Just a heads up to people who may display there email address in their skylines australia profile.

I just had a nice conversation with someone named (Josh),he was signed into my old msn email

([email protected])

I asked who it was using my account,he said his names Josh.

i asked how he got my email account,he said 'skylinesaustralia'

so i said he wishes he had a skyline,then he said he has a GTR.

probly just some young tosser playing games.

so just a head up to fellow skyliners.

i suggest not displaying your email.

P.S in no way am i blaming SAU.com

the account was hacked before my pc was just recently repaired.

so just letting you know there are tossers about.

Haha you run MSN of course you're up to getting exploited.

Patch yourself, change your passwords and use a firewall is about as good-er advice as I can give without being overly specific/prescriptive :blush:

Oh and be weary of using netbank on the same PC unless you're sure you don't have spyware.. you may be running a zombie network client.

Yeah ofcoarse. You can never really be 100% secure.

Norton will protect you from major vulnerabilities, but not fake webpages and stuff.

I'm still not quite sure how your account got hacked off SkylinesAustralia though? It's not as if the guy found your email off SAU and then hacked it cause he physcially found your email off here.

It just doesn't reall make sense. You would think if someone could 'hack' emails they find off websites, they would just hack their friends because they already know them?

I don't think I've caught the jist of what you mean?

      Help! Leak coming under transmission

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      So..... it's going to be a heater hose or other coolant hose at the rear of the head/plenum. Or it's going to be one of the welch plugs on the back of the motor, which is a motor out thing to fix.

      The oil pressure sensor for logging, does it happen to be the one that was slowly breaking out of the oil block? If it is,I would be ignoring your logs. You had a leak at the sensor which would mean it can't read accurately. It's a small hole at the sensor, and you had a small hole just before it, meaning you could have lost significant pressure reading.   As for brakes, if it's just fluid getting old, you won't necessarily end up with air sitting in the line. Bleed a shit tonne of fluid through so you effectively replace it and go again. Oh and, pay close attention to the pressure gauge while on track!

      I don't know it is due to that. It could just be due to load on track being more than a dyno. But it would be nice to rule it out. We're talking a fraction of a second of pulling ~1 degree of timing. So it's not a lot, but I'd rather it be 0... Thicker oil isn't really a "bandaid" if it's oil that is going to run at 125C, is it? It will be thicker at 100 and thus at 125, where the 40 weight may not be as thick as one may like for that use. I already have a big pump that has been ported. They (They in this instance being the guy that built my heads) port them so they flow more at lower RPM but have a bypass spring that I believe is ~70psi. I have seen 70psi of oil pressure up top in the past, before I knew I had this leak. I have a 25 row oil cooler that takes up all the space in the driver side guard. It is interesting that GM themselves recommend 0-30 oil for their Vette applications. Unless you take it to the track where the official word is to put 20-50w oil in there, then take that back out after your track day is done and return to 0-30.

      Nice, looks great. Nice work getting the factory parts also. Never know when you'll need them.
