Were you familiar with the grill that was on Iain's car?

That is a damn good looking grill IMO and can be found on Yahoo.

yeh forgot about that, but I was always a fan of open grills, and the nismo option was ironically the more expensive option

Not a Nismo option, just a custom grill with a Nismo emblem put on it ;)

i have a quick question.

the engine light is on the dash and i have no idea why, who would be the best person tos peak to ? the local auto electricion ? or is there something i can do to find out why its there by myself ?

cheers

1. Ignition to "ON", wait 3 secs

2. Depress/Release pedal 5 times within 5 secs

3. Wait 7 secs and press accelerator pedal to the floor

4. Wait until CEL flashes then release pedal.

5. Count flashes to retrieve the CEL codes (10 flashes is a zero value and codes are in groups of 4 values)

Sounds like a sensor has gone over 5 volts at some stage- just reset and see if it comes back before trying to find out what sensor

google copy paste

OBD Code P0651refers to

These 5-volt reference circuits are independent of each other outside the PCM, but are bussed together inside the Engine Control Module (ECM). Therefore a circuit condition on one sensor 5-volt reference circuit may affect the other sensor 5-volt reference circuits. The ECM monitors the voltage on the 5-volt reference circuit.

Causes

Possible causes of OBD code P0651

- Shorted sensor - Shorted sensor circuit - Failed ECM The Error code is generally activated on detection of the following conditions: The ECM has detected an out of voltage range on the 5 volt reference circuit 2

Threads shouldn't be deleted just because you're trying to sell the car without mentioning its a RWO in the sale description.

Lol, nicely played Dunc.

Honesty is the best policy.

Ask Edward Lee. :whistling:

Perhaps sale thread should be linked to this thread to demonstrate the hard work required to achieve a successful repair?

    • my catch can is pretty easy to empty but it overflows due to the blowby/crank case pressure etc. max I have drained is ~600ml even with a ~2.3L capacity. So it is not just about having to drain it out its the mess it makes down the firewall and under the car and rear passenger tyre from the overflow oil being blasted by screamer + air in general. Ending up on the ground cleaning the oil up and having oil on your arms when everyone else can chill and watch the other sessions gets old fast
    • Yeah - the secret learned a long time ago is that the RB likes to belch oil out the covers, and/or starve the pump because it drowns the head in oil, because the upflow of crankcase gases from piston blowby comes up through the oil drain holes in the block and prevents the oil from flowing back down. The external vents from sump are about creating an alternative path/much more XS area for gas flow to decrease the gas velocity up through the oil drains and allow the oil to get back down. So, it's not about pressure at all. It is about flows - gas up and oil down - or when it's not working, gas up and oil not going where it is supposed to after it arrives at the top, except out through the cam cover vents. And regardless of whether the catch can is vented to air or vented to the turbo inlet, it must still be vented because a sealed system would blow out the crank seals, or something equally bad.
    • I just used a can that's easy to empty after every session and pour it back into the fill hole. Takes about 40 seconds when you have 40 minutes between runs :p I don't see how changing any catch can stuff will reduce pressure if the system is sealed. And if it's vented - Does it matter where it's vented with regards to overall pressure?
    • Welp, too late already committed to the cam cover breathers to be welded on. I did think about adding a catch can in line with the drivers side sump breather as a phase 2 along with a drain to the sump on the original catch can but with an inline ball valve so I can have it closed if needed.    Likely a single breather would have been enough but I think I’m overcompensating to hopefully not have to empty my catch can and clean up oil over flow every session.    out of curiosity has anyone actually measured crank case pressure before and after various mods? I’m considering adding a sensor for science 
    • Is it a dog or synchro box? I guess either way, if it is new and crunching in one gear only, it has to come out and go back to the shop to check/measure as there is either an assembly or manufacturing issue
