Hello all!

I've been reading threads on here for a few years. I rebuilt my RB25 and picked up a lot of info from here. So, thanks!

Now that I just bought an R32 GTR and will be visiting a lot more. Most likely hanging out just reading posts again.

This is currently my 3rd Nissan. I have an all original convertible S13 and a black hatch S13 that I've owned for 20 years now. That had the RB25. Now it is getting an R33 RB26.

AND I'll get this out of the way right now.... I'm in the US! :7_sweat_smile: 

I really respect this page. Great help and a lot of good info.

Thanks again!

Hi are these cars just starting to be legal in the States? Seem to be a few more appearing. Are your cars all road legal or are some just track cars?

They have been more popular over here in the past 4 years. Our federal regulations kept us from getting these cars until they are at least 25 years old. So there may be more of us jumping in here.

 

All three of those cars are street legal. I've had the black one on a couple of road courses over the years. But now it is in the shop for body work. I'd like to preserve it for the next 20 years. I'm converting it to look like a 180 type x.

I do have a track only car as well. It is an older Honda Civic. I wouldn't be terribly upset if I wreck that over any of the Nissans.

      A 1.5 way is a 2 way. It is just a 2 way with a less aggressive ramp on overrun.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      The ABS and/or TCS being missing/broken will not cause the engine to misbehave. It just casues CEL to come on and annoy you. The CEL is useless if it is always on, so you have to do the things you have to do to get rid of it, so it can be useful. Being a Stag ECU, then yes, it will not expect TCS to be present. But it will expect ABS to be present and working. You will need to either make the ABS CU talk to the ECU (don't ask me what that will take on an NA R34), and make sure the hardware is working....or, you just need to blank it out in Nistune. Do not persist with the stock ECU. You will just have problems. Gte it Nistuned. Start from there. DO YOU HAVE A BOOST SENSOR? The ECU's boost sensor that it. It is connected to the loom at the rear of the coil cover. Usually rides on the firewall on an R34, but is usually bolted down to a bracket along with all the other crap at the back of the coil cover when a Neo is dropped into another car. If you do not have it, the ECU will shit the bed. So, do you have one?

      So sadly the fuel pump etc was not it. The pump and filter is new and it is still cutting around 4000 rpm. A read something about ABS/TCS (engine is from stagea and ECU too so no TCS) and i dont know for 100% that my car has ABS. It has ABS "cube" in engine bay but i dont think it works(or at least from my braking experience). Can be something like that?  I will be driving the car next week to Nistune tuner to properly see what is wrong...

      the Tomei LSD fluid with lsd kit. frustrated that it was shaking the car to crap and affecting everything else negatively, I pulled the diff last night, and removed the lsd carrier, could not find anything wrong, however it seem to be 100 locked up acceleration, and deacceleration, wondering if they sent me a 2 way not a 1.5??  either way I installed the stock open carrier back in place. test drove everything smooth as butter again. no shake, shutter, random, what felt like clutch slip and grab or drive shaft play, etc. something differently wrong in side the lsd. I might bother taking it apart (if possible) to figure out what's going on inside this carrier, as bought too long ago to return.  only draw back is its back to a one wheel wonder.
