Hey,

So, I'm new to the scene of Skylines and have just recently bought my first skyline (R33 GTST Series 2). Took it over the pits...and let's just say the repair work is going to cost more then the actual price of the skyline, but none the less, I accept the project.

I know nothing about Skylines, let alone cars in general. I am learning from a few mates and will be browsing the forums to get my "know-how" in tune. First time driving a turbo and I can safely say that I had a massive smile all the way home (2.5 hours) from picking it up.

It's Pearl Orange (I believe) and illegally loud haha. The original plans was for the car just to be a run around car for work but given the circumstances (damage chassis) it looks to be a project car, but nonetheless I'm looking forward to learning more about these fascinating cars.

I do admit, (If I dare) that I am a Holden man (Not bogan) but I do respect Nissan's and the power they can produce.

Again, I look forward to learning about these type of cars and I'm sure the Bank is going to love my interest rates.

Here are some Carsales pictures:

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      You now say stumble, but you said cut out before. Will it slow rev through the cut/stumble? What gap were your spark plugs set to when you them in?

      I had double clamped all the pipes but I checked them over any way, everything tight and secure. feels and sounds like a electrical short/failure, as it is an abrupt and aggressive stumble, that instantly comes and goes right at 4k mark...like clock work fuel pump and filter are new new coils and plugs injectors where cleaned and tested 200 miles plus ago no black smoke cleaned MAF   same results, other ideas? some other sensor?

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yes, just without the annoying use of the word hybrid. We stopped using that term 20 years ago when we realised it meant different things to different people. Even "highflow" can represent more than one way of achieving the goal of getting more flow out of a turbo. But at least it says what it does on the box.

      RB25DET with solid lifters - which cams ?

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      OH, when they say "solid buckets", I always interpeted that as "shimless". (Which is not the same as the "shimness word I invented above to represent the same idea that the buckets act as shims also!!). Still the same problem though. So it appears that buying a "kit" from Tomei is a two step process. Makes sense. Doesn't make sense in the context of a "kit" though.
