Hi! Been hardcore lurking here for the last couple of months in preparation for picking up my Skyline (which I did last Saturday).

Name: Clem

Age: 26

I drive a: 1997 R33 Skyline GTS-T Series II

I work/study as: Software Developer

Cruise/event attendance rate: None...yet.

Music taste: Yes, I'm exactly the type of person who would like music.

Would be keen for some meetups, but I'm not exactly sure what happens on these cruises :huh:

My car was very well taken care of by the previous owner, it's got air filter, full turbo back exhaust, R34GTT SMIC, Apexi SAFC, and tuned to 198rwkw.

I need to do something to put my stamp on it. Started with a new Pioneer HU w/ 7" foldout screen. Would like to get a R33 GTR wing and a varex exhaust asap.

That's all, maybe you'll see me round :)

My ER34 is currently waiting in Tokyo ship yard for delivery to Aust. Once the car is shipped over, it will be complied in VIC, then trucked over to WA. The wait is killing me! I have wanted an R34 since Need for speed underground 2 came out! Golden week public holidays stop anything from happening until the 20th of this month :(. So it looks like I'm stuck lurking here revising mods until the car arrives!

Hi Guys, new to the site and new to driving a Skyline.

Name- Daniel

DOB- 1984

I Drive- White 93 R32 GTR

Cruise/Event attendance- None at this stage

Hobbies- Music, gym, cars

Music- anything from rock to hip hop to dance to drum and bass to dub step... hell anything with a good beat

previously owned 180sx then got a work car got bored after not having an import for 2 years so decided to get a project for the weekend. Stumbled across a R32 GTR (always been a favourite) which was ok but did need alot of tlc, figured perfect project. plus getting it at wholesale it didnt hurt the back pocket at all.

Only thing is i didnt know what had been done to this car from mods to previous maintanence. spent a few days going through every inch to see what was done, then checked on this site and found a little bit of a history on it. It kind of has been the SAU whore and it seems like it has been let go recently but i plan on bringing it back to life.

Just replaced every bit of fluid on it gave it a full on major service, comp test is showing 170psi across the cylinders...... the fun now begins

Hi guys - complete newbie to the whole skyline scene!

Name: Hannah

Dob: 1986

I drive: dark grey 2008 V36 GTR coupe

Cruise/event attendance: none at this stage

I have inherited this car from my late partner and unfortunately we didn't much time to enjoy it together (or for him to teach me anything) before he tragically passed away. It's a japanese import and I only know the basics (how to drive it to the shops) but haven't figured out any of the fancy things it can do. I am 100% open to any advice, tips and instruction! And a Japanese translator..

Thanks for the japanese manual too - kinda helping!

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
