josh, ill have my car up and running b4 u buy another car rofl

you will have a QUICK car running before I get another one, unless I buy my old car back, but as in this thread/reasons why. It won't happen. Pretty sure I'll buy this Silvia tomora

i was always under the impression that the friction created by the affect of a burnout increased the charge to the flux capacator

this is a phenomenon i have pondered many a late night...

close call, I just got pulled over by the popo

I was heading up a road they were waiting at the lights as i went sailing through an intersection me thinking F U K! as i was clearly not doing the 60kmh as signed well few seconds later they come round the corner party lights doing their thing...

got rbt lisence check and a few stern words... they kept trying to get me to say/admit i was driving with out undue car and attention as i wouldnt admit to a specific speed.

Cant really complain as i was doing the wrong thing, guess it would have been too hard for them to pin me on it or they were just feeling forgiving!

fun stuff as i have not been pulled over for 11 months!

So noel if everything goes well today should we expect a full tune done?

I sure hope so.

We'll just stumble along to the next obstacle Mike.Farkin rice cars! I am gonna go buy an lj torry and shove a small block in it. Spark, Fuel, Timing. VROOOOOOM. no electronic whizmo flux capacitors or phase inhibitors to worry about. Just drive. :blink:

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
