I have a 'wanna be' skyline, lol.... VL Commodore. Its a bit of a sh1tbox atm, its N/A RB30, and the paint has almost faded to bare metal in some parts.... But soon i am going to drop an RB25DET in, hopefully a neo if i can get one for the right price. After that i'll change the exterior fully to Calais then go for a spray.

Currently though

1987 VL Berlina

N/A RB30E

3 spd auto

lowered by pedders (meh, lol)

VZ SV8 Commodore 17" wheels

Extractors, hot-dog, 2.5 redback exhaust, redback muffler, 2.5" chrome tip

Alpine head-deck, four 6" alpine speakers, alpine mrp-350 amp, two 12" subs in dual box bolted into the car.

Alarm/immobiliser/keyless entry

wood grain steering wheel

new radiator and crank angle sensor (about 2 months old)

i drive around a lot, so you might have seen me (pushin it to its limits, which isnt too much mind you, lol)

i'll try and get some pictures soon....

Hi MiK,

I had the same trouble mate. I e-mailed my pics and the guys cut em down to size using a software package and sent em back. Worked a treat.

Anyone able to help Mick by volunteering?

hi guy's. Im trying to put a pic of my car up but when I try to attach, it comes back with file to large or some crap. How do I attach a photo if I have just saved it to a normal folder on my computer?

Hi guys, kinda new in town, well, this is actually my second year here, but i've now moved from bikes to what my mum 'thought' is a much 'safer way to travel'.... until i told her i got a skyline :P

R32 GTS-T, pretty much stock... got 17s from Japan and shes lowered a bit at the front, and I've just invested in the start of my focal sound system.

thought i'd just put this here to say hi, get into the loop

hi from ireland all .have not had car for long so not much done yet so here it goes 92 r32 gtst

hks turbo timer

apexi pigyback.ecu

hks air filter

hks sqv

blitz decat

blitz nur-spec exasust (cat back)

coming soon

hks frount mount

new turb (any sugestions)

new set of 18" volks

set of tein coilovers

strut braces

and some more eletronics

it was up on the rollers yesterday result was 260bhp iam aiming for 300+ with some internil work so wish me luck

I heard stories of the GTS being attacked with a hybrid stencil and paint can :D

:headspin: Yeah, its amazing what spur of the moment ideas lead to, my mate was doing the fmic install and we just grabbed the can and attacked the undercoat panel (one of them anyway)

:matrix:

nice car col, many 'lines in Ireland?

was that 260hp a flywheel figure or rear wheel?

sorry for the late reply supafly havent been on line .liners are still rare here which means parts are hard to get but a mate who imports cars has 2 cars for parts so i should be ok.its 260hp at the fly but thats still not bad .a mate has a r33 gts t runing 450hp at the wheels but he is aiming for 500hp. he owns the top tuning company in ireland (xtrem-autos)so he has the money and eqeipment to do it.i often ask him why he didnt just get a gtr but he said that would too easy.and it wouldnt be to much of a challeng. lol

what is ur car running mate???????? :matrix:

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
