High fuel prices give me more reasons to get a Nistune system for my baby. She runs SO rich, you can hear the big pop (and probably see flames) every time it changes gear while giving her a bit.

350-400km out of a tank currently, I should be getting better fuel economy then roughly 16L/100KM even with my lead foot.

Pretty much. 400km out of a tank is about average for a Skyline I think. You won't get much better than that. Fuel economy is overrated anyways :thumbsup:

Lol at economy - what economy!! :whistling:

Yeah just put the neo turbo on, all is good. It's pretty much a case of needing money elsewhere in my life at the moment. I'm sick of constantly wanting to buy new and better parts for my car, and as long as I have it that will always be the case.

I wanna get back into music in a big way which unforunately like most things is going to cost a little. Also wanna start looking at having money for a house deposit etc in the next year or two so this is kind of the first step towards that I guess.

Shhhh, no telling me my economy is normal! If I continue to think it's too high and running really rich I can convince myself that a new ECU is a sensible thing to do, as opposed to a fun thing I want :P

11-12 for me, I'm going to get a nistune once some slacker buys my Cefiro.

Yo Two cents, does ol mate at the Ice-cream meet want to make an offer?

im between 380 to 430 out of a tank with the light on .....

how far do you reckon the 34 would go with the light on? lol

my best trip in the GTR was 466km from 39L, This included some quick trips up and down the summit of the bunyas. After i realised i have kick ass ecconomy I stopped calculating it :P

Don't think he would be buying for a while yet, + i think he's pretty set on an r31 :/ Will talk to him tomorrow.

    • 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
    • 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.
    • 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.
