if you have a dash light [check engine] flashing, your pinging/knocking and in engine destroying country.

if your only getting 25 in summer, you have absolutely no problem - you'd only be getting 10 in winter and 60 is the danger threshold.

ebay, plus several shops have different versions of them as well.

I'd check the knock levels on the handset first, if the readings are OK, I wouldn't worry too much about it and just get it done whenever [the tune]. Sounds like the last owner didn't know what they were talking about [some confusion over fuels], so it could be that your tune is already OK as it is. Suck it and see.............

Uncool - if it isn't made in the EEC, its uncool, and he has that 'british is best' streak that he has to struggle against as well, so he thinks he's being more worldly by accepting EEC products. One thing I noticed - He thought the Monaro/GTO/Vauxhall was good stuff before, now he is tending to rubbish it, so someone from Oz must have dissed him.

Don't forget to wear protection...........we don't need any unwanted Carbon Microfibres around!! And - can I be your friend Jayce, I've got a few CF projects I have been thinking about.

I'm in, just brought a lottery ticket - when it wins, I'll be buying one, maybe I should use my ticket as a deposit hahahaha. At $160K it'll ONLY be lottery winners, IT guru's, lease deals, doctors, lawyers, accountants and rip off merchants [including nissan dealers] that will have one.

OK, so you replaced this half gasket [i thought you'd installed it like that, but after re reading your post you bought the car like that] and fixed up the leak. I'd try the Safc, but don't be surprised if it doesn't fix it, it is only a signal bender, and if the ecu is broken, it still won't send the right response. Unfortunately you will not find anything out without a tune, you need a baseline tune, you can't avoid it [i know you don't have the $$$, but I can't see any alternative]. Your also in a hole, you've done some mods, but haven't finished them, the mods you have done are only half way towards the set up you need for an efficient motor with power.

"when I bought it was only HALF THERE" ????? not sure what this means, I don't understand how you could install half a gasket. If the over fueling is as bad as you say, I'd be questioning other things that you might have done in the install, or an ecu fault etc, I wouldn't be sure that a 'tune' could fix it.

Funny, I've never seen it..........I really must lead a sheltered life, mine only beeps with lights on or key in ignition and door open [the latter which I put a switch on, so I can play mp3's with the door open]. I reckon it wouldn't take much to disable it, just got to find the live wire in the circuit and then disable it.

what did you use off the original motor, i'd start there [starter motor, clutch fan, clutch, gearbox, a/c compressor, alternator etc etc]. eliminate them first.

Use a drill and a drill bit.......hehehehahahaha

I've never heard of it on a skyline before, is it beeping inside the cab or outside? If its inside the cab then you could have a short on your lights on/key in ignition beeper under the dash.

If its coming from an injector then the seal on that injector has blown, I don't reckon you have to worry about the motor, just get the injector seals replaced [may as well do them all]

yeah, I'm running with an RB30 unit, I think it was a reco not sure, looked new. They fit fine, but you have one bolt that doesn't line up and it has to be left out, doesn't affect anything. Just Jap do 'em, there are also RB25 ones around, they aren't uncommon.

it would help, but can be delayed

pro engines has the reputation, and I know of a few guys that have had work done there and are happy with it, I'd say spend yor $$$ where you can get the right job done.

damn, well maybe SK kept it, I'll have to ask.

My warning had nothing to do with 'being social' or the lack there of........ But far enough, 1 in 5 means I'll be here for say another 25 years.

Can it be recovered?

I'd like that, I have a warning against me - 1 in 5 years of being on SAU - and I think there should be some discretion based on your previous track record. I expressed an opinion [well founded and with evidence if anyone wants it] that proabably did not meet the forum rules, and deserved my warning [but it was worth it this time]. But I don't see the justification for being damned for all time, you only get twenty years for murder!!! So any warning retraction over a set time would be appreciated. Actually I probably got my warning in the same thread as Dirtgarage - a thread where some had very strong motives and advice.

^^^^ and do it more reliably too, the GM product, say what you will, was pretty damn robust.

What I fail to understand: Someone in Los Angeles comes up with a design, big companies make a couple of prototypes, they assess market reaction, they check the demographics, calculate the target market, make sales forecasts, do item cost and analyse profit and loss, swing into production and sub contract the item to a sweatshop in Phillipines/Thailand/India/Malaysia/Pakistan and then play them off against one another until they achieve a rock bottom unit price, they then have 100’s or thousands of this item made, it has the logo prominently displayed [Nike, Converse, Billabong, Mambo, Levi pick a flavour]. It is distributed around retail outlets around the world. We walk in and spend our hard earned dollars on it because it appeals, or the man in the TV says we must have it to fix our miserable lives, then we will taste real success, we will be winners in life. We try it on and it feels light, warm, comfortable, and for a fleeting moment we think we are the person our parents wanted us to be, we are sexy, we are intelligent, we are achievers. We take it home and wear it with pride, but there is something wrong??? It is a basic flaw that occurs time and again, but nobody does a thing about it, don’t these people wear their own product, can’t they see the defect? With all this research and product investment, within all this network, with all the resources at their disposal, there is no single genius. Is this failure destined to haunt the retail therapist participant till the planets collide? How can all these products get it so wrong and include a tag or label at the back of the neck, on the collar, that is made from recycled oyster shells!!! Just about every garment I own has had the tag cut off because they annoy the bejesus out of me.

you can get it stealing a motor, you can get it taking a GTR, you can get it heisting turbo's for a car, matter of fact I've got it now, a long cool coke, aargh

By the time you get it on the road, we'll all have traded ours in on V series GTR's, they'll be cheap as chips by then...........lol
