Hello! Finally rejoined the club!

Hey Everyone,

Names Chris, been a forum stalker for ages now finally picked my new baby up and ready to get playing!

Had an R32 GTS-T with a S1 284rwhp RB25DET with conversion when I was 18 that was my first true love, then she met tragic circumstances with my brother in law and a light pole (everyone was fine... except my pride and joy)

Finally, 10 years later found her reincarneted in R34 GT-T form with tasteful mods and booked her straight in for a full birthday with a Skyline specialist to get her to 400rwhp. All the supporting mods are done, (Injectors, 90mm throttle, Alcon 330mm brakes, Tomei Cams, fuel rail, FMIC, Exhaust etc) Just bolting a low mount GT30 on with boost controller and a bit of maintenance and she will be a weapon!

Just wanted to say hi from Perth and its good to see a lot of helpful, like minded individuals!

Cheers
Chris

Nice! It looks beautiful! 

I particularly like your engine covers. 

:welcome:

Are you planning on doing a build thread?

 

Thanks man, yeah they are custom painted RB26 covers with modified for the VCT gear on the Neo, with the forward facing inlet plenum (which I am told actually loses you power unless running high boost).

As for a build thread, I dont think I will go too crazy with it, it will be all the little subtle/aesthetic changes I will make. Once I get her to 300rwkw that is more than enough streetable power... We will have to see how far my passion takes me if I end up feeling she is worthy of a build thread haha.

Thanks for the Welcome!!

Welcome Chris, 

drop into the WA section for a chat and catch up for a meet sometime:408_beers:

Cheers mate, yeah I will for sure!!

I intend on the smaller aesthetic touches and visual/electronic customization, and yeah love to brainstorm some ideas and get/give advice, so getting to know the scene in WA is definitely on the agenda! :12_slight_smile:

      I’d love to find some where that can recover the dashes to look brand new and original. Mine has a very slight bubble, nothing compared to some I’ve seen though

      $170K. I asked one of the guys there as a joke if that price was just for the passenger seat as it was where the price sheet was... he tried really hard to crack a smile 😄 He also mentioned that every single part of the car was inspected and either restored or replaced with a new or as new part, or made from scratch. The interior was incredible, every inch like a new car.

      Time for a modernisation, throw out the AFM, stock O2s, ECU into the e-waste bin. Rip out the cable throttle, IACV, pedal, etc. into the scrap metal bin. DBW, e-throttle, modern ECU, CANbus wideband, and the thing will drive better than when it left the factory.

      I agree, don't go trusting those trims. As I said, first step is to put the logger away, and do the basics in diagnosis.   I spend plenty of time with data loggers. I also spend plenty of time teaching "technicians" why they need to stop using their data loggers, and learn real diagnostics.   The amount of data logs I play with would probably blow most people away. I don't just use it to diagnose. I log raw CAN data too, as a nice chunk of my job is reverse engineering what automotive manufacturers are doing.

      I'm aware, but unless you're actually seeing the voltage the ECU is seeing and you're able to verify the sensors are actually working I find it hard to just trust STFT/LTFT. I will say, logging the ECU comes naturally to me because it's one of the lowest effort methods of diagnosis and I do similar things in my day job all the time. Staring at 20+ charts looking for something that isn't quite right isn't for everyone. NDS1 allows you to log almost everything so that's normally what I do and then sort out the data later.
