hi all,

have just recently become part owner of a 1993 rb20det :D . unfortunately its the kind of partnership where i pay and they drive, i have to sneak a drive when no-ones looking.

not a bad car but not as good as it first appeared :D , never mind, gives us something to do on the weekends as long as the money and the skin on my knuckles hold out.

not really all that familiar with this type of rocket, more at home with older simpler style of vehicle and no doubt there will be a few queries and dumb questions :D to be asked as we get this one sorted.

diy & tutorials are great and have already used them a couple of times. a big thanks to all those contributors :3some: .

regards.

Haha - how does that work ?

Welcome,

Adam

hi Adam,

its simple, its called a father son relationship. i help purchase, he owns the ignition keys, drivers seat etc and i own anything that doesn't work properly or needs replacing. hope i'm not the only old fart caught in this predicament.

note... even though i've had 351's, 308's and a couple of quick bikes apparently i still don't know shit from clay, amazing how smart teenagers are and how dumb us oldies are, oh well back to it. its fathers day and we're sorting an idling problem. lucky for me i got a new set of ratchet ringys for f's day :/ .

regards.

      Welshys 32ZILA and the 8HP.

      By welshy_32ZILA · Posted

      Near 12mths since the last update apologies.  Car is back running and driving.  Have had a few runs at the drag strip also with a bit of success.  Managed to run tje cars PB with a 10.88 @139mph with a 2.0 60ft.  I have a stock 8hp converter and it's definitely too tight for my setup. But it drives on the street phenomenal. So happy to have converted from the sequential. Has made the car enjoyable to drive vs a what felt like a chore with the sequential.  Looking a at few different options for converters waiting for some feedback from SDE if he can do one for me.  Still a few minor things to work out regarding finalising torque reduction, I have it working but needs to refining.

      I honestly wouldn’t bother with this. They don’t hold up under any serious strain. Get the Blackline (Chinese fake Quaife) if anything, as it’s reported to perform pretty well.

      Asking where to source parts

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      For future reference, I believe all that Amayama does is act as a middleman between you and Nissan. Go to your local dealership, ask nicely for a parts account (I get 15% off with mine) and you'll get better pricing. Cheers,

      V35 Skyline possible engine swaps?

      By Blakeo · Posted

      Hi guys, I have a 2005 V35 skyline with the vq35de.  It is a drift car and has been stripped, its now running a standalone ECU and a body harness. Dash everything has been changed to a digital dash controlled by ecu.  The vq35de has been great, very reliable but wanting more HP atm the 35de is making 228rwhp. I'd like to be making about 350rwhp. From my research it looks like a vq25det lightly modified could be a good engine to swap in. I understand the CD trans will bolt up right to the vq25det with a 35de sump used.  My only issue is a wiring harness/ecu to control the vq25det, from what i've found the ecu is a lot different to the vq35de so my plugin for the 35de will not work. Is there any potential to use the vq35de wiring harness and modify as necessary to retain the plugin ecu?  Keen to hear what you guys think, or am I best off to chuck on a cheap turbo kit on the 35de and see how long it lasts.

      R32 Nostalgia

      Oh sorry Justin! I was racking my brain trying to remember names, not sure why I associated “Adam” with 7tune! I’m good, been away from Skylines for over a decade, got family and kids now. Just getting back into owning a 32 but it’s a whole different world now… tax is higher and tech is better.
