Hi all,

Just thought I would introduce myself as I am new to this site, and I am new to owning a skyline too.

I just got my new ride. Its a R33 GT-R vspec and I love it.

I know nothing about slylines as anyone wouldknow from my last car, was so different.

So I will prolly be nosing around trying to learn stuff.

Might see some of you around ey.

Leah :flower:

YAY.. Hey Leah. Your still a bitch for getting a GTR. But it's ok. I'll forgive you.

You should come along to our many thursday night cruises and meet some of the boys. And also our Massive Skyline Cruise that's happening on the 17th April. You can join the many other new GTR owners around this community :D

I'll be watching this thread boys, so don't get too desperate!

Girls only group!?@#

OMG *hits head* Can you imagine how the parking arrangements would be.. and how ****ed up the cars would be?!@

I'll be the first to admit that females can not drive but there are exceptions. (like me :D ) but oh dear god. I shudder at the thought.

    • Old Son, did you re-use the Holden ABS in the new shell or try a different module?
    • Yeah, nah. I had the actuator rod off it today. The arm will not move at all. Neither out, nor in. Yeah, you'd think so, but I've been thinking about that. Even when the actuator rod fell all the way off at the beginning of this saga, it would build more boost and faster in lower gears than it would in higher gears, and you'd think that that was the opposite of what should happen. But I strongly suspect that there is a thing with the gearing getting the revs to rise faster, that there must be some transient effect with the gas flow rate rising quickly, that you don't get with the more steady state case of the higher gears. Keep in mind - the gate is not shut in either of my weirdnesses. So things are not "normal". We normally think about a turbo spooling up (below the wastegate target) with the gate shut. I have all sorts of mental models running now where the gate is a little bit open, and having it stuck open allowing gas out while it should be going through the turbine has all sorts of weird effects (in these mental models). I'm thinking in the higher gears, the ex mani pressure builds to the point where enough gases spill out the wastegate to just prevent the pressure rising much more at all, or just creeping up, all the whole the revs are increasing and getting closer to the point where a gear shift becomes necessary.
    • Is it possibly wastegate actuator itself is sticking, or even the rod to flapper? Otherwise I reckon things are getting a bit rusty/worn   Also odd it won't boost in 3rd to 5th, but will in 1st, I'd expect the other way around with it slightly open as there's more time on your way to redline for it to spin up
    • Does anyone know ow what these two plugs are for and if they should be unplugged? Just put the dash back together and can't remember if these were plugged in before or unplugged! (Blue and white plugs) 🤦🏽‍♂️
    • Did some FASTing ...got the impression that the actual part# was a moot point ; seems all of these hardlines for coolant are discontinued/NLA... like, I take it you're after the hardline that bolts onto to the manifold...that's NLA according to amayama & nengun .... ...just to clear up some confusion, they typically mounted the AAC valve to the intake manifold somewhere near a coolant passage, so the body of the valve heats up & holds it open when engine's up to temp - no coolant flows through the valve, it's a mechanical, thermal connection.
