I'm never happy with my cars so many ideas i wanna do but never get to do it. Still storming up ideas i have 2 RB30 blocks still, i'm thinking street sleeper will look pretty stock to the untrained eye all black engine bay but will be rolling on 550-600hp with 0 turbo lag, can't wait to start the engine build but i will be buying a house before any of this happens, houses suck but can't rent forever boodown.gif

Yeah New Years was pretty good from what i remember was fairly smashed, went to the northern beaches bowls club it was packed but i had fun don't remember walking home.

Also want to ask anyone is interested in doing trip to the Superlap this year in August, as i won't be going to Powercruise or Jambo this year as i will be in Las Vegas. Some very unique and hi-po GTR's from Japan are coming rumors are M-speed R34, Autoselect Yellow Shark R34 and maybe Cyber's new R35 which is taking over from their EVO will be f**king awesome can't wait to see the line up.

Yeah I'm looking into housing atm, thats why my car hasnt recieved any major upgrades lately lol

Starting my new job soon so will have a bit more money to spare then. Because of my new job though, wont be making the easter trip this year. Pretty disapointed about that but what can you do

Yeah Cal i hear ya gotta make some sacrifices i'll have no cars for awhile sad.gif but its the only way i'm gonna get a house quickly, not looking forward to $800 a week house repayments its gonna suck big hairy balls hardcore woot.gif

So pulled my sunroof out today and saw the extent of the rust damage.

So if anyone knows someone with a this part of the sunroof that wants to sell it then let me know, I was gonna take it in to get repaired but that might cost a bit to much.

Found my next car its a all original bog stock mint condition R32 with original 75000kms its from a high end GTR specialist dealer in Japan only 1380000yen which is like $18k FARK i so want it so bad its even in the colour i want as well. It is almost way too good of condition to modify should be bubble wrapped for 20yrs and then sold for $$$$$$

Goodluck trying to find a new sunroof Cal you would have to go through Nissan Japan and even then they would want a squillion dollars.

Yeah I'm trying to find one from a wrecked 33 off here, stuff going through Nissan lol. Was gonna repair mine but I'd need a new seal and who knows what else would break so would probably end up costing to much

Thats a tidy R32, almost makes me wish I'd got one

How did you go Cal have any luck with the sunroof. Have you tried Yahoo Auctions?

Very productive day for me hopefully the R33 GTR will be sold by tomorrow and then just waiting for the 350Z to acquire a new home then i will be officially car-less (fairlane doesn't count as a car cause its a heap of shit with wheels under it). Can't wait for next project car banana.gif Operation Street Sleeper hehehe last car i swear no more after this one biggrin.gif

No F-ing way this will be your last car haha

I'm looking at something a bit more practical for my next car, Audi A4 1.8L lol

The skyline will spend more time locked away then :)

Sunroof hasnt gone well so far, I emailed 3 import wreckers down south and import monster last night just seeing whos got the best price. No replies yet but I'll leave it for a few days. Probably end up putting whatever one i get in the car and (Depending how good it is) I'll get mine pulled apart, remove the rust and paint etc then get it re-sealed.

Not to worried at the moment so see how i go

dont lie them pics are off the brochure ben haha

callan just get urs fixed man atleast u know its done then and not a 2nd hand one that might already have rust starting...

Yeah I might end up fixing it. Its just the fact that it will have to be off the road for a few days and I'm running around doing inductions and shit at the moment so cant really do it at the moment lol. Maybe when I get back from my shift in a bit over a week

    • Ok guys thank you very much. GCG highflow it is then 🙂 
    • forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k. 
    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
