Wow ... just had a massive project down at Aldinga land in my in-tray. Time to get back to work. Stop talking about my erection and do something about another erection :wave: This is going to keep me busy until the end of the day :P

so, my dad occasionally has fits of awesome.

im at work at the moment, jsut got a call from him, hes taken a half day and is heading out to main north nissan to pick up the feed line i need ($131 including new gaskets for the banjos), and is gonna fit it up as soon as he gets home, i *might* be making the dyno day in my car after all. heh.

but ehm, i removed a few things to find where the leak was, like the outlet snout on the turbo, anyone know what the bolts holding it in should be torqued up to? and what the banjo fittings should be done up to?

Okay, so I'm going to catch the O-Bahn bus today for the first time in like 8 years.

And I'm meant to catch another bus and get off at a place called 'Banksia Park'.

Ah, I hate when some of my mates are Northerners lol. I'm going to get so lost.

Depends which bus you get on to start with.... I know that don't help you much but if you can get on the right bus (I'm assuming in the city) you want have to switch/wait at Modbury

Catching a 542 bus? Apparently that goes from the city right up into Banksia Park.

I'm google mapping that shit up now.

rb20det, gtr injectors, stock ecu remmaped.

put a baffle plate in exhaust..

would that make it un driveable?

i was taking my mates car to regency and all off a sudden, running like a dog, black smoke pouring out..

WTF? prob only hit 2500rpm..

Unless the baffle plate clogged up the exhaust so much, it's causing back pressure and other crazy shit to happen, so the ECU makes it run extra-rich to compensate?

    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
