Well it was better wasn't it... and proabbly with a different tuen it'll get better. How did it sound?

your right about the tune , but i wont be bothering for a while now . you see i hurt the motor . now smokey at high revs and using oil .How did it sound ? Wish i had taped it , it sounded great , nothing like the sound of a twin cam at full song , lots of induction roar and the open extractors screamin , luv it .

As for the engine , i have another rb30 block which i will freshen up and put under it .

that sucks that your car has broken. im building the same motor. anyway that i can get some specs of what parts you used and the cost to get the head modifyd to fit the block?

*edit* i just found your old thred with the specs of what you did. good work. im gona probly be spending 800-1000 on my head tidying it up and replacing bent valves and getting the vvt set up to work

did you get the chance to dyno it?

thanks, and good luck with fixing it

UM I not too sure whats goin on with the engine . its not using oil , even tho it has smoked a couple of time at high revs . in fact the oil level has stayed constant in last 500 km since it last smoked . also one of the breather hoses isnt hooked up .

maybe i was being bit of an alarmist ,

this weekend am going to do a compression test .

apart from all that it seems to be going as strong as ever .

oh yeah did i tell you that i bought another skyline .

well it was cheap a 5 speed series 3 r31 WAGON , ( yeah go the wagons ) and its powder blue , nice boy colour lol

damn!!!

i wish i could find ones like that

all the ones that i see for sale are auto's and heaps of sh!t

how cheap was cheap???

$950 and has perfect body and interior , would you believe i havent seen it yet . bought it off ebay in NSW , friends down there checked it out for me. its coming up on a transporter next week .

Woah dude that looks very clean, especially the engine. What are your plans for this car?

As the body of my red wagon is reaching its use by date , will transfer the good gear across to the " NEW " blue one . It will be a sleeper , keeping it absolutely stock on the exterior , standard wheels suspension and ride hieght . Should even keep the standard hubcaps on .

you should HPC coat those extractors, get heat wrap, wrap them and after that make up a stainless heatsheild  :D

this will give you the coolest intake temps possible  :O

YEP GOOD IDEA , will probly wrap them

    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
    • Hi All, putting the engine back together and everything is perfect except have this plug left over.. any ideas what it is for and where it goes? Is on cold side under the intake plenum *note not a stock plug, as everything has been modified Cheers
    • Sounds like a misfire. Check fuel pressure and don't even think about going into boost while it's like this unless you enjoy engine rebuilds.
