Looks Tasty Anfanee. :)

Today I received in the mail...

An Old School Metal Datsun badge that may or may not end up on the SkyWagon and a Spare R31 Auto ECU which may or may not fix the intermittent Fuel Pump Priming issue... Both off Ebay, both very cheap.

I cut up, painted and fitted a piece of PVC pipe to straighten out my air intake.

Played multimeter games with the TPS to try to fix an acceleration flatspot.

Disassembled and cleaned my spare AAC valve and installed it, had to bleed the air out of the cooling system, fiddled with the TPS some more and checked timing again. (still needs more TPS fiddling) :/

Nice straight intake (removed the weirdass bends)

Now with ^^^ GT badge in grill.

Clean vs Dirty AAC valve.

im yet to use dads tools, im sure he would do the same... I don't get why he spend so much on his tool and tool box, he owns a brand new fiestia ST and doesn't work on it, tho he did mention something about restoring a 1955 f100.

I must admit. If my son talked to me like that I wouldn't just lock my tools up. I'd be packing his bags for him and kicking him to the curb :P haha

I feel your pain about a new job. Hard to find decent work with a decent team. Goodluck with the car - hopefully it can come to the next cruise.

So the next question....

Do i order new seat covers with the money from the bike? :woot:

these ones...

nengun-4323-06-nismo-skyline_gtr_r32_sea

Are they leather seat covers? Or an actual leather seat? They look nice regardless.

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂

      Cas issue

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.

      Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.

      Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
