hi ecl.

definitely a totally different kettle of fish! The teg had spoon springs, injen CAI and Trust PE2 exhaust. Not very modded - saying that though the little pocket rocket managed a 121.9kw atw which was quiet impressive compared to stock (roughly 105kw atw). it handled like a dream and the K20A2 in my opinion sounded the goods (most prefer the B18C). i felt i knew the car and what it could do (had an EM1 civic coupe before it).

Jumping into this GTT is hugely different - im still figuring out when the car starts and finishes - its sooo long! can definitely feel the power increase - turbo spools nicely! such a change coming from one of the best handling FWD produced to a rear wheeler with so much power - i think i may need to take a driving course to understand the car better. As soon as my exams are finished i'll be able to spend more time with her and give a better analysis.

Both great cars though - i didnt sell the R to upgrade/downgrade to a skyline - i just dont like owning cars over 75000kms and managed to get a decent price still.

BTW - thanks all for your help re the park lights - sorry for the n00b questions - got the parkers from autobarn today.

Justin

    • Based off what you’ve said here, I think I’ve figured out a good bit of what I’ve done wrong -  So on the line going from the PCV valve to carbon canister, there’s a T joint that is pretty much right next to that lower port - I hadn’t noticed that the hose in the diagram was curved to attach onto the carb, so I was putting that line for the lower port onto the PCV line / carbon canister line instead. I’m going to have a flick through the manual again tomorrow and should hopefully find a diagram that’ll show me where that T joint should be connected to. Timing also 100% needs to be sorted out as well, should be able to tackle that tomorrow as well. Definitely feel like I should be on the right track now though. 
    • The screw is for idle (pilot circuit) mixture adjustment. Else, I'm confused ~ the diagram shows 2 carby ports, and the intake manifold port, but you're suggesting the "2nd port on the back of the carb that isn’t mentioned in the diagrams" ...yet, both carby ports are shown...que?... ...in any event, that port should be connected, but if not (like it is now), it's unlikely to cause a backfire out the carby (it would introduce false air and give you a fast/lean idle) ...sounds more like timing issues/spark plug wire routing responsible for the backfiring.    
    • That's fair, I can see both points. I get enthusiastic when I see the FS section has a new post and want to see what interesting thing someone is selling. Then I get deflated it's a bump of a 10 year old post. Ha ha
    • Couple of litres of moonshine from his southern cousins would do it...
