Trailers, mmm I think we will build one, see exact costing and go from there. I only want a very very basic one. No tyre rack etc. Will be around end of the year I reckon before we look at building on

Like everything is an inch thick in grime, should have really taken to it with a pressure washer first, but meh too late now.

can tell a butcher has been working on it though, that many stripped bolt heads over tightened bolts.. my temper is limited haha!

hopefully its going again tomorrow if burson's is open and i can get the last few things i need.

Will be fun to drive the old girl again and even more fun when its wearing the old LCA's and coilovers from my silvia.

Would love to throw an S13 rack in it also to get rid of bump steer, but im not quite that enthusiastic just yet.

Had my R31 tuned at Dr Drift's yesterday, 240 @ 13.5psi, 255 @ 15.5psi & 265 @ 19.5psi.

thats not bad, not bad at all! what kind of setup are u running in the R31? last tune i had (will not mention by who :domokun: ) was dissapointing and only reached 250rwkw @15psi . I know it is capable of more with the existing mods but was given more excuses yet again, so thats why i was waiting for Dr. Drift to come down, i didnt think he was coming till the end of the month? suppose i have missed him again???.......!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm in Melb at the moment. Not much in the way of mods, TD06 and that's about it. Rb25 doesn't even have VCT.

He will be in launceston in a couple of weeks.

got the seats in, spacers on and ps pump changed today. car is now going again.

all that is left is pod filter, mount battery, modify cooler piping, longer studs up front and fit speedo sender. (oh and chase a rattle in the rear that is shitting me!)

then it is ready to put on the market properly! actually starting to be quite a nice car, might even change my mind and keep it for a little while.

here are a few pics of the car

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
