hey guys....

well i have been signed up here for a while now but i am always too busy to find a computer. i am 15 years old and pretty soon i will be able to go for my learners. i have worked for a damn long time in various jobs around my town gilgandra (think dubbo) and my parents have agreed to split the cost with me... so far i have around 5-6 thousand dollars saved up and i have had my mind set on a skyline for a long time because i love the way they look and sound, not to mention that there are no other 'lines that i know of around where i live.

anyway, back to the point... i am a complete N00b at this sort of stuff (i know a bit about car engines and such) and i would like to know if theres a sort of introductory 'guide' to modding a car and what to buy and where to find the best prices, what sort of skyline/engine you all recommend and the like. it would be a great help. thanks

p.s sorry about the long post.

    • That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.
    • They are daft and there's a reason it never caught on. Steering feel? We don't need no stinking steering feel!
    • I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.
    • Define "starting to fail". Wy not just rebuild them?
    • Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
