I thought it was about time I added some of the detail about my project, I have a Mr30 Ti Skyline with a Rb25det conversion. Below is a brief list of improvements I have done over the last few years

Long nose R200 with Detroit locker and Z31 drive shafts

Full 3in exhaust

Replaced all the rear end bushes to keep it in a straight line

Minor tuning/ boost increase with standard engine management to keep it interesting

Added the all important stereo

Eboost street

Z32 brake master cylinder and booster

S13 coil over conversion with brake upgrade

Then things started to get serious with a GTX3076r

850cc injectors

Forward facing plenum with Q45 TB

Front mount Cooler

Splitfire coils

Under car surge tank with 044

Nistune by Status

Quaife centre for the diff

After all that I hit a wall with the standard manifold at 270RWKW and then started to break drive shafts and the clutch was slipping on maximum abuse so, this is where I'm at today

Hybrid low mount manifold sitting on the bench ready to go in once I upgrade the drive shafts

Waiting on parts to make a set of custom shafts with commodore CV's

Installing a built manualised auto with pro ratchet shifter.

I will dig through all the photos to keep it interesting, lots of quality shed time is invested into the ongoing build so far and lots more to come.

Been busy lately and ordered a few bits

Precision turbo inter cooler

Upgraded tailshaft

Aes muffler

Air temp and transmission temp gauge

And a few other bits to stop the trans fro leaking

The cooler arrived and looks very nice. I will put up some nice photos later

Muffler done. I remover two chambered 3in mufflers and put the Aes 3in in and it's quieter and straight through. Can't say enough good things about this muffler and no drone

Cooler to go in on Monday can't wait. My intake temps are 35deg on a 14deg day

Cooler done. Intake temps only move by a few deg now instead of the 30 deg variance with the old one

    • Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. Replace the turbos. Probably completely separate issues.
    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
