Welcome to Skylines Oz.

The ECU is found on the pasanger side front kick panel. This is the panel directly below the glove box. You will see a 10mm plastic nut, undo this and pull the cover off, it takes a bit of fore to unclip it, be gentel through. (if you sit in the pasanger sit, and rotate the left foot towards the outside of the car, you will hit the panel behind which the ECU can be found.)

The stock ecu runs 5psi below 4500rpm and 7psi above that, there is a hack to make the car run 7psi all the time. Look under the DIY section.

In regards to modifications, get a full exhaust, a good boost controller and posibly a new fuel pump, as skyline ones a notourious for failing, posibly a new computer or a pigyback one, and 200rwKw or 270hp at the rear wheels is easy to get.

Wouldnt Georgia be better off with 4wds? :(

Tbilisi is a city with over million people so im sure there is lots of sealed roads

i would get rid of the hicas save 20kg in weight and makes for a better handling car

it must be cool 2 have the first line in Tbilisi

That doesn't sound like a stock R33 gtst. If it was stock, it would be in the 14's. The fact that you run over 7psi shows that it isn't stock aswellr.

Hi mate,

the highes you should go is 12psi maximum, 10-11 is safer. Over 12psi and ur exhaust wheel on the turbo will blow off. you shoudl upgrade your intercoole rif your running more boost. Also get a full exhaust system.

I bought boost controller but I dont know what is recomended PSI what i can boost on GTS25T? car is absolutely stock....

Please Help!Please Help!Please Help!;)

What tmc_2 said. Go 10psi. Although if you haven't put a full exhaust system on yet, don't boost it at all. The stock system is very restrictive and you won't reap the best benefits. Intake & Exhaust & intercooler first (although its probably colder there anyway), then boost.

i wouldnt be screwing any more boost into it without some better breathing. you need an exhaust, intercooler and pod filter immediately before boosting the poor stock motor.

    • Oh, forgot to add, A few months ago I was getting mixture codes and the car was using crap loads of fuel. You could smell the unburned fuel in the exhaust, it was crazy strong. Economy was over 17.5 l/100 and usually around 19. I smoked the engine and found a leaky CCV hose which I replaced and then I replaced my two pre cat O2 sensors, I also replaced the MAF. This fixed my mixture codes and improved my exonomy but I'm still 14 - 15 l/100 when pottering about town so something is still amiss. Throttle response is much better and it has more pep but I'd like to know why it's still so thirsty (and I'm hoping that whatever it is gives me a bit more poke).    
    • Car is on factory injectors/z32 maf/ q45 throttle body/ z32 ecu with nistune 
    • Hello all, currently finishing up a rb25 swap into my s14. Having issues with starting, car has spark (confirmed by pulling a plug and watching it spark), has fuel(confirmed by checking pulse/voltage at injectors all spark plugs are soaked in fuel). Car cranks over and pops into the exhaust with a heavy fuel smell but no attempt to start or run, I have torn the timing cover off and triple confirmed timing, turned the CAS in multiple spots both directions, attempted to start with coolant temp and maf unplugged, checked my fuel lines and made sure they weren’t backwards, checked voltage at cas/injectors/coilpacks, made sure all the grounds in the harness are connected and added a few grounding straps (1 from chassis to block, 1 from chassis to head, and 1 from chassis to igniter chip) I am getting stumped here. As a last ditch effort I made a full grounding harness tonight that’s going to run from the battery and add an extra ground from the battery onto the coil pack harness/igniter chip/ intake manifold/ Wiring specialties harness ground/ and alternator. I’m hoping maybe the grounding harness will fix it here but posting here to see if anyone has any other ideas on what else I can check. My fuel pressure is unknown right gauge will be here tomorrow.  IMG_3206.mov
    • yeah I was shocked when I checked my spare OEM on and as below that's how they come from Nissan. (side interesting note new NEO gearbox and replacement park lack the brass bush on the tips and its just all alloy) unsure about damage to the box currently back at 1110 to be pulled down/inspected and selector fork replaced as he built it previously and given the never before seen failure on his billet forks he is replacing it under warranty. He said he has used always OEM the keyway tab without issue for years so it could be an unlucky coincidence. I did talk to him about the sharp corners and stress concentration too. Re: hard shifts i got 7+ years out of the OEM one and the fork itself failed not the keyway. so could be bad luck as I said or an age thing + heat cycles in box and during fabrication of billet?
    • That's some really horrible design with the way it's cut/shaped! Is there much damage to the box that failed in? IE, new fork and you can go again, or is it a total rebuild again? Id be trying to build that piece from scratch, and getting some reliefs added in the corner to hopefully stop breakage, and then swapping boxes ASAP, and then doing the same to the currently good working box. I'm assuming hard shifts have not been friendly to it!
