Does it guzzle fuel?

only when the motor starts :)

You can see it splashing out the back when you press it,coughing and farting but not as bad as I thought it would.

I still think it was thirstier when it was a 26 , I had to push it harder , now I get better results at lower revs, if that makes sense :/

What is so good with it as a 3.2 is how linear it is from the start, it goes hard but feels like you have the control on the twisty bits. I think the car works great as an all rounder , but i am biased :blush:

cant believe how (if its actually) rich this car is running

well , the plugs get black dry fouled, blows soot out the back, back fires and farts coming down step hills, goes tits up at higher revs and smells rich, could be rich, how rich, wish I was this rich :)

why is that, it is good for over 700HP and it is nowhere near that ???

Small turbine housing, restrictive exhaust with a big pump (engine)... engine is choking.

3.5" will do it... a 2" will 'do it' but why would you want to? Biggest exhaust you can then try and make it quiet with highest flowing mufflers you can if that is an issue.

Surely 3.5" all the way with a free flowing Cat and Muffler should be enough for my goals, I am not chasing every last KW out of the build. I wanted a strong motor that will last as a DD and let me play when I want :)

Really, what a cock of a size, 3.5" should still be good enough

Gotta be better then 3" :(

where down pipe clamps onto the back of the turbo it is 3" outside i diameter , this goes down to the 3" Cat, then it comes out and steps up to 3.5" exhaust

    • 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.
