This is my new ride. I just picked it up and am stoked. Ended up gettingher for $13500 which I'm wrapped about because she is fresh as and bloody hammers. Here's a list of mods she has already:

230 RWKW

1993Nissan Skyline R33 GTS-T

RB25DET

* HKS GT 2535 BALL BEARING TURBO

* FULL 3INCH EXHAUST

* APEXI Power FC + Hand Controller

* NISMO FUEL PRESSURE REGULATOR

* HKS Air Filter

* TURBOSMART T-Boost Controller

* TURBOSMART TYPE II Blow Off Valve

* Z32 AIR FLOW METER

* BOSCH 044 Fuel Pump

* Intercooler 600x350x100mm

* UNIQUE AUTO SPORTS 5 Puck Extra Heavy Duty Clutch

* 17" Wheels with new tyres

* Painted brake calipers

* HKS turbo timer

* SONY Head Unit

* nismo front bar and veilside side skirts Fitted

Timing belt was done at 60,000kms

Made 231RWKW at 14psi. has much more potential

I am getting a bit of ping or valve bounce at top end 1st and 2nd under full load. It feels like she wants to go harder but I have to shift up due to the bounce. Is this just from the big turbo winding her out and not being able to keep up in the fuel department?

So I don't really need any more engine mods except bigger injectors and a more aggresive tune. I should be able to get 250rwkw.

Any ideas on mods for her though. Any ideas welcome!!!

Cheers

My good mate Shane owns PSI parts and Sniper racing. He will be helping me out with all the carbon fibre mods. All the interior inserts, engine insert (coil pack cover, heat sheild, radiator cover) and carbon finned bonnet. As for the AV side of it I have a system to go in with all the bells and whistles Alpine double din dvd unit, V12 digital amp and Boston speakers. My old man spent 15k on a full system intall on his GTS. Now he's got the new one he's giving his to me. "top bloke" lol. I want some bride style seat and I suppose that'd really be it I guess. It's got ample power now I just need to boost up the style aspect.

As for Neon lights I'm not really keen to go down that path. if anything maybe some reds to match the brake calapers.

    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
