I drive to and from fyswick monday to friday at 0700 and home at about 5 ish I wave to every skyline i see and i dont get any respons i guess people do not know what a DR30 rsx looks like I now have a black bonnet and a black rear wing the rest of the car is white and I usually drive on the speed limit so if your going slow its probably me in front not that the old girl is slow it is the fact there is no traction in the first three gears. so what color is your skyline

Thats a nice smooth curve Gus, it must have pretty linear delivery.

Looks like its running a bit rich at high revs (safer than running lean though) and by the looks of the top of the curve you might need to re-gap your spark plugs down to .8mm cos it looks like its blowing out the spark at peak power.

only mods are exhaust, pod, and ed said it was running around 10 psi (no bleed valve )

the blue line was first...running rich as fark....the second was with a new o2 sensor...runs heaps better now. was ridiculous how rich it was running down low.

only problem was trying to find a new ecu now to give it a tune...ed told me about this nistune thing but i duno...dont want something only 1 tuner can do...would much rather a power fc...but ha trying to find one of them.

unjfortunately the exhaust temp light still comes when its hot on which is annoying...need to take it back to ed and see if its something else thats faulty. makes it non fun to drive.

    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
