Hi guys,

Looking at swapping my 5.0L VT Calais.

-160,000kms

-White

-Tan interior

-Lowered on new KYB shocks and lowered springs

-Nolathane bushes

-Pacemaker extractors & full system

-20% tint (Very dark)

-LPG fitted about 6 months ago (with larger than standard converter = more performance and still under warranty)

-Extended platinum warranty (approx $1400 worth - 4.5 years remaining!!)

-Huge service just performed including: New water pump, every radiator / heater hose, heater tap, thermostat, thermostat housing, all fan / alt / AC belts, coolant, Oil, oil filter, air filter, leads, dissy cap, rotor button, platinum plugs etc etc etc. (Big dollars)

The car is pretty well immaculate, will not find a cleaner VT Calais 5.0L out there. - I know, as I looked around for months before i bought this one.

Dont be put off by it been V8 either - It cost approx $40 to fill (70L useable litres @ approx 55-58c P/L). It gets about 350kms round town, and about 450-480kms on the highway.

I dont have any pics at the moment, just google a white VT Calais, add dark tint and lower it. thats how it looks lol.

Looking for a fairly stock turbo manual skyline. (exhaust, front mount etc etc ok, but not interested in something that will never get off defect if it gets done)

Or a nice Stagea.

Hi, sorry I cant PM.

How much cash do you feel your car is worth?

I have a 1995 R33 manual with 126K on the clock.

mods include: FMIC, stainless steel turbo back exhaust, adjustable swaybars/caster, leather look interior, 17inch rays nismo LMGT1 wheels.

I may consider a trade with cash my way.

Cheers

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
