I had to buy a new engine a while ago and found a motor with a genuine 32,000km.It looks like a R33 but has the smooth black CAS.This means the CAS drive is also different but thats all.The inlet manifold has the extra barb at the front of it as the R34 does but it also has the metal timing belt cover unlike the plastic one on the R34. It isn`t a Stagea obviously as it didn`t come with 4wd sump.Could it be a laurel or cima? The problem is I`m concerned the cams may be different as I still can`t put more than 15deg. into it at the top end.Have new injectors and GCG turbo and no restrictions anywhere as I custom made the dump pipe so even the waste gate is much bigger than anything you can buy on the shelf.

This motor is frustrating the crap out of me.216kws is not good enough.

I`m reaching the limit of my computer inteligence to be on this amazing forum.But to give you an idea,I was at Bel Garage this afternoon and they couldn`t identify it either.Think of a series 2 R33GTST but with smooth round crank angle sensor in black.People I have been to are:croydon,advan,unique,race solutions and internet everywhere.

It runs great and crisp on the throttle with fantastic fuel consumption.I am ready to pull the cams out just to satisfy my own mind all is ok.I`ve heard the R34 doesn`t really go any different with cam gears but what if it has same cam specs as R33? Those cams have to go.Do I here 260deg Poncams?

      My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.

      Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).

      Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers

      Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.

      Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
