RTFGTR

Got bigger problems now.... Gave it a good fang on Friday night and seem to have droped oil rings on 1 and 3 cos I put new plugs in yestersday and they are already fowled and blowing white smoke through all the gears. Boost is not a problem and have good compression in all but oil on top of 1 and 3 pistons (can see it when looking down into spark hole) so now need professional help (replace PFC and get oil rings replaced... then sell) Anyway... kicked ass on the fang (Wrx & VR commo) when I droped the rings (it must have been that cos it was running sweet before) straight after... Farked!

Still got a line... for now anyway until I get the PFC fixed and a few other things done. Will keep an eye out for a good event or meet in the next few weeks and come along. You still have meetings every month in Sth Melb.? My GTR is looking worse for ware at the moment also so I'm shy about bringing it out in public. Still got a nice shiner down the passenger door and rear 1/4 panel. Fixing soon. Also good to hear from you Adz

Got a new'ish loom from a R33 GTR installed the other day... same issue. Now with standard ECU reving all the way through to 8500+ without any issues except heaps of black smoke - this is something that did not happen with the Power FC even when it was working 100% and I could use all the RPM's.

just out of interest... anyone seen this.... http://www.cvcoupling.com/

I'm quite sure now they are different even though the connetors are the same. Regards,

Will try to get there... was meant to go down the beach tonight after work with friends

I will get a friend of mine to have a look tonight, but I would not have a clue about electronics and what not... He is pretty good with that sort of stuff. Paul.... have you come across PFC misfire issues such as I described above? I was always thinking it was my ignition coils but the seem fine now?

How and did you do it yourself? Is it an easy fix? It seems that putting in the GTS-T igniter pack done the damage... but seriously, now I have the standard re-mapped ECU in I have also fixed the misfire problem cos I can rev all the way under load to 8900rpm without a problem. Where before with the PFC as sson as I hit about 6000rpm it started missing and overboosting... probably not making as much power now but at least I can use all the REVs. Cars back up for sale as this dude is asking for a new PFC and dyno run when he contributed to the F8ck up and pushing on the sale price so I told him my final offer as is or $xx,xxx with the new ECU and dyno run to confirm last results of 367rwkw. And he has said no...

Turns out that I have fried my Power FC (long story) and thats why I'm not getting any spark to #4. I have replaced it with my original (re-mapped) unit that I still had in my garage and it's running sweet - probably not making 370kw at the wheels anymore but its running on all 6. I now have a GTR igniter pack that I do not need that I paid $190.00 for if anyone wants one. I will sell for $100 I know this will get moved - saves me staring a new thread in the for sale section. Please change headding to "GTR Igniter Pack for Sale"

Hi Bec, James and Paul. It's a shame the line needs to go... woman’s hard word and just the general running costs of such a car have all caught up with me. I can no longer live in fantasy land and expect to run a GTR as a daily driver without forking out huge amounts of cash in regular intervals, those intervals just seem to be getting closer and closer every time + I have been pulled over 4 times in the last 2 months - no traffic infringements for any them just the usual bum rush and fines associated. So I decided to let it go and might get another later this year just as a weekender... got my eye on a nice one on J-Spec... but that will most probably go by the time I'm ready for another. Good times had with you guys, shame I did not get back into the SAU thing once my car was back on the road. Melbourne GP Autosalon was a drunken haze for at least 2 of the 4 days I was there. Great event and people to be with, still have not got any shots of me with the models when I was passed out in my car... beginning to think it was all just a rumour (that’s what I'm telling myself) Suppose this might be a goodbye post to a certain extent... so, I will take this opportunity to thank all that have helped me out over the years as I got this car with 0 that’s zero experience in regards to Skylines or GTR's (never even been for a drive in one) but the day mine landed in Oz I was almost ready for the experience as if I had owned one before. Anyway, three years later I now can pull apart most of my car and put it back together again, drive a whole lot better and unfortunately also know most of the VIC roads by laws and EPA requirements inside out. Regards, Robin

Will be picking up from Racingline today. Topic closed.

Will be picking up today from Racingline. ActionDan - will let you know if it does not fix problem then you can have it. Thanks

Hi, Hello to all that remember me. It’s been a while... I hope someone local can help me out? To cut a long story short, I have sold my GTR (pending issue is resolved) but I have been getting ignition problems at high boost for quite a while now. I was showing a customer my car and was getting these boost issues and he had a spare set of ignition coils and a wiring loom from a R33 GTR.... so we changed it over and the same issue was still present. So we changed the igniter pack also but could not get the car started. Turns out that the igniter pack was from a GTS-T and the earth pins are in different locations. So, my igniter pack is now well and truly stuffed cos I can’t get spark from #4 at all and have tried two sets of wiring looms and coil packs all with the same issue. I have located a spare igniter pack in NSW from just jap for $200. Nissan want close to $800. Does anyone local have a spare one sitting in their garage? I will collect and pay today if anyone can help me out. Sorry to jump on the forum again only to ask for such things, but its the best tool available to me. I have also posted in the Vic section. See ya,
