well oil pump has been installed and running.

BUT......

i drove the car to get petrol last night, ran smooth.

drove it to tuners perfect.

waited for tuner to arrive, started it to move it onto dyno, no oil pressure.

dash gauge showing 0, red light on, defi gauge showing 0.

cracked the oil feed line off the turbo to see if it was dodgy gauges, no oil pressure.

like WTF!!!

any tips or ideas?

nice power figure. and that torque curve is awesome

btw how good is craigs work. that guy is seriously amazing the way he can just look at something, figure everything out in his head and just build something that'll fit perfect first time

to be honest we dont know..

pulled the pump back off, pulled the gears out and they were fine, cleaned the PRV and that was fine.

pulled checked the oil filter and all the oil cooler lines and they were fine

removed the oil cooler and used the standard position oil filter no change

chucked some compressed air up the oil galleries whent he sump was off and seemed to push a bit of oil out the pickup.

cleaned the sump, pickup and put it back together and its fine?? lol

Nice power :) I saw you mentioned lack of low end when you posted in the dyno results thread, Nistune don't support VCT right? Coming up with something to get around that (or just upgrading to a G4 Link/some other good aftermarket ECU) should get you bringing boost in a few hundred rpm quicker and making a good amount more torque for the same boost level if you haven't got it engaging already.

ahhhhh thats why when im comparing its different hahaha.. vct boys..

yeh im going to buy a nos rpm switch.

but also going to play around with preload settings on the wastegate once i have fitted the stiffer spring..

had a track day at mallala monday 11/4/11

engine was amazing, abit laggy but im working on that with vct.

595ss dont do any good for track so they will be ditched for some semi slicks.

the guards are gonna get molested more to fit some 245/40/18 semis

getting some rear camber arms to bring the camber to closer to 0

my r34gtt brakes wont seem to bleed properly so all day i had very soft and low pedal. any ideas?

today i started to strip the body to get ready for respray. and to fix all the dents and to get my guards flared more.

and pics of the car today

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
