Pretty sure thats my 'odd one out' (my only half decent tyre)

Ecsta SPT KU31...does a good job. Just have to replace the other 3 cheap Fullrun compliance tyres lol

please tell me you're not running the odd tyre on the front passenger wheel on a GTR.

Front driver side. Given that one of the tyres I HAD pretty much popped just before i hit eastlink a few months ago...i kinda had to replace the piece of shit. make matters worse the stupid japanese battery then died and i had to pay almost 200 for the only battery that would fit...and a further 10 to change the terminals to fit... it ended up being almost 500 on just a tyre and a battery in the week where i didnt get paid. so...bite me for having to do what i had to to get the car going again rather than replacing all four :(:P

i just got quoted $300 for an optima one (has like gel inside istead of water and gives heaps of cca)

its sort of longer and flatter rather than taller. Its called a FullRiver? meant to be really good for running excessive car audio and shit. was about 180. needed something that could fit in the battery cavity...especially given we had no tools at all to take the rear strut brace off...

lol way to overreact. as long as it's not the passenger one, it's where the anti slip sensor is most sensitive and usually something like a good tyre on that compared to three shagged tyres will make your GTR constantly think you're doing epic skids.

part of the reason we opted to have it towed rather than try the epically shit spare they give you. for one its based off of the 17" stockies, the car is currently running 18x9.5...so the spare was smaller. didnt wanna chance it. had total cover with RACV at the time as well, luckily :( free towing ftw!

What's happening tonight?

Is it just me... or does it seem like everyone drives like a dickhead on fridays? I had 2 commodores and a 7 series beamer muck around (on the freeway no less) while I was driving >.<

shan i will hit you up when i need tyres, it seems because my car had been sitting for probably about a year + not doing anything in japan there is some small cracks in the tyres.. traction tyres suggested to get it replaced ASAP but kinda thinking they just want me to spend more money there.. as they are really only small cracks I might take some pics.

Anyways cheers all for the info :mad:

EDIT:

BC COILOVERS FTMFW, sooo much less bumpy then my brutal teins were, they feel sooo much better for a daily driver and no knock ftw.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      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

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
