Put this over the airbag sticker

warning_pedo.jpg

I don't know whether to tisk dissaprovingly or piss my self laughing

Theres heaps more.. some rather lame.. such as the V8 one at the bottom

^^^ I may or may not have this sticker on my R34 just for shits and giggles :D

anyone done the thermo fans and removed the clutch fan? looking into it. as i think my clutch fan is dying.

any points in the right direction would be chilled.

Yep I did it. Fairly big job, as the non-oem EL style dual thermo fans I bought did not actually fit between the chassis rails, but I made it all fit with an angle grinder and some cable ties. It will not fall out in a hurry, let me guarantee you!

But yeah, once I got it all fitted up it is awesome. When they come on it is so noisy it sounds like the world is ending, but even on a hot day my Cooling Pro radiator stays around the 90 degree mark.

I would highly recommend you buying a Pivot fan controller to run them though - as running them full time is not recommended (and noisy).

TBH I don't know exactly how much benefit they really give over the stock clutch fan - I actually think it is not worth the upgrade unless your existing fan is dying (like you say), and you want to have a play with your car.

cheers to those who offered to help me build a pc.

steve quickly whipped something up, in my budget, and sounds pretty good for what i need it for!

:D

f**k me.

What a weekend.

Friday night: met a whole bunch of hot emo's at that Syke place next to Electric light. That was some sort of win. Then went for skids in a 4age KE70 with cut springs, locked dif and a crazy fuel pump/surge tank/swirl pot setup.

Saturday night: Went to the CD launch of Trancefusion at Live on Light Square. F*cking smashed it until 5am... then hit Earth til 6am, then Club 58 til 7am. Got home at 8am. Such a dirty night.

So much amounts of win.

And why the f**k do MC's feel the need to talk/attempt to rap/sing over DJ's sets? I went to Mansions at 1am to see Black Wax play, but they had a top bloke MC just rapping over the whole set, screaming shit like "Black Wax is in the house!" Well... no f**king shit.

    • Drove to Cape Schanck to try to get a nice clear southern view over the ocean to see the lights a couple of days ago... instead got crappy cloud cover. Photo of a diorama of Hong Kong street scene. Taken on an iPhone 13 Pro Max.
    • Stock RB fuel pressure is near enough 43.5 psi, so the latency in that table at 31.6 will be close. You can see that 7 or 8 psi equates to about 0.4µs extra latency. So if you wanted to interpolate between the 31.6 and 39.9 psi values you could say you're going up about 2 psi out of those 8, so add about 0.1µs, which is barely worth talking about and is quite possibly wrong because ideally you would fix the latency while running at the appropriate conditions on the dyno, with a wideband sniffing its butt.
    • The pressure, is what you set the fuel pressure to. If you have the factory fuel reg, you'll need to find the factory spec. I don't know it off the top of my head, but someone else might.
    • For others, what GTSBoy states here should be paid attention. Why? Well lots of people play with different engines, and they LOVE to change things like remove AC, or steering pumps etc, and it lends to them needing to move the tensioner too. You want your tensioner, particularly those that are sprung or hydraulically tensioned, to be the first thing after the harmonic balancer, or technically the "last" pulley in the chain. By saying last pulley, I mean look at the direction the crank spins when the engine is running, follow the belt from where the crank is pulling the belt FROM, and keep following that until you're between the last pulley/accessory on the belt and about to reach the crank again, this is the spot where you put the tensioner. This is the area that will always end up with slack. This is worked out exactly the same way for chains too, as the physics is the same for them. The crank pulley is where all the force to drag the belt around comes from. You will never ever get rid of the slack that appears, especially under load. The tensioners job is to keep the belt loose enough when stationary that there shouldn't be out of sync movement in slow movement, and then be tight enough when running, that the belt can't jump off any gear and get damaged. Too tight, bad things happen, too loose, bad things happen. Have a tensioner (mainly sprung/hydraulic one) in the wrong spot, it can't actually do anything about keeping the tension.
