Geoff - what did you do re your turb ? Was it the seal ??

Fatz / Maj / Anyone - If I bring an extra set of tyres only, is there a place nearby that I can get them changed on to my other set of rims (currently have good semi slicks on them)

Nah it was just the hose connecting my fmic piping with the crossover pipe. Must have a pinhole leak right where a little bit of oil collects so it was squirting out into the engine bay.

Bought some (expensive!!) silicon hose but it did BAD things to the sound of my intake for some reason (sounded sick, and my compressor surge noises were completely gone!) so I put the rubber one back on and really reefed the hoseclamps down. Hasn't reappeared yet... gonna try the silicon again when i can be bothered but if it ain't broke..... :(

Any nothern beaches people (mal?) - leave 6:30/7 from forestway shops? (the back carpark near the RTA)

post in the thread if you're meeting at forestway, or I'll just go straight to oran park :D

Mark has some special wheels for me - things will get interesting when I bolt them on!! :)

Shite - I should go to bed hey......

Geoff - I'll be at Forest way at 6:30 - I'll wiat till 7:00 for ya - I'll be the one still half pissed and sleeping - so wake me up when you se my car OK - Otherwise I'll see you ar Oran ! :D

    • 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.
