oh snap haha, thanks for the information mate, Ive been reading about Karratha trying to find out more about the place, but that's probably the best description ive heard yet. Kinda killed my dreams of tearing up 200m of sticky tar, but im sure there must be a plase to go to burn rubber? Pm me, we should organise something some time :):O

And would there be a drag strip, or race track arround there?

i only work up here as im FIFO from Perth and im only here in Port Hedland for another month or two, afte that who knows where i end up, as far as a race track i highly doubt it, there would have to be an illegal drag strip the locals use as there is plennty of straight roads out here to go play on late at night :rofl2:

once you get there my Skyline should be ready to sell, ill pay you a spotters fee for selling my car!!

Well two skylines are ALWAYS, better than one! How much do you want? What sort of mods are done ect.

Im up there 4 weeks at a time Work at Cape Lambert. Yet to decide on what car to bring up, or i may buy one locally.

Not that i have been up there yet but if i was to choose between your 2 cars, i would choose the Passage. GTS too good to take i reckon.

I've been up here two years (fifo) and wouldn't advise about bringing a skyline up here... you'll have to run bp-98 for a start.

Not to mention the red dirt/constant heat will kill the paint. There are also no decent roads up here so expect paint chips/dents/etc.

Simple response is buy a 4wd for up here, leave the skyline at home.

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
