  1. i voted for 'meh' i have one because its standard and i like its functional aspect, but don't think about it or care much otherwise... pretty much a 'meh'
  2. sounds like backfire or maybe the air intake was comletely blocked (via plastic bag or something) and no air got in?? need more deatils... car running ok before/after? engine lose power completely? or was the engine unaffected? Waz.
  3. oh and one other thing if it is the injectors (or an injector) then can this be cleaned other than via injector cleaner and where do i get this done? just the local mechanic?
  4. stockies are allowed?? oh good then i will definately like to show up but mine is very stock looking and pretty shit but its still a skyline!
  5. have had a slight miss for quite some time, but it has only been evident inconsistently at idle and hot whilst driving. decided to get off my ass and change the plugs which i had not done so since getting the car and it has done over 15,000kms since then. while i was there i did an oil/oil filter change as well. so, changed to NGK copper heat range 6 and the problem got worse? what i seem to think is that the plugs have improved spark and this just exentuates the same problem rather than making it worse. So i then reset the ECU and cleaned the AFM and a little bit better but still noticeably there. what do you guys think? i was thinking: - clogged injector - stuffed coil is it worth chucking a bottle of injector cleaner in? or is that stuff bad? please help! Waz.
  6. oh shit i just voted yes and would love to do it but i play cricket on saturdays so that may make me a withdrawl..
  7. re thread topic... there is an ad out at the moment in the cinemas by TAC (called TAC mockingbirds). i wasn't listening to it, bt it has a yellow R33 in it a numbr of times and at the end the rear end of the 33 is very porminant we are showing it at the start of tomb raider as i expect most cinemas will have to do as well
  8. well it has been done i changed the plugs to BCPR6ES plugs and they run great. it took me about 2 hours to do (i didn't remove the intake pipe over the top of the rocker covers, i just loostened it. it made life a real bitch though for cylinders 3 and 4!) BUT... it hasn't removed the miss that i have at idle.... grrrrrr... i'm about to get some stuff to clean the afm and then give the ECU a reset so we'll see...
  9. if that's real then someone needs to be hurt...
  10. 1) a high flow panel filter in the stock airbox with a pipe running from the bumper feeding cold air 2) bleed valve to 11-12psi 3) SAFC tuned on a dyno to get the best a/f ratios assuming your engine and turbo are in OK condition this shoud yield some more power to play with... and should cost less than $500 all up... Waz.
  11. my dad goes down every year with his fellow hayabusa club members and he loves it must be some reason he keeps going so i say GO FOR IT! at least once you have gone you can say 'well it was good but i wouldn't go back', or 'GREAT! bring it on next year!'
  12. if people need a roadworthy in the west, i can reccommend: Highpoint Auto's 9318 2076 White sttreet, Maribrynong Guy who owns/runs it is Paul. my dad has known him for years and he is actually a genuine bloke to deal with. Waz.
  13. i REALLY hate chicks that comlpain that their boyfriends are assholes, yet keep going out with them! hey... hot chicks... over here!
  14. can you PM the name of the shop i live near there and would like to steer clear of places that leave cars out overnight..
  15. yeah but if we were going properly down the metric path then by now items that we use would be in round figure centimetre values rather than just the inch value converted to centimetres... it annoys me really. why can't we just be individual???
  16. i don't have one on my 92 R32GTSt...!
  17. could be coil packs if its not the plugs
  18. if you get the head ported (the exhaust side) when you rebuild the engine then will that help?
  19. aren't BCPR6E(Y) plugs iridium? i'm pretty sure the rb20det is BCPR6ES...
  20. cheers mate still open for 'branded valves' if anyone has them
  21. and three cheeseburgers too...
  22. $50 on bambi please...
  23. farken idiots! i recently parked at uni where i was sideswiped by some idiot trying to park in the spot next to me! lucky the scratches were very superficial and you can hardly see them after 1 hour of cut-and-polish and buffing... one day i will catch the person in the act and they'll regret it!
  24. i have an r32 and on high-beams both light up...
  25. sonic, i referred to americans being anti-turbochargers meaning the general public and their views on turbocharged cars. this may not apply to those in the motorsport scene who actually know about engines and the benefits of forced induction it is common knowledge that the americans hate oil changes, thus nissan's possibly putting a V8 in the GTR so that their own habbits don't bury the reputation of such a great car when its purely a maintainance issue. and why of all japanese cars do they like honda's? no factory turbocharged integras/preludes etc. is there? it wasn't untill the introduction of the TT supra that america raised its eyebrows and even then the supra released in america had steel ehaust wheels and some other internal changes so that the americans couldn't shoot themselves in the foot trying to get more power with little knowledge of the engine. after all, it is the home of 7sec stroked-10L drag cars which you really don't see much elsewhere! Back on the thread topic... duncan, i think its the fact that many people are set in their old ways of hp etc. that they use this as the measurement. i don't think the larger number thing is too much of an issue. after all, we still say 3" exhaust rather than the centimetre equilivalent... Waz.
