

    Over the past few months i have been preparing a turbo engine for the car, i've gone with the RB25DET from the R33 which is currently getting a refresher in preparation for the swap

    Thanks for reading, can't wait to dump a whole lot of photos for you guys to enjoy! :laugh:

  3. how did it go?

    Hey Mick

    Filled the car up and put in a bottle of cleaner and went for a drive, definitely felt a little better about halfway through the tank, still a bit surge-y and splutter-y at times unfortunately but a little better, car feels nice when it's smooth! :woot:

    My O2 sensor arrived which i put in last night but I'm yet to take it for a drive so we'll see how it goes :)

  4. I don't think they have a particular name, but they are called something like a reservoir sock? (Correct me if I'm wrong)

    You can really use whatever, I've seen people use sweat bands and socks, anything with an elastic property of appropriate size would work.. i got cool little green one with project mu embroided into it free when i ordered some stuff from project mu because they sent my order late

    You could cable tie a tea towel cut off or spare rag or something around it, doesn't really matter who makes it, all it will do is just soak up boiled fluids and get filthy real quick so i wouldn't go spending large amounts of money on a set of them

  5. Rather than coming here just to remind you BEE*R's are shit, ill shed a little bit of light

    These are a pain in the ass to "tune" for the lack of a better word. You literally have to drive around hitting limiter over and over and over while playing with the little knob things

    As for the yellow one (gain), adjust that one toward the right for more "bangs per second" or left for less; again for the lack of a better phrase.. - While the knobs keep turning, they do have limits in the software/code, so turning it all the way left for like 100 times will not f**k it up, it will just be at it's lower limit. try fiddling with this knob for more bangs. ALSO you will not spit fire and go bang bang every single time, it's quite random and sometimes will not make huge bangs, but sometimes will

    To be honest, i have one in my 32, never use it and i would happily cut it out of my car if someone came over with cash

  6. Hi guys

    A few details before we start

    R32 Skyline Coupe
    RB25DE S2 (Manual) - ~160,xxxkm

    RB25 Pink Label AFM
    RB25DE S2 Manual ECU
    BP 98 octane fuel

    Basically what's happening is my revs bog down at around the 2.5k - 3.5k mark at around 1/4 - 1/3 Throttle and it sounds like it's surging almost? I had a similar problem recently throughout the whole rev range unless I had the throttle wide open so I ordered a new TPS and after installing and adjusting it that issue was solved however I'm still getting this strange bog down

    So far I've replaced the Spark plugs, checked the coil pack loom for any wear but it looks quite clean and in good condition. I've recently replaced and adjusted the TPS, I've cleaned the MAF a few times now, replaced all the fluids, filters, air filter etc etc

    I have coming from Nissan a new O2 sensor and fuel filter as i though these might be playing a part in the matter, I've also gone over the engine grounds to make sure nothing is going wrong. Should i be looking at a set of coilpacks? they look old/stock so they might've had it, im pretty baffled to be honest :/

    My thoughts are that either the coilpacks are dying, or that it's running too rich (stinks of fuel lol, no idea of the o2 sensor history) and simply can't burn it all until i open the throttle more, I'll try find another AFM and see if that helps at alll


    If anyone has some ideas to what I could try, please let me know :) Thanks!
