Do your front lights flash after you try to start it - in which case it could be the stock immobiliser. Otherwise, if it's an automatic, could you have inadvertently disconnected the sensor which tells the car you're in Park (car will not start if it isn't in Park).

Just ideas...

Nope no flashing, yes auto, will have a look to see if i have

thanks

Couldnt see anything had been disconnected all tho i didnt really know what i was looking for, noticed on the dash nothing is showing up where should say d,n,r or what ever, battery looks to have just died the first thing i thought when it didnt start was battery so i hooked jumper leads up and didnt do anything aa guy also tryed to, so with in 20mins my batt has died..dont know if this has somthing to do with it or just coincidence or what

If you have no dash lights then you have most likely blown a fuse. There is a tail light or wiper fuse i think in drivers kick panel so check there.

Have dash lights, was meaning where it has the little letter as to what gear your in is lit up but not showing any letter

It was a standard nissan alarm key, i was suprised it worked with a normal key as the alarm was activated when key was lost, when i unlocked door with normal key it beeped for a bit put it in ignition and worked,.

How did you just use a normal key and not your alarm key?

Your gonna have to get in contact with your alarm maker and get the override code for the alarm and then get another key asap.

if you can tell them how it happened - yes. the dealer fitted immobiliser should have been pulled when compliance was done. the other one (compliance fitted) may be simply hacked into place and quite easily removed.

without the car in front of me I am simply pulling straws.

i dont know if we have same complience thing here in nz, was looking under dash and found a nissan alarm box, but theres a few wires going here and there that definatly dont look factory, guess ill get an auto elec to check it out and hope for the best.

    • I don't understand how this hasn't boiled down to - Upgrade the turbo when you have everything required. ECU, injectors, fuel pump, turbo, etc. Do it all at once.  If you don't have everything required, just enjoy the car as it is and keep saving up your pennies. 
    • Sounds like you've got an interesting adventure ahead here with local support if you have trouble! My guess is that, unboosted, you will be OK with a small upgrade like -9. What will happen is that once the stock ECU sees more airflow than it expects it will add a heap of fuel and pull a heap of timing to be safe because it can't understand how it could get that much air without there being an issue. You will see clouds of black smoke and it won't pull hard through the midrange and top end. So, overall it will be a bit frustrating but should be OK. If you are still nervous set the base timing back 2o through the CAS, but it will be even more sluggish everywhere. As said above through...this is not my guarantee your engine won't be blown into a million pieces, leaving you looking for very hard to find parts A better idea is get a computer with logging ASAP, wire in a wide band O2 sensor and a use remote tuner. I've done multiple cars this way and while it is not as good as a specific tune on a dyno they can get it 90% right. I'd suggest if you can afford an R33 GTR these days you can afford an ECU and tune. And if you can't afford that you sure won't be able to afford the rebuild if it goes bad in the meantime,.  
    • Yeah it would be nice if someone took the time to put that sort of information together, but there are a lot of variations in looms. I think you are making this way hard for yourself if you just want to get it running....sourcing an SR20 with the right wiring will be a billion times easier than matching the RB loom to an S15 chassis. If you do end up going this way, you just need to trace every wire in the loom with a multimeter, 95% of them will go to a location you can confirm at the ECU.....and then post it up for the next person who needs it  
    • Just top it up with water, and keep a general idea of how much you added. It is normal for water to be pushed into and pulled out of the reservoir through the cap, and it should not be more than half full or it will be likely to overflow when hot. Any decent mechanic can do a pressure test of the cooling system to confirm if you have a leak. Keep in mind if it is only leaking a little and when hot it may well evaporate before you see it hit the ground
    • I'd ask the shop what they used and use that. Mixing coolants is sometimes OK, sometimes not, and you have know the details of each coolant to know whether it's a good idea or not.
