I have a non-turbo R34 and the exhaust keeps popping. a mechinic told me that it was the high tension leads and that i will need new ones? another mate said that there aren't any leads there!

so i was wondering if there are any or not and how do i fix this popping noise?

Can't help you with the popping noise but Skylines don't have plug leads.The coils sit directly on top of the plugs.Mine does the odd little pop when I change gear but I don't worry about it.

Is it popping or "wurbling"?

I've got a S2 stagea (same engine, and 3" turbo-back exhaust - same design as for a skyline just a bit longer) and if I take my foot off the accelerator or just hold it there lightly to coast down it will sometimes make a kind of 'wurbling' noise. This is quite normal with an aftermarket exhaust.

For me it only ever occurs on deceleration or just cruising with the accelerator only slightly pressed or not at all.

Also some people have mentioned their exhausts popping on gearchange, which I believe had something to do with running rich...but cant be sure.

If this isn't it then hopefully u sort it out soon :(

    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
