After not driving my skyline for a year, probably more i happened to have the opportunity to buy this series 1 R33 from family so missing driving and liking this series 1 i snapped it up..

I've been in and around this car for years and envied it cause to me it just looks hot and has always performed well, 13 second flat quarters with what most say is a shitty HKS 2540 turbo which surged its head off when the cat was gutted..Since then the turbo was replaced with a Hypergear SS2 and still retains the original tune from Japan and everything else thats bolted/attached to it...

I'll just list what i know it has

SS2 hypergear turbo

SAFC controller

HKS boost controller

3inch exhaust system

Mines ecu i think

GTR dash

Blitz side skirts

Trial rear bar

Nismo wheels?

Koyo radiator

Exedy clutch

short shifter

Finally hit the dyno, the 1000cc x spurts at 85% and walbro pump at its limits also so stopping here.  Didn't get chance to play with cam positions and was expecting boost on earlier but it's got plen

So, this thread is going to be simple, currently it was at 200kw's with the 2540, the goal is to get anything north of 280kw's and see how it goes at drags and track.

Have lots of parts so stay tuned for a fairly quick build up :)

Don't know bout others, but pulling an engine out is a bit of an anxious moment, only second time i done this and bloody knock sensor played hard to get but managed to pull the connector off without an engine dropping on my arm :unsure2:

Finally got the covers and turbo housing back, i was originally picturing more of a highly polished look and this come out quite bright if you know what i mean ... this is blindly bright lol

post-70965-0-33405500-1460448606_thumb.jpgpost-70965-0-48296100-1460448630_thumb.jpg

Gonna paint the middle core cause they tend to look all rusty after a short time, hoping to keep it looking this new for good...

Lucky i found these little balls that were in the comp housing, dont think the engine would of like to suck these in.. alot of these guys do a great job on things but then fail on these fine details, fabricator leaves dags that will be sucked in too so i usually take all the pipes off and sand clean them before the engine can be started... :dry:

Yeah, im not happy with the shinyness of the ceramic coated covers, i will probably end up changing them again, have to think bout will look good without being stupid...

Been a few hard slog kinda days, i removed the RB3025 from my silver skyline and now she sits in the maroon beast, was a long frustrating process, almost like it didn't want to go in, played with angles etc to get it in and bolted on the mounts..

Today i been making a few efforts to keep it going, i bolted on the manifold, a few times for various reasons, sorry but im amateur lol... finally got it on, then the air con then the power steering pump, then started putting the HKS exhaust on, dam i have to say im a big big fan of the Jap gear, many dont like it but i do... am a Jap brand whore...

I like showing pics so heres a bunch of them...

Slow progress, waiting for the fabricator to make up an adaptor plate so i can bolt the idle air control thing to the top plenum. It should mean that i can run the neo stuff without any issue..

Have installed all the belts and radiator and decided to try and do the intercooler piping myself. My old man bought a tig welder and has offered to help with welding so this will either be a flop or work well, wont hurt to try for the little cost. I went and picked up some 2.5inch stainless pipes 316grade so we can attempt home job fabrication lol.post-70965-0-80115300-1463649258_thumb.jpg

      A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?

      So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...

      the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
