yeah, thats what i was thinking, there could be a problem with the map in it..

No doubt your tune is saved so why dont you just try putting another base tune on it to get it fired up???

UPDATES FOR ME: 1/4 window fitted thanks to Matt @ Highway Crash Repairs, new oil cooler core purchased (thanks JUST JAP) and on its way so all thats left is a Z32, install new SABER gauges (thanks to FLYNN PERFORMANCE) and coils (thanks BENSON MOTORSPORTS) and its ready for a tune :P

Oh and new set of Proxes 4's ordered (thanks to Hamish @ REVOLUTION)

Fresh(er) RB20DET (from R32) fitted, GT-R injectors, AFM and Nistune...injector o-rings leaking so back apart to fix those, blanked off knackered cold start regulator. Need to get wideband on to start tuning it as currently it just idles at about 2500rpm and dies when you touch the throttle.

Also chucked in 3" split dump/front pipe, all redtop covers on silvertop RB20, ISC 10/8kg S13 coilovers, 17x9/17x10 meisters and waiting on my rotors to be redrilled so I can chuck my R33 4 pots on the front. 11 row greddy-copy oil cooler kit to go on.

Still need a shifter as mine went walkabout while the car was stored at a certain workshop which is now defunct...

Also yet to order front mount and new front bar, but will be soon.

33 - had a flat yesterday and who knows where the locking key has gone... vice grips to the rescue!

rx7 - the dust is growing thicker by the day, but paul is now back from japan so hopefully we'll have an engine ready for it soon

lancer - coming together, just need a clutch, some more white paint and time to keep swapping parts from shell to shell!

Waiting on a brake seal kit and a clutch line to get my car regoed.

Something else is bound to go wrong as everything that could go wrong has gone wrong, but its practically a new car now as ive replaced nearly every nut and bolt in it!

Picked up the 32 this morning after getting the 1/4 window fitted. It will do for now but cant say im impressed with the finished job so once the car is tuned it will be going somewhere else to be done again.

I just pray that it doesn't break :D

  • 2 weeks later...

well finaly got my hands on hold of a R34 PFC and some split fires, getting 040 on pay day as well, on the look for a boost controller duel stage or EBC, then to hobart for tune and finally get the body kit fitted :huh:

I had Sam (Dr Drift) tune my car on his dyno the week before power cruise.

So I'm now running a fully tuned PowerFC with optional boost controller, Z32, Splitfire Coil packs, 550cc Injectors and a HKS GT-RS :D Cant wait for the weather to get cool for some more ponies!

I'm also running no front bar due to an incident with a guard rail in the wet :D:down:

Jase, got a link to this ECU?? I read a bit about it in the Stag section but still vague on it. And is yours a S1 or S2? We have $2.7k coming from Uncle Kev soon..... :blush: Might be an option for, ummmm, fuel economy? :D

Cheers, Greg.

Looks great Ian, i hope you keep this one for a little while and enjoy :(

My car is ready/waiting to be tuned so hopefully i can sell it soon so i can start my new project....

    • So stock ECU does not like anything above 10 psi?  That Nistune one is just for "try" if it will be any different, I know it need to be tune for that. I know but YOU may know about these problem but i/we dont. They few little Skylines here let alone people who know anything about tham so that is why iam asking here  
    • So now we have a radiator with no attachments whatsoever. It lifts up with a particularly tight spot between the drivers side air box mount and the lower radiator outlet, but if you've got this far you will sort that too. This is the lower mounts with the rad out so you can see where the rubber bushes go, it is a straight shot upwards Done! Assembly is the reverse of disassembly, with blood less likely to be shed.
    • Right, onto the second last trick. The Air Con condenser is mounted to the front of the radiator and stays in the car when the radiator is removed. There are 2x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the condenser to the radiator, remove those The bottom of the condenser is attached to the radiator with clips. You need to lift the condenser out of those clips and clear (up, then forward). f**ked if  could work out how to do that last bit with the front bumper on. I hope you can, and you share the trick.  Bumper removal probably deserves its own thread one day once I've recovered the will to live, but basically you need to remove the wheels, front inner guard liners (clips and 10mm headed bolts), the self tapper between the guard and the bumper at the rearmost point of the bumper (same as an R32 that bit), any remaining clips at the top/front of the grill, an absolute bastard design with a plate that holds the top of the bumper above the headlight each side (only 1 bolt which is tricky to get to, but the plate catches 2 places on the bumper and must be removed....carefully!) and push clips between the bumper and guard under the headlight. If you've done all that you will be faced with wiring for the fog lights on both sides and in ADM Q50 RS at least, 4 nasty tight plugs on the driver's side for the ADAS stuff. So, the clips at the bottom look like this on drivers side (looking from the front) And on the passenger side (also from the front), you can see this one is already out Clearance on both of these are super tight; the condenser needs to move up but the upper rad support mount prevents that, and the radiator can't move down far because it is (rubber) mounted. Once you achieve the impossible and drop the condenser off those mounts so it does not stop the rad moving, you are good to go
    • OK, next the shroud needs to come off and there are a couple of tricks. Firstly, there is a loom from near the passenger side headlight to the fans, coolant temp sensor etc and there is no plug to undo.  In my case I was OK to leave the shroud on top of the engine so I just undid the passenger side fan plug and about 10 of the clips which gave enough free wire to put it aside. The fan plugs were super tight, the trick I used was a small falt screwdriver to push down on the release tab, then a larger flat screwdriver to lever the plug out of the fan unit....be careful with how much force you apply! If you need to remove the shroud altogether for some reason you will have to deal with all the plugs (tight) and clips (brittle)....good luck. I removed all of the clips and replaced them with cable ties that I will just cut next time. Also, in the Red Sport / 400R at least, the intake heat exchanger reservoir hose is bolted to the shroud in 2 places with 10mm headed bolts; so remove them (the hose stays in the car; no need to undo it at the t fittings down at the radiator lower mount. Once you've dealt with the HX hose and the wiring loom, there are 3x 10mm headed self tappers holding the top of the shroud to the radiator; remove those.   The shroud then lifts out of the bottom mounts where it sits on the radiator, up and onto the engine out of the way. Simples
    • Ok, disregard my “rate them” comment, sorry for my unrealistic input
