moar info pls.

does it dip in revs after u back off, idle rough when cold etc ?

Bit hard to explain. It doesn't really change in revs, it just seems to "shake" a bit more at times when it's idling in neutral. No difference id the engine's hot or cold.

I'm going to have it checked out sometime, but I was hoping to get some sort of a diagnosis beforehand.

Then again I've been told that 34s tend to sometimes idle a bit rough by default. Probably also a case of an aging car.

thought id express my inner anger..

shittest situation...

car is unregistered and on double defected

its going to cost $50~ to get a permit , then ive gotta go to a cop shop and get a clearance note , then come up with $200~ for rego , and another god knows how much for regency.

not to mention stock parts.

all unemployed and without a car...

and looking after a parent.

so angry :)

I didnt think you could rego a defect vehicle? Whether you have a clearance or not?

    • ..and forum.r31skylineclub has been down all week....anyone know why?
    • I thought it could be an issue because the standard plate was flexing when stressed. Maybe the original gear set will hold a bit better without flex? Last time on the dyno it made around 670nm at the hubs. Now it have bigger turbo and better intake but have not been on a dyno yet. The car is being used from family trips to drag race events. So the shifts can be a little violent. It is grinding if I shift to fast so was thinking I should overhaul it soon.
    • From the factory on RB26s there's a fitting on the intake manifold collector/"plenum" that provides pre-throttle boost signal. That's how they did it back in the day, I figure it's fine to replicate it.
    • I would be surprised if that wasn't the issue. It's probably telling you, that even if you remove the plastic liner, you may have some other clearance issues that may occur too in some scenarios. IE, tyre to guard. It looks like someone has already rolled the lip, but you may still have issues in the future IE, turning and hitting a bump etc. The fact it changes how bad it makes the noise when you are going backward vs forward is highly indicative that it's the tyre rubbing. They do make a terrible sound, even if you're only pushing a project car that has a liner hanging down on a tyre!   Has the car been lowered? If it has been, what is the measurement from the centre of the wheel hub to the lip of the guard straight up?
