hi ecl.

definitely a totally different kettle of fish! The teg had spoon springs, injen CAI and Trust PE2 exhaust. Not very modded - saying that though the little pocket rocket managed a 121.9kw atw which was quiet impressive compared to stock (roughly 105kw atw). it handled like a dream and the K20A2 in my opinion sounded the goods (most prefer the B18C). i felt i knew the car and what it could do (had an EM1 civic coupe before it).

Jumping into this GTT is hugely different - im still figuring out when the car starts and finishes - its sooo long! can definitely feel the power increase - turbo spools nicely! such a change coming from one of the best handling FWD produced to a rear wheeler with so much power - i think i may need to take a driving course to understand the car better. As soon as my exams are finished i'll be able to spend more time with her and give a better analysis.

Both great cars though - i didnt sell the R to upgrade/downgrade to a skyline - i just dont like owning cars over 75000kms and managed to get a decent price still.

BTW - thanks all for your help re the park lights - sorry for the n00b questions - got the parkers from autobarn today.

Justin

    • Steam valve seals are usually responsible for cold start smoke, it goes away once engine warmed up. Disconnect it let engine breathers and let it breath freely, see if problem goes away after a short drive. Also check to make sure engine oil drain pipe is not blocked or kinked. 
    • Haha thanks! Yea I'm moving over from 2x 1000cc jets pre throttle over to 6x 190cc direct port jets and 1x 500cc pre throttle jet.  Direct port comes with all the advantages you would expect, except that pre throttle does cool down IAT'S more. That's why my direct port nozzle placement is closest to the plenum as possible in the runners to allow the air more time to cool before being sucked in. I'm also putting that one 500cc pre throttle jet to help with more cooling. It's a hybrid system. There's a lot more advantages to moving over to a PWM solenoid with a constant pressure system vs my old PWM pump setup, but I'll get more into that once I'm done converting everything over. The ricer in me is excited to see SS tubing all over my manifold though!
    • Very cool, see what I did there? 馃ゲ Wild WMI setup, first I've seen where it's on each cylinder runner, usually I see a single jet pre throttle.
    • Welcome mate. What type of work were you looking at getting done? Majorly of decent skyline workshops are in the SE.
