Picked up the paper and the byline screamed, “Police seek white Skyline driver”.

OK a Skyline driver did something silly, but how often do we read, “Police seek naturally aspirated V6 Commodore driver”?

Never.

Something about the Skyline name conjures up images of fast/furious smoking tyres and in most of those cases it will be some dunger Commodore or a rusted-out S chassis.

The local rag must have mentioned “white Skyline” at least 4-times in the report while the main story of a “B” double car transporter roll-over read more like an ad for Claytons Towing.

I was surprised the usual "high powered turbo Nissan Skyline" wasn't quoted. Have to wonder if any of these scribblers have ever been for a drive in a stock Rb, it's not all that exhilarating.

Got to love integrity in journalism, oxymoron anyone??

Fact: NA V6 Commodores are the fastest ever man-made object. All people ever see is a blur, so they cannot be identified when involved in criminal activity. :P

I guess it's much the same as any article about a road incident involving a person under the age of 25 classifying them as a "hoon", or "boy racer" in NZ.

    • Ok thanks..that was my second question if i can somehow bypass this even with Nistune(that is all i have right now...aparat from stock ECU. So with some aftemarket it can by "bypassed" or make it work?  I know there is Link or Haltech (mainly used). We have ECUmaster here so i will gather some info about it.
    • Yes. You will need to get the original boost sensor and wire it in. That is.... if you plan to use a stock ECU - even a Nistuned ECU. The Nissan ECU will not operate correctly without it connected. And yes, it will do annoying stuff like you are experiencing. You will almost certainly be better off with some aftermarket ECU, than trying to hunt down rare sensors.
    • Ok so ABS/TCS is "not" the problem. Yeah i know now about the ABS with Nistune(i told that to the Nistune guy) but iam not 100% why or why i dont have ABS. ABS cube is in the engine (always has been) but i had braked couple of times rly hard and brakes just locked and scream. Does all Skylines have ABS cube? That boost sensor https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/367633-wtb-r34-gtt-turbo-pressure-sensor-pics-inside/ Is this it? I need to ask but i have a picture of engine bay and i do not see that (100% is not in that place) If i do not have this the car can do what mine is?(cutting around 4000 rpm) Here is the pic of my engine bay(only one i have) BUT i think i dont have that cuz loom was used from my RB20DE NEO and i know (obviously) that it does not have boost control or any wire to that...) so maybe that is the problem? (i dont know for 100% if that car where the engine is from had that)...but i dont have the loom from that
