Slow 180sx VQ30DETT


Recommended Posts

Pretty much, I'm sending a container over with house stuff anyway so sending the parts won't be an issue.  Not sure if I could be bothered though to be honest..  maybe time to get out of the game.

I'll probably put the rolling body up for sale here, if it sells it sells, if not I might just have to send it over.  We'll see.

Looks like I have no choice really and I'll have to accept the bmw/eurolife.  I hope this thing sells quickly.. I'm only in the middle of a complete fuse box change over and relocation (all the fuse box wires are cut at the moment), so I'll just need to finish that and put the interior back together and get her on the market.

Thanks.  Lol I can't keep going from making 1 bad decision to another, you'll have to prey on some unsuspecting innocent soul that doesn't know how cars will financially ruin him

lol....

I kept a spreadsheet on the current shit box, total costs excludes serviceable parts (fluids, pads, filters, etc.), dyno tuning (because I tuned it myself), but still it's crept up to $90k for a shit box GTS-t.

Holy shit that's a bit of money.  I haven't kept track of mine and I don't even want to know, I would estimate somewhere in the mid 40's and I'd still have to spend another 15k to even get it moving (ecu, suspension, tune, a lot of an fittings, wiring etc) that doesn't include needing a paint job, new seats and all of that.  This is probably for the best, better I stop myself now than spending more on a car that's gonna make 350kw on a good day.

    • What's wrong with the OEM filter. They do the job perfectly. As to your actual problems. Stop driving the. Take it to a mechanic. If you actually do have a fuel delivery limitation and you are putting it under load, you could be killing it.

    • I don't know the answer, but my uneducated guess is this will not work (or, not as you want it to). I would wire the SLD into VSS1, I bet that is what the limiter uses However, I also bet the ECU compares VSS1 and VSS2 and throws and error if they are different. Best suggestion I can make is wire it into VSS1 and see how you go, I guess the error will only appear above 180 when then SLD is active. If it appears at lower speeds put a switch into the SLD earth (or power supply) and only turn it on when you need to go over 180.
    • Hi all, So, looking to do some general maintenance on the car, as it has developed a some slight (related?) problems; Three problems that I think are related. 1999 R34 GTR RB26 - engine will sometimes cut out while left on idle, but will keep going if I keep throttle input. Usually after having driven a while. Its random, somedays wont happen at all, others will happen once or twice in a half hour drive. - Second issue is that while driving, the car will sometimes not be able to get past 3k rpm, no matter how much throttle input I apply. - Lastly, car will sometimes be real laggy climbing through rpm, but if I apply lots of throttle problem will seem to clear and go back to normal. All issues come and go, again somedays no sign of any problem, other days will just be stuttering around for ages.   I think it might be either the fuel system, or maybe the AFM?   Either way, I am going to clean the AFMs, and replace the fuel filter, use some injector cleaner in the next few fill ups, and might look at doing the fuel pump aswell.   Question I have, is filter such as; https://www.efisolutions.com.au/pro-fuel-filter-30-micron-an8-orb-black Fine to replace the normal filter? Their product page says as a prefilter only and not as the main EFI filter, so I'm guessing I would still need the stock one? Can I get an aftermarket one that has AN8 fittings to replace the OEM one? Or is the OEM one just something you have to live with?
    • I say this and there’s a Nistune r34 GTT MT ECU for sale on eBay.de but I need to figure out compatibility between the AT harness and MT ECU - TCS considered. I figure this HKS SLD is a quick bandaid anyhow.
