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!

    • I believe Unimog is the only vehicle that has it (from the manufacturer). I haven't seen aftermarket permanently connected kits, but I haven't looked either.
    • Ha ha ha, can't overthink when exhausted... Oh how I wish I had that power! I can be absolutely dead set shot, and my brain will still go "we need a good 3 or 4 hours to just think about everything and anything before you may sleep... My biggest thing is making sure I give myself enough sleep. I don't operate on even 7 hours of sleep! I attempt to give my body 9.5hours sleep a night to be able to function. I don't sleep the whole 9.5, but I need to make sure I offer a big window. I also take a single supplement, which is to help with long term health, and fighting inflammation, and I notice it helps massively. Especially me sleeping, and just less "achey" in the body. Have also kicked sugar, and gluten. A majority of people with ADHD don't go well with gluten. It causes a really interesting natural opioid overdose in the brain, which causes bodily issues and sensory issues.
    • Yeah that's what I meant, permanently connected not manual
    • Yep. But typically that's just run a hose down to the tyre while stationary.   Oh and the Unimog will automatically air up and air down tyres from the onboard computer for you too.
    • There was a good video somewhere, maybe Kurzgesagt that linked physical activity to ADHD/Anxiety/Insomnia etc. Basically the body WILL spend energy doing something if you don't spend it doing anything physical. It isn't fun, but I personally have noticed I've never been overthinky, or unable to sleep if I'm physically exhausted from doing a lot. The musings around it seem to indicate that this is one of the reasons/mechanism that physical activity improves mental health/wellbeing etc, by more or less not using that 'extra' energy to overthink, be anxious, inflammation, etc. There's also the fact that every obnoxious exerciser ever says it's great and helps which is extremely annoying. Like people who say the same thing about travel being the best thing ever. I mean, they clearly are, but blah. I started doing a LITTLE myself (think 3x15min per week) and honestly did notice the benefits, aiming at life quality when older. Which is sooner than you think. Getting something into your routine that you can actually make a routine has helped me at least. This post brought to you by procrastination between sets.
