lol I've just spent the last 3 years building a house with a 6 car garage :) It's just a question of leaving some work space. If I remember correctly, you have some brilliant workspace in a couple of different sheds, I'd kill for that :)

sorry I didn't give an actual update. after a short time sitting around this has kicked along again. 50,000 new hoses ordered from a ST lunatic in japan and the old engine is out. need to assemble new engine, replace heaps and get it rolling again.

unfortunately I have a "too many projects" issue. while this is a cool little car it is not first on the list (3rd, actually, behind finishing the ute, and the race car)

update?

nah pretty sure there is no update. It would be nice to having it running again one day.

on the upside but only indirectly related, the ute is finished, it's running nicely. now onto the race car

oh, and yeah, the race car never really got a build thread. it was kind of built before the internet was invented. plus there was very little building, just lots of rebuilding HA HA HA.

here it was the day I picked it up

yeah mate it's the same car, we bought it from Marty. I knew it was rare but didn't realise it was famous until later.

there is one other registered ST I know of up in Brisbane, but it is also off the road for a rebuild at the moment AFAIK.

    • 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
    • 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.
