4 months of skyline ownership and yet to get any attention from the boys in blue. I feel unloved. Maybe this is a sign i need to take my exhaust off or something to attract some attention.

edit: to be fair though, i don't daily drive it.

edit edit: and of course i didn't realise there was another page of stuff here

I dunno about that, still never been pulled over other than at RBT.

I generally only get pulled over when I deserve it.

Except for that one time, when they pulled me over because I honked the horn at someone who didn't give way to me at a roundabout...

Eggggggzackery, Where you drive, when you drive and How you drive are the difference between getting pulled over non stop and barely getting a glance

PRO TIP: Dont drive down blunder road on a weekday during business hours

I never get pulled over.

You just get tonnes of free photos in the mail

Hello ya bunch of skirts.

After some opinions on highflows. I have the oportunity to buy a secondhand GCG highflow with apparently only 5000km's for $1200 delivered. This could be a winner, but the thought over getting a Hypergear jobby for less and is 'new' is appealing.

The only 'benifit' the GCG unit has is that it used a BB CHRA unlike the Hypergear and that you can use the standard oil feed line. The downside of the GCG is that it is a R33 item (Stagea uses R34 turbro) and I have seen a few of them requiring a rebuild after 20thousand kms.

I think I'm leaning towards the Hypergear as it also comes with a 60k warranty if installed correctly....

Thoughts? discuss.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
