:P

Not another one!!!!

I know a cheaper way mate.

spend some of your money on a corolla.

then spend the rest of your $7K or so on steroids, hit the gym, get fcuking massive and when any of your xr/clubadore mates says anything about your corolla, go nuts, rip their arms off, and beat them to death with them.

:) Roids shrink nuts-I was just kidding about showin up my mates, why buy a skyline if you dont want a fast/powerful car? thats what you get on this forum for is advice on doing upgrades etc... but I suppose you knew everything there is to know about skylines the minute you sat in one? the rest of us have to start somewhere and wheres better than here?

Im not looking at to build a supercar just want a bit of extra power, Im well aware of what these things can end up costing you and advice is what Im here for, my thanks to those that gave it

BOV'd... have you been in a modded car with a stock turbo at around the 200rwkw mark?

i think you'll be surprised at just how fast it is.

Yeh I appreciate your advice, Ive driven some fast cars WRX's, BMWs, clubbys etc.. just not many skylines except for mine and my brothers and Im not a young hoon bound to write myself off, my lines fairly stock except for exhaust, filter, clutch so whats that say 150-160kw maybe? if I was going to push it up to say 240-260kw then id definatly change suspension etc...

big money for no reason mate..

I just don't understand some people..

good luck.

Im just looking into it at the moment and from what Ive been told so far it looks like for about 2k more than ive been qouted to get the 25 and put it in i could put in the 26 and would'nt worry about turbo upgrades etc... and spend the extra cash on the cosmetics of the car, thats if what Ive been told is true which is why i'm asking :D

      My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.

      Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).

      Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers

      Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.

      Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
