5000k for me

i drive my LM every day have had it a year and put 20000k on it. had problems a few months back with oil leaks from dry cam and cam cover seals and front seal failing, taking out the timing belt at the same time because it sat in a garage for so long.

usually every 5000k's.

i have a few cars to look after tho, so sometimes it can be either more or less, i forget if i dont put it in my book

the wrx likes it every 3000k's. heavily modified, and shitty boxer engine...stinks of fuel.

the skyline likes it every 5000k's. engine runs like a dream.

the pulsar could probably go for 20,000k's before it needed an oil change (it doesn't tho..). its an absolute gem of a car. bullet proof!

the rodeo likes it every 5000k's. its a dirty f**k of an engine.

"I never do! I just let it all happen like - C'est la vie - and if there's smoke or a rattle, I just ask Daddy for a new one!"

That's what one blonde g/f said to me...

Needless to say, she only lasted two dates;

#1 for the excites

#2 for the "You know what? I think you deserve someone much better than I ...." speech.

i change everything on all my cars differently!

my r34 gtt was done every 5000kms but hasnt been touched fir over a year now so gonna do a major on it as soon as i have some time as it is for sale atm!!

my jeep is a company car (and i work at jeep) so maintenance is done as per service guidelines say every 12000kms

my bmw 320d is done as per the handbook also every 15000 my memory!!

ive only had my GTR for 5 months so far! i made the dealer in nsw i bought it from do a service before shipping it to me in melb! ive done only 2500kms but im doing a major for it this week with new filters, fluids plugs etc also doing gates timing belt kit, water pump etc!! (60,000 km on clock) i just dont want it to break before rb30 goes in :)

    • Check the injectors flow evenly, and are actually flowing what you and the ECU think they should be flowing. If it's starting up on starter fluid, you have a fuel issue. Is it possible under cranking your fuel pump is turning off?   The harness you replaced, is that the whole engine harness? Do yourself a test, and drop the old harness on and plug it into the Z32 ECU. It's possible they've wired things different. From memory S1 to S2 is different in RB25 and you may have a wrong loom
    • I haven’t pulled the injectors to watch them spray yet but they are clicking from the cas and all of the spark plugs are wet with fuel. I’ve thought the cylinders were being flooded from the beginning and was hoping fuel pressure would fix it. Tonight I am going to pull the rail and watch the injectors spray. Don’t know how to test/diagnose if the plugs are firing in correct sequence but that should be a timing thing and as far as timing goes my car still has the half moon for the cas can only install it 1 way. And my mechanical timing is 100% correct I posted photos above. Confirmed with the balancer on and off. 
    • I checked spark on all cylinders and they all visually have spark with the plug pulled and grounded, but plug 1 is the only one that fouled. This was a running swap that blew up and was rebuilt by a machine shop, put a new wiring specialties harness and did all gaskets, studs, and bolts while it was out.  compression is 135-150 across all cylinders. Aside from that from my understanding with the z32 ecu and maf the car should start regardless. The wiring for TPS and the dual 02 sensor/ dual knock sensor stuff shouldn’t actually stop the car from starting or even running well, (just slightly rich)  they just give fault codes. Car supposedly is supposed to start as long as you have z32 afm and ecu with the nistune base map and that’s info coming from a well known and trusted tuner who does a lot with SR/RB (Rsenthalpy). After more trouble shooting today where I’m at right now is that the cas is sending signal to the injectors they click while spinning the rotor, Fuel pressure is now set at 43psi, all cylinders have good compression and all of the plugs looked great (just wet with fuel) except for cylinder 1 which was very black (cylinder 1 has 150psi compression). all of the coils generate spark if pulled out and grounded out on the head. On the fuel pump car just pops into the exhaust. On starting fluid car will fire off. Hard to tell if all cylinders are firing off but definitley a couple. sounds like all of them but it’s only for 3-5 seconds hard to tell. 
    • Final update!!! Got the front bar fitted and sprayed and all sorted now. My cutouts worked great and the indicators aren’t just falling off. 😂  
    • Is this a brand new LSD? if so, have you followed any break/bed in procedure for it? Usually involves heaps of figure 8 patterns, a fluid flush.
