So you just replaced the oil and it has fixed everything? :P

Sweet, that is great

the happy ending was refering to "polishing" =P will pay cash for someone to do it for cheap? :mrt:

and nah, oil didnt fix it. its booked in monday at boostworx. Infact, i think the noise is slowly getting louder and the new oil has quietened the overall noise of the the rest of the car significatly so the tapping REALLY stands out now (you can actually hear it if you stand next to the car with the bonnet down, where as you couldnt before)

its been sugested that its valve clearances and requires a new shim, but i might take it to the meet point befor the cruise on sunday just to get some other opinions.. then again, not too keen on driving it still - despite many people saying it should be fine

also should be getting new brake pads this week!! woot! some brake places are recomending i get my discs machined, not sure if its really needed tho

good to hear evythingis going well with your car =) got pics of front bar, going to wait till its completed/painted first?

Anyone watch Initial D on SBS last night? First time i seen it, and must say, WTF with all the jumping screen shots, and freezing frames LOL. Then again, I've never seen the cartoons either so wouldnt have a clue how it compares to the action scenes in teh cartoon.

Overall, average movie I think, but amusing none the less.

I have photo's of it unpainted but i think i might be putting it in the shed for its unvieling at autosalon this year maybe but still deciding on that one.

You will just have to believe me for now that it looks very nice and for anyone that is interested it is a top Secret front bar made for the GTT not the GTR one.

If you look in the bodykits section on the forums you will find it in the r34 bodykits section.

was never not going to get it checked out, i just want to learn as much as i can, i think its important to get to know your car so that you can properly maintain it. So while i was waiting for some money to come in, i figured try out a few things to see if i could resolve the problem myself =)

i think the Power FC must have been "reset" when it was taken out for compliance, and is probably the cause of the problem =P but it'll be in the hands of experts now

      Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.

      List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter?

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By tylink720 · Posted

      @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
