Hi guys, first time poster, not really a long term reader, not new to the scene or cars not even imports, just never bothered with the forum side of things.

i have been around cars since i was knee high to a grass hopper, grew up with my brothers who were right into the car scene 15-20 years ago (im 25 now so that shows how long i have been in it), not much has honestly changed in the car scene, pretty much the car scene has had the same types of people, the hard core enthusiasts, the geeky car owner and the slappers that come with it.

the only thing to change is the cars and the police problems oh and the places to go, they eliminated most of the meet up spots and things to do like magic mountain, timezone etc.

well any way, i will complete my profile a little later and add pics etc.

current ride is a 92 R32 GTS-T, allegid mods are;

cushion button clutch (with a noisy thrust bearing, may be stuffed might be because its a standard bearing and the clutch is too heavy, who knows) r33 turbo with r33 actuator, gtr looking front mount, split dump pipe, 3inch exhaust, standard cat, some sort of coil over shock suspension, standard bushes everywhere (massive axel tramp going on), clarion tv/dvd player, GFB bleed valve, couple gauges, 6x9's up front, whiteline strut bars, option audio subs and amps, no rear wing (not cool need the third brake light) oh and a ton of knocks and rattles going over bumps, suspecting exhaust mounts and bushes.

future mods;

gps tracker, temp gauge, those alloy things to stop tramp, temp gauge (oem isnt working), decent service, decent boost controller, decent turbo, decent piping, decent exhaust, isotta interior bits, get everything looking good, respray and thats about it.

i hold a degree of automotive engineering, previous cars up around the hundreds but include, 32 gtrs, a walkinshaw, 32's, a purple 33, bmw's, 400bhp vk calais, exa turbo the list goes on.

i know how to use a search button so i avoid asking stupid things but sometimes if you dont know you will never know if you dont ASK!

yeah, i will get some pics up soon, when the weather is a bit better maybe after a detail.

so any way on the weekend i put a bosch 040 fuel pump in, discovered there is actually an apexi turbo timer installed but wth out the controller :/ so need to get another one, maybe, who knows.

i also put in a water temp sender for the dash as ours stopped working but now it just jumps straight up to half way and sits there, the actuator for the heater/air con isnt moving, not sure why.......

purchased a blitz twin sbc for her so i will eventually get around to that, put the tv dvd player in sub etc etc, so the misses has some beats.

i have noticed a lot of knocking rattling clicking noises going on, i will get around to diagnostics eventually, looking at some sub frame bushes and a hicas lock bar.

put a rear wing on just a gtst wing i got for 50 from a fb random, but also have a gtr wing coming so yeah (i think spoilers are gay but i really cannot be effed installing an eye level brake light in the rear window yet.

does anyone else's doors rattle? mine seem as though they are not shut properly or something is loose, also the passenger window needs to be pushed from the window so the window goes under this metal thing?????

who knows but insured for 10k so :woot:

needs a respray i think, so i will wait for summer oh and found a spot of rust :angry:

but if anyone has a front reo going for sale please let me know but only in adelaide and prefer south of cbd

cheers guys

    • 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.
