    Bovs; or lack thereof

    My fake SSQV that my car came with is making my car run terrible and gives massive after fires on run off. A real one or maybe a decent turbosmart one will probably fix all my woes BUT for now, I'm thinking no bov might be better than a terrible one. Does anyone have any ANECDOTAL EVIDENCE of...

    Well, crap

    This is such a hard piece of hardware to describe but here goes: Firstly, I have gtr32 front brakes. So, yes, this would possibly be better placed in a skyline forum but Meh. On the front brakes there are two pins to hold the pads in. To hold those pins in place there is a piece of...

    2fst4u's sr20det spec S take 2!!!

    Right, build thread time. This is my second spec S with an sr20det swap (same colour and similar body kit too. Creepy). I had to get rid of the last one because I ruined the engine and was in a tricky situation of needing to move cities about 3 times in the upcoming months (I'm in the RNZAF...

    Question time! Coolant overflow tanks

    Does anyone know for a fact if the stainless steel s14 coolant overflow tanks that sit over the wheel arch will fit an s15? They look like they should but I can't find a definitive answer. Thanking you

    Headlight bulbs

    So here in NZ it's illegal to have aftermarket HID kits fitted but my cars previous owner has done it anyway. Question: To remove the hid kit and return to stock, do I just need to buy a standard H1 for an s15? Is there any special little metal tab thing that holds it in? Luckily it seems he...

    Possible stupid question to follow

    The stupidest questions are those that aren't asked though. Should the Air con relay "click" audibly when the "AC" button is pushed, while the HVAC is on and blowing air and set to 18 degrees Celsius? Regardless of all other factors such as pressure in the system and engine running? If I'm...

    Oil filter relocation blocks

    Does anyone know of a good oil-filter-end of an oil filter relocation kit? I have the tomei N2 oil block, which has AN fittings so I'm struggling to find the oil filter end of the system that has AN fittings. Gktech does one but they have barbed fittings, one of which is custom length so can't...

    Brake upgrade question

    Just a quick one. My mate's gonna sell me his R32's front rotors and callipers, which I believe is a good bolt-on upgrade, but my rears are pretty shot too. I Don't want to go to the hassle of swapping over skyline rears because of all the handbrake rigmarole so would brand new oem spec S...

    Fuel pump rewire opinions

    I suppose this is an electrical question. My mate has an R32 that he modifies heavily and he gave me a suggestion for my new s15 that I should rewire the fuel pump to be constantly on (while the car is on of course) to provide as must pressure as possible to the rail 100% of the time. I've...

    Oil Catch Can Solutions

    I've spent about 3 hours trying to look into this. What is the best solution to prevent blow-by in the engine case? By best solution I'm implying leaving out expensive external pumping options. Which rocker cover hoses can go where? And where should the catch can be placed (I.E, between which...

    Boost controlled by ECU. Yes or no?

    As my wishlist grows and grows, one thing I have on the list is an ECU and tune. Right now I'm running a turbosmart boost tee (Which is absolute crap. I have it on minimum setting and when I put my foot down I boost into a dangerously high 1.4 ish Bar. Not good). And have been looking out for a...

    Major noob question

    So I see a few cars that push out high power, or even just show cars, that run with no airflow sensor ahead of the turbo intake. How does this work? How does the ECU know what A/F ratio the engine is running and what do I need to run my engine like this? I like how clean it looks but can't...

    Calling all amateur auto-electricians!

    Big problem, hopefully simple fix: Last I drove my car, the headlights were working. Between then and now, they have stopped. Kaput. Here are my symptoms: 1. Park lights and interior/dash lights turn on after turning the combination switch one click, 2. Those same lights remain on, none turn...

    2fst4u's SR20DET Spec S (WARNING: Lot of pics)

    Thought it might be about time I started a thread. My car started it's life as an automatic JDM Spec S. Now after a lot of work (by previous owners :D ) it has an engine and manual transmission from an S14, a tight LSD and all the rigidity of a Spec R (hence the simple little mods I've done to...

    Diagnosis requested for the following symptoms

    Before I begin, yes. I googled and yes I used the search function. About a week ago I increased my boost using a cheap boost tee (not ideal but I'll get a better controller later) and now my car spikes to around 1.4 bar and settles at 1.1 ish. That's not the problem though, I'm just letting...

    Defi racer gauge wiring

    So far i havent delved into the world of auto elec-trickery but some of you might have some ideas. I just got a defi racer boost gauge. Hooking up the sensor is easy enough but the four wires that need splicing in im not confident with. What is the best method to attach the wires and most...

    Odd rear demister problem after removing door chime

    Hey guys, hoping someone can help me on this one, I stopped the annoying door chime using the 'unplugging-at-the-ignition-barrel' method, and now every time I turn my car on "ON, not ACC and not just after starting", the rear demister turns on after about 30 seconds. I won't be able to plug...

    Boost/Vacuum/hoses questions

    Hey guys, have a few questions that I'm having trouble finding answers to myself: 1. Where is the best place to tee a boost gauge? Before you start with the two-word answers (Intake manifold), I ask this because there are quite a few nipples around that general area. Are any of them more...
