Hi all,

Thought I would finally introduce myself. I recently picked up a 1999 Stagea RS4s, but have been lurking on the forums for a while now, getting tips on what to look for when buying a stagea, mod upgrades etc etc so a big thank you to all the contributors of the forums here. You do an awesome job!

A little bit about me, I have a wife and a 1 year old son, and have another baby due next month....hence the need for the stag. I have actually been registered for some time now on these forums, but used to be on nissansilvia as I had a 180sx about 4 years ago. I sold the 180 so I could do the grown-up things like buy a house, get married, have kids etc.

Chat to you all soon

Matt

Welcome Matt - and I say a little prayer that your wife & new bub will be just fine > Amen

I used to own a Volvo 245GL back in '83 when we had 2x young 'uns. Not as sophisticated as the Stag > just a mountain on wheels lol

Welcome to SAU & we hope you're a better family man because of some of us here... hehe...

    • 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
