thought i'd join in, just got it for a week now and loving it

not sure which mods to do first but considering

- powdercoated wheels

- autokits rear diffuser (maybe eventually i'll want a front lip and side skirts too for a sportier look)

- grounding kit?

- full exhaust

- air intake

- custom dyno tune

- rear sway bar

- coilovers

Choose your exhaust carefully... Beware of the 'drone'.

half asleep parking in a shitty parking spot at work... scraped the pole. yay me haha

First quote is $1120 to fix ... seems pretty OTT. Probably because of munching the quarter panel as well as the front bar. Any recommended crash shops?

Without seeing the damage that sounds about the price to repair both the bar & the quarter panel. If your in Sydney- Ultra Motor Body repair at Homebush West - In my street . I doubt they will be cheaper but their work is always great.

Finally installed the rims that I brought from Japan as check-in luggage haha

My Rays Volk TE37 are lighter but the SSRs are not bad too!

After going without a Skyline for almost 5 years due to the death of my old R33 RB25/30 setup Ive finally made the move into a more livable daily setup.... So Here's my recent purchase, 2008 370GT Type S with 32,000kms

Pretty much stock aside from a Fujitsubo Legalis R Axel back exhaust (Didn't know you could only get that section without the whole cat back :unsure: but anyway...)

Have also re-styled my plates to the New NSW Import versions :yes:

    • 2 spots that my exhaust guy joined the 2 pipes together  Made a big difference. I'm now able to live with it. I can make it louder if I want by removing the HKS caps.
    • Hi all, considering clutch upgrade to support 1130 engine hp from 1650cc injectors on e50 at 85% duty cycle (1650 x (11.85/14.7) x 85%). Narrows down to these three as they can be converted to use gm 26 spline input shaft if I ever want to use transmission with that input shaft (orc1000f and r3c easy/cheap just change center hub; tr2cd pricier must change clutch discs). Pricing orc1000f similar to tr2cd, r3c about usd 200 pricier. Orc1000f triple plate 200mm. Tr2cd twin plate 215mm. R3c triple plate 215mm. Claimed max torque : orc 1000f 723 lbs ft; tr2cd 800 lbs ft; r3c 1100 lbs ft. Why orc1000f triple plate but claims lower max torque vs tr2cd twins? Is orc1000f underrated? Any info maxing out these clutches? Info on street/traffic driveability/pedal feel? Thank you for any info on them.
    • Some troubleshooting, connect up a timing light/gun with a proper ignition lead on coil 1. Hold the revs at 4~4500rpm and see if your timing is all over the shop, scattering off its tits. If so, there's a high chance your CAS is fked. But I read you have a Link ECU ready to go in, why not just skip all this and put that in - will make troubleshooting so much easier.  
    • Misfires when the car is fully warm are generally attributed to the coils (and/or the igniter, on cars with a separate igniter). They can stop working properly when they get hot for a number of reasons. Either electric/electronic, or from thermal expansion opening up gaps and allowing HV leakage. Seeing as you have replaced the coils, that could/should rule them out. But I wouldn't always assume so. Were the coils genuine? Or is there a chance you have bought some counterfeit Chinesium shit? Then we're back onto loom connections. They can fail when warm/hot for the same reasons. Inspections, cleaning of contact surfaces, ensuring that terminals are fully inserted, etc etc, are all justified. The same (heat effects) holds true for the other electrics and their connectors. AFM & CAS, primarily. If you try that Chinesium AFM, drive it around on low load until it is properly hot, but do'nt give it more load than you have to, except when you need to see if it will still miss. I'm dead serious about the untrustworthiness of the calibration of those copy AFMs. Injectors are unlikely to get hot unless the fuel is coming back around hot. You could try squirting them with compressed air or freeze spray to cool them back down to see if they are maybe the cause.
    • Alright, all the plugs looks good. Noticed that it starts to get bad when the car is up to temp, that's when things starts to misfire hard. next to do is Injector cleaning and such. Got in touch with a shop to do work on the injectors next Monday also help on diagnosis.
