Now i know this isnt a skyline but ive been on the site for a while because well i really wanted a skyline but will still own one when im older but for now this is what i brought myself.

Hey guys this is my newly aquired 1984 Series 3 RX7 with a 13B Turbo from a series 4.

Here are the features of the car.

Engine: EFI, fully electronic ignition, boost cut defender, High HP fuel system, Port machined manifolds, Modified Hitachi turbo and waste gate control (14psi), Mazfixc solid steel lightened flywheel, Mazfix XHD clutch, JAP performance turbo manifold, 3" mandrel bent exhaust, cold air intake with 3" K&N cone filter, custom high capacity sump, Series 4 front mount oil cooler, Series 3 5 speed gearbox and 26 spline diff (3.9 + 4.11 gears)

Interior: Power windows, power mirrors, air con, cruise control, Cd/mp3 player, flat bottom steering wheel, custom alloy gearknob, autometer pro-comp boost gauge, LED Mixture lights.

Exterior: Tinted Windows, 15" B45 simmon's wheels, front spoiler, lowered suspension, original series 3 ltd paint scheme.

I have a few plans, first upgrade brakes and possibly suspension, Then get the mags fixed so they sit inside the guards and then some engine work (but its quick enough now). Previous owner said the car runs 13.4 1/4 mile on street tires. However i think it could go faster. Think thats about it, very happy with the car and i am sure to keep it for a long time

    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
    • No, code 21 is very straightforward. It can only be the things described in that diagnostic flow. In fact it has no way of knowing that the spark plug resistance is out of spec.
