there are many different versions of linux - your local ftp mirror will have all of them, you should read up on a few before you go ahead and install and to make it easier try and get another pc, like an old junker, linux will run on virtually anything, pentium 300mhz is plently. redhat linux gentoo linux slackware linux debian linux read up and pick one of those, i use slackware and it works well, nice and easy redhat is the common enterprise used linux as it has commercial support and supported software updates etc ftp.mirror.aarnet.edu.au will have all of them pretty much if not check out its.monash.edu.au as it will have them too lastly, if you cant find them goto google and put in public ftp mirrors there should be at least 5 or 10 in australia that will have iso copies of those linux versions

nice ride, cant go wrong with purple

as most of the guys have said, start at the bottom and work you way up, thats how most progress also be sure you are interested in IT and the computer industry, not just doing it for good $ if you are genuniely interested then start playing around with things at home setup linux at home, get a cisco switch at home, use vmware on your pc and play with windows 2000 server, windows 2008 server, linux etc play around with networking, active directory, build your own domain controller have a play around with cisco router emulator and so on... when i hire guys i always look for guys who are actually interested in IT and computers not just doing for it $, they are pretty easy spot. guys who play with the technology at home, have a good interest and willingness to learn. thats a key component also teachs you problem solving, and trying to learn/understand things that might be out of your current scope theres always someone who can help, shed advice, point you in the right direction etc.

a 30 minute on road wideband AFR tune can sort out your cruise AFRs. once that is done, you should be able to get 400kms+ to a tank each time, with city/traffic driving too. ive done this on my r33 and manage 400kms every time. on highway i managed 550kms to tank and it wasnt empty (was close).

dont bother with octane booster, run 100ron if you are worried about knock drop tyre pressure to 20psi and get your time slips, they are good data & help plan improvements then head off the drag section on the forum and read read read, once you have done a few runs and got some time slip data

any 3" system will be loud the muffler shuts the car up, so even if you just change that its very loud

its an rb26 head and rocker covers onto an rb25 he has etched out a corner of the 6 to make it a 5 people have done it the same to make it say RB30 as well you just work on the lettering of the 26 to make it say 30

yes you could re-initialise it to reset the cold start settings but that would erase the whole tune you can simply ask someone who has an un-modified (ie: almost everyone) cold start settings screen and change the numbers back

they are the same units no change

find the model or part no# of your guage and check out perfectrun or nengun

certain posts are removed form time to time when they are deemed unappropriate or cause controversary posting up comments saying "f*** the cops, f*** the police, they dont know s*** and they are c****" does't help the situation and other such comments or bandwagons where people think its a good idea to challenge the police and so on. these are removed and moderated by the car club forums, to protect the car club, we dont need people going against local law enforcement or posting endless thread on it. given they knew about the meet, its likely they are going to read these threads too

enough is enough. its unfortunate that it happened. life goes on. the local law enforcement is doing their job, enforcing their presence and "policing" a situation, hence the term "police". please leave the personal attacks out and other backchatting

please take this up with the workshop in question this is the recommended method for anyone who isn't happy with work completed

I agree - nothing to do with sau vic what you do in your own time is your choice - and keep the cop slander away, theres no need for it they are doing their job, look up the term "police" and youll understand the meaning of their role

the one i posted suits 80mm afms, so rb25 or z32 will fit, it even comes with a pair of z32s the stock gtr ones are 65mm

any signs of oil near the turbo? like the seals could be shagged or something, but thats a lot of oil to leak out the seals what about the cooler pipes etc, do you see any signs of oil in there, undo one of the silicon joiners and check again high unlikely you are loosing that much oil from say the turbo seal, but at least rule it out

well check for obvious leaks.. look at the sump bolt, check the oil filter, wipe it with a rag, then check again in a day, does the oily goo come back? are you checking the level at the same engine temp each time? does your oil pressure vary? leak marks on the driveway where you park ? does it blow smoke ?

what ecu? have you checked the afm? you mentioned datalogit - have u got any logs?

goto the tutorial section, look for a post by "Cubes" he has done a wiring chart, which covers what you need lastly if you cant find that, look at my website paulr33.skylinesaustralia.com im pretty sure the same data is on there look under wiring diagrams on my site

get it tuned and you wont need to bypass the fuel cut, the safc tune should do it

yeah S1 has 4 wires S2 has 3 wires the difference is the S1 has ground and signal ground, whereas S2 has one shared ground wire so you can just join the ground wires together

running stock ecu diag would provide a great help you could check all the sensors, and check on board diag, it even tells you why the engine failed to start put up a post in your local state chaper, asking for someone with a consult cable & software offer some beer for a visit to come out and plug it into a laptop, will clear up a bunch of issues and sensors to ensure they are working if you cant get access to consult - go see a work shop like you said trying unplugging afm, see if that helps, try unplugging water temp sensor, see if that helps

castrol transmax z

find a workshop to fit one for you - you should be able to get a FMIC kit fitted for around $500 these days no mess, no fuss, drive in, drive away and all done. btw congrats on buying your first 32
