Joel, as I posted before, mods such as full exhaust, FMIC, boost control to 14psi , fuel pump and piggy back ECU (such as a haltec) will net you ~200 awkw. And this is from an owner of a Legnum, Sil80 with RB26 for circuit sprints & an R32 skyline on ozvr4 when asked about the whether to have an R32 or a legnum:

Seriously though, line your Skyline up against my Leggy (has around 180rwkw haven't had the minceptor properly tuned yet but it'll be very close to that) and i will beat you every time pretty much everywhere.

Don't bother asking the SAU guys what you should do, they'll all say keep the Skyline.

Having had turbo Nissans for a long time, the Leggy is a much more practical car. The Leggy/Galant will cost you more to operate and the parts taek a little longer to get, but overall, the Leggy is more of a businessmans EVO, in a wagon

ps a Leggy with around 180-200awkw is similar in pace to a line with ~ 260rwkw and yes i'm speaking from experience

*sigh*

Back to topic;

Anyone mentioned the Series 3 R31 Aussie Wagon? Plenty of em around, cheap to repair, easy to mod, blah blah...

And best thing is, since its a family you're putting in it, u won't go so ballistic when the kids trash it... unlike a stag or legnum or evo :blink:

True. But they may want something more modern and with all the goodies like airbags, ABS etc.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
