No! Bad Kiwi! You're supposed to stop him from having to do his own diagnosis!!!!!

Well, in that case, a few truths apply; Buying expensive Jap brand name clutches for low power RB20s doesn't make sense. Most people on SAU are in Australia, therefor most of us would recommend an Extreme or NPC or one of several other local clutch assemblers. These are all Australian businesses, so it would make no sense to recommend one of them to you. Therefore you are reduced to waiting for someone in the US to make a similar recommendation on a clutch supplier in the states that they trust to build good clutches for Jap cars......or you widen your search parameters (away from Skyline specific info sources) and just look at who recommends what shops in the US for similar applications.

Twisting the car's body can definitely crack the windscreen. Did it do it in this case? How can we know?

But you would be very very wrong. There is enough pressure drop across the shitty sidemount for that to be a bad idea. Although it should result in other bad effects, not low boost. I'd seriously be looking for boost & exhaust leaks.

Buy AD08R instead.

Maybe. Definitely. Are you seriously asking if we think you jacking the car up is what caused the windscreen to break, when the windscreen broke as/after you jacked the car up?

What country are you in?

ABS is not rubber. ABS is a hardish plastic like PVC. Anything that is rubber with studs will very likely be genuine.

R32 doesn't have a cabin air filter. Waaay too old for that.

Did you mean retune? If so, then not likely, no. Unless it was tuned on the ragged edge with the spark failing to burn all the fuel. In which case someone would need their arse kicked anyway.

Well, regardless of what the actual problem with the pump is, you cannot make more fuel out of thin air with a rising rate reg.

Follow the wires.....

Don't go LED yet, unless you're willing to experiment and perhaps fail. They're not quite reliably good enough just yet, especially on conventional reflector lamps. Don't put 100W globes in there. Even if you have put a full set of relays in to take the load off the headlight switches (dash binnacle and column dipper), it's not a good idea for the lamps themselves. And if you want to know what type of globe is in your car, pull the bloody thing out and look at it.

Not true. Stock Neo turbo will hold 12 psi to the redline. Mine certainly does.

I would strongly suggest, that like most early automatics, the reverse switch is bundled up with the inhibitor switch in the shifter.

Don't need to see the Nazi staff car or the cruise liner. But more of the Porsche and 280 please.

This (the visual inspection) is worth nothing compared to having a fuel pressure gauge on it when it goes lean. Easier on teh dyno, like Kinkstaah said above.

Your plan is valid. But, be careful about binning the dash. A number of things rely on the speedo generating the speed signal. You'll need workarounds for any of those that are still functioning on the car. You also need the charge light function. Maybe there's a couple of other things too.

Ohhh. I only read "to ditch the auto ECU" and being part of the plan.

Seemed like a fair assumption. Your Accord Coupe says "US model". You are on posting with the army talking about buying a Skyline. There would have to have been 2000 such posts from US army guys on here over the last 20 years. Mostly when they are posted to Japan. And you refer to Skylines as "Sky", which is odd, and the sort of thing we might expect to evolve in a place (like the US) that vaguely knows about Skylines but has been starved of them.

Yes.

Yuh, they will both do the job (although I'm not speaking for the Haltech 2000 specifically. You might or might not need a different model). But what is your plan for a TCU?

I'm also leaning towards fuel pump issue. Not completely dead, but not doing well. Even with the 1 in 10 it works story.

Dirty math using a better estimate of maybe 2-3% where many don't get the treatment that they need to survive.

Now it sounds like a bleeding problem.
