the thing is I cant seem to get it unto the third white marker

Ive reset the ECU and placed the CAS on the centre

I check with timing light and the markers line up to the first orange line

I set it fully anti clockwise and it only moved to the first white marker

after a bit of driving I checked the timing again and it was back to the first orange marker...

so... I have no clue why its doing this

Where are you picking up the trigger signal for the timing light?

Timing on a Skyline can be a pain, this is what I do to make sure the signal is pure......

I take the #1 coil right off and lay it on the cam cover. I them stick a piece of insulated wire inside the coil (like it was a spark plug) so it makes contact. I connect the other end of the wire to the spark plug. I loop the sensor from the timing light around the piece of wire. That way you get a nice clean signal from only 1 cylinder, with no delay (light flashes exactly when the plug fires).

Hope that helps :)

i take the trigger from the wire leading to the no 1 coil, just before the coil plug

There were no problems with this a few weeks ago

since then I manage to pop an intercooler hoose and since fixing that, have not been able to adjust the timing correctly

Wo, there's a couple of unrelated occurances. Are there any error codes on the ECU?:P

error codes... uhm... dont you need a diagnostics tool to find that out?

Im just working with basics at the moment  

Not sure if I want to bother taking it to a mechanic because Im installing a wolf in a week or so

Well if it has something wrong now, it will still have something wrong when the the Wolf goes in.:P

true that hahaha

I meant I probably wont bother letting a mechanic take a look at it untill I take the car to get the wolf done. hopefully then they can figure out the problem and then put the wolf in.

Would any workshop or mechanic have diagnostic tool? because I went to nissan awhile back and they said it wont be compatible with import cars

But I was pretty sure this workshop that service my car has it and used it on my car before

      Nah, the car seems to run exactly as it did prior, in saying this it does "seem" to be better down low, like more eager to rev, but that may be 100% placebo effect from intake noise But, I'm not worried about it at all, in the end it is a fairly low compression NA engine that has a well shrouded intake,  if it is getting hotter IAT I cannot notice anything negative performance wise from the seat of my pants thrashing it about on the street or sitting in traffic, so meh, car now now makes induction noise so I'm happy

      Do you have an IAT sensor? It's worth checking it to see. You may be suprised how little gap you actually need to flood your engine with hot air. (I tape up my airbox for a reason) :p

      @KinkstaahKrinkle paint the "silver" alloy, not the red filter frame Engine bay heat won't be a issue worth worrying about as the silver alloy blocks it off on 3 sides, as for the top, the bonnet seals most of it and the big OEM CAI intake snorkel is still fitted in its original position  I will head into Clark's Rubber when I have some time to grab some pinch weld to tidy up the alloy after I paint it As for performance, I honestly wasn't expecting any, the only reason I got it is because the intake noise sounds cool to my old ears when I'm feeding it the beans Sometimes it's the silly things you do in in life that gives the most fun, and I do love anything that makes cool car noises In other news: I survived 4 nights at sea with Jackie not throwing me over board, holidays are continuing now as we are currently chilling at the Beachcomber in Toukley, after taking the coast roads from Sydney in the MX5, top down all the way, Toukley is where I spent a good deal of my youth holidaying during the summer months, there's lots of reminiscing going on,  and lots of beaches and old houses to visit Next on the list is to head to Batemans Bay for a few days, but we will take the Commodore out to stretch its legs, then Commodore hasn't really moved for months

      There’s probably people who’d like to do it and then when it comes to putting their hands in their pockets they’ll all disappear into the shadows

      Thinking of getting a Q50 300hp and just tuning it instead of getting the Q50 Red or 400R

      interesting....sounds like the later trans has software differences (or AM vs JDM). If I wasn't going down the tuning route it would be worth looking into retrofitting a new computer to the old box.
