T.

I had a R32 GTSt weighed by shipping company, it was 1250kg, but when I took it in to get it weighed (with another 40L of fuel) on a weighbridge it was 1340kg or so, so its slightly low. (Btw, thats without me in car)

i guess im abit biased but i would choose the s14 for performance as out of the factory (although the R33 may have better figures on paper) I think the 200sx is quicker than an r33. Im sure theres going to be some debate over this but I will leave that to you guys. I would choose the skyline for its roominess though as the s14 backseats cannot fit 2 people comfortably. Looks-wise both look just as good as each other in my opinion but other reasons why i would choose the s14 is for the fuel efficiency and insurance. Alot of power for less fuel :D

These forums are promoting Skylines too much! /me conveniently forgets the point that he's probably the newest Skyline owner on the forum.

just on your point of seeing too many skylines around, i usually see heaps of them when im in convoy :( but besides that I *rarely* see them on the roads however, I'll see a million S15's though :D

curb weight is usually with half tank of fuel, no passengers and no luggage. Basically empty street weight.

Gross weight can either be the car totally empty with no fuel oil or any options/accessories, but can sometime be total weight WITH fuel oil, 2-3 passengers etc.

go with the curb weight, it's what most magazines quote

      spot the stagea

      It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack.

      Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.

      In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).

      ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.

      OK, if it idles at 1000+ with the AAC, its not an idle airflow problem. The cold start valve just gives extra air when the engine is cold, but you have enough air without it to idle at 1000. I think you are back to a fuel problem, sorry. Can you see the fuel pressure staying constant or does it drop as the revs drop to a stall?
