hey all just thought i'd share my new buy.... as i'm a first time skyline owner...i've previously owned a 4wd turbo opel/holden calibra and a 2003 vvti-l celica and had to sell the celica to free up $$$$ because i'm gonna be a father in the near future...so i was looking for a car to shuttle me to and from work but was also abit of fun and bought this old girl 2 weeks ago. just re-registered it weekend passed . and it passed with flying colour's though i thought the guy was blind as it is too low. it's got a full kakimoto racing exhaust, coilover's, hybrid front mount, nismo short shifter, exedy brass button clutch, gfb ibc boost controller, full audiovisual system, nismo cpu chip and splitfire coil pack and is currently running 11lbs got to fix afew thing's visually ( new bonnet, front bar, stock rims, slotted rotters etc) and was just wondering wat kind of power i would be getting from it in its current setup? and here are a few pic's

when i save enough cash i will do an engine swap for something totally different then any1 has done. something bigger and cheaper then an rb26 conversion.

Very nice mate, looks very neat and tidy. Congrats on soon-to-be fatherhood.

I don't think these rims look too bad; but if you're planning on replacing them anyway, you could fork out a little extra and get some nice JDM rims instead of stock rims?

    • bumping this post as im still having dramas, my fuel pick up is sitting on the bottom of the tank, my pump gets a constant 13 volts through a relay, my fuel pressure holds consistently without fluttering or dropping, yet as soon as im near half a tank of fuel my car starts fuel starving and leaning out, it cant be due to g force as it never pulls hard enough before it starts breaking up, any help would be much appreciated 
    • Just a thought, was that car and auto at any point of its life? If so, maybe whoever bridged the inhibitor switch/circuit did a not so good job.
    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
