hehe yeah but your car still looks good & you don't see that many nice R31's around like yours...

crappy stock series1 R33's however...

especially when i still have to fix some minor damage, I'm sooo slack >_<

ok, so forgive me for being paranoid but...to what extent is this going to be a catalog for the more dodgy members of the public? hint hint

Any car show is a catalogue for more dodgy members of the public. Though last year no one caught my eye as suss or anything like that.

Realistically speaking your car is on show everytime you take it out of the garage so it's much of a muchness really I suppose, but that's just the way I look at it

I took mine there with a small ding in the back door last year and the front end riddled with stonechips. And I'd do it again this year :D

No matter how imperfect your car may seem there's always going to be some other one there on the day which makes yours look like it's just come off the showroom floor

    • It's (the TPS) buzzing? Or something else is buzzing in response? Remove the IACV from the plenum. Block the hole into the plenum with your hand. Get someone to start the car. Let some air is. Do the revs flare up? This is checking that the path into the plenum is clean. After that, is the air hose leading to the IACV fuly clear? After that, either you didn't clean it thoroughly enough to allow the valve to move, or it is broken.  
    • Just a follow-up on this topic. From what I can tell so far the rusty residue on the engine block might be unrelated to a coolant leak or maybe just older than anticipated. After driving it from the winter garage to my friend's garage I could not see any new traces of coolant leaking there, but I will test this properly once I was able to fully warm up the car and drive it for a bit. I think I can agree that the whole porous engine block stuff is kind of nonsense, but there is just a silly amount of true, false and half-true information on anything Skyline-related on the internet.
    • hrmmm , not mine , easter plans to pull engine not happening     
    • I removed the IACV, cleaned it and reinstalled.  I found a video on youtube that helped with the whole process, the guy then said the idle needed to be set, so the process was to get the vehicle up to operating temperature, unplug the TPS, set the idle screw in the IACV so the RPMs were around 600, then plug the TPS back in.  After I reinstalled the IACV, the car started (because, it was a cold start), once it warmed up, the car died, I adjusted the idle screw to see if that helped anything, it did not, I had to wait about 3-5 minutes, then the car would start back up. Only to shortly cut out, and only crank.  I loosened the TPS to see if adjusting that would do anything, and when I would rotate the sensor clockwise, there was a humming noise, but it would go away when I got the sensor in the horizontal position.  It only made the hum noise with the key on.  What do you guys think? 20250414_172604.mp4
