  1. Just curious but in the whole list you have listed you have not said you have tried a new/another AFM? I use to have issues with my car stalling at idle before of the AFM, I changed the AFMS and problem went away. I also adjusted the Idle control to idle it a little higher than stock just to keep it good.

  2. If it's not a track car then I would just recommend replacing the standard sender unit. Available from nissan at about $200. You can buy cheaper gauges to do the job but it's certainly not going to last 15-20 years like the standard ones do

    +1

    My GTR had a issue where it would on occasion drop oil pressure 10-15psi and it was the sender, got the sender myself through nissan got Dan ^^^ to fit it and haven't had any more issues until my engine ate a piston.

  3. I have had both a Organic NPC and a Bigmouth track NPC button.

    The organic is better for every day use, I was pushing 450hp when my GTR was my daily and not an issue what so ever until of course wear took place. I was doing 6500-7000rpm launches getting my 1/4mile time down to a 12.385 at 111mph when I decided the clutch had enough it was slipping at the top end of my gears mainly second and 3rd.

    I asked MANY MANY suggestions on which way to go after killing the organic. Dan(ERD), Noel(Fineline), Strik3r, Hyped6 and Strudel.

    A majority suggested the Bigmouth track, and I am glad I listened to them. The clutch is a little adsertive and obviously doesn't like being ridden like a button clutch shouldn't be, but in traffic somewhat difficult to avoid. but 1 of the best things I had in my GTR. Not as piggy as some of the button clutches I have driven and VERY liveable.

    My clutch is still holding out and I don't expect having to upgrade for a long long time, so It's my recomendation.

  4. I'm getting the dyno graphs emailed from the tuner and i'll put them up when they come.

    also, does anyone know how hard it is to change the manifolds and dump pipes? i've got the manual for the GTR and have read through the steps to removing the turbo's and in theory it doesnt sound too hard. but when you add in the limited working space and possibly tight nuts then its so much harder.

    I would dare say it's not your manifolds, standard manifolds have proven to flow quite well to a certain point to which I believe is over 400kw.

    What was your power figure before E85? and what are the exact mods?

    I am running -5s and was putting out 350rwkw at 21psi on BP98, before my rebuild and I have a restrictive exhaust... Tomei dumps, restrictive front pipe, 3" cat and 3" to 3 1/2" Kaki exhaust.

    Not to compare apples to oranges but Xr6Turbo engines their valve springs tend to start floating around the 13psi mark even when the car only has 10 thousand+ kms on it, its a known problem with the ford engines. Working on the same theory with Rb26s that are a minimum 10 years old you have to add fatigue to the scenario...

    This is why when I got my engine rebuilt, I got Supertech springs put in just for a little more peace of mind.

  5. I love this car. :wub:

    I'd seen your build thread but got to actually see it in person when I dropped my car off at ERD, looks even tougher in person.

    I can see why not everyone likes the white engine covers, but I think it really accents the rb26 outline nicely and the RPF1's are just perfect for 33 GTR's for some reason.

    Keep the pics and videos coming!

    Cheers bud,

    Yeah I love the Rpf1's I am looking at buying another set for the track.. 17x10s to fit a bit bigger tire.

    Yeah it's gonna be a pain to keep clean but I'm gonna wax it every now and then to keep it a little fresher.

    Yeah Dan at ERD is driving around in it atm, doing the first 1000kms to make sure everything is sweet.

    Once I get it back I'll have a video up within a couple weeks.

  6. Looking good! I got a valley badge done by Dryden too - quality gear!

    Dont know if the white will be easy to keep clean in the engine bay though haha

    Yeah Dryden do some good work, I am close mates with them.

    Batcho 1 of the Dryden Boys is currently building his E36 Couple with a LS1 Turbo... might end up being twin turbo with the way he goes but certainly they know what they are doing.

    Cory's Evo is well worth checking out aswell... 99GSR... the fuel system plate for it is awesome I want 1 for the GTR but can't do it atm... not going E85 yet so it'll have to wait...

    I am pretty much gonna use a wax on it to try keep it clean.... but keeping it clean isn't gonna be the issue cause honestly I only pop the hood to change the oil, I just wanted it to be cleaned up a bit.

  7. Hey did you end up finding out what goodies the engine had? I remember you mentioning in your for sale thread (at the time) that you thought it had stage 2 cams.

    Well it was a standard engine not the stroker as it was in the import papers.

    It DOES have cams unlike what I was told by a "big" shop... unknown duration tho, It's certainly equal to poncam's tho.

    The piston had "gas" porting tho so that was different.

  8. Where did you go to get this made if you don't mind me asking? Mate wants a Nismo item but there doesn't seem to be any so this could be an idea.

    I got it made by Aaron Dryden, You can also order design's through Dryden Motorsports.

    Aaron does drafting for Dryden Motorsports now, he had to do mine because it was more involved design wise then they usually are.

    Just good Dryden Motorsports and they'll come up.

    On another note.

    So, not much to do with the GTR has come about yet... I think they are doing run in now hahaha so on my weekend I have set a couple goals.

    Number 1 goal was to repair the bike I crashed a couple months back(just need to connect lines now)

    Number 2 goal was to clean my carport(In progress, I'm on break :P )

    Number 3 goal was to get my 1972 Toyota Corona running and washed... Goal completed.

    The main reason I wanted to get this car out and washed.

    The car belonged to my Late Pop, He was given it by my Great Aunt when they had to go into a nursing home.

    When I killed the ECU in the car my Pop told me I can have the car if I looked after it, about a week later he passed.

    The car holds ALOT of sentimental value to me obviously.

    I have also just bought his motorbike off my Grandmother, she was going to sell it after I repaired it however I decided I would like to own it so I bought it.
