Hi!

My name is Rob. As I type, I'm sitting in the front seat of my (new) 2003 350GT. This is my 3rd Skyline, but my first with such fantastic features and the first with such an extensive computer setup. My first Skyline was a 1990, Series 3, 5-speed Silhouette. Brilliant car. After this, I owned a simple 1990 GXE that I performed a few minor mods on.

I have to say, this 350GT of mine is absolutely something else.

I have been lurking for a few days here and have already found so much useful information on mods, parts and the like for any future tuning or installations. Which judging by the information here and the professionals that seem to post, I'll have quite a V35 on my hands. I have already sent an email off to Xanavi Australia concerning the Japanese to English translation of my nav/computer system thanks to the MANY threads involving the issue.

Hope to make some friends in here and I'll try and keep posting.

Thanks for having me!

G'day Rob.

Sounds like we are in the same boat gtting a good V35 deal.

I have had the same thing go on with english translation. Unfortunately the 70th anniversay has the carozerria (altough not all of them) and it cant be translated at all.

So best of luck with yours mate.

    • A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.
    • The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?
    • So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...  
    • the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
