1996 NISSAN SKYLINE SERIES 2 KOUKI AUTO TURBO. TWIN AIR BAG MODEL.
A VICTIM OF THE RECENT HEAT WAVE, THE HEAD HAS GIVEN WAY AND WILL NEED TO BE REPAIRED. WITH BABY PLANS IN THE WORKS IT MAKES SENCE TO PASS IT ONTO SOMEONE YOUNGER WITH MORE KNOWLEDGE ABOUT CARS.
1 OWNER 146,000KM FEMALE DRIVER. IMPORTED FROM SEI MOTORS DANDENONG. NEVER RACED, BARELY EVER SPUN THE WHEELS.

THE GOOD:

PLENTY OF GOOD PARTS WHICH CAN BE SALVAGED BUT I THINK THE CAR IS TOO GOOD TO DISMANTLE.
THE WHEELS ARE GMAX SPORTS GUN METAL W/ POLISHED LIP WITH STAGGERED WIDTHS. 18X7 FRONT WITH FIRESTONE'S PLENTY OF TREAD AND REAR 18X9.5 REARS WITH STRECHED RUBBER. NOT A NOTABLE NAME BRAND BUT GOOD TYRES WITH PLENTY OF RUBBER.
ALSO 2 MORE GMAX 18X7 WITH BAD TYRES AND 4 STANDARD SERIES 2 STOCK 15" WHEELS WITH 3 ROAD WORTHY TYRES.
AFTER MARKET CRUISE CONTROL WITH SENSOR AND MODULE FOR HILL ASCENT / DECENT. COST $1000 FITTED AT AUTOBARN
GREDDY INTERCOOLER LESS THAN 1 YEAR OLD. WITH PIPING KIT COST $800. INSTALLED BY CHASERS MOTORWORKS WEST MEBOURNE
GREDDY TURBO TIMER, DARKEST LEGAL TINT, FRONT STRUT BRACE, HARD TO FIND SERIES 2 BONNET WITH SMOOTHED AIR VENT DONE BY TEAM JETSPEED CLAYTON. THEY ALSO FITTED A FRONT BAR ADD ON, SIDE SKIRTS, REAR GTR PODS, REAR DRIFT WING, THIS GIVES THE CAR A SLEEK SHAPE WHICH WAS THE AIM. ALSO INCLUDED IS THE ORIGINAL REAR SPOILER WITH BRAKE LIGHT. STEREO: 3 WAY 6" ROUND SPEAKERS IN FRONT DOORS WITH TWEETERS AS WELL AS THE SAME SPEAKERS IN REAR PARCEL SHELF WHICH IS CARPETED 19mm THICK MDF. I CAN'T REMEMBER IF KENWOOD OR PIONEER BUT THEY SOUND GREAT. INTERIOR IS VERY NEAT. MY PARTNER HARDLY EVER HAD PASSENGERS SO THE SEATS ARE IN GREAT CONDITION AS WELL AS THE ROOF LINING. ALL ORIGINAL SKYLINE MATTS. THE BOOT HAS COMPLETE ORIGINAL CARPET WITH NEAR NEW SPACE SAVER AND THE BOOT FLOOR HAS BEEN PAINTED WITH RUST PROOF TAR SO NO RUST. CLEAR SIDE INDICATORS, THE CAR WAS MECHANICALLY SOUND BEFORE SHE DIED. SERVICED EVERY 10K WITH CASTROL MAGNATEC AND RAN ONLY 98 RON FUEL. BODY IS RUST FREE. VIPER ALARM / IMMOBILISER WITH TWO REMOTES.

THE BAD:

AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PHOTOS THE REAR HAS BEEN HIT. THIS WAS NOT OUR FAULT, THE PERSON HAS FULL COMPREHENSIVE SO IT AND CAN BE FIXED FOR FREE IF YOU WANT TO TAKE IT TO A RACV REPAIRER. (SPOT ON PANELS ARE WAITING FOR IT) I HAVE A CLAIM NUMBER AND I HAVE INFORMED RACV THAT THE CAR IS NOT RUNNING AND THEY ARE NOT CONCERNED. FOR THIS REASON I WILL LEAVE THE PLATES ON UNTIL THE WORK IS DONE. THIS MAY LEAD TO THE PLATES STAYING ON IF RWC AND ENGINE REPAIR ARE DONE SIMULTANEOUSLY. TAKE NOTE: IF I DON'T GET $3000 THEN THE PLATES WILL COME OFF PRIOR TO SALE AND THE NEW REAR END WILL NOT HAPPEN. THE FRONT BUMPER ADD ON NEEDS FIBRE GLASSING AND THE FRONT BUMPER NEEDS PAINT AND RE-POSITIONING. THE CAR HAS A FEW MARKS, ITS HARD TO SEE THEM IN A PHOTO OF A WHITE CAR TAKEN ON AN iPHONE BUT THEY EXIST. THE REAR PANELS HAVE SPOTS THAT THEY LOOK LIKE THEY HAVE BEEN TOUCHED BY A TROLLEY. THE WHEELS SHOW SIGNS OF GUTTER RASH WHICH ARE VISABLE UPON CLOSER INSPECTION. THE CD PLAYER WAS A GIFT SO IT STAYS WITH ME AND THE ANTENNA IS BROKEN. AND OF COURSE THE HEAD IS BLOWN.

    • What does it look like with highway driving? And yes, I had a similar thought as Duncan. It looks quite similar in my Stagea and I have made myself accept it as normal. Might have to look into it some day  
    • While I was waiting for the new parts to come in for the charge pipe and radiator I decided to do some turbo modification. The drive pressure (exhaust backpressure) was a lot higher that I thought it should be. For 32lbs of boost drive was 55lbs. The turbine housing is a 1.10AR and my turbo builder has suggested to go to a 1.25AR. To test if a larger AR would do anything to reduce drive pressure AND not spend any money I decided to hog out the divider in my current housing. I removed it from the inlet and the whole way through the housing.  After reassembly and testing it doesn't look like this modification did anything for reducing drive pressure or requiring more fuel (making more power). Oh well, it was worth a shot. We'll get some data at the track if it makes it past the 60ft. I also machined a $7 shift knob off Amazon to fit my Stillway shifter since I didn't like the Stillway shift knob. Next on the list was the radiator replacement and fabrication of a new intercooler tube that had no silicon coupler. No pictures of this - I was short on time each night after work to get this done and didn't stop to take pictures.  Next was to get the clutch disks out and replaced. Previously when installing the dogbox I had ordered a set of the same sintered iron disks I had been running because I switched to the 26-spline input shaft. I thought it was odd that they didn't have any markings or brand name on them like all my old disks had but installed them anyway. At the track I could not get the clutch to lock up using my normal strategies. After two track nights I reached out to the clutch manufacturer and ask their thoughts. They said they had to switch the material out because they were having trouble getting the original material and that this new material would not take to being slipped very well.  So out with the first set of 26-spline disks and in with the correct material 26-spline disks. While I had the trans out I added an inspection/service hole. I've wanted one of these for a while. Now I can have a look at things and change the front cover shimming when needed (clutch wear). I hustled and got the clutch change done in a few hours on a Saturday. Hopped in the car and drove home. On the way home I did a 1-3 pull. When shifting from 2nd to 3rd the core plug in the back of the cylinder head popped out and dumped all the coolant. Thankfully I was only 30 seconds from home and coasted it there. Datalog showed nothing unusual and 2.5psi of coolant pressure. That plug has been in there since 1992 but I guess it worked its way out. Pulled the trans AGAIN and replaced the plug, JB welded it in, and made a brace. Also deleted the head drain I had added in during the bearing issue fiasco.  I am currently changing my boost control plumbing to make it cleaner. After that is done I'll make another attempt at getting past the 60.
    • Are you 100% sure this isn't tune related?
    • 140-150 across the board. At this point hoping the grounding harness fixes it. My grounds are all tied to the chassis and none to the battery. For SR and KA that’s never been a problem for me but had a few other guys here and Reddit who told me RB really like a very solid ground setup tied to the battery so going to try that next, I’m stumped if that doesn’t do it. Never had a car have spark and fuel and not fire off before. Only thing I can think is the spark is intermittent/weak because of grounds nothing else really makes sense at this point 
    • I am having close to the same issue. Can you help me with what wire you grounded to get your pump to trigger?
