Well,

I must say, after coming to SDU/SAU at the start of the year, and "dreaming of a skyline" since I was like 16... It's finally happened.

I am now the proud owner of a White 1995 Series 1.5 GTSt!

1995 Nissan Skyline, White

5sp Manual

Driver Air-bag

Dampener adjustable low suspension

Enkei RP-02's in WHITE

17x8 Front's 17x9 Rears'

Stainless Muffler on cat-back mandrel bent exhaust

Blitz Blow off valve (neatly concealed under the stock airbox)

Genuine Floor mats, updated rear-wing, TypeM front bar.. the usual stuff.

I got it from Melville Auto Imports, whom I highly recommend for great customer service. Kevin was more than happy to take me for drives in more than 3 cars before I made up my mind....

Well, I don't even have pics yet I'm so busy with other stuff (and yes, the cruise pics ARE coming too!) but as soon as I do i'll post some up.

That is all.... see you all on the next cruise!

-Kym

About time Kymbo :P

Seriously though good stuff, and seeing as no ones said it yet be careful of the new power/rearwheel drive combo....and especailly rain, after all it isn't a GTR (thats why me and Micko bought one, they are idiot proof enough to make it look like we can drive :uh-huh: )

Cant wait to see it in pics and in the flesh

      That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.

      They are daft and there's a reason it never caught on. Steering feel? We don't need no stinking steering feel!

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
