HI Scott thanks for the reply,this car was owned by my son he treated it very nicely and only put rims and a head unit in it so it is all STD i drove it about 1 year ago and the HICAS worked fine but he said that the last couple of months he could feel it doing strange things,I have just swaped it for a ve commy as he is about to have a family,when i drove it home 700 ks i drove over some rough road and since that the back end wants to steer itself VERY SCARY.I have been under the car and all the suspension seems ok other than the pass side back strut which has a very small weep this has been there for awhile.I am a mechanic and have been for 35 years so I know what to look for but would like a workshop manual for this thing,love my nissans,not sure if you know what a 240k yes a 240k not a z is, but in my younger day i owned a 4 door version i had a l2.8 in it nizmo race cam high compression big valves 3 inch exhaust 650 holley double pumper and so on,, very wild in the day this car used to stay up with the v8s it was a 12 second car, but now im limited to my patrol until i got the r34.

    • Ok so will run the piping over that radiator and no plenum it is. Put that money towards a Haltech and see what suits. Any ideas something like an elite 2000 or 2500 right? My long term goal is 300kw e85 and manual swap and that’s a dream come true. For now will be 200kw and auto the stock rb25det neo intake isn’t too expensive with throttle body. If I was to have the port matching done, Would that be better than the stock de intake as the det has bigger holes plus has the spots for sensors etc? And suit more long term?  appreciate the advice?   
    • You understand AFR is not the only thing that contributes to it pinging yeah? Funnily, what the AFR gauge will tell you when it likely is pinging, is going to make you think things are really safe and good.
    • Run the piping how we all have for decades. Also the duel runners with the +T setup dramatically helps it gets on boost quicker. Yes, chase huge power it'll become a problem, but you're a long way off when you're already saying an aftermarket ECU is out of the budget. You also say NisTune as it's simple, and then immediately say it'll be painful, meaning... It won't be simple. It will likely cost you a lot more stuffing around with a Nistune, than just putting a Haltech or similar in.
    • I’ll order an afr gauge to keep an eye on it.  Then will get a haltech soon 
    • TD05 or maybe pulsar PSR2867r Gen 2?  id love a garret but it’s quite out the budget for now and I’m not chasing crazy power.    yeh fuel pump haven’t looked into but whatever works, kind of last on my list.    Nistune because it’s simple but Ik it’s a lot of pain especially as I’m auto +t with the whole seperate TCM etc still investigating that. Haltech id love but once budget tight for now atleast.    finally the reason I’m trying for a plenum instead of the stock intake is I already have a standard Intercooler mounted etc. so the ports are on both sides so trying to not have to go over the clutch fan radiator etc. trying to find a good deal return flow if I don’t than this will do for now I guess. btw any ideas with that, apparently some people have to cut blades to reduce it from hitting the Intercooler piping over the radiator ? Thanks
