  1. a 3" holesaw will go through the metal in 10seconds. just drill a hole, then feed your pipe through. you can get hose/pipe from any hose distributor, i got mine from IHF in welshpool for $20. black - flexible. cant say it made much of a performance difference but if you want to do it, takes about 15minutes all up
  2. haha we all know who the king of mid-range power is! go for a 12 brett. im not sure what time you 'should' get with specs etc. but a 12second pass definately has bragging rights!
  3. 1.06 exhaust housing. HKS manifold, HKS external wastegate
  4. i failed at freo, and passed at east perth oh and another thing i failed for was VIN number not visible. make sure you clean the block near where the gearbox joins on. they also made me colour it in with chalk to make it even more visible.
  5. but standard turbo, standard intercooler. a power FC doesnt automatically launch you into the 12s...
  6. was just wondering as im looking at turbo alternatives. the t04e i have now runs HKS everything but is too laggy - 4500rpm full boost
  7. i failed the pits first time for alot of stupid things; horn didnt work park lights didnt work steering rack boot cracked too low too loud blow off valve pod filter external wastegate cracked carbon canister 2-3 vacuum leaks not good! took me about 3 weeks to get everything done. hint: go to east perth, theyre easy
  8. line the boot with sound deadener. or try pointing the subs a different way... i dont get any rattles
  9. at what rpm would you expect full boost at with a 2835 on a RB25DET?
  10. so theyre scrubbers? im with macka; show us the bitches!
  11. yeh ive got retarded timing because i need to give my wallet time to recover from the recent ventures.
  12. you mean the thermostat... theres limited 'testing' you can do so youre better off leaving it alone. its a bit of a hassle to get it off/on as well
  13. yeh i did mine no worries green looks alot better than brown. you should have seen the sludge i flushed out of mine. japs dont know the meaning of servicing!
  14. remove radiator cap drain fluid in radiator drain fluid in overflow bottle remove heater hoses. flush through with water until it becomes clear. replace with new coolant start car with radiator cap off and heater on. run un to operating temp (this removes air bubbles) seal everything back up and your away!
  15. something macka gave me in a coke bottle
  16. well i couldnt notice any difference at all
  17. my car doesnt ping on 98 octane at 14psi (what its tuned to) whether its 12midnight or 12midday. i only used octane booster because drag racing or any race conditions puts added stress on the engine/car i dont believe it helped at all. because my car doesnt ping anyway, and i didnt run any higher boost or advanced timing...
  18. i know weve gotten a little off topic, but that is the point i am trying to make.
  19. true but if you cant reproduce the times on an everyday basis then what does it count for. woopdedoo you got a 9 second flat 1/4 mile time or a 700hp dyno readout, but if you cant have that as everyday power then wheres the fun in driving your car? (given that its a daily driver)
  20. what im saying is i think we should be aiming for a car making power off pump fuel, and being an everyday driver. it is easy to make big power from fuel c0cktails and unstreetable engine components.
  21. then you could still use the same argument. if you get a 12.5 on toluene this doesnt reflect everyday power. as on the street you cant reproduec the same power levels...
  22. wouldnt you be more concerned with the hassles of pre-mixing fuel every time you drive. shouldnt your daily driver (as most skylines here are) be one which can run on pump fuel, not a lab experiment.
  23. nice, well im leaving my heap of shit for 2 months cos im going overseas, but when i get back ill be in touch! how about a 100hp NOS kit, i gottah beef up the bottom end somehow, boost at 4500rpm really sucks
  24. could you throw some of that money at me
  25. its only $20 to change em
