Well on the weekend had to make an emergency trip out to dubbo...anyway went through mudgee, wellington etc...the whole time i was down there...i saw 1 (thats right...1 import) and that was in mudgee on the way back yesterday.

I know of at least 1 member on here (raps86) lives in bathurst...and i used to live there..

I'm just curious if there's any other country ppl with imports?

Steve's Auto Barn

...owned by Steve Philips is at Blackheath. Good name!

He services Nissan Imports (as well as other cars) in the local area and...

He had one of his cars on the front cover of Zoom Mag. called 'Buster'. It's now owned by his head mechanic Wayne.

He himself owns an R34 GT-R. He hoisted my 2 cars up for inspection at point of sale/purchase.

He also has a new 4WS wheel alignment section (albeit 2 yrs old now).

Bus. No. is 47877172

While I don't live out west any more (not since I was 5 any way :P), a few times a year I drive to Gilgandra or a property near Burren Junction.

I have to say, the Skyline handles the roads to and from these places no problem, providing I don't get rained in. 2WD + mud = epic fail lol

ive just moved out west for a while to a place called orange and its full of imports. But it is kinda pointless being a small town and all as the cops are always harrasing ya and theres no where you can really go for a cruise.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
