Just give Todd over at Japlink Motors a call to help you out. I recently dealt with him for a personal import and the service was excellent. They know their stuff, their eesponsive and will help you get things right.

Highly suspect for your first ever post on the forum to be plugging one particular company Todd... Uh.....I mean Hipogtr. Tell us a little more about this 'personal import' of yours or is the make and model confidential? It was probably a mail order bride.

Suspend your cynicism, Alkatraz - Hipogtr (presuming it's the same person I think it is) just brought in an R35 with an entire Greddy catalogue on it, and yes Todd (and me too, by association...)helped him with it.

Thanks for the post, Kristian. Also appreciate all the work that you did to help with the import - great job and highly recommended for anyone wanting some support importing!

Alkatraz, I'll be happy to post photos in due course. Its a Stage 0 R35 at this point - the way I would have like it to arrive from Nissan. :)

I see a few members do not know me well.

Yes I help a lot of members when I can and a few are into me for engine builds, major repairs (pay as you go jobs - things you do for friends)

I will help anyone until they burn me.

The R35 refered to in this thread is the best I have ever had the privilege to see let alone work on and yes I have been to AutoSalon Japan.

If you get a chance to see his car you will probably agree, as the owner is like the rest of us - he loves his skylines.

If he every sold the car I would be at the head of the line to buy her.

      R33 persistent issues. P/steering and lag/misfire

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.

      @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.

      R33 persistent issues. P/steering and lag/misfire

      By MissMintyR33 · Posted

      Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.

      One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
