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?

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I highly rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
