Few months later this happened, poor thing :/

New turbo on and shit, still to be tuned properly.

Larger wastegate and headstuds, fix the flex fuel stuff, battery relocation and a continue to tidy the engine bay more. I bought another gtr shell as a project track car so i suspect this motor will go into that car.

love the wheels, my head is slowly moving away from the meister/professor style of stepped lips and bolted centers (which i still hrrrng for) and really appreciating smooth spoked/ concave wheels.
and those are a nice classic.

So due for a little bit of an update. Drove this around for a day to tune it towards the end of march and found:

Alternator no longer works properly when it gets warm, resulting in low fuel pressure etc etc

Bovs are open at idle and dont seem to like holding pressure

Aparently i cant run any less that 23ish psi without pulling the gate out to replace spring (ran 14psi before no worries?)

Solved all these problems by removing the interior........ Well in my mind at least.

Plan is to run NSW time attack for a laugh, probably need to get some tyres sorted haha. So weekend just gone removed seats and vacuumed carpet, removed amplifier and unnessisary cabling in boot. Started to remove interior trims to fit harness bar and continue wire tidy. Still have to fix above mentioned problems before it gets tuned again but at least i have a course of action.

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
