My First Boosted Skyline

[Tom5395]

Hey guys I've got a r33 skyline, 1995, type M silver, it runs a bit crap, got low compression but I'm going to boost it up and get it tuned for the time being before I get a new engine I guess, nice to drive at the moment but could use its full potential

If it's low on compression just drive it like a normal car and try and make it last

[Hadouken]

Good man! I'd do the same

If it's low on compression just drive it like a normal car and try and make it last

Or yolo it and make up for the low comp with more boooooostB)

[Ben C34]

Thrash it.

If it breaks it was shit and you didn't want it.

[Trex]

Add boost for every point of compression you are down?

[Tom5395]

Haha it's got 100-110 over all 6 but I took it to a jdm/drift garage and they said it sounded healthy but just needed a tune.

I've got power fc, z32, and 650cc injectors so I'm hoping for 350hp then I'll have myself a beautiful daily

[Hadouken]

If it's the same across all the cylinders then it's sweet.

Low compression generally around here means you dropped a cylinder or 2

[AngryRB]

unless someone took the stock cams out for hektic idle

[Tom5395]

Yeah sweet! The more I talk about low compression the better I feel about buying the car, I thought it was a massive mistake and it'll die on the dyno.

Haha don't think so, doesn't idle properly at the moment because of too much air from the big Ol turbo in it
