Hey Nicky in all seriousness I do like the skevy. It's something different and I admire you for doing it. And you did it well. I only say the things I do because we have a joke about it.

I like my nissans but a good car is a good car ill even air that ford make some decent cars and holden not so much anymore

But it is nice to see someone put that much love Into a car

Don't know if I said it before but good job on the conversion :) it's a good car in my eyes :P

Except that spedo.. Fix that sh*t

this sums up how I feel.

nik knows it.

but he pays me out for spinning bearings, so is all gewd.

Haha no need to go full love, if the hate stopped I'd think something was wrong with you gays. I was just clearing it up for #...

So what's the go today?

Pay you out because I know the feeling, wars that strange noise get home *knock knock I knock knock*

And yes it's like random people that come into a servo at the same time for coffee/redbull in the morning lol

No not exactly, just giving a bit of insight as to why I don't ark up over it :thumbsup:

And because no ones means anything by it, sure some may not like or ever consider doing such a thing. But each to their own. Biggest upside i can see to the conversion is the weight loss, and displacement increase is a good combo......but i will never yield to the auto box idea, every auto should go burn in a fire and get replaced for manuals or DSG's.

Your speedo doesnt work? A work mate had (recently stolen) a V8 hilux 4x4 which had speedo issues because he needed an adapter for the computer to speedo.

Chris and I must of been going mad on the way home, we had conversations about everything from "why some shops are stupid as their target market is so tiny" to singing Allanis Morreset in falceto for 3 minutes... God damn two light beer

God damn two light beer.

#ruthless badassery

so true...I had a headache after 3.....terrible.

Back to your car, the Hilux drank fuel like a fish till he got that module sorted, something about the computer not knowing how fast it's actually going.

More to the point, regardless of what I say it's always going to be crap in youse guys eyes hell it could run a 10 second pass and would still get payed out. People tend to knock what they don't understand, so you keep telling yourself that your cars better than mine... Cause at the end of it all I couldn't give a rats ass what the Nissan fanboys think of it. Real car people appreciate everything.

Well said,

I'll pay out on you anyway, but i'll always have a soft spot for the abomination, however small it may be, might have been those 2 weeks or so i had, alone, with it...

We were going crazy, but were sane enough to know it. Morning all

I have been paying him out on his car long before the ls1 went in. Nick knows it just a bit of friendly banter, just the ls1 gave me more material to work with :P

I mean the first time I met him, he rolled up loud as drone coming from the car with big arse chrommies on it. Then saw the p plates and realize it was an auto. But for some reason I kept inviting him to runs we were doing and to drinks sessions and my birthday parties.

Nope, like i said to Chris in the car ride home there's no point reacting to it, I don't have to prove anything to you.

Plus in when your not grouped up in your little clique I know the car has a lot of admirers and I've had alot more positive stuff said than negative... And all the negative stuff only comes from narrow minded Nissan purists anyway.

I'm not a Nissan purist. I just don't see the point in taking the motor out of a heavy and underpowered car and putting it into another heavy and underpowered car.

What is the point of half the shit people do to cars though if not for their own satisfaction or just to be different?

    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
    • Bloody apprentices! 🙄
    • Not sure yet.  Was considering speedtek because it was rated to 800hp, but when I did some research about him I don't think I will go for that🤣 So maybe giken gear set, but I'm afraid it won't be strong enough🙄
