r32 ls1 conversion, looks rather tidy.

btw Dale bill from ATS claims his high flows get upto 270rwkw on pump fuel and they do get over 300 on E85 Adrian of the last dyno day was running the same one i have with nismo 700cc injectors and cracked 300

Read this story:

http://www.news.com.au/adelaidenow/story/0...5006301,00.html

And read what a comment was for this story:

I wonder how many high speed incidents there are in the immediate days and weeks after the Clipsal 500 has been in Adelaide. This must cost the state dearly in business disruption within Adelaide, does it also have a cost in lives?

What kind of bullshit is that? Blaming Clipsal 500 for a bunch of robbers trying to out-run the police?!

old people can use the internet now, so its not just angry letters in the feedback section of the advertiser :(

What a poor, poor statement, that really has no relation to the story? They ran from the cops, and smashed, i dont think they had the Ckipsal 500 in their mind at the time. Another comment was, i hate to say it, spot on, but "they fulfilled their own destiny".

yay!

This is a tragic waste of life, but we need to ask why do young kids do this? When I was young I did stupid things in cars, got caught, paid the fine and became a better driver. Now, getting caught is too tough so higher risks are taken to NOT get caught, stupid things done later at night, done in more remote areas that are more dangerous etc. Remember Kids will be Kids, they will experiment. I say lets not stop kids experimenting, let provide them a safer way to experiment, provide a controlled manner in which they can experiment. Driving at 50 everyday only creates dumb useless drivers, learning how to control a car provides safer drivers, make it mandatory for kids to do some evasive driving classes, teach them how to drive faster, give them a place to do a burnout. I am sick of all this crap about lowering speed limits, increasing the fines. This just increases the risks some kids will take. Everyday we drive a car its a risk, we need to lower the risk, we need to save lives and we need to do it in a radical way. People comment about kids not understanding what they are doing and that they must "wake up" - don't you remember when you were a kid, when did you wake up? When were enlightened that you were not invincible? When did you realise that you are so important to your family - probably not until you got your own kids? I am saying lets provide better training and reduce the severity of the punishment, lets reduce the risk these kids have to take to experiment, the higher the risk the higher the loss and that is what we are seeing.

Im surprised the report doesnt go

'the skyline powered commodore'

the comment i read sort of blamed lowered speed limits and no race track

edit couldn't agree more with that quoted post there damo pity the right people that count dont read it and get things done

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
