    This was what I was invisioning, or Pete cutting a beer can up and hose clamping it around the catch can! Ha ha ha

    To roll with the Wine fuelled racing theme, I think those catchcans need to be made to look something more like a beer can...

    Gap your plugs down to 0.8mm What coil packs are in it? I assume they weren't replaced when the engine was rebuilt.

    What are the plugs gapped to? Will it rev up top fine at light throttle?

    One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!

    I did 700kms in the cruiser, not last week but the one before. Used 2 fuel filters. A third filter is sitting in it ready to go. Currently can't use the sub tank as it has heaps of shit in it and I didn't want to be swapping another fuel filter while I picked up my new portable, dual axle, steel deck for the house.

    The Plazmaman setup is what I originally had on my RB25 too. Worked really well. In fact,I think I still have it in the garage. Then I went over radiator when I went to the RB30 as it wouldn't clear the bonnet otherwise.

    I reckon I push my Skyline further back and forth in the garage than you drive yours!

    Nah, lots of insurance repairs on V36 and V37 for pedestrians deployments. Reasons ranging from possums, to extremely severe potholes have deployed them. However, paying for the full repair can still be upto $5k AU some people have noted!

    List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter?

    Shimmed or shimless, still solid, no hydraulic pump up stuff.

    They have said food will be limited. Mainly meat pies and sausage rolls from memory. But they have a coffee van!

    If you want to test it under temperature, I think you should enter the One Raceway day tomorrow with Duncan!

    That looks great Mark!

    You now say stumble, but you said cut out before. Will it slow rev through the cut/stumble? What gap were your spark plugs set to when you them in?

    It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!

    What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.

    I knew Andy from about then, it did some cool stuff. By 2005/2006 era, he also implemented closed loop ignition timing tuning. In 2004 it was pretty cool, being with him when he was doing automated fast self learning tuning!

    Also, it is just about triangularity. The less angle, the easier it physically is to do. Think of the amount of slip you're getting, as how hard you need to push an object. More slip, equals pushing way harder. Then the ramp is how steep the hill is. The Accel is less slip, which means it takes less pushing (less slip) to get it to be able to push apart. However, the steeper sides on the decell means it will take a lot more pushing (slip) to get it up the ramp.
  21. MBS206
    It's the angle of the ramp from the vertical. You're measuring from the horizontal. To convert, take 90* minus your angle reference = Nismo Angle.
  22. MBS206
    It's about how easily it can move it too. It needs more force to go left being at a steeper angle. So since it needs more force, it's going to mean it takes a lot more effort (slip) to get it to push out. As to the right is easier to spread, it's going to be easier for it to lock up.

    Hey! My achi! I'd probably 3D print some. Or just pull the pad springs out and look at them

    This reminds me, I've actually had this exact issue before too. Unfortunately my voltage regulator was happier to work part of the time. The easy way to spot when it wasn't working so well, was the dash lights also got brighter.

    To add to this, I'd nearly suspect that if this IS happening on your own car, I'd seriously investigate the harmonic balancer. It's surprising some of the noises/oddities that occur in cars, can be an early sign of a harmonic balancer going. This would be especially so since the part driving the loaded fan, is the pulley on the harmonic balancer. So any weird harmonics being caused by the fan, will be transferred to the harmonic balancer, if its getting old, or is a poor cheap designed one, it may not be sorting out the harmonics there, which would then be sent straight through the crank to the clutch.
