call Harold from performancelub.com. I will PM you details, his place is in Fairfield or similar so not far from you.

Here is his website and products/prices.

http://www.performancelub.com/index.htm

He only has good oils, the Castol is both German Castol (0w30) and from the US for the 40wt. I always get redline from him. The M1 is from the US also, all are top shelf.

Everyone should be buying from him anyway cos its shit loads cheaper for the good stuff.

He runs the business fror his home and therefore is always there!

Cheers

hey all

thanks for the help i got some oil sorted -

im a stupid head and didnt realise the local servo would have some oil - shell premium 10w40 just cost me $70 though

for those who want a laugh

brought some new 10w40 turbolight 4100 and i dropped the sump bolt, get rid of the old oil, no worries

ripped off the old oil filter, got the new oil filter, rubbed some oil on the seal and put it onto the engine

little did i realise the old oil seal was still on the engine so when i fitted the new one they both clamped up real tight

it felt like it was going on normally so i thought it was fine - sump bolt back on - filled her up

gave it a crank good oil pressure around 3kgm2 and oil spewing out everywhere - doh!!!!!

so had to drain it all - didnt have a prefectly clean container so had to ditch the new oil didnt want to risk dirt etc

so drained it all out, refitted sump bolt, removed the filter, and lo- and be hold the old seal was there too - woopsies

anyway - an hour later - some frustration and swear but all good

:banana:

    • 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.
    • 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
    • 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.
    • 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
