hey there

i'm looking at buying a skyline (GTR34) and funnily enough i'm still on my Ps.

does anyone know if it is possible to remove the twin turbos from the engine?

and what will need to be done.. such as new manifolds and whatnot?

or would i just be a better idea, to buy a second engine to fit until i'm off my P's?

any help would be great.

thanks

yup school holidays it is

kids should be tagged with a microchip these days... that way as soon as they get near a computer MSN automatically opens up, and they're restricted from posting nothing other than "OMG","WTF","BBQ","lollolol","sXc" and "yUpZ" on automotive forums.

Hehe your real name is super tim?

what do you expect to get when you say you want a GTR, let alone an r34. and your on your P's...

you not making a good impression of the younger guys to the grownups@!

i think im 'kool, wikid and awsem' enough to be driving my car... but you have to consider petrol is expensive, insurance is a bitch, the list goes on if you dont have a commo. which is why i dont have insurance but thats ok, because i dont have any money for petrol either.

come to think of it, a poster of a skyline in my garage would have been much cheaper.

by the way, funkymonkey you had me at "BBQ"

:lol:

Umm... I tought the school holiday is over a week ago must be one of rich-ass private school kids with a parents who throws lots of cash...

Why the hell you want to change the engine on GT-R? It spoils the dymanic of the Skyline breed.

Why not buy 25GT since it's NA... This way, insurance will be less bitcher than GT-R.

Sure, everyone dreams about owning R34 GT-R... we all do.

Cheers

Grant

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
