Hey guys I'm buying a car hoist from a Chinese supplier and am wondering if anyone else here would be interested in getting one too ? Reason I ask is the more you buy the cheaper it is. I have seen this particular hoist in action and was impressed ! They are 240v single phase and come in many sizes. If interested or wanna know more let me know .... Also if you have had any experiences with these Chinese hoists good or bad let me know I be interested to hear

Ahhh I so badly want a hoist but have nowhere to put one :( lol

I'm not 100% sure but Leon (if you've met him) got his hoist pretty cheap and might be a similar item. Like I said, dont quote me on that, I dont remember where he got his hoist from, I just thought he said it was pretty well priced

Big thanks to Benny Earl and Godzilla Morotsport for all his help over the years. All this work has paid off car made good power.

98 Unleaded 330kw at 18 PSI

E85 430kw at 25 PSI

That's excellent work mate! Very impressive numbers.

100kw power gain through e85? Really?!

Thinking about getting some swaybars for my car. At the moment looking at going whiteline 24mm adjustable front and 20mm adjustable rear.

Open to any suggestions on this. Whiteline have been great so far, thats why I was going with them but happy to switch if someone has found something better :)

Yeah Cal I'd go Whiteline Swaybars they are adjustable and are really good quality. I have Cusco Swaybars on my R33 GTR they where ok but they were not adjustable. With full rose jointed Ikeya Formula Suspension arms and solid cradle bushes on the car it handled like it was on train tracks.

Heard on the radio that they are putting up plans for a full motor-sport complex in townsville. Drag, circuit the works. Fingers crossed it goes through I may have to resurrect the 180sx time attack project. :woot:

    • I guess one thing that might be wrong is the manifold pressure.  It is a constant -5.9 and never moves even under 100% throttle and load.  I would expect it to atleast go to 0 correct?  It's doing this with the OEM MAP as well as the ECU vacuum sensor. When trying to tune the base map under load the crosshairs only climb vertically with RPM, but always in the -5.9 column.
    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • 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.
