When I over order I just keep eating until I can't move and it hurts to breathe. Make sure you put a long movie on first though!

hmmmm... so... step one probably should have been "get engine checked" before "purchase car" ?

Hey any of you guys got a vipec v88 installed on your gtrs?

I just got one installed and i don't think its quite right. For starters, i made 1kw less power apparently then the factory computer.

Now it doesn't idle correctly in my opinion (sometimes almost stalls and then jumps back up, other times just idles fine)

Then when your going from vacum to boost, it kinda hesitates and jerks a bit then all of a sudden lauches away????? WTF is going on with this thing? any ideas

Thanks guys and girls :whistling:

Sounds like what my car was doing when the coil packs were playing up.

Who installed the Vipec?

I only just installed splitfire packs before i even did the ecm. Also i got a hks twin spark system installed as well at the same time. Wonder if thats whats giving the issue.

I won't say who installed the vipec as i don't wanna slander anyone when i could be something out of there control.

Same people that installed it tuned it.

Yeah its going back to them next monday. They recon it would be fine to drive till then (had it since thursday and already put 300ks on it since. Not by choice)

Thinking it may have something to do with the tune. They were recommended to me by twoogle. But they haven't had much experience with them apparently. But said that they would be able to tune it and make it run like a dream. Now runs like a bag of sh#t and i really hate driving it. You look like a tard when you try to take off cus its got a huge flat spot and almost stalls!!!!!

Edited by 32vspec2gtr

Ha ha yeah i recon!!! Am not impressed to say the least.

Do you get to many meets Isola?

Gotta get around to meeting up with some skyline drivers and that. Just haven't had the car running smooth enough to get to any yet.

    • Hi, i’m making a rb25det coil loom for Vag short coil. Can anybody tell me which Ecu signal wire belong to coil number 1 and 2,3,4,5,6? The connecting switch in above pic is 8 wire i think white is for +12v and black for earth.
    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
