when i got my konis they also had (camber tops)? that came with the shocks, don't know if they were an extra needed as the car had the electronic (hard/soft) tops before?? i have the orange konis like the ones on e-bay they are height and firmness (harder/softer)adjustable!

not sure i havent checked... im more concerned about the rears

the rear should be fine as there not inserts but bolt ins, if any thing they may be slightly shorter, if you look at your centre console just up from the shifter there would be a switch to select hard or soft front shock settings!

didnt get to use it on the r30 but did test drive a r31 gts-x with the same system and you can tell the difference with cornering! if you don't have it then the front insert should bolt right up to the existing tops!

Question time from the lad in adelaide...Stock ECU and stock injectors..Are they going to able to work with my VG30 turbo and FMIC?? Im worried about leaning the motor out and blowing it, my mate had a S4 RX7 that im getting the injectors out of very soon (he just maxed them @ 8psi at only 6000rpm) and getting aftermarket ECU eventually, but i wanna know if im going to able to actually drive the thing or if its going to sit in the driveway for nother 6 months whilst i save for all that!!

when putting a vg30 on a rb, do all the oil lines etc line up exact or what?

also, i've got the dr30 (fj20) dash in mine, any one know how to hook up the tach... i mean the tach signal is one wire, but there's 3 on the back of the tacho, (i'd assume signal, earth and power?) and also will the signal direct from the computer run the tacho accurately or at all?

asked the same ? got no responce, you may have more trouble than me as the fj being a four would have a different signal to the rb, i've got to a point where i've done a transplant from my 5door dash of the tacho as its a 6cyl version but no good, i fixed my speedo the same way but no go with the tacho!

u may require a resistor somewhere in your dash, i know when u put an SR20DET in a Bluebird to get the tacho to work you solder a resistor inbetween the signal and another wire (think earth??) on the back of a tacho, id imagine its the same.

I'm thinking .... old 302 .... old skylines.... old 302..... old skyline, as I sold my Mr30 for cheap.... Maybe organise putting 302 in old skyline.....

Fun, Fun,, burning fun...

as soon as i read this i pictured twin exhausts sticking out the rear of a r30 :headspin:

I would imagine they are the same, as its the same turbo just bigger in physical size internally

i gave up after last weekend and added 400 to my budget for a 5" tacho with shift light, that is alot more cost effective than trucking the car to a auto sparkie to fix it! looks better too! i will look into it though thanks..

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
