Hey guys,

Just thought I'd stop in an introduce myself, I'm John from over in NZ.

Just brought my first Skyline a couple of months ago from over in Japan, first car I've imported so has been a bit of an experience!

Had quite a few mods done to it in Japan; rough list for you...

R33 block, forged, 272 IN & EX cams, adjust cam gears

Nismo LM RR581 Twin turbos

HKS exhaust from dump pipes back

Greddy 150mm thick intercooler

Sard 720cc injectors

OS Giken triple plate clutch

ATS LSD's

Adjustable upper arms etc, heaps of Cusco sway bars

Sard alloy radiator

Trust oil cooler & relocator

Work Emotion CR wheels

Hicas delete

Ignition amplifier

Heaps of electronic bits like gauges etc

Soild mounted gearbox and all sorts of little things like that

HKS F Con V pro, this unforunately got stolen at the docks when it arrived into the country, I have since got insurance however and have replaced it with a Link G4 plug in, went to get it tuned and found it had an exhaust leak, so I had to strip the turbos off, was such a prick of a job that I have scrapped the twin turbos and am in the process of putting a single turbo on it, manifold is being made at the moment for a Bullseye performance S366 Borg Warner turbo, wastegate etc and then a new tune, haven't been able to drive the car yet to i'm dying to get it going!!

Finally a couple of pictures:

      Rb head oil drain dimensions

      By Papichulo96 · Posted

      Bump on this to not make another post, had a ‘head drain’ leak on me and have the engine out as we speak. Planning on just putting a new freeze plug back in , plug the tapped holes and just be done with that headache.    Now I still want to relieve pressure to allow oil to pass down the blocks returns easier. I’ve seen catch cans with multiple vents help folks with this issue on this forum.  I’m wanting to make my own. I have some pictures here of my setup if anyone can help how I should plumb and design the catch can I would deeply appreciate it !   rb25 Oil upgrades: 1.0mm restrictor n1 pump/billet gears extended crank collar  extended sump with trap doors/w welded fitting

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The Frenchy's kit is the way to go forward. A modern compressor that weighs about 1/2 as much, is at least twice as efficient, and will do a good job on R134a. And of course the kit has everything else you need to connect it up and have it work properly.

      Need AC Compressor for R32

      By Zabuza · Posted

      Hey all , I am in the process of having the AC system in my r32 GTST converted from r12 to r134a and I’m being told my compressor has gone bad and I will need a new one. I was wondering if anybody has any suggestions for what is the best route to go aside from dropping $1500 on a new oem one? I did see that Frenchy’s performance garage offers a kit to mount a Toyota compressor, has anybody actually used this kit on their car? Or is there anywhere I could purchase just a clutch? Any help is appreciated.

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Well, your RB20 ECU loom won't have wires for the boost solenoid, that boost sensor, and possibly one or two other things. There could be differences in seemingly random things like the charcoal canister purge solenoid, because the 25DET has to handle boost in the vacuum system and the 20DE does not. I don't know - I haven't looked. It is very likely that all the most important things are same-same, being the main sensors like AFM, CAS, etc, and the injectors and ignition. Not that you'll need the AFM for the Haltech anyway. I would suggest that you would seriously want to sit down with the pinouts for both ECUs and just go through them and highlight green what is the same, orange what is different/missing, and make a plan from there. It's not going to be difficult. It will either be the same or need to be fixed.

      Help Understand GTT Boost Setup

      By Sxnjeet · Posted

      yeaaa that's why I haven't done any wiring to the stock ecu harness because I have the haltech, but then that leads me to the other question of "is the pnp harness really plug and play?" or would I have to still switch some pins/wires over because the pnp is for the rb25det neo harness, and not for the rb20de neo harness. was really hoping to find something to spoon feed me since so many people have done rb20neo + t conversions, but man this is rough.
