tridentt150v

Sell u my ECU, came chipped from japan. No speed limiter, handles 16psi with nil ping with the right other mods [fmic, evc etc]. PM me if yr interested.

Water in the filter??

I'll keep you posted, as I said [somewhere on SAU] I'll give a blow by blow account of what I'm doing, so others can learn from my efforts/blunders.

Yeah, sort of. Got a Tomei adj. ex cam wheel ordered, already have an aftermarket/rechipped ecu, was going to get a power fc and hc, but the clutch f@@ked up in my 3.8 V6 Hilux=$900, so am making do for the moment with the ecu. Power fc later. Already got bigger injectors [yellow tops] and am pump[bl@@dy noisy], don't ask what sort, haven't looked yet, still learning about what I actually bought. I'm just a wage earner, so its steady as you go, plus I've gotta feed my other vices. I'll post a pic next to the std one when I get it back.

$1169.40, for a hiflow and ball bearing conv. from GCG Turbochargers. Hiflow=from a 51.2/71 to a 56.3/76mm, supposedly able to make 230-250rwkw depending on other mods.

I've got a std front pipe and cat, you can have on long term loan if you need it, Its not much, and maybe its not needed [you reckon your zoorst is OK], but its the only spare part I've got left -- been selling them as I go -- otherwise, good luck. Don't burn your tyres though, borrow another set and get it passed, then put yours back on. It's only one mongrel's opinion that they are worn, others may not even notice. As for the gf, you have to follow your own destiny and rely on your own sense of values, nobody can make your mind up for you. What you, you and your gf, do is your decision. The cancer, I hope results are negative, but you have support and well wishes from many here. One day you will look back on this, and it may well be a defining moment in your life, [now the feel good stuff ends] don't f##k it up.......................lol. Everybody has a 'crunch time' at least once in their lives, some of us have been there and done that, we can sympathise. Kick back, don't be too hasty, wait till the whole chapter is written, things will be easier.

Fuel pumps maintain a pressure head in the fuel system, it whines when it is working, it stops working when the pressure head level is reached, and then kicks in and starts pumping again when the pressure drops below ..... [a set level]. It will always be working when you are booting hard, speeding, racing etc, it will be intermittant when you are cruising, driving through traffic, or in car parks etc. A fuel pump [a good one] is --in theory--designed to give a constant pressure/flow of fuel at the vehicles maximum potential, when you are not using the vehicles maximum performance potential the pump does the job so easily it can have a rest [sort of]. Most fuel pumps fitted are actully overdesigned, so that you can fit your fmic, exhaust, biggish turbo etc and still retain the std fuel pump. You will eventually max them out when mods outstrip the fuel pumps ability to provide.

Sell you mine, cost $50, sell $30. Hardly done any work, I got sick of trying to buff the hilux, and my skyline doesn't need a buff.

When u check out the BoM site, take a look at the Canberra radar information link below the map. It explains how good the data is. Most of it is 'C' band radar and it has some limitations.

I can tell you about west westside, huge storms rolling through, hail, wind, lightning etc etc really big in Gundagai/Tarcutta area at 1400hrs. ETA Canberra 1600hrs estimated [by me], its heading your way.

Geez, Andrew I thought you was describing me in those first few lines [me being the drunk]. PS. I'll be in Canberra on 8th/9th, but I'll be in the Hilux [no turbo in the Skyline], so if anybody see's a bod in a jacked up white twincab with 33" tyres waving, that'd be me..............

Jeez, musta cut bad, I guess I'll have to apologise and grovell, when the 'femme fatal' don't talk they are really pi$$ed off.....................I'm a target now............sigh!!!!!!!! {walks away dragging knuckles in dust}

Had a one week delay [bl@@dy clutch stuffed up in the hilux, had to fix that first], but i've got the turbo out. Easy job [reassembly is always harder], a bit tight getting the lower front manifold/turbo nut off -- any hints without swearwords appreciated -- a 17mm spanner is the correct size, but it only just fits in there and you don't get much swing, socket won't fit, don't know how I'll go tightening it on assembly. Note, I had some oil in the induction side, so i guess the turbo was due for an overhaul anyway, so my upgrade was timely. So now its off to GCG turbos for an upgrade...............should be in following week, fingers crossed. Then an apexi power fc and tomei ex. cam pulley and a dyno, I'll keep everyone posted. Any torque wrench settings for the bolts/nuts helpfull too!!

Its womans work............................ [Now watch the wastelands go]

Veilsides been to a money making seminar...............................run by some rich septic tank or motivator I'd guess. [it's all a guess]. Good luck with it all. Couldn't do it myself, too much fun to be had all my life to sacrifice any of it. Anyway, I took the easy option, I got a good paying steady job that I like = Hydrography [don't ask, look it up].

OK, who did the hiflo skylinegal ???? and was it bb converted????

Full? or part? Congrats..................it all goes downhill from there. And wait till ya get your 1st car, then you'll know what being stone motherless broke really is !!!!!!!!!!!

Not the GCG hiflo????

Yeah, make him repeat type 4000 times 'I must not post whore or flood' !!! that'll show him. Ooohhh wait, no that's not going to work.............lol

Once he does a Odessey house or AA's course he'll probably be OK................hahaha

So how long does he get in the sin bin????

Allo Allo Allo, wot 'is 'en,,,,,,,,,,,, Ed ya betta pass that bong bottle over here.........

Sorry DANOOH, have to disagree. Even if you buy new copper washers they should still be annealed. They have been work hardened during manufacture, and continued to [much more slowly] harden in the air on the shelf while waiting for you to buy them. And if you consider that they may have been manufactured some time ago, they are hard. If you wish to research the topic further: http://www.iebs.8m.com/copper.html http://www.scientific.net/default.cfm?pdf=...n=0-87849-498-7 Both these papers are quite good, the first is a general overview, and the other much more in depth. So anneal and be happy..............

Did series I have airbag wheels???? thought it was only series II. PM sent
