Hello everyone! Bit of a stupid question, did some research and couldn't find the answer. For starters, car specs: 92 R32 GTR Power FC Tomei Expreme Ti exhaust with test pipe and unknown brand front pipe. HKS pod filters with Z32 AFM HKS FMIC and hard pipes. Situation: Recently i installed a cat delete pipe (test pipe) on the car and has been running great since then, accept for... The first start of the day (cold start?) she doesn't want to start. Ill hear the starter doing work however no go. Give it another try and once the engine catches i have to hit the throttle. car will idle all f$#@ed up for about 30 seconds then all is well? Every Start up after that is normal, just the first start of the day. Has this happened to anyone else? I don't believe in coincidence, but maybe this is. P.S. the cat temp sensor that was originally plugged into the stock cat is disconnected now. and I'm in japan... its 80 F/ 26 C in the mornings here, however the GTR had no trouble starting in 20 F / -6 C weather this past winter. Thanks everyone! -
Hey everyone, To start this is embarrassing that I even have to post about this but, apparently I'm not the only one with this problem according to other forums. Yesterday I did some much needed maintenance to my recently bought GTR. I changed out the brake pads, turned the rotors and replaced the HKS air filters. I also ATTEMPTED to change my oil... When it came time to swap out the oil filter, I spent 3.5 hours trying to the get the old one off. I used three different styles of oil filter wrenches and neither of them did the trick. When I could actually get both my hand and the wrench down there to torque it off, it would just dent and puncture the filter. The filter now looks like a soup can that someone kicked off of a cliff and screwed it onto the side of my rb26 lol. I'm out of ideas. Contemplating taking off the air plenum and possibly retorting the wires and hoses that are surrounding the filter of possible to make future oil changes easier. Ideas or similar experiences?
