    The ECCS (or whatever the primitive equivalent is, given that it appears you're talking about an R31) relay is activated by the ECU when the ECU gets power from the ignition, and is held on by the ECU for a short time after power is removed from the ignition. The ECCS relay keeps the ECU powered up. If the output of the ECCS relay is cross-wired over onto the ignition circuit, then it will also keep ignition on after the ignition is turned off, until all power is killed by a battery disconnect or fuse pull. I would look for something like that as a consequence of the immobiliser having bee installed in a weird way, or removed (by you) in a bad way.

    I'll tell you what it powers. It powers the things that stop working when it is blown or removed. Have you looked at the wiring diagram? I haven't got the the R33 manual here, because...ugh, why would I? But the R34 manual shows many circuit diagrams with numbered fuses. An example being #5, 10A from the ignition switch, running the sunroof & power windows. I'm not suggesting that that's your fuse (although it could be!)....just pointing out the level of detail available in the easily accessible documentation.

    I've taken to calling it Trumpistan. It has a lot of far eastern European dictator for life vibes going on right now.

    Fixed that for you again. In case it didn't sink in the first time.

    As it happens, last night I stumbled across a very nice R34 GTT HDI intercooler with pipes. The cooler has good strong top and bottom plates. The piping is very light and has never been in contact with a fan, so it is well designed. Is at my bro-in-law's workshop - recently acquired with an engine package and therefore available. I have no idea what he wants for it. I can put you in touch if you'd prefer to go that way rather than trying to jam a GTR cooler in.

    Take it to an auto-electrician. There is no way that we can help solve electrical shorting problems over the internet.

    It may be a speed hole. But I'd be worried about its mate in the chassis rail.

    No, you made it fairly clear that you only wanted first hand experience with converted solid lifters. Typically, you never need to adjust the clearances on solid lifters on any factory Japanese engine. They don't wear. Japanese camshafts don't wear*. Japanese lifters/followers/buckets don't wear.* *unless the engine is owned/operated by a moron and not serviced.

    How about.....every Neo?

    f**k me! The forklift tine hole in the side of the sill panel!

    I only have opinions. Because I know what I'm talking about. But seeing as you don't want them, I'm not going to answer.

    Speed cut defender, to stop the ECU killing the power at 180km/h. Shouldn't affect steering, because that signal is going IN to the ECU.

    Surely the correct answer is, "who cares?" Perfect excuse to delete HICAS, if it is not already deleted. No-one needs the SAS.

    I've seen what happens when squirrels put in too many acorns. They get backfires.

    Walbro 255 is very old. There are newer better from Walbro and others. As Ben says above, define your power level, then that defines your fuel flow. That narrows your range of pumps. E85 being a big variable on that of course, both in terms of capacity and whether the pump is rated to live with ethanol or not. The newer Walbros all are. Older Bosch ones (044, 040, etc) make no promises to survive.

    Who cares? Because

    One is the reverse switch. Connect it to the car's reverse switch wiring. The other is the neutral switch. Connect it to the car's neutral switch wiring. You can work out which one is which at the gearbox end in about 3s with a multimeter. The car side you can work out from the R32 GTR workshop manual that has GTS4 wiring diagrams in it. You will either need to obtain (from a wreck) or make up a driver's side engine/gearbox harness to provide the appropriate wiring, because the automatic one is not 100% useful.

    No, for internal aerodynamic performance There would be less bending with what I'm talking about.

    I'm with him. Either that, or wiring to a hella hectic high boost switch.

    The only foglight switch I have ever seen in an R32 is the one on the binnacle between the rear demister and the headlight switch. I've also never seen it do anything because I don't believe I've ever been within 20 feet of an R32 with foglights.

    Well. Yeah. Also, on the topic of what causes oil in the intake tract other than bad PCV valves, the causes include bad turbo seals and f**ked engines. As an extension, causes of actual knocking include oil in the intake tract.
  22. GTSBoy
    Yes, you should cut the bottom exit off and reroute it out the side of the tank. That's just janky right now.
  23. GTSBoy
    No, the boost axis on the right clearly shows it making about 2 psi before the line disappears behind the legend. If it makes it as high as 5 psi on that chart I'd be very surprised.
  24. GTSBoy
    No boost. (look at the chart).
