Start off with this is my first skyline owned and I'm very new to everything to do with it. I have just purchased a 92 gts-t with little to no mods (dumpipe and body kit) excluded. I'm looing at improving or starting any knowledge with my new motor vehicle and any sort of advice would be nice :banana: .

cheers

have a quick read in forced induction!

it goes like

zorst, pod, FMIC, coost controoler, ecu hahah name them all i guess!

K zorst and pod fare easy. What sizing with FMIC and brand names should I look for? Is ebay or secand hand worth a go?

Thanx in advance

mmmmmm i'd love to get me a coost controller :banana:

basically, the cheapest and easiest mods to do are the ones to do with how the engine breathes... so make it easy for air to get into and out of the engine.

keep in mind the bigger the cooler u put on the car the more lag u are likely to get, same goes with the diameter of the piping between the turbo, fmic and plenum... depends on your preference really :teehee:

Pretty much want something thats gunna do the job but not yell out defect and bring in to much lag as u said.

Second hand gtr an option but how common are they to find these days?

go into your nearest workshop and ask to purchase an RB26DETT,

the guys there will hopefully know what your talking about. Be sure to write it down though, RB26DETT.

:thumbsup:

ok seriously though,

Like everyone else said, if you wanna boost it hard mate grab a 3" turbo back zorst, pod filter & boost controller.

Branch off into a FMIC when you know exactly what you want to do later on if you catch my drift. Wouldnt worry about an FMIC to start with, maybe get some good suspension upgrades and a decent set of Japanese rims, Buddyclub, Volk etc. stay away from the cheap shit.

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
