in the riceness?? dude, you realise your on a skyline forum right? you work at retravision or somethin?? :)

Hang on there. My GTR doesn't have neons or a dose pipe. It's a skyline but, it's not "ricey".

Rice is what you have once you desend into the realm of it. The pointless noise and looks dept.

Be proud either way I say. If you are ricey then just be there :banana:

Rice is Serious Business

a few of you has met my friend Leigh and knows the problem he is having with his car. he bought a bov from autoworks and had them install it along with a pod filter. the car shoots out alot of black smoke when the cars in neutral and when driving most of the time there is smoke coming out of the zorst. the bov has been tightened all the way to the end and stil opens at low boost without any surging. when driving up and down the street and coming to a stop the revs dipped once or twice but stopped, but after along drive from beechboro utopia we stopped at a car park to check his oil and it constantly kept dropping until we revved it abit. i know putting the stock one will make the idle problem stop but with the black smoke there seemed to be less black smoke after we tighted it so would this help with the smoke aswell? do you need a tune for a pod filter?

black smoke = less air in cylinder then the ECU thinks there is. Causing it to inject more fuel (rich)

bov tightened brought the air - fuel ratio closer to correct.

but there is air still escaping from the induction path, somewhere after the AFM and before the cylinders.

gaskets, clamps, hoses, check everything.

when you cant find anything else, change the bov to something you know that works. if that fixes it. you know there is something wrong with the bov.

simple fault finding here.

    • Hi guys, long time no post as per usual! It's been a busy year so far, the biggest thing being a new job.  After 28 years in the automotive industry I decided it was time for a change.  I was losing faith in the industry and where it's heading.  Now in a completely different industry (electrical) working for a company that manufacture water pump contollers.  Not as sexy as cars but it's an interesting,  challenging industry. I now don't work Saturdays which is a bonus!  It's still 50-55 hours a week but having Saturdays ack after 28 years of working them is awesome!   No news on the GT-R but i did decide to add some more JDM goodness into my life....           1990 300 ZX.  She's not perfect but for a 35 year old car she ain't bad!  Just going to tidy it up a bit and enjoy it.  It's currently auto but will start stockpiling everything for a manual swap. It WILL distract me even further from the GT-R but im hoping not for too long! It somewhat proves a 6'8" freak can fit in a 300 ZX.  Sort of...  I drove it home from the previous owners house in Melbourne via Black Spur and Merton Gap (2 awesome bits of Victorian twisty road) and it was amazing!  Handles so well!!!   I don't think it would be worthy of a full build page but I'll post up some of the upgrades here if anyone is interested?  Cheers guys!
    • End game is to: - Remove all the slop from old worn parts - Adjust setup so that the wheels actually fit and the car is drivable (currently it is not because of the extreme rubbing on the guards).   Progress over the last couple of days, removed the rear hubs! Next steps: - Buy bushings - Replace bushings/bearings on hub - Reinstall
    • Cracked deck  And other cam snap stuff   
    • A few random issues have popped up since my last update. My WMI pressure sensor failed within about 10 minutes of it seeing liquid. It was a 20$ China special, so I'm not surprised. My name brand replacement should arrive today.  My power steering assist also decided to crap out last weekend. The usual, works for about 60 seconds after starting the car then I lose it. I dusted off my old copy of NDS and connected to the HICAS ECU. Code 4 for assist solenoid.... I tested the solenoid and it's fine.  I knew the day where my HICAS ecu would crap out would come, and I welcome it. It was the last HICAS part on the car that is now in the bin. I've ordered an SSR and I will control the power steering solenoid with my Haltech ecu. It will be nice to have proper speed referenced assist again after all these years.
