My thoughts are that you dont breathe even on my car without my permission :)

I started a big long thread on another forum about people leaning on our cars. Some people honestly don't care and it shits me because I take soo much time and effort to make my car look nice everyweekend and then to have some disrespectful person put there arse on it pisses me off.

We asked one person repeatedly to move one night and he didn't. This person now knows not to come near mine or andrews car.

Well you all better NEVER let your car's out of site..... Or just keep em in the garage....

(he hehe he)

I'd be more worried about someone opening their door too fast... or letting the door rub the side of your car as they move stuff in there car...

that worries me more than someone looking or taking a photo of my 'line... with or without anyone in front or on the bonnet....

( Me think's I'm going to make Lot's of friends now....!!)

I have a total maternal instinct towards my car - i am as protective as all hell!! Lets just say that if i caught someone doing that to my car there wouldnt be much left off them - its as simple as this - it aint yours so dont touch! I dont mind people looking at it - quite often come out of the shop to have someone looking at my skyline - thats fine I dont mind.

I dont think i could own a show car - i dont know how the owners can sit back and watch everyone put their greasy little paws all over the car.

Anyway im coming across as a total bitch when im not except when it comes to people over stepping the mark where my car is concerned.

i wouldnt mind standing in front but as soon as someone touches my car they r asking 4 it! unless they asked me first!

Yeah i agree wit ya on that one lozza150 i hate careless pricks who just swing their car doors open just coz they dont care about their car! ive seen it happen so many times it happened 2 me once but i was in parents car and i hear a giant bang as im sittin in the car park and so i turned a round and yelled wat the F*CK! but then i felt bad coz it was a old lady! but then wen i saw the giant dent she left i was pissed and shoulda said more grrrrrr dumb cow!

    • Yeah I suspect even if you hold airmass per cycle/cylinder constant if you get too far away from stock you're still going to have problems running the factory tune within the bounds of the factory load scale. Cams, different displacement/rod ratio, etc. I'm just lucky that the GTIII-SS with wastegate boost + CA compliance cats is pretty much equivalent to stock turbos. When I have actual space I can finally get it tuned and modify the fuel system for flex fuel to 100% handle any detonation concerns when cranking the boost to whatever those dinky turbos can put out.
    • I would say no, why, because my daughter, who also lives in Goulburn, hasn't recommended us going there Pity, as we miss all the German joints around in Sydney, actually, the restaurants are the only thing I really miss about Sydney, and a special mention to Ishibanboshi at Bondi Junction, their Kara-age Don is heart cloggingly deliciousness (always added a special boiled egg...or 2) 😋 
    • Does that German restaurant still exist in the old place out the NW end of Goulburn? When I say "out the NW end of"...I am really being vague. It was 1997 when I was last there, and the only point of reference I can recall is that it was on the opposite side of the main drag from the big merino. And when I say "opposite side of the main drag", I don't mean "on the main drag". It was either a couple of streets back from there, or might have even been out in the sticks a bit further. Was an old farm building or mill or somesuch. And when I say "the big merino" I might actually be thinking of a completely different part of town, because I just looked on maps and the big bugger is not where I remembered him to be! The food was good, consisting largely of various German mystery-meat sausage/loaf things and kartofflen.
    • So while the second sentence is completely correct and the whole point of the conversation, the first sentence bears consideration. If this bloke is just hoping to throw big turbos on and drive it around, because there are no helpful facilities at all in his tropical paradise** then he likely has zero chance of even knowing what the TP is on the last column in the stock maps, let alone know whether the ECU is operating anywhere near it or past it. So the point is very very moot. And, per what I said before, at stock boost on those turbos, you may well be off the end of the map. **I'm just back from Vanuatu, so I know exactly what small Pacific nations can be like wrt paradise without requisite facilities. But it's not even that simple. I put a high flow on my car and had to drive it around with a proper tune because of the lack of opportunity*** to put the bigger AFM and injectors into it to allow it to be tuned. I had to turn the boost down to less than I had before, and back off the boost controller's ramp, because it was exploring parts of the map that it didn't drive in before, and really couldn't access for tuning on the dyno either, and so was pinging. It was still well within the last column, because when I first**** set up the Nistune on the Neo I rescaled all axes of the maps to give some more space to explore. ***Family dyno was broken ****This was 13 years ago, and the TIM thing wasn't a thing then and so TP would definitely grow when pushing past the stock tune's limits.
    • Yep, this bit another local owner. I caught it before putting the transmission back into the car, what I noticed was the pressure plate fingers weren't flat and even. It's more obvious with the pull style clutch because the throwout bearing ring was visibly not flat once everything is put together. Nismo should really update their instructions to call out this specific detail. I'm not even sure the clutch as-shipped orients everything properly.
