Just a short msg to pay tribute and say farewell to my father who passed away after a battle with cancer on thursday afternoon.

he was a fellow skyline lover, and he last really happy moment was when i drove up to adela 3 weeks ago for a week away with him, because he was able to finally get into my line with me and see me open her up a little down the highway....

rest in peace mate your one of a kind :)

the most difficult time was to be honest, being at the footy yesterday, as we were both avid bomber supporters, it was our favourite game of the year, having him die the afternoon b4 the big day, it was safe to say is prob the hardest thing to do was stand through the minutes silence and the last stand bugel song thingy.....

but was something i had to do ANZAC day means more now, for me at least anyway

I feel for you mate - I also lost my father due to a car crash just on 3 yrs ago this month. Try to focus on all the good memories when you're feeling down, I know its hard, I still can't believe my dad is gone...

R.I.P to all of our passed loved ones.

Hey buddy... obviously a trying time in ones life... i had to go thru it at the begining of this year when i lost my grandfather... its with the help of very close friends and the loved ones around this that we get the strength to go on and remember the times that both lives met wether it be happy or sad. Glad to see you got to spend sometime with him before he passed on... one thing i never had the pleasure of doing... cheerish it and may he rest in peace.

there are two certancies(spelling) in life, taxes and death...while some can manage to avoid taxes, we all have to face death, be it our own, and the people we truly love and care for.

ive always said "quality not quantity", and in life, where we know not where it will end, this should be a must. and it sounds like your father did just that. and im sure he is up there somewhere, watching out for you

      Unsolicited advice? Keep the engine as close to stock as you can. Nothing wrong with adding some boost and making a little more power, but given where you are, you really don't want to try to make it into a monster. I can't imagine the roads are up to it, and the lack of locla support when it grenades will be a ball ache. FWIW, If there is a dyno around that you can access, then brand new injectors are a good idea, which will lead you to (at least) putting a Nistune in it, which will allow you to put an R35 AFM on it, all of which will make it possible to make it much much nicer to drive and live with.

      List all of your mods. It sounds like an aftermarket ECU hitting rev limiter. Like a valet mode, or a cold rpm limiter?

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By tylink720 · Posted

      @Kapr Haha yeah thats the one. I missed that you had a built up engine, I wouldn't want to run it on there either then. It was good in my situation just to replace the original turbo on a stock engine. @MBS206Yep definitely not a replacement for anything name brand
