We bit the bullet today and dropped the gearbox out of dad's road GT-R. We're still waiting on the new front shaft to arrive. But the car is all tarted up on the outside now, and apparently it looks alright.

Spotted the BMS II GTR today ben in my very hungover state.

Update for us, spent till 2:30am on friday night at the sign writers getting done, developed a miss at symmons on thursday so hopefully that is all good now (think it was just fouled plugs).

All the little shit things i am not capable of doing are being done today, and hopefully get some more recce in this arvo.

Good Luck to everyone, come say hi and don't be afraid of the pink pussy!

Spotted car 819 scrubbing some tyres in at Basky today. Had a couple of issues so they called it a day early. Can't wait for it!! Will make sure I come say hello to a few people if they are about........so if someone comes up and says "Hi I'm scotty from SAU"....thats me :lol:

We did a 3:36.78 in the 200sx with a few hiccups along the way few missed gearchanges and bloody launching off an island!

Currently placed 5th in the rookie behind Vandenberg (EVO), Dunkerton (EVO), Maguire(Sti) and Coutts (Sti).

So not too bad!

yeah we're stoked, 3rd in category 8 :whistling: hopefully we can keep it up tomorrow.

But more importantly....can anyone who can lend us a 32 GTR gear shift tomorrow give me a call on 0419 BOOTY CALLS - we have lost the nylon bush at the bottom of the gear lever on the other car so there are no gears....help!

we will source one from nissan tas or the mainland tommoz, but we will need one for the day to stay on the road.....HELP

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
