BLOODY OATH!!

hahaahha, lovin life, seems like good weather today, taking it in for a clean =D

Lolz good to hear. you might see me drive past one day. i'm usually everywhere. so i'm gonna horn at cha ass! i'll be the one driving a white n/a s15 :)

btw share some more photos of your 34 when you get the chance yeah. cheers buddy!

if you drive normally on an N/a and a turbo

the turbo will definitely consume less petrol (from experience)

but... wehn u begin to hit boost... dont those vtec just happen to be next to you?

haha n/a are actually ok, im getting around ... 10L --> but i can tell my car running a bit rich.

but i drive like a grandma. nothing over 2500 rpm hahahhah

see ya lads!

:D Until the turbo kicks in, its basically a NA, And with Turbo skylines, the compression ratio is lower than in a NA, so you basically have less power = less fuel consumption, that is until the turbo spools up and you hit boost and fuel starts pumping in like niagra falls.

Haha yeah Mingy, dun worri we'll hit the strip one day hehe .

Anyways, nah man no new pics till she goes to the car wash, and that aint anytime soon looking at the weather lol.

Had some bad experiences with my other cars, wash it for an hour or 2 including polish and interior, then it starts to pour down !

Worst thing lmao.

Alright no worries. keep us updated. :)

btw i've heard polish and wax is pretty much useless. it comes off after 1 wash or 2. so i'd recommend detailing. i got my family civic done recently. its black so swirls and sh1t shows real easy. i used a product called Paint Protection Shielding. basically its a product which covers your whole car with a protection coat and makes your car shiny. it protects against sun, acid rain, bird/bat poo and other chemicals. good thing is that its permanent so doesn't come out after washes. it only cost me $250 all up including labour. might wanna give it a go!

Autech S15 for same price as Spec R FTL

NA Supra will kick an NA R34's arse...

NA Supra is just as quick as a Twin Turbo Soarer, mean car just a bit heavy... in saying that Supra's can look porn...

someone here said NA's have awesome handling as opposed to Turbo car and my comment to that is 'what..?'

R33 or R34 - i discussed this before in the other thread, R34 = newer, nicer interior and in my personal opinion, exterior (not biased even though i own a GT-T) blah blah blah...

i've never been in an NA Skyline ever but i wouldn't say a Turbo car is basically the same as an NA until turbo kicks in... from when you put the pedal to the floor before your Turbo is fully spooled up you're building sweet speed with the turbo... oh whatever, i'm too tired to discuss this...

Autech S15 FTL

NA Supra can be good...

R34 > R33

Well it does get boring behind my desk lmao, so might aswell put some brains on here, and look around. I swear everytime i visit the forum i learn something new!!

haha, anyways, hope this thread here helps future N/A buyers :P ..

    • 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.
