Never do simple jobs when you know you will need the vehicle. How many times I have done a 5 min job b4 camping or a big trip and it turns to shit.

+1 to this haha.

I started last Tuesday with thinking I would fix my loose front bar.

Still havent got the car back on the road because I pulled it off then decided to clean the intercooler.

Then while I was at it decided to put the new SS1 in.

Its been nearly a week off the road now haha

it is why I bought a $450 3 cylinder 1L charade for a shitbox A-B car that never breaks down when my skyline is off the road.

Best part about that is 3 cylinder motors have the same exhasut harmonics as a 60 deg V12

go record some tunnel runs!!!

Kind of how a civic with a blown head gasket on cylinder 3 has the same harmonics as an EJ20?

Sounds awesome, till you realise its not. lol.

Steven,

Scooter for the Win. My skyline has been off the road for over 6 months. So for the past 6 months I Have been sharing a car with the wife, until this month when my work hours got changed.

Went and purchased a brand new Adly 50cc scooter for 2k. My 14.4KM journey to work is now extremely fun, fuel costs have gone down from $75pw to $20pw(Including oil) and biggest thing, parking has gone from $75pw to nothing.

Only thing I have yet to figure out is how to have my 2 morning drive smokes when on the scooter.

    • Working through possible solutions of converting my mechanical speedo.    Anyone know what type of speedo sensor the factory r34 gtr getrag has ? what the output is ? I assume its not a VSS and more a voltage like earlier speedo sensors ? Can an ECU read it ?  
    • roof rail delete used to be a thing, they were made locally for a while too
    • I can get more photos of it here soon and I plan to make a thread detailing the process. I received the car this way and it sorely needs refinishing. That is probably the most appealing photo of it. Up close it is fading, cracked, and needs to be re-glued. Depending on their condition I'm on the fence between refinishing or making a new set.  Another angle hiding the pimples and razor pumps  
    • According to this thread the RS4V with build plate RC40 comes with the R200 diff @ 4.083 ratio as well (mine has said RC40 denotation). We may need to check if the axle stubs are the same pattern as well. The auto subframes have longer axles. However I think yours being a later Series 2 as well, we should have the same bolt pattern for the diff stubs. Unless your upgraded rear also has upgraded axles. Either way, I would not be opposed to pulling the covers to check so I can inspect that  fancy rear core  Also I don't have HICAS. I don't believe that should change things but I hope the people here with heaps more experience than me can correct me if I'm wrong   Let me know if you want to attempt to make this work and I can get some pictures of mine from under the car. 
    • It's not that straightforward. For example I have had this code because my ignitor/power transistor wires were unplugged. It knows something is wrong but has no idea what it means. If you want to actually diagnose this I recommend following the service manual flowchart for code 21. Ohm out the harness, coilpacks, inspect the ECU, etc. And again, it's entirely possible for there to be no problem at all but if you're running a different coilpack it'll trigger the code because it doesn't like what it sees.
