Did you end up going to the coast ?

Yeah I did... funny story...

Time will tell I guess. Got spares in the car in case there's another shit fit. It's still a bit spitty.

What was the cause of the problem? Or did you do a 'Fuck it, I'm replacing everything' fix?

what was it ?

I'm guessing that it was a coil pack. Have replaced it with one of McFly's spares, and so far so good. Have the spare loom and another coil pack in the car just in case it's the loom, or multiple coil packs. I think tomorrow I'm going to pull all 6 out, and re-insulate them even if they look like they don't need it. I don't see why it would still be spitting with new spark plugs.

Oh... and any guesses as to why my oil pressure sits low at idle, then increases to around 4 under acceleration?

oil pump is driven off the crank so more revs = more oil through the engine = higher oil pressure. Should be around 2ish at idle and then up to 4 under acceleration.. I think.

Had a better look tonight. It drops to almost nothing when idling, and goes up no higher than 4 when under load. Usually sits between 2 and 3.

It used to just build up to just under 4, and stay there until the engine was off.

Was behavior acceptable?

    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
