G'day ladies and gentlemen, new to the boards (although some may recognise the username from ns.com, jzx100.com etc)

I am about to receive my first Skyrine :blush: :blush: Swapping a f**king mental JZX81 track car for it as I lost my job and need to down grade. It's owned by a member of the board so I won't bother with full blown out intro of it, but it's a 32 4dr.

I'll be out at Mallala doing skids in it when I get a source of income, but for now it's a lawn ornament (much like the JZX81 was) :D

Might chuck up some updates as I customise it to my needs/driving style and slowly run it into the ground. Will mainly be here to pick brains about why it's not working or how to fix it when I brake it, I'll leave the random banter and shit-talking for NS and jzx100.com :banana:

until next time

:w00t:

I've got a 32 hooked up, picking up tomorrow. My JZX100 was the shit, just an all round awesome car. Didn't have a huge mod list, but it just did everything that was asked of it so well. To give you an idea, I kept up with a 34 GTR through the hills with just an exhaust and some 17s with good tyres. I was 3 up as well :D

This is my JZX100, swapped earlier this year for the JZX81. (and yes that's me giving the thumbs up in the photo :banana:)

This is my JZX81 (which is leaving tomorrow to make way for the 32)

The 32 will be doing what the JZX100 is doing in that photo when I get another job :)

Cheers mate.

Yes Chain of Ponds is definately for the win :banana:

I don't expect the 32 to be as nice on the street, but on the track it should suffice as it has a few more drift-orientated mods than the Chaser did.

I'll throw up some pics when I get it and clean it up a bit.

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Even more fun, leave all the ADAS stuff plugged in, but in different locations, hopefully avoid any codes!   And honestly, all these new cars with their weird electronics. Pull all the electronics out Duncan, and just shove an aftermarket ECU and if needed a trans controller in, along with a PDM. Make it run basic but race car styled!

      To follow up a question from earlier too since I had the front bar off again (fking!) This is what is between the bumper and the drivers side wheel And this is the navigator side, only one thing but its a biggy! So basically....no putting coolers in the wheel arches without a lot of moving other stuff. Assuming I move to properly race prepping this car I'll take that job on and see how the computers respond to removing a whole bunch of ADAS modules

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      So I prepped the car for another track day on Wednesday (will be interesting to see coolant temps post flushing out and the larger reservoir, with a forecast of 3-14 being 20o cooler than last time I took it out). Couple of things to mention; since I am just driving the car and not taking a support vehicle, I took the rear seats out and just loaded the back up Team Trackday style. Look at all that space! To cover off removing the rear seat....it is weird (note the hybrid is probably different because it wouldn't have folding rear seats) Basically, you remove the lower seat base, very similar to a r series but it is a clip that pulls forward to release the base rather than it being bolted down. Easy Then, you need to remove the side section of the rear seat on each side. There is a 14mm head nut at the bottom of the side piece, the it slides upwards off a hook at the top to release; you also need to unhook the seatbelt from the loop at the top. Then the centre piece is weird. You need to release/fold the seats forward with the tab in the boot on each side From there, there are 2,x12mm headed bolts holding the rear of each seat to the folding bracket, under the trim between the rear seat and the boot (4x christmas tree clips there, they suck). The seat is out but you can see where the bolts attach to the bracket

      As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
