anyone one who can weld my bov in for me?

1. A good place to get my car tuned .... dyno or just normally tuned... prefably cheap as I'm on a tight budget. I know i should be stingy on my car. however I'm on a budget for now. So yeah

2. Good panel beater because few minor body work required ... Cheap one too if possible lol (i'm sad i know) ... or anyone who does it like amatuer at their house. I will still pay

3. ANYONE who will let me drive to their house and teach me how to take the door lining and the plastic bit around like the air conditioner, head unit etc.... out and teach me how to spray paint it Silver. I blew up my clock too. anyone can help me with that

4. Any car cruises or drags happening the brisbane/gold coast area. I'm very keen

turbo timers and boost controlers can be found both cheap and expensive, depending on what you want from them.

and THE man for skylines is gavin woods at labrador, pretty much everyone here will vouch for him. he has done some work on my car, he really knows his stuff on skylines.

WAYNE - is there an actual club for red skylines LOL. sweetas and i really really really wanted tat head unit :D (okay I'll stop sulking now)

BELGARION - yeah I've heard plenty of good wraps about GAvin Woods, will get car dyno done when all mods r in ... u know how much it'll be setting me back? DO u know anyone with TT or boost controllers for sale, I just want a basic TT - doesnt bother me, however for the boost i want the design where i can change the boost at a flick of a switch in my interior - thats sik!

NISOMAN18 - Yeah I tried ... but i heard a crack and I Blew my clock up and the (beeping when ur door is open) STOPPED WORKING. So yeah I know I've fcuked up somewhere, thats why I've stopped. I dont have any mates with skylines sooo no one can really help me :( U wanna help me??? kekekeke

CHAOS - will get pics up asap once I finish the interior and STICKERS GALORE! lol RICE!

Ill help u if u want, ull have to come down ere though ;). i dont know how u blew ur clock up, did u check ur fuses? i carry like 50 fuses everywhere i drive now cos i blow fuses on a constant basis (neons and shit)

narh I dont think so ...... there's warning beep when u leave ur lights on and take ur key out, and beeps when driver side door is open ...... good safety device so u dont kill ur battery. I know I fcuked it up somehow. forgot to turn my lights on the day i had went for my manual license (YES i bought the car before i got my license) and the battery died. I STRESSED! but then pushed start my car and let the battery charge a little bit and went for my exam. BTW anyone here know a guy with a red r32 name Coco? I got my license btw ... pretty happy. I did my driving exam in my skyline, and the examiner didnt even ask 'who drove me here' ... sooo lucky i got a nice guy.

    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
