uploading a video now.taking awhile. i took pic of it sitting at idle. it idled quite well, but when i put my foot on the accelerator slightly the revs would drop a bit and it didnt sound like it was enjoying it to much and hesitated but once revs got up over 2000rpm it wasnt too bad. i wouldnt call the engine running either..just started lol its something and better then it not starting i suppose post-14097-0-49749300-1446103275_thumb.jpg

Going by the second video I'd say you've got a popped head gasket. Does it blow white smoke when you rev it? Looked like it was blowing white from that video. White=coolant entering combustion chamber.

Sounds dead average in the first video especially when it first fires. What is going on when you cranked it over, that noise was horrible.

when i was cranking it i had to pump on the accelerator to get it started. not sure why, would that be lack of fuel pressure ? or clogged fuel filter ? im changing that and oil etc. tomorrow .

probably still some old fuel in the tank too. it did blow a bit of white smoke but i could only see when my fiance video'd it. i did notice smoke when i looked behind me and revved it . cant rev it anymore due to stock ecu so cant do much till i get check the vipec ecu.

really struggled to start that time.first time i started it wasnt as bad

lmao i was thinking that too.really does sound like a lawn mower.it didnt sound like that in person though. it didnt sound all that bad in person once it was idling

if you watch the first video, at the end when i hit fuel cut at around 2500rpm you'll see smoke. i cant tell what colour it is personally.looks white to me

all coils are working with the stock ecu. i didnt try start it with the vipec since i knew it was only sparking on 1 or 2 cylinders. i changed all the spark plugs after i did the compression tests too.

derrr. I forgot you were running it with the stocker. Ignore me.

that's going to be a real bugger to rego if/when you get it running................if that's the way your going

I saw the front bumper/cooler area and thought much the same. No f**king way is it getting registered anywhere near like that.

i was going to put the stock twin turbo setup on it to pass rego lol but yeah i know it would be tough to get rego'd. i doubt its been engineered .how can i check ?

guy who had it before me had it on the road though.

i was going to change the turbo eventually anyway.dont want one that big. would prefer a low mount single turbo if it will fit

a lot of work and cost ahead for you

If it was engineered you would have received the certificate with purchase and it may have a mod plate

a lot of single turbo skylines on the road are not certified. They wait till they get booked

can you pm me the link on sau that you bought it from please

that's the exact answer i was hoping to hear lmao can't really test anything now untill battery arrives. was going to install my fpr but the screws threaded on the stock fpr . piece of shit screw driver !! know idea how im going to get that off. the fpr i got looks shit anyways i think i'll try for a refund :/

Get a refund. If there is anything wrong with yours I can send you an OEM fpr for free.

    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
    • To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.
    • I use FCC car launcher. It has an option for different backgrounds, so instead of turning the screen off you can swipe 'up' to a black screen with no background/icons. (mine has the time on it only). It's kinda nice. Also lets you use gestures to say swipe to go to next song, etc.
