ah my gtr has been garaged for 5 months.. thats what i get for moving around the other side of the world :(

Hows life over there dude?

Someone should really go and run the motor for a few hours. Yes, my hand is up. - haha kidding :)

.....but i will do it ;)

i guess it just goes to show what it takes to keep the ol GTR on the road :) I know I could have purchased a small south american country for the dough I throw at mine. :)

The constant effort got to me, always breaking a small but significant part etc

f**king thing

Anywho - the pistons and rods are downstairs for mine.....and the turbo is at aarons......mmm, aaron, can you come to syd for a bit kthnx

dude, blowing your motor is not a small part! lol hehe :D

i don't think i've ever really busted anything in the GTR. well i busted the OS tripple plate (too many trackdays/launches/skidpad/etc), i've worn out some tyres, worn out some brakes, done a few CV boots, but other than that i've spent all the dough on mods and maintenance.

yep I am so over the little things on my car,and it isn't even a GTR! SO over it I think they are both back up for sale after the July track day. As soon as you fix one stupid thing another weird noise or something starts

Ill be down in a few weeks

The turbo weighs LOTS though and so does the manifold and well the gate has to go aswell.

I think ill post it. lol

    • Have you done the Ignition Sync Wizard in the AEM software?
    • Find out what RPM it was idling at with the IACV unplugged. It's very weird that the rpm didn't change at all, and then it stalled. When it stalls is it nearly like a switch off, like you've turned the engine off? Or is it more stutters and sputters and coughs to death over a few seconds? Or does the RPM just slowly keep going down and down? Have you done a test of trying to start it with the AFM unplugged? Does it still die?     If you Follow Josh's advice on using Nistune to check the voltages (which is a perfect method!) if you see anything out of wack voltage wise, THEN get the multimeter out and read the voltage directly at the sensor. If the two vary, then you're now looking for a wiring issue vs a sensor issue. So be aware, what the ECU sees, may not be what the sensor is actually saying too...
    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
