Nothing to worry about skyline fuel pump has a nice sock on it so shouldn't drag rubbish up either

nick there is plenty of leeway between fuel light and empty my manual says there is 9ltr in the tank when the light comes on thats almost 100kms

i did the same at lukes house once due to parking on incline :nyaanyaa:

Its better then what my sister did!

She was driving me to school in her old 4cyl VH commodore (HAHA it was the funnist car, brown, stockies etc) when in the middle of an intersection at Golden Grove it ran out. She left me in the car while she walked home to get mum (had no credit on phone).

I was 14 in school uniform stuck in an intersection and RAA drive past and offered to tow me out of the intersection so I jumped in the drivers seat and got towed while everyone walking to school stood watch. Good times.

lol I remember picking my RX-2 up from the workshop with an extra 100bhp over when it went in, the problem was that it drank accordingly. I picked my new GF up for our first date, and the thing ran out as I was turning right on North East Road! Thankfully I was heading downhill, and there was a servo on the corner, so there I was pushing the thing across the intersection, with the GF refusing to get out the car and help lol. I should point out that GF is now the mother of my 3 kids :nyaanyaa:

Ok got a 10L jerry and the gauge just moved haha....

Got it in the shed, wired in SITC.

Drove to BP filled it up went for a quick drive to warm it up.

Go home check base timing with light. Bang on 15 deg. Wind in 5 deg advance on 800rpm on the SITC check timing and suprise theirs 20deg advaced. wind it 5 deg retard and their we have 10 deg advanced... So its all working :D sweeett

Now am going to source and fit a 3" dump/front pipe and get it to boostwerx for a SAFCII and SITC tune

    • Hello everyone, I'm glad to join you.
    • Definitely do-able haha. I will give it a try if the fuel pump hanger does not solve the issue. Just need to find some quiet time in the area, Malta is like a big city and I live right next to the main hospital so it is very busy during the day. I'll be installing it in about 2 weeks, found a garage that is pretty knowledgeable and has the necessary tools. This garage has worked on multiple builds, even for competitions. They even asked me to stay with, so I should be fine.
    • Just to add, I found the r32 gtr ecu the most forgiving, the r33 one would get the shits. 
    • For what it’s worth I drove my gtr for over a decade with gt-ss as a true daily after I pulled off the -5s, I had it engineered and went with stock ecu etc.  never skipped a beat.    I would only worry if you can’t get good fuel all the time in a tropical paradise
    • I bought an engine from a friend of a friend many years ago, it was sold to me as a RB25det Neo.    recently I started pulling it apart and noticed that the intake manifold was pretty different from others that I had seen on RB engines so did a bit of research and found that it was a non turbo manifold. So I’m sceptical now that it is a NEO DET and just thinking it’s a NEO DE (it does have a turbo strapped to it currently).    can you identify the engine model from the numbers on the block?
