I tried it but it didn't really do anything as the lean popping is mainly when holding about 2k+rpm on idle. Will it count if I get someone in the car to hold rpm while I fill it? Pics on my phone of the pipe on the car, will upload tonight when I finish work, can't upload pictures from the phone.

In regards to my fuel setup though everything is brand new except lines and regulator. Nismo injectors, Bosch pump, ryco filter..

I think its because of your pringles designed intake pipe you're popping, as we all know with pringles, 'once u pop, u cant stop'! On a lighter note, i know how frustrating ur problem is, hope u find a solution soon, sounds like an air related issue, did u get jez to look it up in the wknd?

The point he is getting at is the fuel being cold, as long as you don't leave it idling for 10 hours after filling it it will answer his question.

Shall send you a pm shortly. Just got home and it decided to lean pop on idle now and constantly too. I might have to give that test another go. But its strange, on hotter days I've given the car harder times and idle is fine...

I tried PMing them again. Realized they are close to 2MB each. Got my computer now so lets do it from here! Pictures are pretty rough, I'll be pulling it all apart tomorrow for better pics of the pipe out of the car.

Also just fitted a new fuel filter, just incase.

Can't edit the above post anymore but here are pictures of the intake pipe OFF the car. You can see the outside and the inside of the pipe. My new design pipe has another bend just at the turbo with a 2 - 3" leg which will be the mounting point for my return and breather lines. It will have 2 maybe 3 bends in it.

The black shit is that silka sikka or what ever its called, that black glue shit. We put it over the weld bead just incase there was an air pocket somewhere.You can also see that the intake pipe is not exactly 3" on the bend. We sliced out a moon piece then bent the pipe shit and welded it up.

Hey sarge. Those welds are hectic. Ill subby all my fab work to you from now on. Make sure u save those pringles cans for me lol.

Anthony has a good point. The afm element position is fairly important.

The afm element orientation isn't an issue if the AFM is standard.

      Did tie rods. Steering now not "springing" back.

      Good to hear. Hopefully you're happy enough not to notice when driving and just enjoy yourself.

      I mean, most of us just love cars. Doesnt necessarily have to be a skyline.

      Did you pick up a manual cluster to remove the position indicator?  (Pretty sure the 34 has the gear position in the cluster, but it's been a while)

      Here is a recipe. Sonic blocks till you get one that has a good enough bore. Get a torque plate and block brace, use your choice of fasteners (arp ect) bolt the thing together empty, half fill it and let it cure. Release it when it has, go to a REPUTABLE RB Builder and get the thing line bored/honed and cylinder honed to size, then wash. Once its all clean and dandy, wash and blow it out again. Then again.  Assemble said engine to your desired clearances with oil control mods, gasket to suit desired CR/Squish ect. Attach your extended sump with proper trap door oil baffles and head drain plumbed to sump with a SUMP BREATHER SYSTEM. Build your front diff with a decent LSD, rebuild your transfer case with a few extra plates, more than likely replace your tailshaft centre bearing and tighten up the rear diff. Tune to minimise excessive midrange cylinder pressure (timing unless you like to split bores and rebuild engines) Enjoy your engine, but hate the fact you are now destroying engine mounts, gearboxes, gearbox mounts, diff output flanges and driveshafts, diff mounts, tailshafts and front CV's.   Disclaimer.... Ive never done any of the aforementioned stuff.......

      440s will support well over 400HP on petrol, which is a decent place to be for an RB20. 230+rwkW. Will be a safer bet for idle/low load. 550s would be nice for the extra headroom. I've made the same decision with mine (Neo25). 1000s are probably too big for the Nistuned ECU, so I have some smaller ones.
