Hi everyone!!

My name is Kenn, I bought a white R34 GTT about 6 months ago. I've been here for quite awhile, and spent way too much time stalking the classifieds for parts, but never got around to saying HI! ;) I'm in St Lucia, studying at UQ. And oh, I'm quite keen join a cruise, if there's any going on? Maybe I should pop by the Baskin Robbins meetup one day if its okay?

Seriously... lrn2english. You'll find the search function works a whole lot better if you can spell. Otherwise you'll just find topics and replies from other people who don't know "brought" from "bought"...

Oh yes Isola, you might just very well be my tutor for Professional Writing Communication course. *gasp!*

Hey there all.

Bought an R33 96 Skyline Series II M-Spec II in February and absolutely love the thing. Use to own a commodore, but a fairly uniquely looking one so it wasn't all too bad. Once I drove the R33, couldn't get enough of it, I love driving now.

Usually driving round the logan/beenleigh area.

Do you drive it in to uni? There are a couple of members that are studying there. If you see a 4dr 33 driving around give a wave.

Feel free to drop in to basins on Thursday, just be sure to come up to the tables and say hi.

Rarely, honestly, because I live within walking distance of school(or the fact that I never turn up for classes). haha, will do. Just checking: is the Baskin Robins the one at Milton Central(beside the supermarket)?

So im in Fig Tree Pocket, about 9kms out of Brissy. Just moved here from Adelaide. Anyone able to go for a cruise tonight? or perhaps later in the week :whistling: Is there somewhere I can find members on a regular basis??

Check the events section there's a weekly meet up that way, I think it's on a thursday night?

Hey all,

I'm new to the forum, seems to be heaps of info on here which is fantastic to see.

I'm based in Geebung but I could be seen pretty much anywhere on the northside of brisbane at any time.

Got a 98 Red Stagea S2.

Hope to see some of you around.

Hi Queenslanders! My name is Steve and I'm soon to be off my P-Plates very early Jan. I've got a Skyline R32 GTS-4 and the passenger seat feels great so far! lol.

Just trying to get the damn thing working properly in time but once it's good to go i'll be keen as for SAU cruises and the likes. I love the whole Jap time attack scene and the skylines "Jap muscle car" rep... The sound is just the icing on the cake.

I've been on the forums for years, but never introduced myself properly, mainly because I didn't have a skyline.

That changed about a month back. Picked up a nice R32gts-t, and i'm absolutly loving it. I mean, coming from a holden drover, the handling... the torque (yes... i think a 2L motor has amazing torque alright. The effect will wear off on me eventually), the power. The lack of turning circle (i know its not bad, but again, compared to a holden drover).

The car has an upgraded exhaust, changed suspension (lowered), and as far as i know is running standard boost etc. It'll stay like that for a while, as i can't really find the money to do any crazy engine upgrades.

That's the car, how about me?

I'm Peter, and i study Mechanical engineering at UQ (starting 4th year this year!), but I live on the southside near Mt Gravatt. I can't see myself driving the 'line to uni much, since the bustrip from garden city takes 15 minutes, But hopefully i'll see people around here instead. Will have to get myself along to some cruises or meetups or someting somtime.

Welcome dude. Theres a couple of us southsiders around and we do dinner sometimes on Thursday nights. =)

Hey everyone.

I used to live on the Gold Coast (now live in Canberra) But I'm up here for holidays. I have a silver 4 door R33 GTS4 and I'm really keen for a cruise or even just to meet up. I've seen Baskin and Robbins mentioned a few times, which one is it? Just so I know where to come and say G'day

    • 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. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
