WOW thanks for that I know a heap more than i did before now thanks to you An L28 looks definety like the way to go, plenty of options by the look of it, now ive just gotta find a motor and a car to put it in I've got questions about a c110 but i wont hijack the thread...

excellent thread guys im looking at doing a street-going rally car, suitable as a weekend machine and possibly low level comp rallying car what sort of power can 1 reasonably expect from a worked NA L28 or L24 for that matter? Does the EFI gear/heads off an R30 bolt up to these? time for dumber questions...are these standard as an IRS rear in australian models or live axle?

The distributor is interchangeable i believe, it should be the same or very similar. The comptuer may not be. The part of the computer that controls the fuel pump is different skyline to vl, the skyline has a fully variable fuel pump whilst the VL has a 2 speed pump. Auto/Manual is also different. I tried a Auto VL computer in my Manual Skyline and couldnt get it to start, need to modify the neutral swtich circuit for the auto computer.

spark plug gap for an NA Rb30 is approximately 1mm check TPS (Throttle position switch) in case you bumped it when changing the spark plugs, and for vaccum leaks if you removed any intake piping when charging the plugs

IS that what that is? :idea: it all makes sense now anyway to prevent it from happining?

Might as well add meself in Car: White Series3 GX Year: '89 Purchased: 2 years ago Km: just on 198,000km Cost: 5500 Box: Manual ^^^might seem like a lot for a GX but for the condition it is in very much worth it Mods: not much Cd player thats about it, and replaced original poxy gearknob. Previous owners color coded the body and its already got Ti mags.

yeah ive been meaning to check the timing again for a while now, and after hearing it pinging 2day pulling up a steep hill, second and low rpms, so i took it home and checked it. To my suprise the timing was not at 20, but more like 13-14 degrees doh what else causes pinging? Or makes a softish *clink* *clink* *clink* sound under those driving conditions? Wasnt hot 2day either 10-12 degrees ambient temp... Cazz....yeah I have already done extensive testing on the AFM, when i say air regulator i actaully mean air regulator its stuffed (sorry should have said that it was ok :. Thanks for ur help anyway always appreciated . Thanks everyone for advice/help will 'report' back from service 2moro....hopefully my mechanic mate can shed more light on my issues

R31 POWER Yay! thanks for the heads up. Skyline Boy. Thanks for ur help most appriciated

Ummm I take it ur all city people? Its just taken me over half an hour to read this entire thread and i finially relieased something...Im damn lucky to be livin in the country. Admittingly i dont exactly have a "high performance" vehicle (Stock R31 ) but if i wanna do somthing stupid all i have to do is go out the bush and go nuts for a while, get a bit "too" much sideways, scare the crap out of my self and i drove around slow for the next couple of weeks or so, remembering how close it was until i nearly wrapped it around a tree (its never happened so dont ask ). Until of course the confidence creeps up again, then its back out the bush . Other than that everything said in here is valid one way or another. As for stopping us (P platers) doing stupid things? U can't, so instead give us oppurtunities to screw around...private properties, bush or even supervised runs at tracks. But of course this will only stop the majority of us doing stupid stuff and not the crazy ones on a death wise....also im all for driver training, but can never seem to find the money.
