back on topic......im sick of people saying skylines are girls cars

LOL who the f**k said that?

2 door lancer i can see. but a skyline?

I saw about 5 lancers with women driving them. And they all had their faces against the steering wheels because the chair was moved forward and holding the wheel like an L plater

I couldn't help but laugh at them

sick of the coptention, that's why i'm buying a soarer next, cheap, good, reliable, comfortable, boring

which engine?

drove a 1u soarer on saturday. handles like a dream just as it is.

haha, i can understand the girl car comments. Only because i used to be a commodore v8 fan, and well... i dished it out a fair bit lol. whistling.gif

Lets just say, the reason i bout my 33 was it was cheap. Regardless of my 'girly' misconception of them. Then i drove it! That changed my mind drastically.

yeah the tt soarers are meant to be pretty good

I can understand where everyone is coming from and the topic did drift off a bit there..i was sounding a bit high and mighty with the shit ive said yeah ive done a fair bit of dumb shit but never in the plain sight of the public, i dont know if i read your posts wrong dude but from the way i saw it was you saying your an elite driver and whatever i just dont take show ponying real well but if im wrong to accuse you of something you meant in a completely different way i apologize, i just hate everyone getting the wrong impression on skyline drivers being the owner of a tidy 34 i dont really get shit all that much although i will get onto some storys soon but for some reason its always the 33 owners copping shit which i dont understand...first story was when i was with my friend in his 33, its actually a very nice car and driving through smaller towns all we got was bad looks, even abused by a lady at a servo saying idiots like us driving those souped up poofter boy cars arent welcome around here if were going to do 'squealys'...which we both found hilarious as we coasted into the servo doing about 5km/h, filled up and left, in the city in my own 34 ive had really good and really bad comments...the good ones being from people who arent bias to them and can respect something nice...worst and funniest ive ever had was sitting at the gold coast sitting on the lights driving through surfers paradise after noticing a couple of guys close to me in a vl turbo the whole time i couldnt really hear a nice exhaust note or spool..just a whole lot of bov, he pulled up and looked kind of smug next to me and his mates like straight away race us at the next lights bro my boys car is turbo, i replied yeah i could tell he likes to let that blow off valve off a fair bit...he said yeah it sounds sick hey, i was like not really my thing it shouldnt be sounding like a washing machine at like 5psi then hes like what are you even talking about, laughing to myself the light went green and he kept next to me yelling to spin the wheels, i tried to ignore them but didnt want to speed off and give them the satisfation...pulled up at the next lights and he was continuing to rev the car and came out with come on bro we will give you a head start cause yours only has one of those shitty nissan engines in it, i laughed and looked at him and said...oh really, didnt know they were that bad, whats yours got in it? He replied with holden power brother..all the way, so i said oh right so thats definitely not nissans RB30 which has the same block that im running race prepped on MY 'shitty' nissan engine? He looked at his mate and was like i dont even know what your talking about dickhead you dont know shit this holden would flog your shitty import, i just replied with oh okay, it was fairly open going on to the freeway and we got a another red light i ignored them trying their hardest for a race we finally hit a 100 zone which i knew was coming up we both came out of the corner doing 40ks...they started accelerating from behind again and could tell he was on it hard i casually smacked it back into 2nd the car popped out a bit so i hit it into 3rd stuck my thumb down out the window and watched them disappear i backed off when i realized they werent exactly catching up, with lost pride they snuck back a few rows behind me

i count down from 3 n let them just go for it hahaha

I'm thinking of a soarer next, have only ever driven a laggy tt 1jz and was fairly turned off, but thinking the v8 might be a bit of a nice "muscly" cruiser, certainly freaking cheap, insanely well equipped and sound (or can sound) amazing!!

I have only been in a 1j soarer as well. From what i remember it just had exhaust and intake mods, with a slight boost increase. It was an auto (do they come manual?) and was quite laggy, which im sure was probably the auto/long gear combination. Either way once it got on song it went very nicely. The one i went in was a toyota version, not the lexus, but it was still pretty damn luxurious and spacious inside. The guy that owned it went on to do some more mods and it ran 12s if i remember right. Spewing i didnt get to go in it at that stage.

    • As discussed in the previous post, the bushes in the 110 needed replacing. I took this opportunity to replace the castor bushes, the front lower control arm, lower the car and get the alignment dialled in with new tyres. I took it down to Alignment Motorsports on the GC to get this work done and also get more out of the Shockworks as I felt like I wasn't getting the full use out of them.  To cut a very long story short, it ended up being the case the passenger side castor arm wouldn't accept the brand new bush as the sleeve had worn badly enough to the point you could push the new bush in by hand and completely through. Trying a pair of TRD bushes didn't fix the issue either (I had originally gone with Hardrace bushes). We needed to urgently source another castor arm, and thankfully this was sourced and the guys at the shop worked on my car until 7pm on a Saturday to get everything done. The car rides a lot nicer now with the suspension dialled in properly. Lowered the car a little as well to suit the lower profile front tyres, and just bring the car down generally. Eternally thankful for the guys down at the shop to get the car sorted, we both pulled big favours from our contacts to get it done on the Saturday.  Also plugged in the new Stedi foglights into the S15, and even from a quick test in the garage I'm keen to see how they look out on the road. I had some concerns about the length of the LED body and whether it'd fit in the foglight housing but it's fine.  I've got a small window coming up next month where I'll likely get a little paint work done on the 110 to remove the rear wing, add a boot wing and roof wing, get the side skirt fixed up and colour match the little panel on the tail lights so that I can install some badges that I've kept in storage. I'm also tempted to put in a new pair of headlights on the 110.  Until then, here's some more pictures from Easter this year. 
    • I would put a fuel pressure gauge between the filter and the fuel rail, see if it's maintaining good fuel pressure at idle going up to the point when it stalls. Do you see any strange behavior in commanded fuel leading up to the point when it stalls? You might have to start going through the service manual and doing a long list of sensor tests if it's not the fuel system for whatever reason.
    • Hi,  Just joined the forum so I could share my "fix" of this problem. Might be of use to someone. Had the same hunting at idle issue on my V36 with VQ35HR engine after swapping the engine because the original one got overheated.  While changing the engine I made the mistake of cleaning the throttle bodies and tried all the tricks i could find to do a throttle relearn with no luck. Gave in and took it to a shop and they couldn't sort it. Then took it to my local Nissan dealership and they couldn't get it to idle properly. They said I'd need to replace the throttle bodies and the ecu probably costing more than the car is worth. So I had the idea of replacing the carbon I cleaned out with a thin layer of super glue and it's back to normal idle now. Bit rough but saved the car from the wreckers 🤣
    • After my last update, I went ahead with cleaning and restoring the entire fuel system. This included removing the tank and cleaning it with the Beyond Balistics solution, power washing it multiple times, drying it thoroughly, rinsing with IPA, drying again with heat gun and compressed air. Also, cleaning out the lines, fuel rail, and replacing the fuel pump with an OEM-style one. During the cleaning process, I replaced several hoses - including the breather hose on the fuel tank, which turned out to be the cause of the earlier fuel leak. This is what the old fuel filter looked like: Fuel tank before cleaning: Dirty Fuel Tank.mp4   Fuel tank after cleaning (some staining remains): Clean Fuel Tank.mp4 Both the OEM 270cc and new DeatschWerks 550cc injectors were cleaned professionally by a shop. Before reassembling everything, I tested the fuel flow by running the pump output into a container at the fuel filter location - flow looked good. I then fitted the new fuel filter and reassembled the rest of the system. Fuel Flow Test.mp4 Test 1 - 550cc injectors Ran the new fuel pump with its supplied diagonal strainer (different from OEM’s flat strainer) and my 550cc injectors using the same resized-injector map I had successfully used before. At first, it idled roughly and stalled when I applied throttle. Checked the spark plugs and found that they were fouled with carbon (likely from the earlier overly rich running when the injectors were clogged). After cleaning the plugs, the car started fine. However, it would only idle for 30–60 seconds before stalling, and while driving it would feel like a “fuel cut” after a few seconds - though it wouldn’t fully stall. Test 2 – Strainer swap Suspecting the diagonal strainer might not be reaching the tank bottom, I swapped it for the original flat strainer and filled the tank with ~45L of fuel. The issue persisted exactly the same. Test 3 – OEM injectors To eliminate tuning variables, I reinstalled the OEM 270cc injectors and reverted to the original map. Cleaned the spark plugs again just in-case. The stalling and “fuel cut” still remained.   At this stage, I suspect an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, caused during the cleaning process. This has led me to look into getting Frenchy’s fuel hanger and replacing the unit entirely. TL;DR: Cleaned and restored the fuel system (tank, lines, rail, pump). Tested 550cc injectors with the same resized-injector map as before, but the car stalls at idle and experiences what feels like “fuel cut” after a few seconds of driving. Swapped back to OEM injectors with original map to rule out tuning, but the issue persists. Now suspecting an intermittent power or connection fault at the fuel pump hanger, possibly cause by the cleaning process.
