I know im not the first bloke to run into trouble with an rb26 but I would like to make it known to everyone the lengths Matty T and Luke Terbeeke were prepared to go to for me today.

In such a time of desperation, its overwhelming to know people would not bat an eyelid to help another person. Mr T has proven this on more than one occasion (ala krishy)

Also thanks to pistol for making the day somewhat enjoyable, plenty of laughs and definitely someone you want to be stranded with if you had a choice...

+1 for Matty T. Always ready to help out like the champ he is

-D

the support you guys are showing matty is great.

but i was stuck there too, wheres the love?! tongue.gif

Pfft. I was on a SAU cruise and got left on the side of the road on my own over 50km from home at 2am while all the other Skylines drove straight past me.

NO I HAVEN'T FORGOTTEN.

They probably didn't know you were broken down.

I did a motor 228km from home and drove it home :P

Then continued to drive it for about 6 months. It was fine, just a little harder to start, more sluggish and a bit smokey :P

DO NOT KNOCK THE MIGHTY RB20.

I think I should sell the Stagea while I put myself through University.

It wont feel any love from me during the weekdays, and weekends will probably be the same :(

I'll be catching the train to Uni-SA city east during my course, and feel perhaps its best to have a cheap run around car instead?

Unsure - but advertised for sale, as per sig.

Don't sell it Tangles. Ive thought about it again and again during my uni studies, and I decided f**k it, I'm keeping it. Since then I bought another R32.... and a R31.... lol.

I was going to buy a GTR sometime soon, but I decided I have enough toys at the moment - I wouldnt sell my black R32 to help pay for it, because when I have a real job it will be my daily.

I was the first one behind you, and didnt know why you were pulling over. Otherwise would have come back !

...Im sorry damn it !

PS: Its been 4 years ? get over it :P /joke.

Yeah I dont want to Dion, but if something was to happen (cough *Neil* cough) I dont have the funds to fix anything.

Im on the absolute bones of my arse until this damned house sells; its the worst feeling.

I got myself into this financial mess by being on medication that sent me literally insane, out of work on the pension, and eventually the morgage has climbed back up to max as I havent had the funds the past 3-odd years to fully keep on top of it. Buying the R32 was the stupidest thing Ive ever done I reckon - BUT I simply wasnt thinking straight. Everything I did was aimed at "the fact" Id top myself soon so nothing seemed to matter. ie I didnt care that the ex took money out of the morgage for 2x holidays and a car, etc....

Im much much better since getting off the medication 39days ago; havent had one negative thought so as you may tell thats a Huge turn around, full circle from the lows Ive experienced. My heart says keep it but my head says better off with a 10k falcodore for the next 5yrs. If I can become a Radiologist then in 5-6 yrs I can get back into a morgage and look at getting an R35 perhaps. Im really positive towards whats in store for me but Im not sure if keeping the stagea is the wisest idea.

If the house doesnt sell soon then the stagea or track car simply have to go. Theres no way around it.

    • Order for the 2025 model R35 GT-R were accepted from 3rd March and 26th August the last order rolled off the production line at the Tochigi plant. Concerning the R35 GT-R replacement, current Nissan CEO Ivan Espinosa said "Nothing has been decided about the GT-R at this time, but we are well aware that everyone is waiting. The GT-R will evolve and reappear in the future. Please be patient until that day comes." Nissan has a lot of issues with management and finances so take Espinosa's words with a big grain of salt. From what discussions I've had and read about here in Japan, not a lot of people are confident about Nissan's future, let alone the next GT-R. 
    • Thanks. We getting some parts along too so he will be solving the speed issue like next week so i will let you know what he came up with.   
    • 21 is explicitly the coils detected as the issue. Is it guaranteed the actual issue? No. Just the ECU thinks it is. When you say rattling, describe it better, get an audio clip as best you can if possible.
    • Yea got me coppers. Bad news is I just put them in and the car still has the light and shakes. I also noticed I hear like rattling coming from the exhaust piping right under me. Does 21 also have a possibility of being O2 sensors?   So, coil packs are good, the harness is good, the MAF is working, and obviously the spark plugs just replaced and working.
    • Make sure you drop the GTT base tune back in, and set your injectors again, this will remove anything playing up with it you may have removed. Possibly lean there as it's normally a fast transient going THROUGH atmospheric pressure, and a turbo motor would then quickly go richer as boost builds. The only worry you MIGHT have is ignition timing, as the DE is higher compression than the DET from memory. But again, you're not in boost, so the DE motor will be a lot more forgiving at atmospheric.   Get Murray, Kinkstahs, and Johnny's input on tuning haltechs, those guys have played with tuning enough in the past to be able to help now you're past the trouble shooting stage of the MAP issue
