Hi all,
I thought I would introduce myself and my skyline.
Sorry for the bad pic.
Skylines were always my favorite Japanese sports car, my bunky old XF kept breaking down and I needed a change. I got settled into my new job and then I wanted a Skyline!
I had a look at what was on the market and I wasn't impressed, I looked around some more and after a few months I settled on [RDIRTY3]. This is my first HPV and I am in love with it.
Current Mods:
Intake
○ Front mount intercooler
○ Apexi filter in heat shield
○ Cold air intake from front bar

I have been busy tinkering with it since early this year, installing some sound, tidying up the wiring, upgrading the brakes, 3 inch dump and cat and now tuning it with Nistune.
I am running a Z32 ECU with a Nistune Type 2. I modded the ECU for direct plug in to a R33.
The stock RB25 maps were uploaded to the ECU as a base. It ran perfectly just like stock, cold start and everything worked as normal, except that I can tune the car in realtime with nothing but a laptop and a usb cable. I use a Motec PLM to read the tune, which also feeds Nistune the lambda readings. I also want to setup the boost gauge to feed into Nistune so I can log boost to tune a boost controller when I get one.
The inside still needs a bit of a tidy and the drive train needs a bit of work but otherwise she is a dream.
Peace out,
Laz
