rest assured, it will more then likely be your problem, the oil return needs the freest flowing path straight to the sump.

take the sump off and weld in a fitting.

i put a turbo on my n/a and i had the problem but when i took the turbo back off since i got defected there is a bolt plugging up the oil return into the sump and then water line aswell just have a look for urself open the bolt and turn ur car on and u will see straight away :(

ill give ya power figures in about a week trying to sorce an aftermarket ecu to put in, i borrowed a friends and now he needs it bak so i havent put it up on the dyno

Just an update, after 2 weeks of looking for a power fc i've given up, and called vpw and ordered in a microtech lt12s plug and play ecu for $1500 only anoying thing is its going to be 2 weeks before i see it grrrr, so the place where my car was at said they dont have enough room to keep it in so i picked it up tonight and its running perfectly but way too lean to be able to drive. just to anyone thinking of doing the turbo conversion make sure you either get an aftermarket ecu or a turbo ecu and a proper piggy back NOT A SAFC as they dont have enough tunnability

What about just getting your ecu remapped?

i was going to get the ecu re-mapped by dr. drift but he was waiting on a dyno and now he's away in tazzie until the 22nd, im still waiting on my micro-tech hopefully it comes this week, i got a mallpassi fuel reg, and am thinking of putting a front mount on if the computer doesnt come this week, as soon as i get it on the dyno ill post up the results

i've been told different things, the standard ecu 2 places told me it will work no probs and 2 places told me that it wont and you need gtst wiring loom, then i've spoken to 2 people on here with power fc's in their na's and they said they work no probs and one person with a link and it works no probs so i went for the plug in loom but if it doesnt work plug in i guess i can get an auto elce to work out which sensor wires are diff and swap the wires on the loom, i havent found a na ecu pin-out anywhere so i cant get any defonate answers,

yay i just picked up my malpassi rising rate fuel reg, that should push the pressure of the injectors up a bit when it goes on the dyno, for anyone who wanted to know the first dyno read out was 149 at the wheels with an r32 ecu +safc 2, didnt touch the ignition timing and it was running really lean and the air flow meter was about to shit itself. now i got a new airflow meter and a fuel reg and the microtech should push it up a bit higher than that, and if i dont have to many bills i might see if i can get a bigger smic mabye a r34 one, i dont want 2 intake mods and atm i like the poddy sound lol, tune still looking at being next week cant wait,

yeh im not driving it at the moment i got a mates 73 rolla its got a supercharged mr2 engine in it, its pretty fun to drive lol. i cant wait to get in the skyline agian so much easier to drive smoother and i cant wait to see how this thing is going to go, i havent really had a chance to give it any real stick since i put the turbo on, i had on go and i was getting wheel spin on full throttle when it hit the crazy 5,000 power band really hoping for a fun car.

hey my microtech is coming in on tuesday YAY i cant wait, but i could get it booked in for a tune until friday, do you guys think the car will be safe to drive (cruiseing it of course) with the base tune of the microtech, its a base tune for a turbo gtst that is ment to run really rich so that the car can be driven to the tunners no matter what sort of state the car is in, you guys think it will be safe or should i not risk it???

just to let you all know i havent abandond this project the cars going in for my microtech install - malpassi fuel reg and tune so should have an af readout and dyno graph and some sort of OHHHHH yeh feeling tommorow might be too obsessed with the car tommorow to post it straight away lol but ill get it up there when i can

You better show up at my place after man,

I'm really keen to see how this little project worked out :D

Stu Daddy

Cool good to hear, so this is the third person to confirm the whacky power delivery after 5000rpm :D

Must have something to do with the cams?

The cams are identical in spec the only difference is the vct switch over. The N/A being later.

So I'd say was occuring is torque starts to fall off slightly then vct switches over and torque picks up again.

With the turbo earlier switch over point it may very well be that its switching before the torque drop off and when it does switch it simply holds that torque a little better giving a more linear feel compared to the n/a switch over point.

lol .. I hope that made sense.

GRRRRRR im really really f*ing pissed off my microtech didnt turn up now i had to cancel my tune till it comes in i been waiting 3 weeks for it grrrrr, and another thing to top the list i put a gtst ecu in to drive it to work today and the car is running rough as guts on start up it seems to run rich and retard for the first like 2 minutes then when you driving it sometimes it feels as if the car is being really restricted like a blocked exhaust or the boost is leaking out somewhere but it doesnt look like either are happing just feels like it hope its just cause its not tunned but i duno now grrr

    • I ordered a GSP Front R/H Axle from here - https://justjap.com/products/gsp-premium-front-driveshaft-r-h-nissan-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-stagea-4wd#description It lasted around a year before one of the boots blew out. I'm lowered, but I have GKTech roll center adjusters. One year seems a little premature. I think I'm going to spend the extra money on an OEM cv axle this time. This website - https://tfaspeed.com/collections/nissan-stagea-wgnc34-x-four-parts/products/nissan-stagea-awc34-260rs-rb26-right-front-axle-drive-assembly Makes it sound like the readily available OEM CV axle will only fit 11.1999 Stagea and up (mine is a 2.1997 S1). The JustJap listing didn't mention any years or anything for the GSP axle. Amayama shows '11.1999' and up as well for that part number. As well as 'plastic boot type'. See attached picture. So I guess my question is, does that axle (39100-23U60) really only fit S2 Stagea? It's the front driver side. If it does, I'd love to buy that instead of rolling the dice on another GSP. I've found that OEM one cheaper here: https://www.partsfornissans.com/oem-parts/nismo-jdm-r32-r33-r34-skyline-gtr-r32-gts4-right-front-axle-3910023u60 and here https://www.nissanparts.cc/oem-parts/nismo-shaft-ft-drive-3910023u60 Just a little confused because the JapSpeed listing for the GSP front driver axle doesn't mention any specific years or anything and it fit my S1 Stagea fine. So will 39100-23U60 fit my S1 Stagea even though technically it says '11.1999' and up? What would have changed? Thanks.  
    • Thanks for the info. The only "Issue" I've had with the shifter is I always found the throw between 4th and 6th gear too close. I'm always worried to shift into 4th accidently and sending my motor to the moon. Adam LZ recently came out with a video and stated Serialnine revised their shifters to correct this and will change all the revised parts for 150$. Strangely enough, I contacted Serialnine right after and they denied it and said it's bullshit. I found that strange as he's a distributer. I'll keep this forum post updated on that saga.
    • Yep that is correct. It allows you to adjust the short throw range from what I can tell
    • Car has been running great, I've put about 300km's of break in time on it. First thing that stands out with properly sealing rings is no more noticeable crankcase smell coming out of my catch can. This may seem insignificant, but the constant smell while driving around was infuriating. It's also nice to see my oil level remain stable. Two new issues have developed that I only noticed this weekend though. There's a very noticeable driveline vibration past 100kmh. I only noticed it now as I've been babying it under 100kmh in the backroads. This comes as no surprise as I'm running a one-piece shaft, and I paid zero attention to my driveshaft angle when I put everything back in. I also have a fair bit of voltage drop on hot starts. The starter audibly is forcing. No issues on cold start though. I must not have removed all the paint under my main block ground during assembly. I'll try and take care of both those issues this week once the kids are asleep.  I also received all the parts I was missing for my direct port setup. I will hopefully have pictures of that up soon. I'm hoping to get back on the dyno the week of June 30th as I'll be on vacation. I'm confident I should be able to make north of 500rwkw on pump gas and WMI. I'll go back again later this summer with E98, but I want to confirm my ethanol content sensor is working properly first. I've never seen it read anything but 11%. This makes sense for our 10% ethanol content pump gas here, but I would expect the occasional movement between fill ups. 
    • 75% complete. Will now need to get a new axle with 5x114.3 hubs and then figure out how to customize some mudguards for it once the wheels are on.
