having worked for engineers in the past,what i have learned is that you would have to change the engine back....emissions data that was gathered for the engine in question is or at least at the time i was in the know was irrelevent when the engine had been put into another vehicle because of the weight diffrence of the 2 vehicles...also diffrent fuel tanks(evaporative systems) in the two vehicles would alter the emissions data....if the car is tuned right you could send it to ford and get a full shed test and if it passes youd be laughing...but i think it was 2500-3000 when i sent mine there about a year or so ago...this info may be incorrect on todays standards but megalla is right in saying check with an engineer

hmmm where can me or narkeh get in touch with an Engineer? (I think Dave would like to know as well) Dotars? might get onto em on tuesday.

Just rang J-spec, they said that since the engine was a Nissan RB Variant, and the car is a Nissan which came equiped with RB engines (which means things like the exhaust are still in the same position etc, and there are no major modifications to the functioning of the car), they don't forsee any problems with getting compliance on the car (which they will handle anyways). In addition they also said that since test data is available for the engine and the car, and that the car is 1988, there shouldn't be any hassles from the engineer.

Also as a side note, I've noticed that the emissions data on my car (found on the bonnet in my car) read Emission data for Nissan R32 GTR (RB26DETT). Found this greatly aamusing since I've got an RB20DE. So does that mean that I could have brought down a GTS with an RB26DETT and still have passed compliance. Mind you my car was the last RB20DE R32 to come into the country under the old compliance scheme according to canberra.

ey nark, as per the discussion before

[edited] for the mechanic report and the 30 images that he took while inspecting the car

inark- edited it for now... will explain later

hahahaha omg thats mad...

nothing major wrong with the body.... luckily i used to be a panel beater :D and that my bro is about to rent out some space for working on cars in the next month or two :D

i might need to order a new front bar (same one)... those stress cracks look a little nasty and will be hard to fix properly. Rear bar looks fine on the outside... what damage is behind it tho is a different story.

by the time im finished with it it will look smick :D

Guest INASNT

So are ya seriously getting this nackers???

If so its gonna be one of the fattest cars in vic, but driveways and and bump in gereral will be a problem coz its damn low.

BTW funky, The link to the report and pics still shows up in the email notification even tho u edited your post.

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
