hey all

long time no chat!!

as some of you may or may not know, i used to make aluminium airboxes, heres the original thread.

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/in...ic=75876&st=100

as some of you may or may not know, i stopped making them due to lack of energy involved.. i spent all my free time on them and being a mechanic at a busy dealership during the day, i just didnt have the energy to get them done... and then i moved house, now im set up in the new house and have changed from being a mechanic and am now in spare parts, which is cruisy and less stressful.

ive been talking to some people and am going to get the boxes cut a sheet metal fabrication shop, that was the hardest part, cuttin them out neat.. with them pre cut, all i have to do is bend, put together, and polish and also mean i can do more boxes for more people and more cars.

im trying to find out about anodizing, i was goin to do it myself but its a lot of work and need alot of room. so if i can find mob that do it, they boxes will be available in anodized colours, which will look sick.

bare with me all, things are under way and will be better than before.

thanks to all the people who have supported me and sorry to those who have sent pms which have takin me ages to reply to, i havent been on this site for a while, now i have the energy, im having a red hot go at making this work.

cheers

Linton

    • Hi GTSBoy, Excuse my ignorance but what does a "Bad" Knee point mean ? 
    • HFM BM57 has a "bad" knee point, IIRC. It's not the same thing as the later R chassis MC.
    • The ATTESSA is functionally identical to R34; there were a bunch of JDM models that continued ATTESSA including Fuga/Q70, Skyline/Q50, Cima etc as an option. All with Auto only and I think mostly for snow regions. AFAIK there were no AWD VR30DDTT sold in Australia - it is on my to do list to check regs for racing a LHD car in Targa/ATR/AASA/CAMS events because if I can get the auto to work it would be interesting to run a 4wd car The Ecuteck TCM tuning is the same model as their ECU tuning, they already have it for R35 and Dose's favourite, BMW. You buy "points" to allow your computer to be tuned, buy either a bluetooth (phone app) or bluetooth+USB+Key (phone and PC) dongle, and pay for a tune that will be locked to your tuner ( ). You can also access the tuning software yourself but 1. it is mega expensive and 2. these computers have a billion parameters that intersect, so how could you ever spend enough time on it to get a decent result.
    • Or, is it a case of what it is like owning an R series Skyline? NFI what the previous owner has done or fiddled with... Ha ha ha After reading through this thread, I went on a bit of a research about the Q50/Q60. Now I'm quite intrigued by them! Is the AWD in them more like a WRX where it's always AWD, or is it more like the ATTESSA in the GTRs? By the sound of this TCU tuning, this sounds like a case of someone has made some real software for it, and you just need the right piece of hardware, and then you license that specific vehicle/TCU. Or is this a case of the software will be really expensive so only a few tuners have it, and you still have to pay a license per vehicle?
    • By popular demand.. it was a coil. Got my hands on 1 new OEM coil, replaced with the one that made the less noise difference when I unplugged it while the car was running and started the car up. No stutter and the engine light was gone. I guess I’ll buy the other 5 they have lol
