Wtb: A Few Things For My New (and First) Skyline

Hey everyone,

I was hoping someone could help me find a coil pack cover for an RB25DET locally. I know there are few available in the for sale section/ebay, but I was hoping to get one on my car ASAP, specifically before it rains again. My story is that I bought the car 2 weeks ago and everything has been fine, but it started misfiring quite badly earlier this week. I worked out that the problem was water had pooled up quite a lot in two of the park plug valleys, seemingly enough to create a short circuit, in turn causing the misfire along with corroding the plugs. The water came from the heavy rain the car was out in all last weekend I assume, with the problem being contributed too by the state of my current coil cover: Its was cut in two pieces (I guess so you can get it of easier), the rubber seals have had it and it was missing a few bolts for good measure. Anyways, if anyone know where I can get an OEM one soon, that'd be great, or even one of the unnecessary glamour aftermarket ones if the price is reasonable.

Also, I was looking to get an R34 SMIC for my R33. I was hoping someone who has put a FMIC into their R34 GTT has one sitting around I could pick up cheap, if so, let me know. Also, before anyone lines up a post saying "just get a FMIC" or mentions something along the lines of "volumetric cross flow rate vs intake temperature" or alludes to the susseptability of a SMIC to "heatsink", just go easy :blush: . Furthermore, do you think this is the kind of mod that I should be looking to do myself, or is there someone who I could take it to in Fyswick (where I work) who would do it during the day whilst I'm at work so I don't have to make any travel arrangements?

lol yeah, I've got the impression that the vast, vast majority of R33's have a coil cover in much better nick than the one I've got. Also, I've seen you the ads for your car, The interior/exterior looks in super condition, I'd be too scared to touch it.

why get a34 smic? the volumetric cross flow rate vs intake temperature is nowhere near a fmic and the smic will act as a heatsink. you should just get a fmic.

lolz i contribute nothing.

Don't think you will find anyone with a 34 SMIC lying around as it is typically so easy to sell them as an upgrade. Hopefully I'm proven wrong.

lol I still have mine sitting in the workshop at home... make an offer.

      My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.

      Automatic Power Button Light Flashing

      Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).

      Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers

      Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
