Major engine probs...........!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Recommended Posts

Sup guys... its been awile since i posted last. Alot has happened since then.

Well here we go ... I sold my GTS-t and bought a tuned GTR back in Feb. When I went to go pick it up from the dealer the turbos died right their on the spot. So I had to replace the broken HKS 2540's with a set of Nismo T04E's from my friends wrecked R33.

Anyhow it was in the shop for about a month and a half. Then after a couple weeks driving time and a few good runs the engine starts to knock really bad...(it started knocking on the way down to the track :( under normal conditions!!!) Well I just got it back from the shop. They replaced the crank bearings and conrod bearings with the Nismo lemans bearings and new oil pump and a HICAS cancel kit and a bunch of other stuff. Anyhow it ran great for the first day, then today I took it up to Amori (northern Japan) to get me a new BOV cause my old one is way to small and it started knocking again ......

God D!@@%##!@#% !@#%

Any how I called the shop and they are coming up tomorrow to pick it up.

What should I do? The first bill was 366,968 Yen Ouch!!

I need input....I feel like pulling out all my hair and run around like a chicken with its head cut off. This car is driving me crazy!!!

    • Yes...but look at the numbers. There is a tiny tiny fraction of the number of Joules available, compared to what is used/needed. Just because things are "possible" doesn't make them meaningful.
    • Thanks for taking the time to post that ! If anything changes or happens please do update us. 
    • Somehow Vertimass/Oak Ridge National Labs has figured out a catalyst that can convert ethanol into C9-C10 hydrocarbons in basically a single step without ending up with a bunch of ethylene or similar waste products: https://patents.google.com/patent/WO2023224867A1/en I still don't think anything like this will keep us from needing to transition to EVs regardless along with all kinds of other electrification, but things like this will go a long way towards alleviating the problem of how to electrify things like planes. Renewable diesel is seemingly an easier problem as well, Chevron is already running refineries for the stuff and the primary feedstock is tallow and other waste fats from agriculture.
    • Ok so I have sorted everything with my uniclutch and  i can offer up a bit of feedback and some things that might help others.    I found problems with factory damper line. Weird shit and had trouble with peddle adjustment    I used this https://au.gktech.com/products/r33-gts-t-skyline-braided-clutch-line?_pos=2&_sid=22b01b9b9&_ss=r Also when adjusting peddle leave a bit of play. You can get into a over stroke condition easy.. Make sure you can push the slave forward after adjusting to confirm fluid can return to master then you will need to pump it up heaps…..not sure why but that’s how it is.    last thing the splined adapter is machined perfectly. If your input shaft is old like mine was I would put a bit of valve grinding paste on it and stroke it like a 15 year old. Just to give it a tad more clearance and to better match it to the spline.    reason is on a near flat shift I have had situation where the peddle returns a millisecond after you lift from the clutch. No slip or anything but I reckon this is due to tolerance on the spline being way tighter than stock clutch and binding for a sec. I think this will go away but also my spline was old. Box is old so I guess I should have checked better. It’s a super neat fit.    it feels light as and holds awesome without any noise    
    • My Fuga Hybrid is JDM, 2014 model but very similar to the V37 from the looks of things..same platform just physically larger and very comfortab;e
