I see that some one knows him and he had a VN S-pac before the cuffy :) THIS IS THE PROBLEM some one talked him into getting an import after he got sick of getting his ass handed to him by cars with smaller engines. NO COMMODORE DRIVER SHOULD EVER EVER EVER BE ABLE TO BUY AN IMPORT there f**ked in the head bad enough as it is with a shitty commodore that has no real power, giving him an import the results here only a matter of time. I drive an R31 with a RB20DET silver top conversion, GTR brakes, S13 steering and D2 drift suspension and I keep the car looking as stock as I can on the out side because people like this cock smoker think that they can dodge the law forever. I know lots of people with nice imports that WILL NOT take them out at night because they know that they will be pulled over up to 12 times in one outing. I started with an 1982 SE sigma sedan 5 speed manual and the 2.6ltr 4 banger and went to the state forest to learn how to drift on deserted gravel roads. After 3 years of rallying the sigma it finaly through a piston out the engine and I got an EB S-pac falcon because it was really cheap at the time, and started to drag with it as you couldn't rally a falcon like that :D but I soon realized that street drags are for noobs with no real driving abilities other then put it in drive and put your foot on the excellerator, at least I had the decency to do a 5 speed manual conversion to it. So I decided that drifting was a disiplin that required a good car and a good driver and thats what I was looking for so I got the R31 being the cheepest nissan I could find at the time that could have an RB20 conversion done and started doing mount runs up and down training every night of the week to become the best driver I could without professional instruction. Then you see f**ktards like this that think there f**king shit hot that bring the heat down on the lot of us just for having an imported car and it realy boils my blood. I have made some bad decisions in the past that have cost me my licence 5 times and I HATE traffic cops with a passion but I've also come to the conclution that if you like to race then do it on a track or at least some where fare away from other people and late at night or early in the morning. I hope this person never drives again.

i think people have got it a bit mixed up about the losing 121 points. he didn't lose them all of the 1 licence. it is actually quite easily done. lose all 12 points in a mater of a few months. hand your licence in for 3 months, get it back and start over. all of this can be done without going to court once. it doesn't take much to lose 12 points. get caught doing 71 in a 60 zone, there's 3 points gone. fail to stop at a stop sign, there's another 3. do a burnout on a bit of road with double white lines and get a cranky cop and you get done for dangerous driving, undue noise, crossing double white lines and there's the rest of the licence gone and a few extra points ontop of that.

i don't condone it in anyway, but it is much easier to lose that many points than it seems. i live 200km from brissy and if i did a day trip to brissy and sat on 125kmh (to keep up with the flow of the rest of the traffic) the whole way (110kmh zone most of the way) and ran through 2 cameras each way (could happen, 1 just outside of town where i live, and 1 just outside brissy) that would be my licence gone (12 points) in a matter of 4 hours in the car. would that make me a super hoon?

on a slightly different note, i had a mate that was pulled over 96 times in 6 months, and not booked once. he worked at maccas and started at 5am most mornings. he lived about 3km from maccas. it was usually for rbt's. once he got pulled over 20m out of his driveway.

Think if you lived that far away and where getting harassed that much just walk the 30mins and get fit.

My best effort was 3times for RBT's in 25minutes on the way too work after some public holiday, turned a 25minute trip into 45minutes... :O

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.

      Skyline v36 350GT sedan hunting on idle

      By Robot · Posted

      Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣

      After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
