dondesoto Posted November 18, 2005 Author Share Posted November 18, 2005 Well it was better wasn't it... and proabbly with a different tuen it'll get better. How did it sound? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> your right about the tune , but i wont be bothering for a while now . you see i hurt the motor . now smokey at high revs and using oil .How did it sound ? Wish i had taped it , it sounded great , nothing like the sound of a twin cam at full song , lots of induction roar and the open extractors screamin , luv it . As for the engine , i have another rb30 block which i will freshen up and put under it .

dondesoto Posted November 25, 2005 Author Share Posted November 25, 2005 UM I not too sure whats goin on with the engine . its not using oil , even tho it has smoked a couple of time at high revs . in fact the oil level has stayed constant in last 500 km since it last smoked . also one of the breather hoses isnt hooked up . maybe i was being bit of an alarmist , this weekend am going to do a compression test . apart from all that it seems to be going as strong as ever . oh yeah did i tell you that i bought another skyline . well it was cheap a 5 speed series 3 r31 WAGON , ( yeah go the wagons ) and its powder blue , nice boy colour lol Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/84884-2-x-afm-and-2-x-tb/page/4/#findComment-1744136 Share on other sites More sharing options...

What are your plans for this car? <{POST_SNAPBACK}> As the body of my red wagon is reaching its use by date , will transfer the good gear across to the " NEW " blue one . It will be a sleeper , keeping it absolutely stock on the exterior , standard wheels suspension and ride hieght . Should even keep the standard hubcaps on .
