Ok so who's available/keen on a Saturday day/night meet + photos. Some of you want to go to the drags (think that's Saturday) so we can split the day or you can all go to that together

I want to get photos of any colored cars during the day and probably black cars at night (as they look a bit better at night) but I will take photos of all the cars at both times

I've got a few little things to do saturday morning but will see what everyone wants to do then work out times

ok, I've downloaded Nissan Fast 2010. Callan, I understand that you were chasing it?

Its supposed to work with Windows 7 x64, but I haven't tried it yet. If it doesn't, I have a Virtual Machine built running Windows XP and Fast already installed that I am happy to copy over. All you need to do is download VirtualBox (free) and add the VM.

Happy to burn a DVD for either one.

I tried downloading it from a site that has some random skyline/Nissan stuff on it but it only partially downloaded every time I tried.

I'm not in desperate need of it but if it works on windows 7 64 bit I'd be happy to have it

It's very handy to have

So everyone sick of the Mackay thread? I'll just make it my own thread, with another Pic :)

I've got my fix of carbon fibre engine stuff now I think, taking votes on what to do with rocker covers - Paint them black or polish them/paint them silver

go

Edited by 89CAL

Yeah but I think polished will look alot better then black. Might just paint them a high gloss silver

I would paint them Cal, polishing sucks arse and it if you don't keep on top of it they go dull very quickly, unless you like polishing your engine every time it rains etc.

Paint it what ever colour you want, i don't mind the blue and silver, i done it on my mates R34 once and i'm about to do it to my other mates supra. Cusco Metallic Blue with Metallic Silver doesn't have to heat paint just prep it correctly and she will be all sweet. Having blue silicon hoses is a pain because a bright red engine with blue hoses it not nice it you know what i mean but i think the metallic silver and carbon will look good.

Here's a pic

Seeing this is a Mackay Car i'll post it. My mate Richard has been saving his hard earned coin for the last few years to build the ultimate street Supra 1998 model VVT-i and has entrusted me to beef up the power for him hehehe.... hopefully be punching out a nice 650-700rwhp in a month or 2. Mostly HKS gear in it and it will be getting tuned on Sucrogen E85 same shit the R32 runs and tuned by none other than Mr Mark Jacobson at Godzilla MS. Once the supra rolls out of the shed Kingy's R34 GTR will be coming in for a new and improved fuel system and a re-tune on E85 big numbers coming out of that thing hopefully.... R35 killer it will be can't wait.thumbsup.gif.

I remember when my HKS box rocked up, felt like Christmas all over again.

Hopefully the T04Z delivers more to expectations then my turbo did lol

I'm probably gonna go silver on the Cam covers to put a bit of contrast between all the carbon fibre surrounding parts. Will experiment over christmas anyway, have a month off to play around with the car, and I'll be respraying nearly the whole front end and maybe a few other things anyway so will have a play with the cam covers in between

The amount of boxes that arrives at our house every week, most people must think we do this shit for a living, lol just a weekend hobbie.

Wish i had a month off again to, keep chipping away at it Cal, it will look like a million bucks soon enough, it's hard to make a RB25 look nice.

    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
