Hay just wondering if anyone could tell me what i should do to my skyline to make it quicker of the mark i hjave been driving my mates car's and they seam to have a lot of off the mark grunt my car is an r32 gts-t i have a bleed valve and 3 inch dump and cat back 'but no cat is stock'.

ps i am not very good on computers :(

I guess "off the mark" is really a torque matter until the turbo can do anything for you. A bigger turbo will probably take even longer to spool on a 2L motor... perhaps a high-flow ball-bearing jobbie on your current turbo? Perhaps a series 2 R33 turbo might be more efficient. They are ball-bearing already, and have a nylon compressor wheel.

Other than that, I recken a tune of the AFR's might help a bit down low. Certainly the exhaust and dump will play a big part in torque. "no cat is stock" ? Do you have no cat or the stock cat? If stock, replace to match the rest of your system man!

is your mates car a R33 or R34. If so.. they are faster off the mark because of the extra 0.5 ltr displacement. It does wonders with the low end torque problem the RB20DET has.

The solution is simple. Start saving for a new clutch.. and in the mean time do 7k/rpm launches lol.. Im sure u'll be faster then!

    • Bit of a pity we don't have good images of the back/front of the PCB ~ that said, I found a YT vid of a teardown to replace dicky clock switches, and got enough of a glimpse to realize this PCB is the front-end to a connected to what I'll call PCBA, and as such this is all digital on this PCB..ergo, battery voltage probably doesn't make an appearance here ; that is, I'd expect them to do something on PCBA wrt power conditioning for the adjustment/display/switch PCB.... ....given what's transpired..ie; some permutation of 12vdc on a 5vdc with or without correct polarity...would explain why the zener said "no" and exploded. The transistor Q5 (M33) is likely to be a digital switching transistor...that is, package has builtin bias resistors to ensure it saturates as soon as base threshold voltage is reached (minimal rise/fall time)....and wrt the question 'what else could've fried?' ....well, I know there's an MCU on this board (display, I/O at a guess), and you hope they isolated it from this scenario...I got my crayons out, it looks a bit like this...   ...not a lot to see, or rather, everything you'd like to see disappears down a via to the other side...base drive for the transistor comes from somewhere else, what this transistor is switching is somewhere else...but the zener circuit is exclusive to all this ~ it's providing a set voltage (current limited by the 1K3 resistor R19)...and disappears somewhere else down the via I marked V out ; if the errant voltage 'jumped' the diode in the millisecond before it exploded, whatever that V out via feeds may have seen a spike... ....I'll just imagine that Q5 was switched off at the time, thus no damage should've been done....but whatever that zener feeds has to be checked...

    • I think Fitmit had some, have a look on there (theyre Australian as well)
    • Hah, fair enough! But if you learn with this one you can drive any other OEM manual. No modern luxury features like auto rev-matching or hillstart assist to give you a false sense of confidence. And a heavy car with not that much torque so it stalls easily. 
    • Actually, I'd say all three are the automatic option. Just the different trim levels. The manual would be RSFS, no?
