    I saw a big silver volvo with a nismo sticker at k-mart today
  2. Next one is Tasman Cup - 11:00pm Thursday, March 9
  3. and the telemitary system was more advanced than today. they let you see all the temps and pressures.
  4. After waching it last night, I wish we still had Group-A. And the WTCC was Group-A.
  5. Is the bonnet carbin fibre? or is it just painted up?
  6. AFM measures the volume of air going into the engine, a map sensor guesses the volume by comparing revs, pressure, and throttle position. The volume of air is what realy counts, as it's the amount of air getting into the engine, not what pressure is behind it that gives you power. and say you hit full boost at ~ 4000rpm, the map sensor is going to read the same manifold pressure right till redline, and will have to guess the load axis for the ecu. i have no idea if that makes any sence. But do a search, it has been covered heaps.
  7. BMI have been known for rigging races for JDM cars to win. On one of the latest DVD's Z-tune come from 4th to win on the last corner. Don't get me wrong, I think BMI is a good watch, I just take the battle reults with a grain of salt.
  8. The mine's GT-R would eat it, remember, the Z-Tune is a full weight car, and the mine's is pretty much a stripped out track car.
  9. If anyone is to lazy to adjust the clock manually, I have a patch at work to fix it.
  10. Which GT40 was that, was it the Gulf livery one that is at the classic adelade?
  11. I ended up going PFC+Nismo AFM's cost me $2000 inc tune. I was looking a the D-Jetro path, but that would only save ~$300. And $300 seemed worth it as i'd have garentied drivability.
  12. Yer i know black is alright. I had the airbox out last weekend, and it was very clean. I got new turbo's going in, in acouple of weeks, so dead turbo's don't bother me.
  13. I don't know if there real N1's, or just the pov pack rips off's.
  14. 1988 Sandown 500 is on tonight. Upcoming: Motor Racing: 1959 And 1960 Bathurst - 10:45pm Friday, March 3 Motor Racing: 1970 Touring Cars - 11:00pm Saturday, March 4 Motor Racing: 1988 Sandown 500 - 11:30pm Sunday, March 5
  15. The only time I ever get smoke, is if it's a freezing morning, and I drive that car without warming it up, and it only blows when i have to put my food down to get up a hill ~500m away from my house. On boost I get a little black smoke. EDIT: Boost responce is still normal.
  16. lol what colour is bushfire gray, mine was mid gray, with a slight tinge of blue.
  17. Today I was driving through down (had only been in town). and suddenly when i was at a red light, some dude start calling me f**k face and f**k head, and i tuned around, and there was a big cloud of smoke coming from my car (not unlike the Seirra's blowing a turbo at bathurst). So I went over the intersection and pulled over (leaving the car running), and had a look. In the 10-15 secs I was round the back the smoke stopped coming out, and it hasn't done it since (~40km). Now i'm guessing it's an oil seal in the turbo going, and the engine sounded and was running fine, I wouldn't have probably noticed if the friendly bogan hadn't alerted me to it. I looked under the bonnet, and the car and there was no oil marks. So does it sound like a dieing turbo?
  18. J-Spec had an R32 the same as mine, but the wheels were 17" instead of 18". it's the only other car i've seen with my Panasport wheels on. And it had the N1 lights like mine. I did make me look twice.
  19. I know it's not a strocker engine, but i'd have it. http://www.mines-wave.com/products2006/pow...complete-e.html
  20. I replaced both, the RB26 ones are $800 each, or I got Nismo ones for $400 each (but you need a Power FC, or remapped ECU to run them). But you can replace just one. If you can be bothered, your difinatly better adleast trying to fix yours before spending money.
  21. my car was doing the same thing, replaced AFM's and it's all good.
  22. www.nismo.com.au sell them $1,060.00 for crank $380 for N1 Harmonic Balanver The R33 crank has a bigger oil pump drive than the R32.
  23. I know the Formula 1 cars put the calipars below the axil line, to lower the center of gravity. Pretty sure the Enzo and Carrera GT have there callipers right down low.
  24. If you remove the HICAS ECU, do you lose the speed sensitive power steering? Cause when the speed sensor wire to my HICAS ECU was cut my steering was in heavy mode all the time.
  25. I got a nice package in the mail today my new old HKS GT2530's. One needs a new core, so i'm taking it in to get looked at on Monday.
