Im getting the drive shafts repaired and the Skyline run on a dyno this Thursday as I have got my supra FMIC from ebay. If the result is impressive, I'll post. If not I'll be hoping that no one has viewed this post.

The guy doing it is Marcus Blythe from Flow Tech EFI in Greensborough.

Oh shit, I've just looked at the intercooler and it has had a 5 cent modification, (looks like somone ran 5 cents down the cooling fins) Wanker on ebay said 'great condition'. The seller is Tominien or something like that.

Besides that it doesn't fit properly, i'll need some pipe work. Still get it tuned anyway.

And the result is 207rwkw!!!

Apparently it is an after market turbo but was leaking pressure because it wasn't sealed properly when fitted and was leaking the hotter it got.

So the guy resealed it tuned it properly and it is producing 207rwkw running 18psi at 6200rpm.

Then the president called me up and asked me how to fix the whole Iraq situation and while on the phone I heard a womans cry for help and it was Lois Lane, she was stuck in a car while an earthquake was going on then time went backwards and superman came and rescued her....

Sorry, had to make up a story as it isn't ready yet. I am so full of shite :)

all righty then??

I'm guessing you'd be an annoying prick to work for... :) lol

I'd be interested to hear what it makes too, don't mind the ol' 30s :D I'm a bit behind the 8 ball, what's done to it? So far I know it has flash custom driveshafts and modded FMIC :D

and the moment you've all been waiting for. Here are some pics. It is really dirty so I'll clean it one day and put it up.

I wouldn't say I am annoying to work for..... more just a little misunderstood, I like to laugh like a mad scientist every now and again to keep the employees on their toes... :)

Got to wait until Monday, Those hot diggity darned drive shafts are a prick to get rebuilt and given how shagged they were, Marcus didn't want to flog them on the dyno until they were rebuilt, so I have to wait until Monday. I knew he didn't realise how much of a pain in the arse they are to get, but he called me and told me he'd have them Monday @noon the latest.

Good news is the intercooler is in and he has hotted up a shit load of R31's and VL's Turbo and Atmo.

Hey, a bit more positive feed back on the $150 mag wheels wouldn't go astray ;) I stuffed around for ages trying to get the size of the pic files small enough to get on this thread!!

Driving a VT wagon until then, biggest POC on the road.

    • It can't be some stupidly proprietary video signal coming out of it that only Nissan's can understand. Surely you can just find some generic camera to stuff in there and use hot melt glue/blu-tac/gaffer tape to hold it in place if need be?
    • Update: Tunehouse looked into the problem and identified a wiring issue between the camera unit and the connector. They managed to get it working , but did warn me at some point it will stop working again. From their perspective it is unserviceable and will need replacement. They did some research and found that the new replacement camera would be Approx $1400 supply only (their fitting cost would be $190) . They did provide the part number (28442-JL05B) and a quick google of the part number shows that these are rather expensive brand new (seemingly no longer in manufacture) for the places that still have them in stock, with the used option potentially presenting  the same issue down the track at some unknown point. They are happy for me to supply the part so that they can fit it. Decisions, decisions... I can definitely recommend Tunehouse (thankyou Vee37!). Cost for the diagnosis was as quoted  ($190) , car was ready on time and communication was top notch. Their workshop is super clean and modern, and there was plenty of car candy parked out the front on the day I went.   Would definitely go back.   
    • to fix the voltage drop issue I swapped out the old 150amp alternator which turns out is a brand known for having issues and replaced it with the black 180amp alternator beside it 
    • For anyone interested, the Way Back Machine has that Japanese website archived with pictures, etc: https://web.archive.org/web/20051023225805fw_/http://www.a31cefiro.com/air_con.htm "Simply swapping the wiring of the harness will not allow it to function properly. For the outdoor air sensor and sunlight sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN1-11 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. For the indoor air sensor, disconnect the wiring connected to CN2-3 of the air conditioning harness from the harness and connect the sensor side wiring to earth. The connector PIN numbers listed here are the genuine A31 PIN numbers. To avoid incorrect wiring, check with a tester before wiring. Also, disconnect the wiring in a location close to the sensor. The disconnected harness side wiring will not be used, so be sure to insulate it." Wish someone sold a conversion harness to just plug-and-play a Kouki 180sx digital climate control into C33/A31. I'm decent with wiring but feeling kinda lazy about taking this on. Edit: Did some more digging and found a helpful Minkara blog post about the conversion as well: https://minkara.carview.co.jp/userid/1831116/car/1360568/2284209/note.aspx "After installation is complete or the battery is replaced, you need to go into self-diagnosis mode and set the internal air recirculation. The way to do it is to "hold OFF with the key on for more than 5 seconds, set the number to 5, then press 卍→C." ↑↑↑It probably won't make sense unless you actually try it (・∀・)." Lol wtf
    • Maybe SAUNSW could see howany members would do a motorkhana day if Schofield's is still available for a reasonable price...
