A lot of you guys & girls may not know this [or even read this] but I just wanted to post a message about my late Father [r.i.p.] who passed away on this day 3 years ago [5/4/2000].

I mainly wanted to say that I am thinking of him.

His death was a direct result of a car crash, which happened near Laverton North area. He loved cars and driving.

He always knew I wanted a skyline too - its just unfortunate that I never got to take him for a cruise in it or let him have a drive. [i only bought the car 4 months ago].

Whenever I / we go cruising I think of him and wish he was around. Life is short - enjoy the ride.

I only posted here on this forum because its car / skyline related, hope I havent posted in the wrong place.

Looking forward to the next cruise - whenever that may be.

May the |down|force be with you!

Dale 5/4/2003 @ approx 0700.

Thanks again guys it means a lot to me!

It's mainly through what my father has taught me that I can cope with his death effectively. He was a great believer in the philosophy "everything happens for a reason" and I for one agree with it.

its wierd when that happens, you don't think it'll happen till it does. I lost a mate to meningacoccle late last year. He used to kick back with us, go out with us n stuff, esp drink up with us.

Its just wierd when you get to that point in the conversation and you know he's not gonna say sumfin any more, and you can't do anything about it either.

It mus be wierd having something you're so proud of dale an you're sure he would be too but... just not there. Life goes on...

Yeah shan I know what you mean, there has been so many times that I needed help with something [even little things] and I have thought "I will call and ask Dad" knowing that he knows an answer to a question I have, then I realise I can't. It is frustrating and upsetting.

    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
    • I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
