Just amzed at the dyno day yesterday as to how many lines (and others) cruised on by without the stones to stop and shoot the breeze with fellow liners.

Are we ugly or diseased or, are they just plain chickenshit. There were a couple of nice cars among them too. :laugh:

im not sure what you mean?

Not everyone was there to run there cars. I dont see how it has anything to do with balls at all, some just didnt want to do it. And considering the area its in, it doesnt surprise me that a skyline or two thats unrelated to SAU cruised past

Noel im surprised you can still count that high in your age? :P Nah true to the point yet we dont want the wrong crowd stopping. The fact was that who was there was the point the 99% majority of which were decent people. Thats quite satisfactory in my views there

178 mark. basic mods. fmic. pipes from turbo back. apexi pod. 10 lb boost. Not a bad ground zero to start from. I saw some rides make plenty of ponies but I suspect they could be animals to drive. Plan is to finish up around the 250 rwkw mark with most of the power in a very useable range. Mod selection is gonna be the key and i am going to drive a lot of people nuts before i settle on what I want. :P

so back on topic:

this isn't a new occurence

any organised event in the public section always gets a ton of club (and other forum) drivebys

usually noobcruising, which explains the bogans in their hilarious cars showing off their exhaust noise most of the day

(that and the 30 something skylines)

Edit: For hilarious read: Piece of sh*t VK station wagon with bonnet gauges and a supercharger, hah

Loud and clear Andy. I know that sound too well. :D

even some of the ppl i met there for the first time needed to strut their epeens by revvving off after the dyno.

but meh.. you get that i guess. me.. it got revved enough for the day so i let it idle nicely out... then it has a 300km drive @110kmh

so it got to stretch its legs

I was there for a look and was going to give my car a run, but $50 for a five minute run nah. The staff looked like they had enough they were not very friendly or helpful anyway.

And after a 300v motul oil change the day before you dont have much spending money left over lol.

People are just shy?

Honestly, this is a stupid issue to be brought up, we have nothing to hide, and there were no unwanted parties showing up, who cares that people are curious? anyone who is participates in this club is welcome, as also to those curious......

honestly who gives a crap!? ;)

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Even with no BOV you will have issues unless the MAF is a hot film type like the R35 which has some design features to deal with reversion. Hot wire MAFs are very sensitive.

      Question about BoV on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      So i just change the (whatever is inside ma original MAF and slide the R34 MAF (it is gonna fit right in? ) and somewhere on the hot side a BoV...i presume that would be vented to the atmo? I just "trying" to understand...maybe my mechanic would know this   I would not mind(even prefer) to run stock BoV cuz it is way more than fine but i do not have that and only pipeing what is left is oem J pipe ... I will be running Blitz fmic(to fit oem one side style) and i gonna need custom pipes cuz i do not have rest of those pipes and hoses... But i am want standalone ECU. Only choice i have atm is Nistune...but that is not gonna cut it right?I dont know what Nistune can and cant do... I know you guys know Link and Haltech...but whatabout ECUmaster? I know guys in here run those but i literally do not know about that and do not know differences... Just know to take whatever "my" tuner can work on.

      Update 2: Today I'm f**king pissed. Some of you probably saw my thread that I opened shortly after joining this forum, "urgently need expert/experienced opinion", in which I discussed the possibility of a porous RB26 engine block which I also found hard to believe. Currently both turbos are out since the shitty braided line that was installed by whoever fitted the GT28 turbos leaked oil onto the exhaust. Today while working on the cam covers to put new gaskets and half moons in, I cleaned the side of the engine block with brake cleaner. Some time later I saw that it was still glistening with oil or coolant so I dried that off. But it was wet again shortly after. Verdict: I'm royally screwed. What you can see here (hopefully, despite shit resolution), circled in red, is a crack above the turbo oil feed. Extent is a few cm long and basically goes from #3 cylinder wall to #4 cylinder wall. It slowly lets coolant through, even without any pressure behind it. I am absolutely dumbfounded as to how this crack even formed, especially since it isn't along the cylinder as it usually is but rather a horizontal crack. Probably a few cm in length. Not sure on how to deal with this issue right now. Most likely, the only true fix is a new engine block, and even a relatively well done temporary fix requires at least a full engine teardown. Neither of those really fit my timetable right now, the car has been in my buddy's garage long enough as it is. I'm open to suggestions, but I'll be looking into ordering a new 05U block soon so I have one ready for the coming year, or whenever the current block inevitably fails fully. (Most likely once the crack reaches one of the frost plugs) I think it'd be a waste of money and time to rebuild the engine with this block. Oh and I found a rust hole on the side pocket of the trunk, which someone covered up with sealant goop, a piece of number plate and bodywork filler. Fun times. So far for every issue we fix we just find a new one that is arguably worse.

      I have not found this no. I put one back on a couple days ago with no drama. I agree they are tight, but no need to remove anything.
