  1. Nozilla, Once you are on their record your farked. When I used to hoon around a little and had the odd speeding fine I was constantly pulled over, random breath test, where are you heading tonight sir & once defected. I was once pulled over for apparently no brake lights, pulled over had brake lights, lol, my guess it was the way I drove, i.e cruising using the gears to slow for roundabouts. This was a good 8yrs or so ago, Now its worse with their big computer screens, dial in your number plate see all your speeding fines and what breeeewww pull over sir.
  2. lol.. and 1068rwhp to boot.
  3. My last tank where I was quite stuck up it returned 11.6L/100. Thats pretty much the highest I will see and its due to driving to uni, the hills around uni always see it hard up on boost, generally in a low gear between 2-3000rpm. I love the low reving fast accelerating sound. If I drive it nice and hardly ever bring it up on boost it will touch 450-470km's per 50l. I don't do any open road driving, its all local to uni and back. Its so so tempting to bring it up on boost and feel that shove in the back with a slight twitch of the foot when accelerating out of every corner/roundabout traffic lights. This is what sucks the fuel. I drive it normal unless there's a reason to bring it up on boost. With my old rb20det injectors when the motor went in they would return around the 11L/100km's. They soon went to the complete sh*t with hard starts, flat spots and eventually the car would randomly stall at traffic lights when the car was cold. Fuel consumption at this point was around 13.5L/100km's no matter how light I drove it. I dropped a new genuine o2 sensor in to it and replaced injectors with flow tested R34 gtr items. They flowed up as 480cc on std rail pressure. Over the std rb25det base map my whole light load area's are running 3-5degree's more ignition. I have leaned it out ever so slighty everwhere under light/medium load over how shaun set it up which was for response/performance. i.e 13:1 up until 0psi where it goes straight to 11.8-12:1. My leaning out didn't do much I saw ~10-20km's per tank. May have just been my easier driving as I was watching myself a little more.
  4. Interesting.. So they 100% do replace the carrier and thrust bearing. Finally to the bottom of it.
  5. lol.. Not a silly question.. I've bolted the clutch up but not torqued the bolts up completely only to remember as the motor/gearbox was almost in.
  6. OOOOKKKAAAYYY THEN!
  7. I'd say it was the insane in the membrane G forces holding the fuel up against the back of the tank resulting in fuel surge. <walks off humming> Insane in the membrane Insane in the brain! Insane in the membrane Insane in the brain! Insane in the membrane Plenty insane Got no brain! Insane in the membrane Insane in the brain! Do my shit undercover Now it's time for the blubba Blabba To watch that belly get fatter Fat boy on a diet Don't try it I'll jack your ass like a looter in a riot Much too fat like a sumo slammin' that ass Leavin' your face in the grass </walks off humming>
  8. Bl4ck32, I noticed with the new clutch I had fitted the thrust bearing sat noticably forward on the carrier compared to the previous fairly std organic clutch. I've noted the same with heavy duty clutches in the VS and previous cars. My guess is, if your OS clutch was bought new to suit an RB25 it would simply come with a thrust bearing, no carier. That thrust bearing would sit in the correct position on the std carrier in order achieve the correct positioning on the rb25. Unless its impossible for the given clutch setup to use the std carrier with a specific thrust bearing. That does sound unlikely as there's nothing special about a carrier that simple modification (when manufacturing) of the thrust bearing couldn't sort out. Which brings me back to Huddy's problem... Were you given the option to purchase the suitable thrust bearing with your clutch? It may be possible the clutch has been designed around the std rb25 thrust bearing. I find this unlikely as its easier/cheaper/quicker to make a generic clutch that works in all applications for say an 8" clutch, then use the thrust bearings positioning to achieve the movement required to engage/disengage the clutch. As you stated you are running the nismo thrust bearing that is smaller and different to standard obviously throwing another spanner in the works. Get on to Tilton and find out where you can obtain a thurst bearing suitable for an R33 Series 1 RB25DET Push type gearbox. If they say use the std item.. you beauty. damn back to my pl/sql home work.
  9. Which carrier are you using? The one suited to the rb25 push type box?
  10. Slip has nothing else to do other than the clutch. If you have had to play with the pivot its 100% completely obvious using the old thrust bearing setup is 100% not suitable. Generally when you buy a clutch they come with a thrust bearing. Every clutch I have bought has. Grab the suitable thrust bearing that should have came with the clutch, throw in the origional pivot and it will work a.ok.
  11. It appears you have fiddled with a couple of things that really shouldn't be fiddled with, as we do from time to time. Return it to standard, run the standard fork, pivot ball and slave cylinder. Standard everything. I believe this is where your problems stem from. Get the correct thrustbearing for the clutch, don't try to fit one that is not designed for the use as it will stuff the clutch as what happened to bl4ck32's os twin plate when jms fitted/bodged it up to mattr's car. Bl4ck32, Who was it that sorted out the thrust bearing for your clutch when it went in for balancing with the motor?
  12. lol.. Sorry Max I forgot I was supposed to return your call after I was up on the roof yesterday cleaning the gutters and checking out my central splitter. Did you sort out the small problem with it not starting?
  13. linky no worky.. requires login.
  14. I've had a play with a dual core system. Once you use one you will never want to go back. I quite often encode video, backup dvd's and what not while surfing the net or doing home work compiling large java programs etc. A single processor system really slows down to the point where the video display updates like your running an old trident 9660 vid card. Push the x2 3800+ to a nice safe 2400mhz (x2 4600+ speed) on air and be happy with it.
  15. A few of the games currently support dual core. So slowly its getting there.
  16. Check its not leaking oil. I had my clutch slip easily when my front input shaft seal was leaking/seeping. I pulled off the clutch and it was a complete mess. Replaced seal, no more slip. But yours sounds extreme, so likely not related. :S
  17. Bl4ck32, The X2 is the way to go with the next gen games.
  18. I'm in playing Live for Speed now. Have a little server up and running. SkylinesAustralia
  19. I've been playing the Live for Speed a little Madaz.. Not to bad starting to get fairly decent. Sort of.. lol We should organize a live for speed game, race, drift what ever. I think drift is a little hard at the moment.
  20. I've added the clan server to my favourites, to my disappointment no one is in there. Decent ping of 45 that will drop a little once in the game. Xfire tends to report higher than actual pings.
  21. Agreed, it is every man for himself and almost NO team work. Allthough when you do get a good side its so easy to kick arse. Its awesome when all the medics, ammo support work together and you literally blitz the other side with only a handfull of men spawning on the team leader instead of spawning else where in order to have a joyride in the helli or jet.
  22. I personally think $600 is a little too much. I would think $400 is reasonable on the basis of what you can get if you buy the system new. $109 - AMD Semphron64 2800+ $105 - Gigabyte K8NS 754 M/board $069 - PC3200 Kingston Ram 2 x 256mb = 512mb Total (OR $139 for 1GB) $065 - Gigabyte ATI 9250 128mb Agp Vid Card $099 - AOPEN 350w Decent quality Case and PSU $080 - LG 4167B DVD Burner $075 - 80GB 7200rpm 8mb Cache Hard Drive $050 - Second hand 17" Monitor ----- $652 Selling computers is sad. I would most likely keep it and turn it in to a linux box. Run IPCOP on it and use the 40gb had drive as a nice little web cache There are people that have $600 don't look in to what else is available and may stumble upon your system for $600 and buy it so, give it a shot if you sell it BONUS.
  23. Keen for what? An ass whooping?
  24. Who here plays where? I'm always on one of the internode servers. For those that haven't seen the other thread I'm Sgt.Cubes.
  25. I'm in.
