How long did it keep running for ?

and your CERTAIN there is no turbo timer....

Engine or fan kept running?

If it was for a short time then the problem is called pre-igniting. the reason being that your timing is too far advanced, get a timing light and find out what the timing setting is and reset it.

agree with you Taylor.

Recent example of a R34 GTR Bayside Blue. Same description.

He'd dropped it into shop for something. Picked it up and drove home and the engine kept running when he turned it off.

Turned out the mechanics had played with the FOB during the day and accidently turned the Turbo timer on.

Owner didn't know he had one....

Its pretty easy to disable, I have the same immoboliser.. just a combination of key turns, watch the LED..

..then on your gaming pad press up, up, down, down, left, right, B, A then hold 'Select' until you hear a chime. Pretty sure that was a Double Dragon cheat for the NES.

    • Went to a drift practice day at a local circuit (held on the reserve parking area behind the grandstand) for the first time in about 15 years. Some kei cars were drifting as well, a not so surprising Suzuki Carry truck, and two 1st gen Daihatsu Copens that were converted to rear wheel drive(!) using Daihatsu Boon X4 transfer case, prop shaft and rear diff, obviously omitting the front driveshafts. They looked really fun to slide. I heard that they cost "about half" as much as a Nissan Silvia etc to run.  On the track 'Tech M' a local BMW tuning garage had a customer track day. Mainly recent models but there was one E36 which looked ancient among all the current models. It was cool watching the drifting and then turning around and seeing random people thrashing their M3/4s  central-circuit-drift-practice-2025-05-18-long-yt.mp4
    • I prefer it with those wheels (sacrilege?) 馃構 Here's a photo of a fully original one for reference. The price is $350K....
    • I would like to keep it around 15k but if I need more to make it reliable and not have to worry about the car breaking I can go more. It's my project car so I'm just trying g to figure out what needs to be in it i know basic things like turbo cams injectors I'm just unsure of the size and the specifics so I'm spending alot of time on Google and its mostly rb25 and rb26 not alot on neo
    • This. They would need some tricky maneouvering to keep the income out of the country (the US). Which isn't helpful if that's where you want the income to end up.
