LONG LIVE THE RB!

So I had a few of the locals come around tonight. Shout out to "Stinky Poo, Sinister & Wilderboy"

They brought along a jump starter and we decided to do another comp test with a starter pack giving it power.

Cyl 1 = 95

Cyl 2 = 90

Cyl 3 = 80

Cyl 4 = 105

Cyl 5 = 95

Cyl 6 = 100

Sat around and pondered the idea about costs doing an engine swap or just giving up on the dream

But Stinky Poo (Don't want to f**k up the spelling to your real name) Decided he wanted to put it back together and give it one more chance.

We put everything back in and back together and the farken bitch started first go!

Didn't even miss a beat!

Right now I'm left scratching my head as to why the compression is still so low (could it be possibly the tester itself?)

and left wondering why the car just decided to start again for no reason.

Leaves me worried I'm going to get stranded somewhere I don't want to be.

Old, Cold Engine. Maybe there was a dodgy electrical connection that improved with reassembly?

"stranded somewhere I don't want to be."

Karma (CARMA) is alive and well. :P

Yeah no more updates, the car is just being daily driven and serviced until I can sell it.

Purchased my R34 and it's build thread will be up as soon as it arrives.

Still need to do another comp test on the 33 before I sell it to make sure the buyer is aware of what his getting.

    • Kinda glad I never got to this ..    https://www.facebook.com/groups/1483859159195077
    • @GTSBoy This method was able to get readings of -10 to -2, so it looks like its monitoring.  Now I need to figure out why the vacuum on the line provided isn't alternating with manifold pressure.  I went with 2 lines that an RB25 tuner recommended but I'll get a longer hose and try directly off the back of the manifold.  He may have been used to OEM intake setups while I have a DBW setup that removed the MAF and IACV.  
    • I work at a car detailing and tinting shop called Quark which gets all manner of German cars in usually (mainly due to a contract with Mercedes Benz Kita Osaka, BMW Nishinomiya and others) but every once in a while something special comes in, like a fully restored 1972 HS30 Nissan Fairlady 240ZG... The shop owner had immediately started applying film to the windows as soon as it was in the shop so the interior was completely covered in towels and plastic sheets. But I could get a few photos of the engine bay which was restored like new. Such an amazing car to see in pristine condition in Japan these days.  
    • Was going to say the car pulls up nicely everywhere, especially going into that last long right hander before the main straight. Looks like a lot of fun.
    • Hey Dave, welcome aboard! Good to see another soon-to-be Stagea owner here. The wagons are awesome — plenty of space, still got that Skyline DNA, and loads of potential if you’re into mods. Definitely post up pics when you get it, everyone here loves seeing new builds. What model/year are you looking at?
