Ok,

The awesome Muz has supplied me with some badges for the Stagea and since I can't seem to source a new axis style front grill for love nor money, I've decided to start mucking about with the badges anyway.

I have on the car:

standard nissan front grill and rear hatch

Stagea on rear

250t RS and Four on rear hatch.

I have in my hands:

2 X Infinity badges (front grill style and I assume rear hatch - both same size and about the size of the Nissan front one)

INFINITY lettering

M35 badge

So here's what I'm currently thinking:

Front grill: Infinity badge

Rear: Stagea on left, Infintiy letters across the middle and M35 on the right. A bit like this but with the add ons. What does everyone think? Placement opinions? usage opinions?

De-badging adds to the mystery and makes it harder for people to dob you in to the cops...

I take it that's not your car pictured - I like the tail pipe treatment - looks like some serious negative camber for the rear wheels!

Yeah not my car pictured unfortunately.

The front grill comes off by popping out a couple of plugs and popping a couple of clips. First problem I've got now though is that the nissan badge is huge and sits in a circle which is part of the grill, so the infinity badge is too small. New grill only option.

If you are looking at going all Infinity, there is also stainless steel or aluminium (can't remember) Infinity covers for your door kick panels.

Coooolll.

I want infinity for the rear but I might keep the nissan for the front until I can get my grill. They're the same really (Company wise)

My car has been partially de-baged (brought it like that)

The car doesn't say stagea anywhere on the outside of the car. all there is left is the RS-FOUR and Stagea unicorns on the front and the RS-Four sitcker badge and the nissan badge on the tailgate. the only "badges" I've put on is the small Monster Engergy Drink logo (the green claw) on the rear windows where the old stagea uincorn sticker badges were

I did this to my series 2 awhile ago.

A bit of searching on ebay (USA) got me 2 bits of Unicorn bling.

Got a disc laser cut, and carefully placed them on and pour self-leveling badge resin over them.

Of course I own a sign company, so some of the stuff I had.

Lots of people gave it the thumbs up though.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.

      Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.

      Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By MBS206 · Posted

      I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.

      By Duncan · Posted

      Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
