yeah isnt that basically what ur after, a richer mixture which allows the car to run cooler and benifits a few other things and in return gives u more power, or am i miss informed and to get more power u need to go leaner??

i read a whole article on it and it said that richer was better for more power and cars come out of the factory lean for better fuel efficiency, the whole thing didnt really make sense to me as i used to ride motor bikes and the way to get more power out of the was to lean them out so it was all a little confusing for me.

ok im definately getting one, i found the new version (version II) on an american website and it will cost me about 540 dollars to get it here. I got a quote to fit it at 100 bucks and a mate of my dads is gonna dyno it and tune it for me, all should be done in 3 to 4 weeks hopefully, let u all know how it goes.

yeah actually i know someone that has one on their non_turbo car, it gets rid of the airflow meter and you can get a good gain in power etc. if you set it perfectly! i am considering one myself so if u get one b4 me tell us how it works out. bware though if u set it lean, do not rev to red line, the power will come in much earlier and u risk breaking things at high revs!

Mine is set to High Throttle but dont know what that means.

on the later series, blue screen edition, the safc's have two interchangable fuel settings.

i guess it could be for things like good fuel bad fuel days, summer/winter temperatures, power/economy.

no, i have read that, they have 2 selectable and modifiable (is that a word) maps these are high and low throttle, i would say high throttle was the last thing that was tuned and or the only thing that was tuned. At a guess...

      Possible swap on R34 RB20DE NEO?

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. A little bit of an update. It maybe(hope not) looks like i would need a new tranny(it would be "maybe" a cheaper or better option anyway) So i need some info. I know i need a different propshaft(i can make custom one) LSD is not a problem cuz the engine will be still(for now) N/A RB20. So if i buy RB25DET NEO tranny...is there something else i need? I read something about push/pull type but i do not know if i need to "change" something or i can just plug n play onto my engine a go? Thanks for the advice

      Turn signal wiring question

      By OakvilleGTR · Posted

      Good morning all, Bit of a random question but figured I’d finally throw it out after wondering for a long while. Before I start, I'm hoping to do this purely out of personal preference. I think it would look better at night, and don't mind at all spending a few hours and dollars to get it done. I've copied this from a non-Skyline specific forum, so I apologize for the explanation of our headlight switch setup that we all know. Here we go: Zero lights (switch off) Parking lights (switch position 1) being a rectangular marker on the outside of the housing, my low beam being the projector in the centre (position 2), and a high beam triggered by my turn signal stalk. Most North American cars I’ve owned of this era have power to the amber corner (turning indicator) light as part of the first switch (parking lights). I’d love to have these amber corners receive power when the headlights and parking lights are on (headlight switch), yet still blink when using the turn signal which is of course a separate switch. Hopefully I’ve explained my question correctly. Is anyone aware of a way in which I might be able to achieve this? Thanks in advance

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      My heads are cathedral port! It's likely possible, but I don't want to add any extra moving parts (I know they don't move) between the heads, manifolds, etc. It will also affect how injectors/fuel rails etc sit and I don't really know if it would change how the FAST manifold goes/sits/fits. I have the LS6 steam pipes already as I have a very late LS1 block so it should be fine. I couldn't find anyone who had ever actually used one for this purpose, it seems 100% of people grind the water pump. The thermal spacers are 12mm and are half way to the cost of the newer water pump anyhow... so if it comes to that I suppose I'd rather buy a new pump. The bearing in the pump I do have is a little.. clunky, but it hasn't done that much time and I never noticed it when the car was together in the past few years, so..

      Lower A arm Skyline v35

      By sonicii · Posted

      The bushing has failed, not all that uncommon for a car of this age.  Any mechanic should be able to push in a new bushing for you, or you can probably buy the entire lower control arm, complete with bushes.

      Could you not use "thermal" spacers to give the clearance, like the ones I used between the blower and head? That raised the manifold height by around 10-15mm Albeit the ones I used were for cathedral ports, but I assume they have similar for rectangular ports????
