Hello there,
I am new to this forum, even to the Skyline. I just bought a 95 gts-t with an rb26 conversion. I live in Italy, but the car came from the UK. I drive the car and it just does not feel right. I wanted to know if anybody has doen this engine swap and what should be in the car and what shouldnt.
As I drive the car, it makes a wierd sound, I hear the turbos kicking in, however, they kick in at about 3000rpm, then the rpms shoot from about 4800 all the way to 7000 but no power or torque is being felt, its as if i am stepping on the clutch, boost goes to about 1.6bar, I am reaching 110 km in fifth gear since I feel that if I dont shift, the engine will blow, I had a turbo civic, so I know somewhat how the car should be feeling when the boost kicks in. Just this car does not feel like it has power.
Also, the engine looks like it is missing components, and there are various cables that are not connected to anything. I will post some pics of the engine bay so that you guys with alot more knowledge of this car can help me out. Please, I need help and there is no mechanic here that know about the skylines.
