OMG it lives!!

Got it fired up yesterday arvo :)

now just trying to work out all the bits n bobs of the microtech hand controller, and try and get it to idle right, is rich as hell everywhere atm.

Sounds sweet with the Kakimoto exhaust!

hahahah it smoked out the complex because its running 8:1 afrs at idle lulz

leaned it off to much and it stalled....and then the battery when flat :$

Snap... :P

What turbo are you running?

I wants your ATR43!

Going to put my turbo up for sale soon, so if you want it, mani and dump etc lemme know.

8:1 i hope you have the replacement spark plugs ready, they wont last long idling like that i know mine didnt at 10-11:1 :D

hahah yeah might need to get a set or two

initial start-up is crucial to new engine Andrew...... get it running decent and put some load through it.

all this idling bullshit when running fat will hurt it.

Its not a new engine, its the 25 thats been in the car for a while, i def wouldnt do it to a new engine so im learning the microtech on this one :)

Lol yeh that maybe true, but at the end of the day its a toyota! Nuff said! Probably just me being a true nissan follower.

But to be fair we used to race with a bloke who had a soarer and it was a quick car!

    • Well, yes, every CU on the bus is available via the Consult port, but whether the scanner you are using is capable of talking to the TCU, the ABS/TCS modules, etc etc, is what is at question here. Many of them are only for engine codes. So, if you have one of those, you won't know if the ABS is having a bitch.
    • That's now. R chassis Skylines come from a time when the tolerance in the ADRs was a bit more....slack. My car, on 235/35-17, which is damn near the exact same size as the original 205/55-16, is pretty much bang on correct indicated speed across the whole legal range. That's demonstrated with constant speed run over 5km, and GPS speed. It's just the luck of the draw. My particular speedo head has to be the thing that is "calibrated" that way, because everything else (the diff ratio, the gearbox and the speedo drive**) are all same same as most other Skylines. **OK, so the speedo drive is a Navara unit to drive the R32's cable, not the electronic unit than an R33/4 would normally have with teh same gear on it. Otherwise, I applaud your OCD tendencies, and I would do the same if I needed to.
    • Not too sure, I believe the Nissan consult port does everything? Also just filled up the reservoir to full and the light is still on. The float seems to move up and down fine.
    • The speedo's can be very conservative, when my Mazda NC MX5 speedo is showing 118kph, the GPS, and a calibrated radar.... cop mate.....hits me at around 110kph +/- 1 or 2 kph, and that is on a 215/45 17, stock tyres size is 205/45 17 as well, so weirdly conservative with stock tyre size When my Commodore speedo red 116kph GPS had me at 110kph on 255/40 17, so again conservative Google says manufacturers need to set the speedo from 4 to 10% slower than actual road speed.....for safety.....and compliance  After doing some offset and clearance measurements to see what can fit the NC on 17x8 +40, without guard rolling or rubbing anything at my current ride height, I've decided that when my tyres are toast, I'm going to fit 225/45 17 and see where that gets me IRT actual speed of my speedo and GPS/radar From the online calculator I should be still be doing around 5kph under an actual 110kph when the speedo is showing 110kph My ADHD requires that when I'm doing 110kph on the speedo, that the actual road speed is actually really close to that, and not alot slower And going from 205 to 225 still keeps the car within the %/mm allowable in the NSW vehicle rules and regulations, which is nice, as long as I'm looking at the latest version that is.....LOL https://www.nsw.gov.au/sites/default/files/2021-02/RMS-13.464-Light-vehicle-modifications-Vehicle-Standards-Information-No-6-November-2013.pdf
    • Take the value it measured as, and pick the closest range available that is above the reading on the screen.   Also, no point just testing the coils. Read what has been said again. You need to test all your wiring, everything.
