  1. If you have thoughts of putting a FMIC on, do it before you do the SAFC, you'll only have to retune afterwards otherwise. Also, boost it up before you get it tuned (Boost to a happy level, around 10PSi should be plenty) Then tune it.
  2. When you're hung like GTST, you don't need support...
  3. Missfire when? At idle? Full throttle low rpm Full throttle high rpm low rpm low throttle? Where, what how? I've had engines "miss" at idle due to low compression on a cylinder.
  4. FMIC Suspension/Brakes
  5. I call happy Dyno If making 200RWKW, you should be able to push a flat 13.0 at around 110MPh... Head to the drags, see what the black top dyno says you really have.
  6. I'm still yet to see valid evidence of how no BOV actually damages a turbo.
  7. I've been told unleaded burns that colour that those two valves are, but I've never pulled a head off to tell.
  8. it sounds like simon and PM-R33 have two different problems Simon sounds like his just can't get enough air around the turbo. So it boosts up some more. PM-R33 just sounds like pure boost creep.
  9. Get some one to hold the revs up and turn the air con on. Whilst they do that, watch the compressor. Does it suddenly stop spinning?
  10. For the lack of kick, are you sure it's a boost leak? If it were leaking, it'd be chewing through the fuel. Your VCT may have become disabled some how (Bad electrics/plug off) My car at the moment, doesn't have VCT turning on until 2250 RPM, and you can really, REALLY feel it kick in, and when you watch the boost guage, as it kicks in, boost climbs dramatically (When cruising, it'll sit at atmospheric, as soon as the VCT closes it'll jump to 2 - 3PSi or there abouts.
  11. What state are you in?
  12. Jason from WMC was running 370RWKW, did a 10.8 with backing off at the 300metre mark His motor lasted 8months. He just kept pushing more and more nitrous down it's throat to find the limit. 370RWKW was the GASLESS power. The RB25 when setup right, WILL last along time. The issue is, getting it setup right.
  13. The other funny thing is, most males rate them selves as a better then average driver... Also, limiter, in fourth, on a public road, daily driving. You're a f**king nut and deserve to have your car impounded permanently.
  14. It's under the strut bar. It isn't an issue. Also, Wolverine: That's the exact same one I run. I don't find hose clamps are needed to be loosened at all.
  15. Oil filler cap isn't that big of a problem I have a pipe much similar to that When I'm doing oil, I'm doing plugs at the same time, so that pipe is off! If I needed to "top up" you can still get the cap off easily enough.
  16. Mine sits between 75 - 80degrees, depending on outside temp. Haven't had a seriously hot day and the laptop plugged in though yet. I might be swapping to twin thermos soon aswell, and ditch the viscous. Viscous = power sapping mongrel... Plus, it looks like it's about to explode...
  17. I bet you do with out realising it. Things from missing blind spot checks, not indicating. Even pulling up in a turning lane with out an indicator. Following a car too closely. The funny part I found, was that those who'd held there licence the longest (Or, greater then 1 year on Open licence) were the most likely culprit for running up the back of someone, why, they were over confident, and following too closely. And accelerating as hard as you can DOES NOT use the least petrol, but neither does the absolute putt putt, the best point is when you are running at the most efficient RPM with the right amount of throttle. To work this out, you need to monitor your duty cycles. As simple as that.
  18. Okay, got the stat SLIGHTLY wrong, but: Crash research shows that all drivers, even you, can and will make mistakes. It is estimated that drivers make a mistake that: Could lead to a crash about every three kilometres. Leads to a near crash about every 800 kilometres. Leads to a crash about every 980,000 kilometres. Page 30/31 of 94 of the Driver Qualification handbook Start driving like a tool, you manage to lower those distances DRAMATICALLY!
  19. Sorry Jas, the stats actually was each average person. I'll try find them again for you all. It was one person out of everyone, it was each person makes a mistake approx every 3km. Each has a near miss approx every 8km.
  20. No sweety, I'm just going to keep carrying yours around for you, as I don't want you to hurt yourself lifting something so heavy for you. Seriously, it's a public road. The amount of people out there in peak hour traffic that jump and change. If you're hammering it, and they change lanes, it's an accident waiting to happen. I actually found some good statistics not too long ago on the RTA site. Approximately every 3 KM someone makes a mistake that could lead to an accident Every 8KM someone makes a mistake leading to a near miss. So if you drive 10km to work, you're bound to make 3 mistakes, with one leading to nearly having an accident. You start flogging your car, those distances drop down quite a bit lower. Wisen up or go buy your self a push bike
  21. I have loud as shit induction noise while I'm still at 10mmHg! You don't even wanna hear it when it comes on boost! It sounds like a pure animal if you're driving alone beside it. Mind you, 3" stainless pipe from motor to filter helps with this... Then I must also have a "noisy" pod...
  22. What's boost? I rarely use it... Probably about once a day I hit it, and it's due to a VERY poorly designed on ramp near me, speeds usually drop to 40 odd km/h in a 90 zone... Using 3rd gear I pull onto the outer lane with a decent amount of throttle (Mind you, I do it in a safe gap too!) and that's normally only low boost too. I rarely hit full boost, maybe once or twice a week. I just baby it, it's driven daily, and there's no need to hit full boost on the way to work.
