Hello fellow SA skyline enthusiasts....Looking forward to meeting and cruising in the near future.

A bit about my ride.......

1997 S2 Skyline GTST Cherry Red 5 Speed which i've owned for 6 months now.

UPGRADES AND RESULTS

1st Dyno cat back and pod 152rwkw

2nd Dyno as above plus 3 inch dump and hi flow cat 171rwkw

3rd Dyno as above plus Blitz FMIC 188rwkw

All the above dyno's were done at Aussie Dyno and Exhausts on Port Rd Hindmarsh.I'm pretty happy with the results so far and am thinking of purchasing a stand alone computer in the near future.

Cheers

Lee

hey mate,

welcome, looks like your 33 has some good power there hehe

Thanks mate i was a bit dissapointed at first but it didn't take much to get it going... I was expecting too much from a virtually standard car (cat back only when i bought it).Next on the shopping list is a decent computer injectors pump and turbo...I'm hoping eventually to have 250-270 streetable rwkw's.Definately struggles a bit with traction in first even with 265 rubber.

Cheers

Lee

Sounds like tou have suspension problems then, or at the very least "budget" tyres. Spend some money on good tyres and your traction should improve.

Only under spirited take offs does it loose traction.Tyres are Bridgestone Potenzas albeit nearly down to the wear marks.

does your car have the standard suspension in it neway?

When i bought the car i was told it had lowered suspension but i'm a bit sceptical (not sure what the standard measurements are).I know i had the front shocks replaced as the left front was knocking.Definately no coilovers etc.

    • Just to be clear, there were no lights or codes when the hiccups were occurring. Also nothing noticeable in the cars' braking. It brakes fine and the dash is clear. I only made the connection when it did throw a code and suddenly, despite the lights, it felt great again. 
    • Yeah they are sliders and this was in my head before I worked out it was the speed sensor.
    • Ok so we have a smoking gun.  A few weeks ago I had to replace a speed sensor that I'd fit incorrectly. I replaced the sensor and everything was fine with no lights or codes thrown any longer.  When I was doing some more bedding in yesterday I got ABS and traction control lights again and, considering when this happens those things are disabled, the pedal went back to normal with smooth braking and no hiccups.  The codes thrown are for the same speed sensor that I replaced. When I looked at the sensor I took out it looks like the tip of the sensor is damaged. So whatever happened to it, perhaps it has damaged the magnetic ring on the bearing (that I only replaced the other week). I'll get my boroscope in the hole where the sensor goes and see if there is any damage in there. Hopefully just the tip of the sensor is in there and the bearing is fine. 🤞🏻  It's worth noting also that the pedal hiccup happens more often and for longer periods now and totally goes away when the codes are thrown again which happens usually after 5 or so minutes of driving. Love all your help here as usual guys, thanks!
