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 is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
