Yes, wheels world are agents for whiteline. They arnt in subi any more though, not sure where they are now. Nasty landlord wanted to raise the rent to an unreasonable amount so they have moved.

im going to set the story straight. i know the landlord.

the landlord did not want to increase their rent at all. they owe alot of money, which is mostly owed to the landlord in unpaid rent.

there are no winners. everyones lost out.

rob, can u please refrain from calling the landlord "nasty" until u know the real story. thanks.

i have nismo adjustable suspension all round in my car and am gonna take it to the drags soon, what would i need to set the rear on for optimum performance?? i am gathering that i would set it on the softest possible, to get the best traction, but im not entirely sure, can someone enlighten me on this???

u want a setup that doesn't bounce back up quickly after it squats. ie so the rear stays down allowing the tyres to grip better due to the weight being transfered towards the rear.

how u do that with adjustable suspension i have no idea but thats what your after.

I dont think you'll see an increase in power (maybe a better curve and maybe a couple of kw's). But with the better cooler the car will be getting more cool air in and intake temps will be better which will stop detonation. The next step is either bigger turbo and more boost, or (I would do this first) new ecu or rechip the r32 cpu.

sorry buddy, not sure what you're talking about - think you might have yourself in a twist :(

1.34 HP to every KW

kw = 1000W

watt=power

if running stock turbo you might find your car runs worse.. not better when fitting the new cooler. You may need to get some tuning done?

That cooler may to big for you current application.

I fitted a 750X350X100 to my R33. Initially run like crap, it gave me lag... took sh*t load of tuning of AFC and adjusting timing to get it right. In the end the cooler increased my power by 10kw on the dyno.

To this day I believe the cooler was to big for my car.......

      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.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      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

      By MBS206 · Posted

      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.

      By Duncan · Posted

      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
