Ah ok, I called a while back and they told me that. From memory I couldn't see anything in the PDS but I called just to ask questions.
-
Because it is financially convenient for them lol. Why wouldn't they want to give you the lowest possible valuation for your car?
-
Yep. @Duncan also shannons they will rip you dry and will be probably limited on how much you can drive. Also keep in mind that you always have to have it garaged with Shannons, with enthusiasts as per their PDS you can have it 2 times per week on the driveway for example.
-
Yep that makes sense, thanks! I guess flogging these turbos in winter is more preferrable lol.
-
From what I remember, the rb20 turbos can take a bit more boost than the rb25det engines? Thought I read that somewhere for some reason.
-
I imagine the procedure is the same for the rb25det neo, except only difference being is the 2 air release plugs to bleed the coolant instead of one?
-
Welcome! How much psi were you pushing I'm curious if you've blown 2 turbos? I was overboosting at one stage and went over 14-15 psi, surprised I didn't blow it right then lol.

A little PU bush story
silviaz replied to GTSBoy's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
I'm keen for this content to 😂 -
Ah yep. I asked a auto electrician about getting a cheap rebuilt alternator vs a new one. He also said he used to it back in the day but it ended up costing similar to what a new one would and recommended getting a new one,.

Will I Need A Retune After Cahanging My Catalytic Converter ?
silviaz replied to Tweaky's topic in General Maintenance
Ah, to clarify if the car has already been tuned and has been modified and you want to go from a oem cat to a 100 cell or decat or vice versa.Are you saying that the car doesn't need to be tuned after a cat change if it's already been tuned? -
Is rebuilding it even a thing? Where would the shop find parts for it? I looked at some off these local online stores for my r34 and suprisingly they had brand new aftetmarket ones for $600-800 I think. I guess r32 might be a bit tougher.

Will I Need A Retune After Cahanging My Catalytic Converter ?
silviaz replied to Tweaky's topic in General Maintenance
Does it make a difference in your turbo having a shorter life if you have a cat converter as it causes that back pressure versus less/no back pressure with a decat? (Not sure if this is accurate) Also slightly different question if you went from a oem cat to a decat or vice versa will it require a tune? I heard if you change the dump pipe onwards it requires a tune? -
Not sure if this helps but I had a similar issue where one of the doors wouldn't lock unless I pressed the lock key twice. Turns out the door actuators were f**ked. In the Nissan service book it says to lube it every now and again, I guess put a bit a bit of wd-40. I replaced mine and haven't had a problem since.
-
When you say basic rebuild, you mean an oem rebuild?
-
Ah ok, yeah it should be flat, I believe the r34 battery tray has these 3 bumps in them they makes it line up and everything is flat, don't see how it would tilt if everything is secured.
-
If I get a larger battery and it hangs off the edge of the frame rail, would this be an issue? With FMIC a lot of people downgrade their battery size due to less room for shit, was wondering if it would affect anything but it would still be tight via the clamp.
-
Ah right that makes sense.
-
I did some research, considering you have a neo engine, how is that battery compatible? I checked centuries website and super cheap and says it's not compatible. Only this full size one is. https://www.centurybatteries.com.au/products/ns60-mf
-
Not sure what you mean haha. That one doesn't fit mine but when I get sick of my one I'll get a standard one. I just gotta find a way to make it fit cause some shit is in the way.
-
Small update took it to an auto electrician and said all was normal, the power draw was normal and it was a bit of everything but nothing to concern with. Apparently my battery is ok, but because it's a smaller size battery instead of the oem size one, it might cause me issues. Looks like if there is a solution here I might need to upgrade to a bigger battery.

R32gtr sputtering and stalling

Ah ok interesting to know. -

Ah ok, for example for the apexi ecu I heard that it's pretty limited with the information it can give you. Also not sure why Nissan used the consult port over the obd2, what the idea there was. -

How do you go about diagnosing ecu's that don't have data logging, is it more experience at that point and just trying out things that you think will fix the issue? -
Yeah was thinking that. I've had the car go lower idle possibly around 650rpm every once in a long time after pouring fuel and would sound quite rough like a misfire, almost like it's shit fuel or something but who knows.
-
I noticed something. On the tps sensor and the sensor behind the adjustment screw is adjusted towards the far left. Are these screws supposed to be centered? (this sensor was in the same position before the tune as well) Also attached a photo of where my car usually idles at when warm (sometimes a tiny bit above that). I think I might have screwed up the calculation and it might have better than I thought lol at 750rpm still not 650rpm though.
