Somewhere between the engine and your eyeballs. :P

I'd try checking for loose wires / dodgy earthing. Could be in behind the cluster etc...

Not hard to pull out.

(once you've done it a few times) lol

Fibreglassing repairs today, all done.

The instructions say mix a certain amount so you can get it on before it hardens.

DIY Miks painting skills mean i can mix the whole tin and get it on good, well before it starts to harden. job done. :thumbsup:

I was feeling so good until i remembered... the only way to get fibreglass off is a cold shower. :O:blink:

Strongly recommend not letting your Skylines get so low on fuel that the fuel light comes on.

+1

I don't allow my GTR get below a qtr of a tank.

Listen or learn.

But just don't breeze over good advice, especially if you have modified your car.

got no mods, well no power mods, and I still don't let it go under a quarter

I have never had my fuel light on, and the gauge has been like 3mm under the empty line... and I sure as hell don't want to see if the bulb is broken

Make up your mind

I just made sure the intake is the same height as stock, and while i was there i could see how it gets the last bit of fuel.

Kinda dodgy baffles try to keep it near the pump, but a good corner or steep hill and it would run away and youd get air in the line.

After pulling it out and f-ing around trying to re-seal it, i still smell fuel inside the car sometimes. Have to do it again better this time. DIY LOL :huh:

As I said I've seen my fuel light come on once in 10 months. I normally fill up when it hits E, but my sender is not correct and I can only fit in 40-45 litres

It's like fuel cut.

It can do engines in if it occurs at the wrong time

Bit dramatic I know, but it happens.

(your better of stopping spark than stopping fuel)

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I always wondered how you were supposed to buy a set of 24 buckets and somehow magically have every single one of them yield exactly the desired clearance. I would have thought you'd need to assemble a cam with either 12 "sample" or "example" buckets of known top thickness (or a single such sample/example 12 times over!!) measure clearances at every valve, and then do the usual math to work out what the actual "shimness" of each bucket needed to be, before buying the required buckets to make up he thicknesses that you didn't have on hand.

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I now seem to be limited in power due to my rev limit/hydraulic lifters in my built RB25. I'm looking into converting over to Tomei solid lifters. Question for anyone that has done the conversion. I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  I don't know where I got this idea, as so far I see no mention of this in any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must be missing something?

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation. It just states that I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!?

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.
