Nissan a r382 race car from the late 60s :)

Tough bit of kit: http://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nissan_R382

they turbo'd them the next year for 900hp, but didn't race that one much due to the series folding.

Ants, the loaded accountant! Although, 1100 a week after tax isn't really a lot. :/

like I said before for over half my career I was on lots less than that and managed fine. It's also the right around the average wage. That said I don't spend a whole lot on booze or going out ect which can mount up real fast.

Wish I was loaded.......but I'm not. Before I had a mortgage and more importantly a family of my own I was like you Bunta and pretty much laughing all the way to the bank. And that was on almost half the income I am earning today. Now we are on a tighter budget but confortable but only just. Gone are the days were you could just live on one income stream when raising a young family.

Anyways enough of that. I left my wallet at Bunnings (again) and just managed to get it back! I can't be that intelligent to do this three times now!

Once Anna gets a job we will be laughing all the way to the bank. As of now is just comfortable. I am lucky in that at the end of the day I don't need to worry too much about the future so thats good.

Stop leaving your wallet ya silly bugger!

Back when i was a kid, my mum left her purse on the roof of the car on the way to a place on the other side of town. It managed to stay on the roof all the way through town (must have looked a sight!) only to fall off out the other side where the road got up to 100k's. luckily someone who lived there found it and gave it back (minus cash though... but to be fair kids could have found it and stripped it before they did). Certainly wouldn't get that in the city.

Good morning Luke.

$250 to save up for things? That's just if things were to remain the same...... you know thats not going to happen man. But trust me when i say this, when you have a family and own a GTR, EVERYTHING changes and is MUCH more expensive and $1150 will soon feel like $150!

So there you go........now when are we gonna see some baby Luke's :P

250 more then I have at the moment.

    • So, this shouldn't be such a mission, but there were a few tricks so I thought I'd post up a DIY for it. This was on a Q50 Red Sport but I doubt any other V37 model is very different (maybe just less steps for the intake heat exchanger hoses) I pulled the radiator out to flush it because the car was running hot at the track, but obviously the same steps apply for changing a radiator for any reason including an upgrade. If you are removing the radiator, you of course need to drain and refill, so have 5+ litres of blue coolant ready. You don't need to drain the intake heat exchanger to remove the radiator but depending on your plans you may need a couple of litres for that as well. You will also need something to deal with the auto transmission lines, I used 2x 8mm rubber caps on the radiator side, and a short length of 8mm pipe on the car side.....unless you can block these lines quickly you will loose AT fluid and it may be enough to hurt the transmission if you don't refill it. Other than that....lets go... "First, jack up your car". Yes really, and put it safely on stands. If you are not confident doing that you need to give this job to a mechanic
    • If the forester is anything like our old 2007 GTB Liberty, I could near on run ling Long's and "rate them", as no matter what, it just hung to the road, even when abusing it in a hard launch in the wet, or throwing it at corners.
    • LOL, all of the CAI like Craig I just need to put a hole saw through my bumper Done and dusted, the car runs, which is nice, I'll take it for a spin when the weather clears up Just need to put the bumper back on for good
    • Brooooo Please send ABS control unit schematic Please! R33 gts25t ABS (Its two plug ecu, black and white) wire colors possible? [email protected]
    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
