Morning,

Sooo bit of drama on the way home last night. Got to around Browns Plains with Tony following me and the car started to overheat. Pulled over into the Maccas at Browns Plains and there was steam pouring out the engine bay. Not cool. So after 30mins trying to get the bonnet to open with no luck we jacked the car up and I got underneath to have a look. Bottom radiator hose had been patched with a bike repair kit :D So time to dodgy some shit up. Selleys kwik grip and some duct tape to the bottom hose and we were on our way again.

Decided I would probably only to get to Mum n Dads place rather than back to the coast. About 10mins from home the car starts to overheat again. I soldiered on until the Shell outside Jimboomba when the car conked out. Let it cool down again and drove it home. By the time I got it into the drive at Mum n Dads it was knocking pretty badly so 31 is dead.

Anyone got a RB30e long motor they want to sell?

Dude, it took me years of practice (and a racetrack + old GTX2 oil) to kill an RB30. It took you what, about a week? Mad props :P

Pretty sure dan has an engine lying around. Alternatively, I can get my hands on a GTS1 motor for you. Its the motor from the car in second/first place on all the QLD tracks here: http://motamota.r31skylineclub.com/index.php?topic=132340.0

Alternative 2: Alfa motor. Yours for free if you're going to put it in the 31 ;)

In other sad news, I dropped my oakleys and they broke in half :D

To be fair to it. It was driven for like 5 mins with no water in it. Hopefully Dan has something. I'll call some wreckers today, see how I go. How much for the GTS1 motor?

On the bright side if its a bottom end knock it should be good for several more weeks of abuse if you can get water back in it and stop it overheating again :P *knows from experience*

I just sms'd him on price, will send you a PM. Its more than I thought it would be, but still a good price for what you get.

you'll need to sort out fuel delivery and ECU (and exhaust) for the 30ET. Probably want a FMIC too. Plus its a VL motor :P

not to mention you'll need brakes and a mod plate etc

300 for a stocko 30 isn't bad from a wrecker. Worth about a carton if you can find one on the club though

ET it.... Haha.

What time did you get to the Brown Stains? I jumped back onto the centenary and did the logan motorway. I think your problem was caused by giving it a boot load from the lights after the detour, that and Tony seemed to be monitoring your A/F's. He had his sniffer so far up your pipe... :P

While all this bit ^ sucks rather large unshaven donkey balls

This part:

this set lasted me for years, although i did go through a few sets of lenses (due to my own stupidity)

they are without a doubt the best quality non-polarised lenses around, and I can't stand polarised.

unfortunately all their current models seem to range from being a bit gay to being a lot gay :(

      34 de+t conversion using s2 stagea automatic transmission, engine harness and ecu

      By albyz34gt · Posted

      Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By Duncan · Posted

      Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?

      My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.

      I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
