Beer Baron

I have to add this. open the second last pic. stare at the turbine wheel for a sec or two, then look to part of the carpet in the pic. now it will look like the turbine wheel moves. unless I had one too many pills with breakfast....

yep all tyres gone. sorry for the other guys I didn't get pics last night as promised. got home very late. I WILL take pics tonight and upload.

I'm sorry but you are clearly lying. I mean this guy has a 1.3 million dollar house and a 5 year old jaguar from hong kong... he must be right.

I reckon either the dark grey they have on the latest 307 R8 commodore, or the orange like on the garage saurus car.

yeah of course. they play it a couple of times. they play marco's series too. busch series. hell they even play the farkin craftsman truck series which marcos used to race. nothing gayer than watching utes race on ovals that look to be about 100 meters long.

trent what's the difference between the Blitz SBC spec S and the Spec R? is the spec S not Dual solenoid? spec S any good. edit: got off my arse and checked for myself! I was right. Spec R is dual solenoid, Spec S is single.

it's not the distance that causes it, it's the shape of the inlet. and most people agree there is no need to stage them all, it's purely 6 and to a slightly lesser extent 5 that are most affected. again, it's not a linear distance thing. is the shape of the inlet directing more air into 5 and 6. exteral FPR wont make any discernable difference. fitting an aftermarket fuel rail and splitting your fuel feed so that you have a feed in each end and the reg take off the middle will even it out. it's a know thing that 5 and 6 are more prone to problems in an RB26. as I said it's a combination of things (more heat, more air flow, less cooling, less fuel). the software is only of any benefit if you want to tune the car yourself, or if you want to do some datalogging. most tuners in Aus that tune Power FC use this software so if you are getting the car tuned somewhere it's probably not worth buying it. yes you can sort out the injector variances using the compensation. simply have your injectors cleaned and tested. they will give you the flow figures in CC/Min at a given pressure. if all flow 420cc but one is 440cc then you would leave 5 on 100% and trim the other one down to 95%.

well some people in japan also told me they are not compatible. It's possible they are not. remember the Bee-R is basically an interceptor... so yes it does have to work along side the PFC. only one way to find out though.... but it and tell us what happens. to be honest they are a bit of a wank. they don't do much except cause some slow damage to your car and make you like like a bit of a tool. unless we are talking for a dedicated drag car, in which case go for it.

you are completely wrong mate. the link you posted talks about carnets for overseas citizens who want to bring their car out here to drive around, then leave. some bits from the link: and to get one you have to pay a security equal to 100% of the value of the car to the issuing authority. AND it still does not allow you to "I believe that if you owned the car overseas you can register the same plates here." you are so far wrong it's not funny. actually it is a little bit funny.

yep, at leat fot this one race he'll be in nextel cup which is where the big dawgs (inc monty) are.

yeah don't worry steve is a cheap shout. just little him have a sip of your apple martini and he's good to go.

forget helmet on the skidpan, if I were andrew I'd be wearing a helmet to the pub... could be some pissed of mehicanos looking to give a little touch up...

it's well know that cylinders 5 and 6 run leaner than the other 4. and it has been tested using individual wideband sensors in each manifold runner. the reasons are 2 big ones. the same of the plenumn chamber means 6 and 5 get more air than 1-4. also being an in-line 6 it has quite a long fuel rail which with a reg at the front (cyl 1) means the cylinder at the back can run a tiny bit down on pressure. also 5+6 are known to run hotter which means that their detonation threshold is lower than the front cylinders so a little extra fuel in 5+6 is some insurance against detonation. saliyas tuner applied that RB26 knowledge when tuning his PFC. lag time is the response time of the injector measured in mili-seconds. it's different at different voltages as the injector can be opened and closed faster with more voltage. logit is http://www.fc-datalogit.co.nz/ it is a box and some software that allows you to interface your laptop with your Power FC for tuning. finding 6 injectors that flow the same is not hard. you can flow some up untill they flow as much as the ones you are comparing with. I've had a few sets tested now and there is not much variance, especially if they are brand new.

have you called them?

why are you posting with a banned avatar?

lol, that is a a tad cheaper than the ARC one..... the question is though, is it actually titanium, or is it "titanium look"?

I have a hairy back if that counts?

yep 8mmX1.25mm pitch thread.

nice. I don't know of APX, but I do have an similar looking ARC one for the GTR (I have the one on the left).

lol, 315. must be a high score.

yeah that all makes sense. and the correction does make sense too if he wanted to run 5 and 6 a tad richer. I did the same thing on my car except I just cleaned and flowed my injectors and put the two highest flowing ones in 5+6.

I understand what you are saying and it's partly correct but what you need to remember is the PFC doesn't know what injectors are in there. all it's calcs are based off what was in the car standard. why your car has those corrections in there I can only assume some of your injectors flowed poorly so the tuner scaled some back. so it pays to always work off a % of 440 CC injectors. (for a GTR). and yeah generally with standard injectors there is no correction already applied but I can see in some cases there may be. to be honest you don't really need the correction at all. you can leave it on 100% and just tune it as needed. the other issue is, if you had correction applied but sitll using stock injectors then I can only assume it was done so because some flowed badly, but to be honest it doesn't make much sense to me to apply correction with standard injectors, it just should have been tuned better. and the problem you have now is if you are applying correction to the old correction you are carrying over the compensation for different flowing injectors, but your brand new injectors shouldn't have that problem.

sounds to me like either the cam is bent, or possibly the bolts or maybe (big maybe) the caps themselves. when you removed them you should have been lossening them in the correct order and lossening them bit by bit, not all at once.

Sorry I didn't put this in the title (bad baron!) but I am located in Sydney, north shore and of course pick-up is fine for any of the stuff. Sorry for all those that have had to ask.

well gordon probably has about 30 cup cars and 20 busch cars so it's no great skin off his nose and I guess makes him look like less of a wanker.
