stump Posted October 13, 2012 Share Posted October 13, 2012 Dave, I'm relatively new around these parts, and just wish to throw in my "thumbs up" for your work mate. I'm still only in at entry level (1/12 ) but I am using your detailed build as part inspiration. I still hope to get myself a true 1:1 some day... Good luck with the rest of your fantastic journey mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

datsun dave Posted May 8, 2013 Author Share Posted May 8, 2013 Up and running again but have a poor idle, my tuner thinks it might be a blocked injector so have sent them off to be flow tested. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

datsun dave Posted April 27, 2014 Author Share Posted April 27, 2014 So the story so far last year engine was running (not on road) poor idle and problems with new Nismo AFM and i was working away so the Z has been garaged for around 12 months. AFM problem and idle now sorted as the car is at a Skyline workshop/Rolling Road to be sorted and mapped. Pictures are from yesterday when it was driven for the first time around the units roads.

datsun dave Posted May 10, 2014 Author Share Posted May 10, 2014 Nearly all sorted in the end it was a problem with a new Nismo AFM so I had to buy another new one to replace it. On the Dyno at 3000RPM we had just over 300 at the rear wheels with very little boost. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stony Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Cool, I have just never seen that kind of HP from an rb that low in the RPM range. That's awesome. Sounds like there is allot left in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
