Picked up from the Painter

I haven't been too active for a while, the last part of my project had taken a bit of a back seat as getting a car painted is, as we all know, pretty expensive. I did just pick my car up from the painter this week. Spent today washing, polishing, waxing and getting the last of the body kit back on the car. Is nice to have the aesthetic portion of the car underway now after having owned it for so long. Just the interior to finish now. Did get an Apple Car Play stereo into it, not just need the new carpet, and rear seat covers and new trims and it'll be like a new car. Very excited to have had this part of it finally done. I thought I'd come and post and share this. The forums here were integral in figuring out how I wanted to do fix up the car, so thanks to everyone.

I don't have a build thread, just a bunch of questions littered around the forum from about this time in 2011 until Jez tuned it in January 2012. Do have some more pics from the day I picked it up though. Was a long day today washing, polishing, waxing, steel wool on the windows. Feels very good to finally have it painted by a pro :)

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      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

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      I'm with you here. It's either loom has an issue, OR, injectors are not functioning properly. It could even be they're just constantly dribbling, hence the wet, but not firing.

      Depending on how long the car sat it is very possible for injectors to be stuck open or closed, I'd get them cleaned and flow tested. Other than that, obviously when the loom changes and the car doesn't start any more....the loom is suspect so some tracing / comparing may be required
