Good luck.

After I had my engine built (8000km's after) I had a "o" ring fail on the oil cooler and it start to leak oil everywhere. Guys had me in the shop the day after i found out and fixed the same day.

They seemed to care about their build work and the engine. Was reassuring to say the least.

They are a very busy shop. GTR's everywhere.

Half your luck ?

That hurts Mark :)

They do some really good builds and the blokes there know what they are doing.

Maybe my type of build is not what they specialize in as they seem to get into the drag/speed cars.

Anyway, hopefully after I drop it off on Monday I will get it back firing on all 6 in a week :)

It really does not like starting in the cold weather :(

Sounds like they didn't go into the cold start setup on the ECU and compensation settings. Hopefully it all goes well when it returns.

Their other tunes were fine.

I think this is getting worse because it is running rich, the plugs would be like they are covered in black velvet and I do not feel like having a new set of plugs put in, just did that, already put 3 sets in, well I didn't , my mechanic did :) +$

Looks like some good work on the 3.2 stroker here from CRD

sounds awesome...

Not a street gtr at all, as suggested. Actually not even a gtr with an auto in it. What a load of crap . It's a drag car.

The 26 stroker sounded much better then the vl block.

So if an Auto is not counted , what about the sequential box ?

Even my heap cannot be called a real Skyline, different motor,turbo,ECU,radiator,clutch, Tranny, front and back diffs and a lot more ????

So if it is not counted with an Auto box, when is a skyline, not a skyline ?

There are two GTRs in NZ that have done 7 second runs but they were drag specials. Rips has built a few "street" (as in road registered ) R34 GTRs for dragging with powerglide boxes doing 8s but the fastest proper street GTRs that I know are doing 9s. There are a load of Street GTRs doing 10s.

Exactly the same as a tubbed 120y with a Sb chev , 2 speed power glide and 9 inch doing 9s. No difference

So as long as the outside resembles your model Skyline, it is ?

Whatever, I like it :)

So do I,

but it's a drag car not a street car.

Before I bought my car it was being work by them, but not for a street car, laggy as fark. It was an impulse buy and turned into a financial nightmare because I am a stubborn SOB, haha

But I really got to like the car and here I am, still going at it :wub:

    • It's been a little over a decade since I bought the S15. As I did on my socials, I'll share some of my favorite pictures from over the years further below. If you haven't realised, pretty much all the pictures in my posts are ones I've taken.  In terms of updates, I don't have pictures, but I acquired a near-perfect pair of fog lights from a friend of mine, so those got swapped in for the pair I already had. As for the JZX110, I just got it back from being fixed. A few weeks back, I was on the highway when I suddenly drove over something with very little time to react. It was probably the size of a soccer ball, but it went under the car and banged into the underside pretty loudly. I pulled over and realized the fluid leaking was fuel, and of course, it was right near my exhaust. This required replacing the fuel tank. If you happen to be in the same predicament, thankfully this car shares a fuel tank with the JZS171, IS200, and IS300, so it wasn't too painful to replace. Enjoy some pictures as mentioned above, including the carnage from the fuel tank and a bonus picture I came across which shows how ridiculously shiny the Bugels are on the 110. So many more pictures I could share of the S15 but this will do for today, enjoy. 
    • Welcome.  Was the mistake the car, or joining us? 😏
    • Yeap, was me and the daughter getting coffee before heading to the new joint to measure up the fridge space and taking some pics that the solar installer wanted of the switch board

    • Factory Dash Lamps...Half the speedo was dark...T10 3 Watt Park Lamps...T10 5 Watt Tachometer Chip/IC...Tach would randomly go crazy or stop, replacing  capacitors and re-soldering the chip would work for a week or so but it would always fail again...AN8352UBK (Buy on ebay AU) Heater/Air Con Control Button Lamps...Grain of Wheat Bulb 12V...Tried LED's they fail after a month or so(even with current limiting resistors)
