Good day everyone, I'm new to this sight and I'm not even sure if I'm doing this right or posting this in the right section or not. I have a skyline r34, it has the rb25det neo motor, I have an issue that nobody can seem to solve, please can someone advise or give help. I'm from south africa and we don't get the skyline this side so I had to import mine, so not many guys have experience in fixing this car. Firstly the car was stock.when I came to upon this issue the car would loose power like it dropped a valve but it would happen.every now and again, I had it checked out I was told my spark plugs were wrong so I did research on sights got the right plugs and even gapped it to 0.8mm the car ran fine for awhile then the same issue returned about a month later, I then replaces the coils, once again it worked for a month then the problem returned, some said my ground of the car was not right. I sorted that out but the problem was still there, I then changed my injectors found out one was faulty. The car worked fine for about 3 months then the issue came back and shortly after that the piston melted and the xonrod shot through the block I replaces the motor and put a spitronics management system in now my engine light doesn't want to go offend the new motor is giving the same problem. I don't know how to.fix this issue. Please some advice would be great.

First off stay out of boost until you have a handle on what is going on with the car.

Two start eliminating problems.
Check fuel pump and fuel pressure.

Use multimeter to check earth's

Your check engine light is triggered by the ecu.

Trace the wireing to your ecu and double check every single pin on the ecu harness vs the plug on the engine.

Read the ecu manual to see if it's doing something daft.

Get your car on a load bearing dyno and post a dyno graph.
With Afr and boost.

    • Hang on. Let me get this straight. The desire is to have coilovers, BC in particular, to be MORE comfortable on Sydney roads than stock suspension? Well, that's obviously not right. BCs have crude damping design at the very best, and typically hard spring rates. BC stands for Billy Cart. And then, the desire is to put in some shitty old worn out stockers, to get it blue slipped and then put the BCs back in? And then.....what? Not worry about getting pulled up by the Plod? Because you seem to have raised a worry about paying for engineering (which actually does solve all your legality problems) and still getting pulled up.... but the only problem there is that if/when that happens you have to show your paperwork at the inspection station. Whereas, if you just swap in borrowed shitty old stockers to get it slipped now, and then you get defected in the future, you have to go find more shitty old stockers then too. You course of action looks like this set of options: Buy brand new stock type dampers, and springs. probably cost a bit more than $1k all up, but will last for the remaining life of the car. Put them in, pass inspection, drive on them forever more. Hell, they could even be really nice Bilsteins and Kings or other lower&stiffer springs if you wanted. Get the car engineered as is. ~$1k. Buy new Shockworks coilvers (or MCA) and also pay for engineering. You're spending a lot more here. But these will be the best things that you could drive around on.
    • Might be worthwhile hitting up Facebook's groups, I know most of them contain terrible people and scammers - however you might be able to find someone that's in Sydney with factory suspension you could purchase and/or hire. Just do not send any form of money anywhere, in person cash only.
    • Thanks @Duncan Ride height is fine. I think it's almost stock tbh. Happy to share a pic. I don't actually have a regular mechanic as haven't lived in Sydney too long. Could you or anyone recommend any shops in Sydney?
    • You just need a different blue slip shop (preferably one you regularly use as a mechanic), and make sure the coil overs are as close as possible to standard height
    • yeah the sugar refining companies were pushing for the same in Oz originally, all fuels were going to have 10% ethanol to make them "cheaper" (noting, that the loss in l/100 might be greater than the decrease in price). I guess they won that fight in Canadia
