lol as old as this thread is i had to reply

this is some of the most funny shit i have been reading for ages.

there realy is some drop kicks in the car scene. an OXY!!!!! wtf are you on about.

springs are $150 a pair so for the sake of $300 you would rather an oxy!

how the hell did you afford an r33 in the first place? did your mum buy it for you?

its sad shit like this that make the performance scene look so bad to the coppers.

seriously. sell the skyline mate and buy a hyundai. you suit it.

Its equally as sad that you dig up such an old thread to post such a pointless reply just so you can flame another forum member to make yourself feel better because mummy didnt hug you enough when u were a lil boy.

And this is only your second post on the forums! Looks like your going to a wonderful contribution to site :D

wtf was the point in you posting?

Hey just curious

I was thinking instead of buying lowered king springs etc because i want a custom height for my car, of just heating up the springs with an oxy accetelene blow torch.

Ive done this previously on my vn commy couple years back :miner:

Ive got a r33 series 1 1993 skyline with standard suspension

What do youse think? And im on a very tight budget haha :P

cheers

I know it's old post, but anyway... all you gonna end up is a weirdly uneven ride height, like in my case... My car is about 2cm lower on drivers side compared to passenger side. and I didn't do it on purpose, just shit old worn out springs.... I had to order custom made new stock height springs because you can't find new ones anywhere

by heating up the springs and allowing them to cool on there own will be like normalizing

this will lower the car but it will also soften the springs and they will be less stiff

my suggestion is buy some springs or cut the original ones

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off.

      I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell.

      Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
