great day, i was dissapointed, and will shove new fuel pump in this week sometime. so many cars... so many numbers. the guy with the ss was funny, we all thought he was a bit off with his projected figure, he said he would be appy with 220, despite only making 250 at the flywheel or so from factory, and he got 240 or so and shut us all up lol. good on him.

nice to meet a few more people too.

and the sausage sizzle! awesome. i think i had about 5 blew all my cash on food.

After 2 1/2 years of my GTR sitting in the shed with a craked piston while i got married, had a son and brought a house,i finaly got the time and money to pull it out and rebuild it at which time i had a closer look at the turbos and they appear to be stock, i checked the part numbers by googleing them which gave me a page on sau which had the part numbers listed as stock and after a chat with John from unique autosports he suggested they might have steel wheels and should put a magnet on them if it stick they are steel if not then they are stock, when i did that the magnet did not stick to the wheel but it did stick to the housing though the soot, which i would have to asume they are genuinely stock turbos doing 290rwkw, [email protected]

i only got it started last weekend after rebuilding it in my garden shed and am trying to run in, if i can get the wallbro in and get it on the dyno to check tune after not using for 2 1/2 years and putting thiner head gasket on i will for sure, work permitting

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
