thinking about changing to one of these

wait till you throw a balance shaft on the 4g63, mine did off idle , a very common problem, destroyed the block in seconds. and the all wheel drive fuel economy sucks.

mitsu dependability :cool:

turbo failure a few months later, and a few clutches, gearboxes, and transfer cases later.. good thing it was only a daily not a racer, or it would have never made it to the race track...daily driver, hell it was broken down more then it worked..lol

and that was on a basically stock tune evo/vr4 drive train, not a highly tuned monster.

plus R34 prices have fallen into the toilet for resale ?

go for the Lada..lol they come with duct tape and bailing wire to make them last forever..lol

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

Did they let you drive it away from there? When I changed over rego at Regency on my old MX6 in 2002 they gave me a razor blade and told me to get the tint off on the spot, else get a tow.

Sounds like a light angle grind on each side then a shifter spanner or locking pliers Dave. Works a treat!

lol sounds like my issues dave, sinergy put my tires on and obviously used the wrong size socket on my expensive blue alloy lug nuts. had two rounded out in a big way, they went thru the trouble of filing them off after they got them off to remove the burr they left . only issue was it shows bad on blue nuts when the rest of it is shiny alloy.... trained monkeys , a socket must fit tight on the lugs or the rattle gun kills them when you hit the trigger, its not rocket science ????

Oh damo,, its always better to piss(hear about issues) before you shit(buy a piece of shit)

you could always buy a forden executurd...lol

AFAIK those sites are live, so once u submit an ad it is up for the length of time that u pay for (much like ebay)

Or enclose the bottom of the VE, put a few fins on, and turn it into the boat that it is. RWKW? I think not. How many killerwasps do you have at the prop man?

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.

      Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.

      By Duncan · Posted

      Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
