haha, I will try and get some taken tonight...give it a clean first.

My engine light come on the other day after I installed new headlights. (removed airbox and coolant bottle to get my hand in)

Had a look last night and one of the hoses from the intake pipe to the standard boost controller (only controls spikes) did come out, probably came out

when i was moving the afm around.

what would cause this?

cheers

only if you switch on the ignition or start the car with anything unplugged, and as cam said, it will be away about about 10 successful starts. i went to the dealer twice to get it cleared, but one time i couldnt be bothered but then it went away so i just leave it for a few days now............

So how much do you want for the rear muffler?

Given how huge the centre muffler is, not sure how much of a restriction it is, but it would be absorbing a tonne of energy/sound. Would imagine that the bulk of restriction would be in the 4 cats before you get to the centre muffler...

If my memory serves me correctly, you've only got 2 cats Nick.

Dump & front pipe (as it should be from factory). Mine was the oddball exhaust, so don't go by that (dump, 3 or 4 in front pipe)

Plus the two in the exhaust manifolds (headers)... one on each side...

Need to have one in the manifold to be a LEV (Low Emissions Vehicle). These ones are supposed to remove all the nasties before the engine warms up properly..

che?

The VQ25det powered M35's were never a low emissions vehicle.

The PM35 was with the VQ35de and the VQ25dd, but never the turbo.

Pretty sure my exhaust manifold doesn't contain a couple of cats... but I feel the need to have another look now

RAWS Consumer Information Notice for my car states that 3 new cats were fitted at compliance :)

Two have the same part number and I assumed are in the manifolds area and the other third one, I also assume, would have been between the dump and the jumbo mid muffler..

    • So we have most the interior back in, and for the first time with one OEM speaker hooked up. The 31 is running, driving and now tunes!!! Hahaha yet another step for the sub that sat 10m under for two weeks!!! unbelievable really 👌 lots of love work and not giving up on her. Seen so many youngsters part way less, and in way better condition. I’m stubborn, thinking another problem is just a hurdle to overcome, One at a time. IMG_9277.mov
    • That is correct. I'm using a modified ABS ring and a ZF speed sensor on my rear diff for speed input. I'm running a Haltech ecu. 
    • Been busy with the newborn. We originally thought we were going to go for a third, but we're good with two lol. He's starting to actually sleep now so I've had some energy to work on the car. It's been parked away in the garage since late November due to winter.  I went ahead and redid all my head oil drains. I originally had my front and rear head drain going into the same pipe but have since split them up. I also added an Ethanol content sensor to get ready to run E85 this summer. Tossed it on my return line. Sensor sits nicely under my intake manifold.    I also have a lot of parts that came in for my rear end. I'll be swapping over to a 3.3 final drive and doing the GK teck anti squat mod. While the rear subframe is off, I'll also change every bushing. We're planning on buying another house soon with the condition that I get at a minimum a 2 door garage, so I'll wait to have more room for this. Now onto the strange things that recently happened... After changing the lower rad hose (It had been sitting in my cabinet for well over a year and was the last hose I had to replace), I let the car idle in the garage to bleed my coolant. After running for a few minutes, it started missing. Got much worst within a minute or two and then stalled and would not restart. My crank sensor decided to crap itself. No damage, no explanation, just died. I went ahead and replaced it with another ZF sensor but the heavier duty stainless model with a shield. Tossed that in and started right up. Has anyone else seen this? I hate when things fail without cause. Luckily this was a blessing in disguise... This lead me to recheck my timing. It seems I may have had a beer or two the last time I had set my TDC angle as I was off exactly 5 degrees... I miscounted a line haha. I was running 5 degrees less then commanded. It's a little embarrassing but helps explain why my dyno operator seemed to think I should be making more then 478rwkws.        
    • Sharing results from recent Liberty Walk R35 GTR, since they are still considered as somesort of a V36 Skyline. We do them turbos too. This are high flowed SS-1 models with ball bearing conversion done.  Car have managed to pull 485awkws @ 20Psi so far pushing limitations of factory built engine. The build list for R35 GTR enthusiasts as follow : HyperGear high flowed stock turbos in SS1 (G25-660 specs) Custom titanium intake pipes. Vspec performance titanium front pipes. Vspec performance 4" titanium exhaust. Upgrade fuel pumps. 1200cc injectors. Ignition coilpacks Hks intake plenum. Hks intercooler piping. Greddy intercooler. Greddy bovs. Top-secret coolant reservoir. Emtron ecu. Straight E85. Built gear box.  
    • Nah no bearings, just slip fit.  Would be a reasonably challenging but not impossible job to modify it to run bearings but I'm hoping that's not necessary as I may have well built one myself if I end up spending hours modifying it!
