Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

ive asked this question elsewhere, but to no avail. Need some advice from anyone running an RB20DET, and using an aftermarket oil pressure gauge.

finally got my oil pressure gauge in on the 31. Did an oil change while i was at it (naughty me, 2 practices on the same oil and she's black as hell). Admittedly i changed my grades of oil (as i had some sitting around from drift school) - gone from a 10w30 to a 20w50...........wouldnt have thought that would make THAT much difference tho

started it up, pressure started at 30psi..........after about 30sec i hear a warning beeper going...........look into the cabin and see the gauge at 2psi.........turned it off, checked under the car (no leaks etc, nothing wrong). Started it again (mind u, its running EXACTLY like it always has), back at 30psi, and after about 15sec the oil pressure is dropping off back to 2psi again

im confused. is my gauge knackered (its brand new), is my sender knackered? I know it couldnt be a true reading as for that low a pressure the thing wouldnt be turning over. There aint no death rattle, nothing like that. Wont get a "legal" chance to take her for a drive on the street till at least next Monday, so wont know how it behaves under load until then.

any advice/feedback is appreciated

fk i hate it when im the office scape goat.. i organise stuff... the ppl involved don't communicate, then i wear the fall out when the customer shows up and the sales tard turns around to me all like wtf where is the techo??

sales guys sh*t dont stink, and they have no honour...

techo's are delicate genius' needing everyone to tip-toe thru the tulips. and feign not understanding things if its 1/2 way laymans terms...

and both only pay attention to procedures when it suits them.

/rant over.

i feel better now

Better off turbo'ing it..

Voids the insurance exactly the same but at least you may get away with it as the cars are released with turbo if your ever pulled over. + then you can use it all the time. :(

Even still a ~100hp nos is bugger all; you'll still have a stock rb25det with a pfc sit side by side if not whoop yo ass. :D

150hp you may pull away but very slowly.

We don't have a track nos can be used at. ;) One day AIR will reopen for drags.

but why should i be like every one else who has a turbo'ed car? honestly what ever happened to uniqueness??? i dont want to be like every else.

and im sure if i ever take on a stock GTT i would be able to keep up i too have a power fc. i have many plans for my car, and none of them include a turbo.

and what about mallala?

      R34 GT-T cycling ABS pump

      I downloaded the apps (for windows) and Consult 1 doesn't have this function on it for the Consult 1 plug which I'm pretty sure all Skylines have. You would think someone would have a workaround after 30 years for all Skylines which have ABS.

      Also, I don't know the actual ABS system on the skylines, but a sneaky thing could be a piece of electronic equipment that makes the ABS think you're moving, and then same piece can send a signal for a locked up tyre... Activate ABS without slamming brakes...

      The team at OBD2 Australia are pretty good, shoot them an email and ask them. I've dealt with them before for work stuff. I'd be shocked if it didn't work, so long as Consult can activate the ABS. But you might need to use KLine for it which would be the stopper, as I don't think that piece does KLine comms.

      Yeah and hence my ghetto way of slamming the brakes, get the ABS to cycle, rebleed seems to be a sensible workaround.

      Hey! Happy to help. Nothing inherently wrong with the adapter, it's more so with Brett Collins himself. He gave me a lot of incorrect information when I was in contact with him and was extremely rude when I challenged him. He stated I could not use any aftermarket twin plate clutches except for his own, not to use the dush shield, bla bla bla and it was all BS.  Collins stated to cut roughly 14mm's off the housing, I took off 15mm to make room for the dust shield. I would confirm with whatever adapter manufacturer you're using.
