hey whos our motor bike people here?

was just wondering if anyones used those thingy's that are kinda like the bike chains you use for push bikes but they thicker n have a key lock and naturaly designed for motorbikes.

i was thinking could use it down the shop n chain my car to any random pole i find or even a fellow friends car wrapped around our rims :) that way theres no pushing my ride up the street to mess with it unless they manage to take my wheel off with locnutz and replace it with the spare :thumbsup: would take a bit of effort though and looking very sketchy while doing it

just a random secruity idea that passed my mind :P next week inflatable doll left in the car (not just for a good time and to save me looking like a loner)

hey... looking at turbos for my rb25 when she arives!!

i have been looking through slouches GB and came across the 3071r and 2871r..

which would be the turbo to go for and wat housings would best suit! looking for response and 280ish even 300kw fo a later date!

http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Ga...86-t210306.html

cheers

Adrian, I have pondered and pondered on going gt3540 for ages just chasing the big numbers, I was even going to put my turbo up for sale last night....But reality is, I make close to 270rwkw with my gt2871r with 15psi. More responsive than most turbos and any more than 250rwkw is ridiculous for a 2wd skyline. The turbo you will need to make 300rwkw is going to disappoint you with low down reponse after sampling a smaller turbo. Sure, youll make big number but numbers are numbers. Its the way the car drives that really matters. Ive had a chance to drive both a GTR with 300rwkw and a GTS-T with 300rwkw and there is no comparison, all depends what you want out of the car obviously. If your making a hills/steetable car then sacrifice 30-40rwkw and keep it a responsive, fun car.

EDIT: GT2871R 56t for sale $1200 6000km old! :thumbsup:

Ok LOL i may have done something really stupid, just had new turbo injectors so on a so forth installed and still adjusting to the new power. I took off possibly a little to quick and lost traction on my rear tires also into second gear. Thats not the problem the problem is since then my radiator fan is continuosly running, the more revs the car gets thru the gears the higher it runs.

HELP ME PLEASE!!!!! Any idea's would be great

craig ill buy ur old rotors if there in good nik?

i need to upgrade my brakes for the 25..

as far as i am aware, they dont have much life left in them, and they need a machine...

is 30 bucks good for you? lol

i will have no need for them.

sounds like the clutch fan is stuck on.............should be as easy as getting another clutch fan

Know were i can get a new clutch fan? Also a 02 sensor lol wasnt caused thru same incident

those are both reasonably generic components. im sure you can get them from repco or one of the mechanics resellers. o2 sensors are never cheap, and you want to make sure u get a new one, 2nd hand could be a waste of time (and petrol). The clutch on the fan is possibly replacable itself (its just a little metal spigot and possibly some sleeved coil) so I reckon you could get one of those no sweat.

Had my o2 sensor replaced at road n track last year, wasnt too expensive from memory tho i dont know how much it cost specifically

-D

Definitely agree. A large turbo sucks..

The GT28 on the rb25 and a GT30 with a .82 rear on the rb30 is the perfect match.

268rwkw... Mine had no issues getting power down in second with 225/50 16's.

I ran wider Nankang NS2 245/40 18's at one stage and they had half the grip of a decent 225/50 16. All though the 16's don't look as good. 18's just don't grip; cornering they are excellent. :D

I've also had cheapish 225/50 16's that would skate around through third gear from 80km/h until 150km/h and twitch in fourth by simply rolling on the throttle in third.

I havnt put my gt35/40r on my rb25 yet its still sitting on my desk for show lol but after reading some threads on the GT2871R iv been thinking of getting one with my tax :) what cams would you run with the gt28 to get the max out of the turbo?

oh so that wasnt on TV tonight... what episode was

Not sure if the others in the house would enjoy the result of the vindaloo on me :D

In other news... just saw the Top Gear episode with the GTR in it. The episode in one word, EPIC! :kiss:

how much i wouldnt mind an iTouch

I just bought an iPod touch! Was way too cheap, only reason i bought it :bunny: ebay FTW, thats my 26th item purchased from ebay. :)

lol i dont know why you guys have so much troubles hyperlink ftw

ebay links fail. Steve knows how to fix them

are you blind stupid or both you asked for rotors the other day for R33 and i said i had some :)

take no offence i need a shower

craig ill buy ur old rotors if there in good nik?

The GT35 really is not a good street turbo on the rb25. First gear sucks second gear sucks and your left playing catch up. I've been for a little drive with a gt35 rb25det and it appeared slower through first and second than a rb25det making 200rwkw with its stock turbo. It just didn't really get up and go until 3rd+ gear. :S

yeah on my car :)

i told you the other day only rotors then i said wouldn't you want callipers also

if you search yahoon autions you will find some at a decent price

I bought it as i was going for big power not response but now im going for response and power so iv been thinking of the GT2871R :)

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
