Definetly Ben. Have some more info on the skyline situation too (as posted by my wanted to buy post), he thinks I may have a collector gasket issue... It will explain the rich under boost and slightly lean on vacuum.

No one unfortunately has a metal gasket. John can't even order one as he's tried many VIN's and part numbers, all turn up being rubber gaskets.....

Ouch ... not good ... I had a close call this morning have a really shocking wheel alignment at the moment have excessive toe out on both the front wheels and it is causing major understeer at the moment and in this wet weather it allmost caused me to slide into a gutter near the airport on the way to work bloody scary feeling trying to steer around a corner and the car just keeps going straight

Rossco was that you that I saw driving out of Autotech this afternoon?? That was our S3, I was there dropping off my clutch :)

Sorry to interupt, but S3 as in Audi? I love Audis...there's an RS6 with my name on it if Lotto comes in!!

Yeah hubby drives a new Limited edition S3 with the recaro seats and stuff. Although I stole it on Friday and got in trouble for spinning the wheels in the wet :)

Nice! Props to a lady who enjoys sinking the right slipper into the firewall!!

    • 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.
    • Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
