Sorry to hear the unfortunate news LIZZEH :D , best wishes for recovery physically & emotionally :P . Cars do come & go, it was a little beast TEAM 13 will live on ;) . For every cloud there is a silver lining your next toy will surely be an upgrade ( not implying silvia was no good ), hope you heal up quick & get back on your path to racing ASAP. Good luck with future plans, take care, god bless. :D

actually, if you do want a skyline i may be persuaded to sell my 32 GTST for a cheap price. :P it would be tops either with the RB20, or with your SR in there. let me know if you're interested when you know what you want to do.

whoa suxz0rz lizzeh

f**ken oath it sucks

and craig, nah it wasn't insured but the driver that hit me was insured, and has been charged with neg driving.

I've got an independant assessor coming to look at the car tomorrow, he'll take into account all work done on the car and the base shells replacement value, my mechanic will also put together a statement of all work completed on the car.... we'll then wave it infront of GIO and ask for a pay out

I've also been advised that the assessor will also take into account how long this car took to get built, so that'll play in the final asking price.... and i wanna buy the wreck back coz there is a fair amount of goodies on it that i wouldn't mind transferring to the next project (s14 engine and s15 brakes)l.

I'm just so pissed off about the whole thing, the tears have only just started to subside, I'm absolutely devestated. It'd be a completely different story if this was my R33, but I, along with my mechanic had put alot of time and effort into putting this car together only to have it smashed up by some careless idiot who was too busy playing with his mobile phone than watching the road.

But anyway, no use complaining about what's already done... just time to pick up the pieces and start planning for the next project. Ps. it won't be another skyline unless it's a gts-r

    • Did and sync timing with light 
    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.
