Ok.....my car has just been into the garage and I have been told that the turbo is (a jap piece of shit) anyway he says the waste gate ain't opening properly. Now the turbo was fine on the old engine, but after I swapped them out, it's coughing and spluttering. Realising that the old engine wasn't standard, and I need new parts, I was wondering if someone could give me a shopping list on what's required and best place to get them.

High flow injectors

Coil pack

New ecu (because that ones buggered apparently)

Turbo if I can find one.

Anything else?

Any help would be awesome cheers.

If the wastegate isn't opening then I'd find out if it is just fouling on the dump pipe, or whether it's actually dead.

For the turbo you could either get your one rebuilt or buy a used one. There's probably someone selling one in the for sale section

As for injectors, what size are you after? Just stock ones?

What about ecu? Just stock? It's odd for an ecu to die, but if it is, and you just want a stock one, either try the for sale section of the forum or an import wreckers or even ebay.

For coils, you could either get genuine ones from nissan, or yellow jackets or splitfires. Both of those are available online, probably even from traders advertising on the forum in the traders section. That goes for most of the things you are after actually.

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
