  1. Ok, i stand slightly corrected but that was why i wrote "probably" instead of "Will not"
  2. Yea, unless you are over 25 and no accident history for 3-5years Shannon's probably won't insure you. Just saying.
  3. Congrats. 1. Rev limiter is at red line unless it has been changed in a aftermarket ECU or BeeR* Rev limiter. It is probably running a safe mode map. 2. Not sure 3. even if the boost controller is connected it may not be working correctly. Normally when idling it should be -18 or something like that depending on what the unit of measurement is. Although the std. vacuum gauges are crap i take it that it reads well into the negative unlike the boost controller? Are you running std. ECU? So it literally cannot go above 5k rpm in second and above? Is the car idling ok?
  4. Not bad at all, sounds like i will have to remember that one!
  5. 96 tons of uranium/plutonium is roughly the amount used per reactor, no wonder they were really worried about the spent fuel ponds. Sure sounds like a lot not to mention the spent fuel ponds too! The source was a retired manager of a British nuclear power plant on a ABC program, if i remember correctly.
  6. Volumetric efficiency, Thermal efficiency and Mechanical efficiency are all good reads especially in relation to engines, IMO.
  7. More like my stupidity, probably the wrong section to joke around in.
  8. So the dyno was lying? EDIT: Just found this and it explains quite well. "So, in a nutshell a front mount intercooler cooler upgrade will NOT make HP in your Supra, but it will free-up power that has been lost from inefficient intercoolers and most importantly it will maintain power for a longer period of time and reduce the chance of deadly detonation." http://www.suprastore.com/dofronmounin.html
  9. Yes it went from 153rwkw to 183rwkw +\- 2kw Y is there a problem?
  10. So whats the cost of a second hand engine compared to all the goodies hanging off a pre-built car? I'll tell you, it's a lot of time and money. Unless as stated you were looking to get your hands dirty + know some people who can help with stuff (cheap parts, cheap tuning, etc). Look either way, TAKE YOUR TIME and at least get it checked over by a mechanic you trust who knows these types of cars or at least RAA, etc with compression test and anything else they can check. GL
  11. More lag, about 20-30Kw gain with standard ecu. Did alter drivability for me, only because before the FMIC was installed i was very happy with near instant spool with just pod and full turbo back exhaust. GL
  12. Probably buy a car already built with aftermarket goodies, save a lot of time + money. Wish i did
  13. Basically a CAS can be a Cam/Crank Angle Sensor it is used to know where the Cam/Crank is during it's rotation + speed. If its not working properly the motor is going to run like sh*t. EDIT: have a read. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crank_sensor
  14. How hard do you drive it and how long? Do you participate in drift/track days? On boost for long periods of time? Ceramic Coat, FTW!

    So no garage/shed to put it in? Or can you park it in backyard? I dont know your situation. Maybe park a street over and get picked up along the way?
  16. Terry, i was not serious about my question. I was joking, it's called humor.
  17. So how much do they pay you to trawl this forum?
  18. I think DNA audio sell them.
  19. That's the one! Gee maybe i should get into caravan sales?????
  20. Spotted silver R35 on port wakefield road around 2pm. R32 silver with SAU stickers and CC plates on port river express way around 4pm. Both looked great!
  21. Have you read these threads? http://www.skylinesa..._1#entry2410610 http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/10266-odometer/page__hl__trip+meter To refine your searches go into "general maintenance" or what ever is applicable then use search function. Hope those threads help.
