1000 plus horsepower is very achievable when you have 4.0 Litres worth of induction to play with

this thing would peel the paint straight off your hood

I suck at embedding!!

hit the last button that says 'insert media' and paste the youtube url into it

-D

well the 6.0lt guy very passionate, awesome way he told us what went wrong and how to avoid it

Yeah. First thing they said at Road & Track when I had oil in my radiator was to check the head gasket and sure enough it was munted. Makes me glad seeing stuff like that, as I replaced the head gasket with a 1.3mm mls cometic asap including new arp head studs/bolts/whateverthef**k, hoses and every other gasket there was... Ruby got it running today which is sweet, but needs a little more work (and rego) before I can drive it for the first time since early Dec 2010...

And in the end theres nothing like an rb26 as a paperweight to ruin a mans day... glad mine didnt end up like the noob who owned that 6 litre rofl

-D

EDIT - And Shawn @ boostworx had told me that it dropped pressure from 19psi to 17.5 in the upper revs so that was a bit of a giveaway too. Nothin' like preventative diagnostics!

Moon led a very destructive and irresponsible lifestyle. He laid waste to hotel rooms, the homes of friends and even his own home, throwing furniture out of high windows.
Along with his drum sets, Moon's infamous (and favourite) calling card was to flush powerful explosives down toilets

rofl!

rofl!

Theres a clip on youtube of 2 infamous incidents...

One was them trashing the set on an american show. Moon put more explosives in his drum kit than usual and when it blew up it was a massive explosion that sent cymbal shrapnel into Keiths arm and probably caused some of Pete Townshends tinnitus issues...

Second one was a music festival where Keith had drank heaps of booze and taken tranquilisers. He passed out mid song, was carried to the bathroom to get woken up by the roadies - he wakes up, returns to the kit, passes out AGAIN and then Roger Daltrey asks the crowd if anyone can play drums, and one dude goes up there and plays 3 songs, just winging it...

He'd throw tv's into the pool and once drove a cadillac into a hotel pool in Flint Michigan too, as well as the time he punctured a waterbed which leaked thru the 3 hotel suites below his...

^^ EDITED your post^^

Should have waited the 30 seconds it took me to find the video links.. patience is a virtue

-D

EDIT - And in any case, heres footage of Keith passing out while on animal tranquilisers

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
