hey guys

got my 32 about 2 months ago and been ironing out a few problems it had

since fixing other things i have noticed that i have:

an injector that has a small leak and is dripping small amounts of fuel onto the inlet runner (cant see it dripping but can see a small pool of fuel sitting under the injector and smell the fuel

and

after you go for a spirited drive its not a fan of a steady idle, yes i have cleaned the aac a couple of times now and i thought it was gone (had timing problems including a broken cas bracket :P which is now fixed). Its a strange problem as the car runs fine all the time now but after i went for a burn yesterday and i pulled over to change the timing and let it idle which started becoming more and more erratic (low revs then high revs then lower then higher) and it eventualy went so low that it stalled itself. i adjusted the timing and drove home. when i got back i let it cool for a while and it started doing the same thing. 1 thing to note that i was rumaging around and found the cold start valve was completely blocked off and unblocked it (cold start has been working perfectly ever since)

1 last thing

its got an rb25 turbo on it which usually runs ~10psi but i noticed that in 3rd at ~6k rpm it was getting on for 13psi, could the thin walled silicone hose that goes from the hot pipe to the actuator cause this (expanding under pressure maybe)?

many thanks if anyone can shed some light on anything as its starting to get a bit annoying

Tom

    • Hey all, not sure how active SAU is anymore but will ask away anyways. Just wanted to get some experience on the 2008 model GTR CBA model.  I've hit that age in my life (43) where I'm like fk it time to get my dream (midlife crisis) car. Looking at importing one in and seeing if these can be reliable if the main flaws are fixed up. Plan is to keep money aside to do the following straight off the bat to future proof it: * install a stage 1 rebuilt trans with all new bits and pieces.  * install a new Bellhousing from the later model GTRs. Or potentially an upgraded stronger version like MAD or ATR. Besides the above two things and typical maintenance items anything else you'd recommend doing.   Been speaking to a few people and the engine on these are very reliable apparently. But keen on the view of the community here. Hoping to find a nice grade 4.5 with low mileage in Grey. I'd go black but swirls too easy. Look forward to your responses and feedback. Cheers    
    • Do Alan and Keith work on Skylines now? I remember buying stuff from them when I owned my Ralliart Lancer a few moons ago. Definitely genuine guys and be excellent if they dealt with the skyline platform as well.
    • Hey all, I'm Gaston from Sydney's West.  I was a member on here when I was a younger lad and owned a mint R33 GTS-T. Ended up selling it and getting married having kids (yadda yadda) we all know how the story goes. Now I'm back with the intention to get my midlife crisis (dream) car ... a R35 GTR.  You'll see me about asking questions and searching the forums. Good to be back and can't wait to get back an Import again.
    • I have to put something here in order to post the photos. From what I could gather there's more enthusiasm for modified cars now than there has been for years. There were probably more younger people there than older (me included lol) which was a good sign.  It did seem like the record least amount of representation of the 90's era hero cars on display though. Like maybe one or two examples of S-chassis Nissans, and maybe 3 or 4 R-chassis. By comparison there were a lot of Civics from that era but in all there were about 10 - 12 EG/EK Civic Type R.  Euro exotics are always there in large numbers, led by Liberty Walk...... say what you will about kids using markers to scribble on a Ferrari F40, it did seem like a stunt to infuriate Ferrari enthusiasts, or Ferrari itself. I wonder if there's something more to it. Either way LBWK have done some heinous things to a Lamborghini Miura this time. They should stop now.
    • Engines and drivelines are not war stoppers for me mate, busted arse bodies and un-obtainium parts and panels are though Both cheap Brumbies I looked at had trashed tubs and a fair bit of rust
