Rb25De Down On Power/over Fueling

hey guys



So im new to the skyline game, bought one a non turbo r32 with an rb25de swap about 2 weeks ago. it drove fine but felt a little slower then expected(thought it was normal as people have told me non turbo r32's aren't that fast). After driving for a week i decided to do a comp test on all the cylinders, it pulled 135 psi on all the cylinders :S i've read that its supposed to be 182 psi, can anyone confirm this? It doesn't feel engine doesn't feel really worn out, it doesn't stutter or have any rough spots, runs and idles fine. Im pretty sure its running really rich, as when i warm it up before i leave work it leaves a marks behind the exhaust on the ground and you get a bit of a fuely smell coming into the cabin(i've checked for splits in the fuel lines there aren't any).



I also find that it picks up faster when i roll on the throttle on instead of flooring it. i have a suspicion that the previous owner might have put a turbo motor in and just taken all the turbo gear off( is there a way of checking if he has done this?).



do you guys any idea what might be causing the over fueling/underpoweredness? is there a way of getting a little more power without dropping a new engine in or getting this one rebuilt?



any info is much appreciated



cheers guys!

      Anyone know this frontpipe?

      Would this not be the same for the exhaust you've posted up?  If your exhaust volume and emissions are fine, why does the brand of pipe matter?

      The issue is more the fact that there is inspectors that deal with japanese cars a lot and they might know what a real Mines pipe looks like. And then they're gonna get antsy and not pass your car. But I'd have to talk to one of them about this, because you know as well as me that it's just a damn pipe and it effectively doesn't do anything. As I need to have my GT2860s and my exhaust setup (and the increase in HP) TÜV'd anyways maybe they can just correct the entry in the papers or assign a badge to the front pipe. I'm no expert either though, will inquire about this.     Thanks for the insight. Not sure if having a custom made pipe is good or not. Will find out in due time I suppose. Would be kind of funny if this was made in Germany though.

      See this is a really tricky topic as technically the same rules apply to all cars but for cars but there is a difference. If you want to modify a car like the Skyline which never existed here you have a bit more freedom as they do not adhere to EU specs anyway. Any modification you do has to be in dividually checked anyway so as long as one of the inspectors think it's ok and within the TÜV ruleset you can get stuff like a top secret rear diffuser put in your papers. Which frankly would need a shitload of tests and certificates for EU spec cars, like a 2010 BMW M3 for example. But if you DO run these tests and all tests come out ok (safety stuff for the most part) there is no problem running such a part legally. It's just way too expensive to do for a single person on one car. The most touchy parts are emissions related mods, like an exhaust, turbos, air intakes. If it makes noise or alters the carbon emissions it's essentially illegal until you prove it's not. Meaning it doesn't exceed noise limits or have worse carbon emissions. I'd say for hoses if you replace them same same it doesn't matter what material they are or what brand you use. Same for nuts and bolts usually, they won't go and specifically check that your water hoses and some bolts are 100% OEM parts, that is nonsense.

      New fix for low tyre pressure from bmw

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      What I don't understand here is that it mentions using a sealant. So either way you're ruining the inside of the tire and making a huge mess to clean up. Why not just do that, air it back up to spec, then take it all off and put it back in the car? Also, why not just include a plug kit that's not garbage?

      What a f**king weener. I have worked in Gary, IN. At the time there were more gun deaths each night there than almost anywhere else in the world. Still not a reason to be afraid. 95% of people from your part of the world only have 3 teeth left from when you were addicted to meth, and now you're perpetually wrecked by Fentanyl. The only saving grace is that most of you didn't vote for Trumpler. Speaking of which, I'm off to the oval office right now. Got to relieve my bowels.
