Ok guys, I was trying to fix an oil leak lastnight, I changed my turbo return hose for some nice speed flow fittings and a braided hose, unfortunately I still didn't get it....haha

But to the main problem, I took the car for a quick lap around the block to see if I fixed my oil leak and gave it a boot full as it only leaks at high rpm or when it's on boost, and after I backed off and put in the clutch to roll back up out the front the car suddenly was stuck revving at 4000rpm, I quickly popped the bonnet and checked it wasn't the throttle stuck open for some reason but it wasn't it, could the tps be stuck in a position telling the computer it's still open?

Car has a single throttle body, running a motec computer, not running a afm

It's never done this before and I didn't fiddle or disconnect anything while changing the oil return

Does it have idle air control valve like stock ones? If it wasn't single throttle body it would be the seals only other possibility is u blew a intake manifold gasket? Get some brake cleaner and spray around the inlet manifold while running and see if idle changes.

I don't think it has one anymore, I'll try start it now to see if its had a change of heart today and pull the plug on the tps see if it changes

I killed the power from the battery so hopefully its reset the computer if the motec had a fit

If not ill try find some brake cleaner and give it a spray

Haha was on a roll today, found the leak aswell

Must of been a return for the second turbo from factory, how it was plugged up was absolutely s*@t house and was spraying out, got it all fixed now tho

    • Pressure when IDLING, is meant to be 51PSi... So that amperage value needs to go up a fair chunk... I'd personally be factoring for more like 12amp at least on those runs, and at that point you need to hope the already there wiring doesn't drop you a volt or two, as that's a lot of fuel pressure flow drop off from 13.5 to 12V! Taking idle pressure of 51psi, means the pump will be drawing a MINIMUM of 9amps all the time based on your reading of the graph (3bar base, then allowing an extra 0.5bar for boost = roughly 51psi)
    • Hi all,  I am in the market for an R200 longnose diff out of a Z31 300ZX, or S12 RSX, DR30 skyline, or similar, in a 3.9 ratio.  Preferably a late model one with the M12 crownwheel bolts.  The only easy to find advert for one of these was my ad back in 2007 when I sold it on this forum.  I sold the diff as I had sold the car it goes to, but as it turns out, after 18 years I got the car back late last year, so now I'm looking for the diff !  If anyone knows where to find a longnose R200 LSD with the M12 crownwheel bolts, drop me a line at [email protected] - Bonus paid if soomeone comes up with the original diff (stranger things have happened !).  Cheers   Ben D    
    • Hi everyone, I used to post here a bit from 2004-2013, when I owned various Nissans, in particular my S12 RSX gazelle, which was sold in 2007.  As luck would have it, after an 18 year hiatus, the car found its way back to me last year, and over the past 11 months I have had the pleasure of restoring it with my kids.  One thing that I am after in particular is a 3.9 ratio R200 LSD for it.  I actually sold the one out of the car here back in 2007 , and it would be incredible if I could track down who I sold it to, so I can see how they have progressed over the years (and to be honest, to see whether I can get the diff back !).  Anyways, hi all and let me know "where are the R200 Longnose diffs all at these days ?  Cheers Ben D  
    • Arms will be the same as the G35 or 350Z, but as above, there was a change in the lower control arm where it connects to the ball joint.  That said, you can remove the ball joint cone from your old ball joints and fit them to the new ball joints.  To be honest, I didn't think the ball joints themselves were different. The main ball joint is a bit awkward to replace, you really need to remove the steering knuckle to press out the old one.  Some people have used tools to remove it in place, but it just seemed too hard to get to. If you are going to press out/in that ball joint, then you may as well just replace the bushings in the LCA and the compression rod.  You can buy the compression rod bushing from Nissan, but the LCA bushes, you will need to go aftermarket. Much cheaper than buying the whole arm.
    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
