It seems as though one confirmation of GG's oddness will do. I shall blacklist them immediately (backdated to 2 weeks ago).

EXPREME TURBINE OUTLET PIPE RB26DETT - R32 fitment issue
GTSBoy replied to Dunny's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
It would appear that your housings may have been rotated for some reason. -
getting spam on my SAU email
GTSBoy replied to ob1's topic in Site discussion - including Ideas/Feedback & Bugs
It's happening on many ozzie forums right now. Same same. There must have been an exploit on an older version of the 2 main board packages and the harvested addresses have only just gone into the (appropriate) spam lists. -
Just use rubber. Original rubber stuff lasted 15+ years before it started to shit itself. You will have any RB26 in pieces 3 times in that span of years from now onwards. Plenty of opportunities to check it.

Yup, welcome to Jap import life. To be clear, you should NEVER trust the indicated kms on the odo on any import. Everybody here has known about it for 20+ years. It's a fact of life.

R33 Gtst rear end knock

Make sure the jack is snug in its spot. Same with the toolbag. -
This is where I get to laugh at you. I am quite likely older than you. I am a combustion engineer. I mean that literally. I work for one of the best combustion companies in the world. Big burners. I know how to burn EVERYTHING. We treat methanol as a waste fuel (in pulp & paper mills for example). I can tell you that I have the ability to design a WI or WMI system on the scale of your little engine, or I can design one (like the WI system I designed for a pair of natural gas fired rotary kiln burners for NOx control) at the 80+MW range. You should just get back in your box. You're not playing with teenagers here, f**kwit. We know that WMI and E85 are damn near equivalent. One eyed cloud yelling like you've been doing is just funny.

Yuh, me too, except substitute Shell for Mobil, because that's what works better here. You have to keep in mind that different cities get the various branded fuels from different sources. Many are the same, but they're not all. I might have to do a number of tanks of BP or Mobil to see how it goes. It's been some time since I switched to near 100% Shell.

OH FFS. You can run out of magic boost juice in your auxiliary tank as easily as you can run out of E85. The consequences are the same. And it's not WI that you're talking about. You are frothing over WMI, which, if you look very closely, is mostly a fuel, not water. And it is nowhere near as easy to pick up a random bottle of methanol when you empty your tank as it is to get water. Worse, all of your vaunted integrated engine protection systems can easily be fooled by filling your magic boost juice tank with water alone, instead of WM, and then you run lean and it all goes to shit quickly. As Johnny said, we may be dumb dream boats, but at least we're not one eyed dumb dream boats.

Rb25Det Clutch Problem
GTSBoy replied to Bruno P's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
No. Button clutches are not friendly. The Nismo twin is a spring centre full face clutch. Sprung centre = cushion. Button = harsh Full face = nicer to use Twin = plenty of grip -
The CAS would need to be quite broken. If you haven't/can't isolate it to the CAS or any other part of the top end, use a lump of wood as a stethoscope and try to find the noisiest part.
-
It won't detonate running no load, unless one of the injectors is spraying only a tiny % of what it is supposed to. And even then, I wouldn't expect it to ping so that you could hear it and think it was mechanical noise. And it will also be very unlikely to ping audibly on E85 anyway.
-
I think you miss the point. EGT was weird for 1 tank of fuel. Then back to normal.

I put mine in the turbine inlet. On the actual turbine housing, just downstream of the flange. Stock Nissan housing hanging off of stock manifold. Because the manifold is "divided", the first best* place for a single TC is in the turbo itself. Also has the benefit of being relatively easy to get off and do the drilling and tapping without worrying about swarf going places it shouldn't. *best because you see true EGT, before the turbo has sucked anything out of it. Not being willing to stick the TC tip too far into the flow, though, it's not a 100% ideal installation. You'd be more willing to shove it 15mm or so into the flow in the dump. I've just got about a 5mm insertion of the tip.

Rb25Det Clutch Problem
GTSBoy replied to Bruno P's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
You found a 6 year old thread but didn't find any of the millions of recent threads where the best answer is the Nismo twin? -
R33 Gtst rear end knock
GTSBoy replied to admS15's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
CV, diff CW&P or internal gears, tailshaft centre bearing. Any and all of these things. -
The ECCS relay is getting its power pulled off. It's probably not wired up correctly. Once you start the engine there is supposed to be a signal out of the ECU to keep the ECU itself on. When you shut the engine off, the ECU keeps that signal on for some time after, then kills it, which kills the ECCS relay which properly kills the ECU.

I thought they did the thread change at both ends.
