Here's the GTR on the weekend wearing some different boots (Enkie RP02 and RE55s) and showing off the CSC brakes.

LOOKS noice mate.

although it is a little naked now without the advertising :lol:

And where was your lazy backside lastnight mate, i made it to Marks so why didn't you ;)

UPDATE

All parts have finally turned up and ready for the HUGE weekend ahead of me to get the car back on the road.

SOLD PFC to Mark for his race car but bought a few little GFB's for the little ol Rb20 thumper :)

Pics will come and also progress on build

Cheers GMB

sav man - Yeah I am, but there will alway be another GTR sooner rather than latter. May just a as a nice roadie instead.

grandmasterb - I was finishing the putting up the $3000 fence at the new house. How can powercoated tube be so expensive?

I like it without the stickers, looks a bit more stealthy!

hey guys, im pretty new to the forum. i own a R33 series 1. got it freshly imported in november last year. it's currently maroon, but im just waiting on the Trial body kit to arive so i can do a full respray on it. im going for a bayside blue, maybe a bit darker. the car was stock when i bought it, and so far i have put on 17" mags, 3" mandral bent zorst, front mount, k and n filter, turbo smart boost controller, autometer bost guage and volt guage, Rockford Fosgate sound system, playstation 2, 7" screen. currently having boost problems, and when it's under boost the car runs really jerky and crap.

lol sounds bad dude but i dont know much about cars so u migth b lucky :rolleyes:

but still sounds like a nice car where bouts u situated have i seen it a lil bit out of ridgley or probably some one else :) lol even though thats brown...

Could be any number of problems mate.

Start with the most common problems:

dirty AFM

fouled plug

crook coil/s or ignitor

boost leak (if its only under load)

blocked fuel pump or faulty fuel pump.

Start by trying to elimante a few of them first.

Im sure that someone in your area can give you a hand with it if you get stuck at all :)

GOOD LUCK

GMB

I got a nice package in the mail today :(

my new old HKS GT2530's. One needs a new core, so i'm taking it in to get looked at on Monday.

:lol: mate its old, i have read it already!!!

How much boost are you trying to run, if everything else is ok, you may be hitting the boost limitter. Don't try and run anymore than 12 psi with a "stock everything else" ( turbo, ecu, etc ). If you wan't more (everyone wan'ts more) you'll need to upgrade your ecu, then your turbo, then your fuel systm.... etc and so forth........... or you could just run gas :-)

Back in black! My Skyline is back on the road again! you couldnt wipe the grin from my face with a wild badger :P what a mission, 4 12 hr days, tell you what - I wont be doing that again in a hurry...

Still have a few teething troubles, hicas light is on (I think I know what that might be - search button you're my hero) and I have one hose which is not quite on properly (water line down the back of the engine - need a reaaaaly long set of needle nose pliers)

I am just taking it easy on the replacement engine for a few days, its hard, I saw a little boost last night on my lap around the block, the car is going "lets go" im crying "dont tempt me!"

Hope to see you all on the blacktop sometime soon! Incidently do you guys know of an good roads near hobart (other than over mt wellington and grasstree) - all while obaying speed limits and being safe of course.

Sump for ANIMAL has been ordered and hopefully make it from Japan in time for the April weekend.

Blue Beast is up 4 SALE and so is the race car.

Looking for a job at the moment so if anyone know's of something going that may suit me or just pays the big bucks then it would be much appreciated if you could let me know :(

GMB

i found out what the problem was with my engine, the circuits for the throttle posistion sensor in the ecu was stuffed, so im just saving up for a PFC.

:( DOH...

bet that took a little while to find, would of been one of the last things i would of checked as well from your first discription.

I maybe able to help you out with a price on PFC so PM and let me know!!!

    • @Murray_Calavera  If I were an expert I wouldn't be in here looking for assistance.  I am extremely computer literate, have above average understanding on how things should be working and how they should tie together.  If I need to go to a professional tuner so be it, but I'd much rather learn and do things myself even if it means looking for some guidance along the way and blowing up a few engines. @GTSBoy  I was hoping it would be as simple as a large vacuum leak somewhere but I'm unable to find anything, all lines seem to be well capped or going where they need to be, and when removed there is vacuum felt on the tube.  It would be odd for the Haltech built in MAP to be faulty, the GTT tune I imported had it enabled from the start, I incorrectly assumed it was reading a signal from the stock MAP, but that doesn't exist.  After running a vacuum hose to the ECU the signal doesn't change more than 0.2 in either direction.   I'll probably upload a video of my settings tomorrow, as it stands I'm able to daily drive, but getting stuttering when giving it gas from idle, so pulling away from lights is a slow process of revving it up and feathering the clutch until its moving, then it will accelerate fine.  It sounds like I need to get to the bottom of the manifold pressure issue, but the ignition timing section is most intimidating to me and will probably let a pro do that part.  Tomorrow I'll try a different vacuum line to T off of, with any luck I selected one that was already bypassed during the DBW swap. @feartherb26  I do have +T in the works but wanted to wait until Spring to start with that swap since this is my good winter AWD vehicle.  When removing the butterfly, did it leave a bunch of holes in the manifold that you needed to plug?  I thought about removing it but assumed it would be a mess.   I notice no difference when capping the vacuum line to it or letting it do its thing.  This whole thing has convinced me to just get a forward facing manifold when the time comes though.
    • Update: tested my spark plugs that are supposed to be 5ohms with a 10% deviation and one gave me a 0 ohms reading and the rest were 3.9ohm<, so one bad and the others on their way out.
    • 9" wheels are a little too wide for a RWD 32. They can fit. People have put R33 GTR wheels on 32s for years and years. But they are a very tight squeeze. This has been known for about 30 years. As I said - there is no difference between a 17 and an 18 in terms of what will fit. The rolling diameter needs to stay about the same as stock - not very much larger. If you increase that, you will start to have problems. If you increae rolling diamater at the same time as yo increase width, you will have problems earlier. as 9" wheels are pushing the boundaries already, you would need to be careful with tyre choice. I would put 8.5s on the front of mine, but would expect problems with 9s.
    • post up screen shots of your injector tables
    • Diagnostic flow for a code 21 says check signal at the ECU pins, on a voltmeter of some kind it should read 0.1V at idle, 0.12V cranking, 0.15-0.25V at 2000 rpm. Check each coil such that +1, -3 is infinite or very high resistance, -3, +2 should do the same. (-1, +3), (+3, -2), (+1, -2), and (-1, +2) should all be somewhere between 0 ohms and high resistance. If you trace the path from the coil pin all the way back to the ECU in the diagram the resistance you measure at the coil vs connected to the harness should be pretty much the same.
