I use to own the white skyline with gold wheels and carbon bonnent that is now in launny. I'd like the see the dyno sheet for it. It made 242kw at wheels with only 12psi so it could make close to 300 with more boost. The car doesn't get the power to the ground though.

Was bored tonight after a few drinks and did some searching for my car and its previous owners.

Its funny how way back then 300kw was a big deal. lol

For everyone that new this car and the old 25 way back then.. When it finally did die after lots of abuse we pulled the engine down to check it out.

With the setup I bought it with and running haltech E11v2 it made 300rwkw @ 17psi. It stayed like that for a while then the same engine with twin T3/T4 turbos and 1000cc injectors made 399rwkw and was very very laggy. lol

Anyway, the engine stripped down we found it had Tomei pistons, Tomei 256 inlet and 264 Exhaust cams, Tomei springs, metal headgasket and everything else was stock.

So the poor old 25 put up a good fight before it burnt no.6 piston and lost compression. It still drove with a slight gurgle at idle and still smoked the tyres in 3rd gear.

Its had a few big changes since back then, Now has a built 26/30, Garrett T51r, soon to have 1600cc injectors, 175hp nos kit and C4 auto. Will be tuned in a few weeks once I get it all sorted and back together again

Ha ha ha ha...

I remember going for a lash in it with Andrew (the origional owner) the day it rolled off the boat. It pushed 240 odd rwkw later that week. It was fast back then.... especially compared to my r31 gts-x coupe!!!

Ahh.. the good old days.

We allways wondered what was under that head....

Yeah funny how times change, I was with Matt when he first took you and you girl friend for a ride in it from the silver dome I remember the look on your face, you loved it as did every one that went for a ride in it at the time, what stood out was the sound of it, the screamer pipe was like nothing else any one had ever heard before and it was dyno’d in Melbourne at Race Pace- Ice with old owner Andrew or the importer did? and now is Matts Mechanic for his GTR and only found out as he was telling him about his old cars lol small world

yeah he still got the GTR, its nearly been 2 years since it was last running lol got a full cage put in it about a year ago, and only just took it to Kuzzie’s a couple of weeks ago to have it put back together just chasing up a couple little parts, it's got a whole new motor and turbo’s and new suspension and 8 pot APracing brakes. Matts hoping to take it to Melbourne in a few weeks to Race Pace to have it tuned and other new bits put on. He still keen to take it up the drags and stuff but it’s now built for tarmac rally's and has entered in Targa Wrest Point and the Rookie Targa next year, I’m going to be navigating for Matt its gunna be awesome fun.

I can’t wait to see your old best at the drags again and in the burn out comp, it will be great to see a import with big power at the drags!

      Squeaking clutch/throw out bearing

      By patrickxdf12 · Posted

      Hello!  i just finished manual swaping my r34 skyline with a r33 rb20de box(RB71C)box  When the car is running it squeaks crazy loud and it was smoking from the gearbox area. The gearbox is fine it was tested. The clutch slave cylinder seems like it doesn't fully releases the clutch. I want to ask if this noise is from the throw out bearing or could it be the clutch assembly or disk att.xFliq87Gzw6kImKBVqDebXkj0fBqymk0JaYeP3_3SlM.mp4

      S15 Spec R

      By RP1421 · Posted

      A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always!

      R33 Fuel Pump & Brakes after alarm swap

      By Jarsky · Posted

      Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
