Bit of a long story but my car has gone from the workshop to a tuner who has installed the G4 Link and is going to tune it tomorrow. He is a top tuner and has built a seven second R32 GTR

but he was complaining that he was having to take his M35 Stagea to NZ's most famous GTR tuner because he has the software to crack the ecu but its all in Japanese. I will try to find out more and keep you informed but it could be good news for Kiwi V35 and M35 owners. Soichi used to work for Nissan and travels back to Japan regularly so I don't know how he came by the software and whether he will onsell it (maybe to someone like Toshi). Will let you know.

Good weekend for the Stag...

New front rotors arrived, courtesy of my new friends at DBA. DBA 4000 series rotors with the new Clubspec T3 slotting:

Not going in until the BCs arrive, probably just before the SA cruise :thumbsup:

And no more pirate spec, got one of my new spot lights in:

Thanks to Simon Michelmore for giving me a hand working out the mounts for it. Ended up clearing all the broken glass out, and drilling into the old plastic mount to screw into the standard Narva bolt holes. Worked ok, not ideal. You can also see in the above photo that there's a fair gap around the light, so now I'm thinking maybe a set of squid rings to fill the gap?

Has transformed the front end:

Before I do the other one, I might move the light forward slightly so I can angle it up a bit. Also have to find a better spot to mount the HID ballasts.

Anyone happen to have a broken fog light I could grab? I need to break the light to make my mounting setup work, and rather work with an already broken one if possible?

Oh, and I stuffed up and turned the car to 'ON' (without firing) with the AFM disconnected... so guess who has to remove the check engine light this week? >_<

Why do you have to remove the check light? Can't you just reset the ecu by disconnecting the battery?

Well I've seen the complicated procedure on here, but to be honest last time disconnecting the battery worked. Won't be too hard either way, plenty of threads on here.

Fair enough then, I thought it was either full reset, or just wait for the ECU to see the AFM enough time to reset itself.:blush:

Really?

If its going to reset itself i cbf playing with it!

Not a problem with the help....I've run out of things to do on my car and yours is the closest to me! :P

On other news I got my head pretty much around your HKS Kit....hopefully I will get a good nights sleep tonight now.

I have half a HKS turbo kit here, it looks like my V band setup has much better flow, how do they expect the wastegate gasses to flow through that u turn on the adapter mate?

I got my Brembos on, the caliper had about 10mm of clearance from the 17's. It looks great with the braided lines but these are a pain to bleed, I drove down some corrugated dirt roads to try and get all the air bubbles to the top and re-bled but they still feel spongy. Any ideas?

Got a bit done today; New Plugs fitted, new passengers side rocker cover gasket, and an oil & fiter change. A little oil in the rear plug recesses on the passengers side; but not too bad.

Also slipped some hardened washers under the Plenum bolts, as the Cap Heads had abraded the alloy a little.

Recieved my pack of 8mm rivet clips from Hong Kong and replaced a bunch of cracked trim clips.

Time to look at my Brake Upgrade again I think...

hey this sounds familiar....:whistling:

We bled mine twice right? Or was it 3 times?

I just drove em for a while and they firmed up...

Too familiar, the rears were fine but the fronts were re- kitted, as such they were empty. I think the pistons hold a little air around them perhaps? I didn't let the master cylinder empty at any point...

When I got my Stagea, the aftermarket front bumper was cracked badly and generally in poor condition. Over the weekend finally finished painting up a stock RS4 front bumper and slapped it on this evening. Didn't make it glossy enough, but still much better than the cracked bumper.

you have to mod your lights at the back of them abit and also cut the plugs of and join the wires to the led itself but its very easy.i got them of ebay http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/160607562766?ssPageName=STRK:MEWNX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1439.l2649

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      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.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      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

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By MBS206 · Posted

      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.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By Duncan · Posted

      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

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By 25zenki · Posted

      Harness is for a s1 Rb25det, and it is engine and lower harness.  the old harness had broken off plugs and was in very rough condition/exposed wires and splices etc. it is not able to be put back on the car, I could visually inspect to see if they had rewired any pins on the ecu plug. The fuel pump definitly isn’t turning off it’s an external pump and very loud you can hear it. Will look at the other harness tonight, am also going to pull the fuel rail and watch the injectors spray, will update here with what I find. Pretty sure at this point it has to be something to do with injectors because car will fire up on starting fluid and cas is clicking the Injectors. Fuel pressure is steady 43psi
