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.

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

      From Japan and back to Europe, my sh*tbox R34 GTT

      By GoHashiriya · Posted

      Absolute f*cking nightmare. I had to take breaks constantly, and I was always pissed off when I got home. The line split in Italy on day 2 (we drove from the Netherlands), lol. Driving any narrow European town was... well, sh*t.   Appreciate it man. Here, I'll just drop a favourite from the load I took on Saturday.   I'll update here when things happen with the car, the thing is, with stock power and almost everything chassis-wise taken care of, there really are no problems. 268,000kms now and counting.

      Ah! I actually managed to snag a lightly used set.... that aren't so suitable for me right now. They don't work on a GTT without some cutting or creative heat moulding. I thought about reselling them myself cause I didn't want to murder them, but it looks like I'm probably going to attempt to murder them/melt them because I may as well. @GTSBoy @PranK can somebody close this thread?

      I couldn't wait But, the black constant tension hose clamps were too thick and there wasn't enough clearance at the T/B and I couldn't get it to seat properly, so I had use a silver one there I also added some 3" silicone over the alloy bit that goes through to hole on the radiator support as it looked like it was sitting on the edge of the hole in the radiator support, I never noticed a rattle or anything, but there was a witness mark It is basicly done, and I can live with the silver hose clamp at the T/B, I will get a black clamp for the head vent though where it is attached to the bulkhead fitting  It never stops...LOL, only issue now with the shock tower brace is it slightly touches the under bonnet liner now, if I leave it it will either wear some paint off the brace where it touches, or damage the liner, so I removed the liner to see what I have to work with, with the liner removed I have about 20mm of clearance, but sadly the middle part of the underside of the bonnet is only dusted with paint and looks crap, so I cannot have that, but.... as I have a roll of Carbuilders premium under bonnet insulation in the garage laying around that is only 5.5mm thick (we were going to use it on the boys Patrol, but he crashed the front of it a few months and it was written off, hence why he now drives my old Honda Accord Euro), I'll use the OEM liner as a template and get the Carbuilders stuff fitted up to cover that dusted paint up
