That is so great that there is such a age gap? that appreciate the skyline. I was always under the impression that it was mainly the younger people that where interested in this car. WOW 18 to 50 didn't know it was so broad.

Yep I'm 54 later this month.

So far I've owned

S54

C110

C211

R30

R31

R32

R33

R34

V35

OK I've been a Skyline tragic for 35 odd years before they became trendy

Last few posts have upped the average

Turned "60" in April - still a couple of yrs younger than Jim Richards & still can't see myself driving an auto.

Can't afford an R35 import for a while yet anyhow. :P

So yeh, I was born in the 1st half of last century - just!

For a lark, I've sometimes contemplated walking across the road towards my car holding a white cane & wearing dark sunnies >

Then I'd shock the living daylights out of the onlookers driving a car like this :wub:

Datsun 1600 was my 1st car "new"; then,

Datsun 180B "used"

Ford Escort Van "Pharmacy Van"

Datsun 240K "new"

Alfetta GTV 2l. "new"

Sigma SE "used"

Volvo 245GL "new" to keep the family safe; but still got booked by police in light aircraft over Woodford

Skyline R31 Silhouette "new"

Mazda 929 "used"

Maxima G "used"

Alfa Romeo 164Q "used"

Skyline R33 GT-R (midnight purple)

Honda Prelude 5th Gen "used"

BMW 328Ci "used" + N13 Pulsar (daily)

Skyline R34 GT-R (pearl black) + Prelude 4th Gen (daily)

BTW, for the record, there were 2 guys older than me at the R34 GT-R 10th Anniversary Drive; which made me feel better :P

    • That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.
    • They are daft and there's a reason it never caught on. Steering feel? We don't need no stinking steering feel!
    • I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.
    • Define "starting to fail". Wy not just rebuild them?
    • Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
