  1. Because sometimes I do dumb shit and because I kept thinking about 6.6kWh worth of PVs wouldn't be fully enough if I'm consuming during the day as well as charging. So I did a thing, added another 5kW of PVs lol. Since there's a spare MPPT port, why the fk not?
  2. Oh I don't want to get into the details of the 1.5way, @Kinkstaah is the one that holds all the wealth.
  3. haha all good, also he took it out to Luddenham last year with me, on a 30+ degree day too. Car did not explode.
  4. It's got a Toshi reflash on it, on song with my portable wideband attached, it shows about 11.7 We did knock out 2x degrees off the CAS too. He's been driving it for years!
  5. Still on his car! He just runs 1 bar of boost through it though - he's keen on putting injectors, Nistune and winding a bit more into it. I'll report back
  6. lololol... you know what fixes all of that? Drive by Wire throttle Pretty sure mine does the same thing as well. You can stop it with your hands right?
  7. They are, a good friend of mine bought one to replace his blow factory turbo, running a Toshi Tune reflash. Just use their supplied water/oil lines and you're good to go. At the time, they were like $900 delivered.
  8. Food for thought, the stock oil filter thread is a 3/4-16 UNF, which has an ID of about 10 to 12mm (according to ChatGPT lol). Now compare than to an 10AN, which has an ID of about 14mm (Raceworks is 14.2mm, Speed flow is 14.27mm).
  9. You can set hard reserves on your battery system, and it can't be discharged past that.
  10. Have a read of this: https://www.energy.nsw.gov.au/households/rebates-grants-and-schemes/household-energy-saving-upgrades/connect-your-battery-virtual Just one thing, your battery setup also must be supported by the retailer, at the moment for Fox Ess, only Amber supports it however that should expand with time.
  11. If go with OVO or similar, you can buy electricity off peak periods of the day for next to nothing, i.e. when the sun is out and everyone is exporting and noone is consuming. I'm also planning to join a VPP and sell back during peak hours. Bro science stacks up, and also the battery inverter has a spare MPPT port, so I could add another solar array. I still have the roof space for at least another 7 panels.
  12. I love saying Samsonas lol. Maybe it's because I secretly want one, but also don't want to sell a kidney.
  13. I sense an out of control build thread coming up lololol. That 450kW goal will end up being 600 to 700kW LOL.
  14. Time will tell, they're doing all the admin stuff at the moment. I've submitted all the required details, photos, etc. I was under the impression that DC coupling is the best approach, i.e.: Solar Array -> Battery Invertor -> Battery Where as AC Coupling is simpler, however less efficient, i.e.: Solar Array -> Solar Invertor -> Battery Invertor -> Battery
  15. Long time no random post about shit. So I went down this deep deep rabbit hole of battery storage for the home, ended up locking in a 41.9kWh Fox ESS EQ4800 with 9 units stacked. Battery uses Lithium Iron Phosphate, similar to what you find in those deep cycle boat/caravan batteries. And yes, why did I go with a cheapie brand and not like Synergy? simply because I don't plan to stay at this house for more than another 3~5 years. The entire install, DC coupling (removal of existing invertor, connecting the current 6.6kW array direct to the battery invertor), new 8kW invertor is $6K all up (after all the rebates etc.). Going with this lot: https://www.aussiesolarbatteries.com.au/ It did seem a bit too good to be true, however seems like the Whirlpool community has vetted it and when it comes to this kind of stuff, they seem to be all over it: https://forums.whirlpool.net.au/thread/9pxj8482?p=38 I've requested for the battery to be installed outside, next to my meter board and not inside - rather have it combust and ignite outside lol.
  16. Apologies, wrong use of terminology. Yes, trigger the ABS unit / solenoids to allow the air pockets to advance. The Nissan unit, found in the R32~R34 and S14/15 seem very basic compared to other vehicles.
  17. here's a wild thought, could we not just directly power the pump itself? It looks like the relays up top, just feed two wires to the ABS pump. Being a 90s Nissan shit box, I can't imagine it being anymore sophisticated
  18. Yeah and hence my ghetto way of slamming the brakes, get the ABS to cycle, rebleed seems to be a sensible workaround.
  19. I am truly amazed someone on this planet was able to cycle the pump using a scan tool. I've always ghetto cycled them on Nissan 90s shit boxes by slamming the brakes and pulling the handbrake to agitate the rear wheels enough to cause a speed difference
  20. I'm good at suggesting things that cost more than what they should. https://www.brypar.com/shop/prime-r/prime-r-uprights/nissan-skyline-r32-34-gtr-front-upright/
  21. I saw on your IG page! Mate, how lucky are you - go buy the lotto.
  22. Would be easier to just run the RB25DET gearbox, all you would need to do is have the tail shaft / prop shaft shortened. S15 uses the rear ABS diff sensor for the dash speedo, so you can skip using the gearbox speed sensor.
  23. Replacing the entire system with a Bosch Motorsports ABS system fixes the issue @PranKhas Probably not the cheapest nor cost effective way to fix his ABS problem 😂
  24. You can swap between OEM position or closer to chassis. Allows the suspension arms to be a bit more closer to OEM height geometry. My LCAs actually point down now, where as before they were flat. Overall real noticeable difference is I can put down close to 440kW on the street with no wheel spin.
