I am chasing a cheap as chips GTR drivers seat for my Silvia. The cheaper the better. Not too fussy about condition seeing as my car is haggard Cheers, Ben.

and most of us live our lives a quarter mile at a time. they have corners at powercruise

fark...I would hit that with Poland! You saw her thumb? Are you feeling ok Jez?

I am going to investigate cleaning the injectors. Fuel pressure is good to the filter, I haven't tested after the reg yet but will do tomorrow. I think I may have spotted a leak from one of the fuel lines where it connects to the filter. Either the hose has a small split or the filter has a crack. Ignition timing is factory. kitto: starter motor cranking signal wire is connected and working.

Thanks kitto, I will double check starter motor cranking wire.

Thanks Bsa. I will try that tomorrow. Thankfully my ECU is custom mounted and I have no interior so accessing it is easy

No, factory BOV, fuel rail, fuel reg, injectors and all other associated piping with the exception of the intercooler piping. All of the emission piping is still there and there are no noticeable vacuum leaks.

the pain is all worthwhile though. Just after I dust a $60k + HSV etc with my $10k import I suddenly feel better.

Thank you for the feedback. I have always been sus on the TPS. I will give the AAC a clean and failing that I will try another TPS

I am hoping someone can shed some light on this problem. RB20DET in S13. Cold start, it is shocking. I have to use the throttle to get the car to start like it is some crappy old carby fed car from the 70's. Even with throttle it takes a few goes to get it to run. When warm the car sometimes stalls out when returning to idle as I pull up at lights/stop sign/etc. The engine is stock with the only mods being a FMIC, 3" exhaust with high flow CAT and a pod filter. ECU is a Blitz remapped factory item. Cold start has always been an issue but is now worse then ever. Stalling out when returning to idle was initially a problem but was solved by running a better earth to the GTR in-tank fuel pump. Over the last 12 months it has got worse. The engine was recently treated to some fresh oil, new plugs, new pod filter and the AFM was cleaned. Fuel filter is only 12 months old. As a side note, I do believe the alternator to be suspect, when turning headlights on at idle the car almost stalls initially and is more prone to stalling out when returning to idle. Coilpacks were tested 2 weeks ago and were performing well. Injectors and fuel reg are both 22 year old factory items. Suggestions welcomed. Cheers, Ben.

In!

Hey Noel, November 17 is a Thursday.

Hey Ian, I should be able to make the pushed back date. I will call you once I know for sure. Cheers, Ben.

What colour are the S13 doors?

sounds like a perfect Friday at work to me! enjoy that

Thanks for the heads up. I will keep an eye out. My Silvia is often in Salisbury so I will be careful. It is usually a very quiet suburb particularly at night. It almost seems like someone may have known the car was going to be there.

bugger. I am so keen but alas I am already booked in for a Germanic feast at the Black Forest Restaurant on Wednesday! Count me in for the next one though. Zum Kaiser is not bad. Not as good as Black Forest though. (LINK)

Ah, the agony of choice. What happened with those 2 jobs you got offered?

Don't bother then, just get it

hmmm. i am currently sleeping on a couch and freezing to death each night because i have no blanket. what is up for grabs?

I could go some Lagavulin 16 about now

I haven't seen any R34's in Salisbury for ages. I have seen a two R32 GTR's though. One is local and one seems to be a friend.

that is def the same car.

congrats Andrew! where abouts is the new job?

I actually find it hard to understand Apple and I find their logic to be flawed. But with enough playing around I can managed to make Apple products work easier then the PC alternatives. Sad to say. I am a PC diehard. I hate Apple!
