Are you on or in the mix for the KHR30 on eBay?

It's sitting on $1250 at present and will sell for far less than your high of $3000.

There aren't a lot of these getting about in some reasonable condition and as it's complete, you could sell off what you don't want. Recently an L20ET complete sold on eBay for over $600.00.

Cheers, D

Well done Mister30, or is congratulations a more appropriate term?

You open a thread here 20th January 2009 with a request;

"Want an r30 coupe rollin shell with no engine and no gearbox but must have diff and wheels any where under 3 grand" UNDER 3 Grand???????

Then on 21st January 2009 you respond with;

"na mate got all the runnin gear just really want a coupe not to fussed on condish but any help much apreciated so if anyone is wrecking one or something but has the entire shell" .................. and,

Then on 23rd January 2009 you reply again with;

"Hey guys im really open to any suggestions so if you see one on google no of one on ebay or got one lying out in your backyard post up some pics and let me see" .............. and after several recommendations to go chase a coupe on eBay that most certainly will fall into your under 3 grand price bracket and after contacting the seller, you fail to go through with the purchase and the vehicle goes under the hammer for $2225.00 a long way short of your 3 grand ceiling. What's more, another member of this forum from Melbourne, now residing in Canberra was collecting bits to help you with your project and you didn't go on with that offer either.

What's the go? You ask for help and when you get it, you do nothing about it?? Are you just another GUNNA or simply another time waster???

You wont be scoring too many points on this forum with this attitude.

Congratulations!

You got yourself a steal in a lot of our eyes and bad luck for the dill that asked for our help and did nothing about it.

They are a dying breed in this country, any sort of HR30 JDM vehicle.

I was thinking about it myself, but my next project if it goes ahead will be an 260Z +2.

You can be assured that if and when you want any information or help and assistance, there is a wealth of experience and resources in this "Classic Skyline" section.

I'm sure we all would be interested in it's progress over time.

Cheers, D

Cheers for the warm welcome. I'm a long time r30 fan but first time owner (did own a 4dr R31 Passage for a while though) so its gone to enthusiastic hands- should be a fun project, I'll keep you all posted when anything interesting happens :) .

    • @Haggerty you still haven't answered my question.  Many things you are saying do not make sense for someone who can tune, yet I would not expect someone who cannot tune to be playing with the things in the ECU that you are.  This process would be a lot quicker to figure out if we can remove user error from the equation. 
    • If as it's stalling, the fuel pressure rises, it's saying there's less vacuum in the intake manifold. This is pretty typical of an engine that is slowing down.   While typically is agree it sounds fuel related, it really sounds fuel/air mixture related. Since the whole system has been refurbished, including injectors, pump, etc, it's likely we've altered how well the system is delivering fuel. If someone before you has messed with the IACV because it needed fiddling with as the fuel system was dieing out, we need to readjust it back. Getting things back to factory spec everywhere, is what's going to help the entire system. So if it idles at 400rpm with no IACV, that needs raising. Getting factory air flow back to normal will help us get everything back in spec, and likely help chase down any other issues. Back on IACV, if the base idle (no IACV plugged in) is too far out, it's a lot harder for the ECU to control idle. The IACV duty cycle causes non linear variations in reality. When I've tuned the idle valves in the past, you need to keep it in a relatively narrow window on aftermarket ecus to stop them doing wild dances. It also means if your base idle is too low, the valve needs to open too much, and then the smallest % change ends up being a huge variation.
    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.
