Well im getting the complete engine from Perth..

Was going to go with the bare engine in an Adelaide wreckers but after speaking to them wasnt happy with what they had to say etc. Could compression test it, had no idea the amount of kms its done, not even sure if it ran fine before removal. Asked what happens if i put it in and its a crap engine. They said that fine bring it back and we will swap it for another one. lol you think im putting an engine in, then removing it again then putting another in etc etc lol.

So yer should be here end of the week....

But now my mechanic has to have a hernia op... lol cant win!! (poor guy tho!)

Fingers crossed all works out ok...

Sounds about right for a few around Adelaide...

Was reali disapointed in the way they handled it. oh well....

Hey anyone got any ideas what i should get for a stock as a rock 33 GTR?? LIke stock as in stock, wheels, stock, exhaust, stock computer etc etc

Yeah, most people would get scared if they read "spun bearing" or "engine blown"

Not neccessarily cause they can rebuild it to what they want and the new owner knows what's in it..The only trouble is getting a decent price :P

I see you have two threads running Adz :P

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
