Thread is win.

I can definitely relate to at least %90 of the posts...

You know you drive a skyline when...

-Spending double, triple, or even more than the cars value on mods is reasonable to you.

-You get confused when people get dramatic about you telling them the above figure.

-Yellow speed signs are half the speed you should use through the corner, comfortably.

-The only Skyline left in your Skyline is the shell, badges, lights and block.

...When you get home only to discover your wife has had enough of nagging you to move the exhaust, FMIC and spare petrol tank out off the spare room and lugged them up to the attic herself (the petrol tank would have been a huge pain in the ass)

...When you buy a set of stock R32 gtst wheels off eBay cause the tires on the 17" are bald and it will make you a profit to just sell the wheels on instead of buying new tires

When you spend upto $150 on second hand skyline floor mats cause your didn't come with any and your wife says "you could have bought black ones from supercrapauto for $10" and you say "but these ones say SKYLINE on them"

When you park it somewhere and turn your head and admire numerous times whilst walking away from it..+1

some more...

When you stop caring about the cost of petrol.

When you no longer know the meaning of fuel economy.

When someone has repeated the words "OMG I just jizzed" in your car

You research where the nearest undercover carparks are along a cruise route just incase of rain/hail.

You cant get your car DVDplayer/stereo/radio to work because its in japanese and you dont care.

You no longer crinch at the thought of wiping runny bird poo off your car with your bear hands. (only done this once)

you need to see a chiropractor to fix your back from driving your line too much. (stiff suspension)

When visiting your olds and your oldman automatically parks his brand spanking new commaboat on the street so your 11 year old car can have the garage. Thanks dad!!! :cheers:

And finally, When your driving and you get to the end of a twisty road and turn around so you can do it all again.

You Know You Drive A Skyline When... you justifed to yourself that paying rego on your non going skyline for a whole year is worth it.

You Know You Drive A Skyline When... When your family tell you to sell it and buy a better car.

You Know You Drive A Skyline When... You and your mate start talking in rb skyline langauge about mods and people just stare at you.

You Know You Drive A Skyline When... you start researching mods and ways to improve your engine, rather then doing homework or any other chores.

You Know You Drive A Skyline When... you start dreaming about Skylines and you wake up refereshed... and wanting to drive your Skyline.

    • Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi 
    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.
