Ill just start by saying that every time i see pics of a z tune it looks better.

Get an immediate horn straight out.

I dont mind the girlie ones...

The little blondie in the black dress looks up for it, the one on the chopper looks like a bikie chik, The one on the left of the 4 pervin or whatever looks good, the 2 from the body shop or whatever touchin tongues look like dirtbags, i think they went home together after the show.

How did you get them to look at you for most of your shots, when i take em at autosalon, they always seem to be looking the other way or away from me haahahahah.

yeah there were some nice cars there

as far as having the ladies smile for the camera, i just

make a d#@# of myself until they finally look over

i know this is a skyline forum, however i did think the red NSX

kicked some serious a#$!

can someone please tell me why people pay good money to put trashcan lids on their cars instead of real wheels? If the hottest cars in the world have dish, what makes people think having no dish will be better? I must be getting old because I have no interest in cars that dont do anything anymore.And yes I have owned a 55 chevy,a 56 and two 57`s.Dont get me wrong,I appreciate the work involved but 20kilo`s of extra fibre glass and leather not to mention sound systems that would equal the anchor of the QE2 dont make cars faster or appealing.Just raving I know.To each his own I suppose. :(

not necessarily faster, but to some more appealing... thats what autosalon is about... its not about having a basically stripped interior or stock with dish rims.... alot of the cars that never get driven there i hate, i dont find the point. for all the money ive put into mine im happy that it gets driven... when its on the track ill empty some weight but on the street it wouldnt bother me if i did a 14 coz i just drive normal...

I struggle to understand the autosalon. all that money and effort just to show off. I admit there are some nice cars though there is no point unless there driven. i don't understand art either so maybe there's something in that.

I found the tyres on the WRX's to be interesting. They have colours on the walls. Are they simply stickers they have stuck on or do they buy the tyres like that?

does anyone know who owns the blue r32 gtr with the canards and splitter on the front???? if you do can you get him/her to PM me or send there contact details, that would be fantastic. I was looking at making one myself, but now that some one has made one i'll see if i can buy one off them..

thanks

lol alot of little girls modelling this year, just not right lol

i agree as posted earlier, if the cars arent driven then im not all into them either ( mine will always be driven) but its like some cars at SEMA makes autosalon australia cars look like shit boxes in terms of inovation and being "out there"

the LE RX7 with the TV's everywhere including the huge one in the bonnet to me is just plain stupid but ah well

    • You very likely need to get it on a dyno and tune it. My assumption is, you've got an RB25DET tune in it, which has a different manifold, different injectors, and different cams as a minimum. What O2 sensor are you running?   When you say it runs extremely rich from idle all the way to redline, is this just free revving it you see that?
    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
