No fault code and only 260rwkw on the stock computer with them unplugged.Used 25L in 35km with them plugged in and less than 10L on the return journey. I drive sensible as well. No fines in over 10 years. The standard computer is a known pig if the boost is bumped up. It's been covered many times. There are pitfalls with aftermarket but it lies in the tuning and the attention to detail of the tuner.

Really, I can't get excited by a company that spends so much to produce that boat anchor V6. What an embarrasment. I feel shame for their engineers, but if they were any good they'd be in weapons and cutting edge, not catchup.

Sorry pete, that's GTR32. Yours should just be port matched.

How many of you guys with bad economy are still running the stock computers? The stocker responds to any extra boost by immediately enriching the fuel delivery. Try disconnecting the O2 sensor and see how the economy goes. My GTR33 is better with the sensors disconnected. If that fails start thinking a digital fuel adjuster or aftermarket management.

Looks like I'll get my wheelchair in. Count me in +1.

Er, no. They are left out on purpose as being of no more significance than the losers that drive people movers cos they can't work out birth control. Sits back and awaits flames.

Skylines have a double wishbone setup mate so won't adjust anything except the angle of the shock. It is for adjusting the camber on Mcpherson strut cars which is what's in the Silvia platform. Leave any playing to the suspension shop.

Oh my eyes.......I cannot see. No really, this sounds like a good project. I see you are keen for one Vus. Got a taste for handling then?? Be an interesting proposition in a 32 GTR as they get cheap enough to butcher.

The search would have also revealed the reason most don't bother, that being they seem to lose power when adjusted off zero degrees. I think this also answers your second question.

It is Pete. The manifold has a lip that turns the flow and finishes in a sharp edge. Not a good situation for flow but they maust have had some reason. Anyway it's probably just for stock boost, and would be an impediment at greater boost levels/exhaust velocities.

John the GTR turbos flange is larger than the manifold flange (at least on a 32 manifold). Also needs a port.

No idea what brand they provided, it was a solid interference fit plug though, and they did the full tap on the crank as well and just provided the plugs for me. I paid a bit extra to get the block fully prep cleaned for building as I didn't want to put all the crap into the drain as I cleaned it out. Worth $70 IMO. Probably wasted after the latest misadventure. I don't see why this wouldn't be done as an automatic thing. This is just that bit of attention to detail that gets a rep going and customers in the door. Broken engines don't get return customers I feel. Grubbing the plug is a good idea Ben. Again, attention to detail. Carl the plug is at the front of the block, above the oilpump I think, or is it above the water pump?

Rally, nowhere near here. I rallied for 15 years and stayed perpetually terrified, either driving (cos of the fact that someone else is in the car as well) or navigating (cos I wasn't in the drivers seat). Rally competitors are on their own planet, out in the forests, usually in the rain, getting bogged when they fall of the road, getting filthy, getting the car out, going like a maniac again, barely making time, service the car in a too short period, not enough tyres, Jim's out will Galant wheels fit a 1600?? time checks, synchronised watches, night time, missed calls, missed corners, terratrips, and greasy sausages on bread. No decent woman in her right mind will go anywhere near them so usually the wives are the only females within cooee. The fashions of big hats and drizabones just won't tempt the upwardly trendy so expect the competitors and supporters to be salt of the earth types. What more to say? They don't belong in the pyramid because they are cutting doughys around the bastard and flicking mud all up the street racers bling

As the ad said GAME OVER. It was never a real Monaro.

Yep, mine were pulled and I had new ones provided by the machine shop so I could fit them myself.

Good to see there is a solution. Hope it works out. Now there is a known solution we can get to work nutting it out

That's it.

There's another thread with the manuals. Do a search.

Yeah.....waiting

Offset wouldn't fit for you either Rick

Sounds like fun, as long as you can afford to spend the money for fun. A few points to note: A GTR33 can cost as little as $30K. I won't discuss the looks issue, that's personal preference. The GTR is not as 'nice' to drive in traffic due to the lower compression engine as an RB25det equipped car will be. The engineer will require the brakes are up to thejob so at least R33gtst/R34Gtt brakes. (probably already has them right Dan?) Not so easy to 'just' turbo (right Dan?)

Josh punctuation is your friend. I'm not even going to bother trying to decipher this mess until it's been edited. Tip: if we can read it, we can help.

So just the typical misadventures. Pity I had to spend most of today hanging out with Leanne Tander and her race team.

This is an 89 GTR so it may have been a later mod to punch the cap number on. Deren is taking it slowly and I think has swapped some of the caps to get a good fit and clearance to allow movement. Nice to see someone learning and taking it easy while DIY all the basic stuff.

Cam caps are marked E1-E7 exhaust and I1-I7 inlet. Check my PM.
