Sorry I haven't got back to you Nismo_R33 been sick and I only got the Internet at work.

I got my Unichip installed at another place, I only got my car tunned at Autotech. Off the top of my head I can't remember how much it was.

Don't know if he tunes SAFC. You might have to give him a call and enquire.

I finally got round to getting my Skyline on the dyno at Autotech. It confirmed that it was quite a bit down on power (around 20-30 KW compared to similar skylines). They said it probably was the exhaust, so I have had a complete 3" system from the turbo fitted. Failing that they said it could be the airflow meter or the camshaft advancing mechanism? I believe it is still down on power from what it should be, even after fitting the new exhaust. Where can you buy airflow meters for the GST25ts? Also waht is the camshaft advancing mechanism. I will get it back on the dyno asap to confirm that something is still crook.

My skyline is only 60k kms old so I am a bit annoyed something like this is wronb with it, but thats cars for you. Any ideas appreciated.

Well my problem has been solved. Thank heavens. To start the process of elimination I fitted a new 3" exhuast. There was some improvement. I then reset the computer, and the car was immediately transformed. Had it dynoed again yesterday and it compared favourably with another Skyline with similar mods (exhaust only). It is now getting around 130kw at the rear wheels. I can only assume that the cat was faulty or the muffler was too restrictive. Still does not compare in performance to the silvia though.

      I dunno about that as a blanket statement. Pitwork is Nissan's "Nissan genuine" thing, and for stuff like timing belts, I have found them to be excellent. Of course, for things like oil filters, you always use proper trusted brands anyway, not whatever the OEM has taken to using.

      Ahhhh... If you were putting 12V to the led in there, that's likely made it very unhappy. Chances are how you put power, was 12V across an LED that's meant to only have about 20mA through it at peak, and a forward voltage of about 1.8 to 2.4 volts. That circuit is likely only a 3V3 circuit, and will have a resistor in series with the led too. That's my guesstimate on that light, without having touched one.

      Another vote for installing them and see how you go.  I mean, you already own them, why would you not fit them?

      I have had too many of those over the years, my cars have a toolkit or at minimum a cheapy multi tool thing because its too easy to be snookered by some stupid plastic clip that stops you checking the battery terminal isn't loose.

      Basically, if there is a part# on the nissan catalogue, it is a genuine part. There is a thing called "new old stock" which is stuff made years ago but never sold (or landfilled), but it is super hit and miss what you can buy. Other than some expensive Nismo stuff there is nothing new being made that suits these cars. The only time to be a little careful is (mostly in the US I think, but maybe Japan too), Nissan started rebranding some cheap crap maintenance parts like oil filters as "Pitworks"; stay away from them, if you are buying cheap just buy whatever the local car parts shop carries The three part numbers have an explanation on Amayama: 0V005 is auto, base style 0V015 is manual 0V505 is auto, hectic momo branded ones, maximum F&F points there!
