SAU users used to tend to be exclusively older, as the price of the cheapest import Skyline was $30k+. However, these days I feel a large part of the deterioration of SAU is the fact that a turbo Skyline can be had for well under $10k, and this opens the forum up to a myriad of younger users, who tend to type before they think on occassion.

hope i dont add to the 'type before they think on occasion' part

Anyone keen for a cruise down to victor one sunday in the next couple of weeks? Have lunch at the pub, chill out, get some pics etc. Weather the past couple of days has been awesome and been keen for a cruise.

I would be keen.....if i wasn't working every Sunday till 4pm

good to hear you arent apologising for something you dont have

just about every post I have seen you make has either been you blowing your own trumpet informing the world how good you are...hows the weather up there on your high horse there champ?

I wasnt the only one to notice it...and this is why you have had an example made of you

a few cliffnotes

1. you are not funny

2. you are not cool

3. your car sucks ass

4. shouting "nice cans" at a comittee member of a car show I am heavily involved in is a very quick way to lose your right to attend it

5. no one...and I repeat no one cares what you think about anything, ever

HTH

ahahahahha well said!!!

GOLD!!!!!!! :P

i had to lol at a mate of mine that i have not seen for a few years.... he has a tattoo of barbed wire around his bicep, and a spiderweb on his elbow and did not know that they both symolise u have been in jail

hahahahaahha

man this place is like aids lately, do not want.

ur words say no but your attendance says otherwise, sounds like someone is keen to join my club. and andrew its not son of rajab of the fags its "gay son of rajab" thank you

I definitely don't hate NS, but observe that the vast majority of posters 1). are under 18 years of age, and tend to show their lack of maturity in their comments and posts, and 2). the vast majority of users actually don't even own a car - yet are happy to shell out advice and opinions as though they are gospel.

very valid observation, but is it really only the young 1s that start the tear work? think we've had some older emo's in our time aswell. unfortunately growing up is only optional where as only growing old is not. but eh what ya gonna do :P n yes there prob is more younger emo's than older

i find it odd there are constant posts of sau is going down hill but they still keep coming back, its like fnfurious movie. you'll all complain its no good but you'll still pay good money to go see it.

I would like to personally shake hands with the person who invented seedless watermelon

i prefer shaking hands with beef myself

n craig you prob 1 of those ppl on tv that have the million dollars in interest waiting for them they dont know about :)

and i disagree with point number 5 position 3. if he does not care what he thinks then why post on here and eager for his response.

"For a long time, Koreans thought Dr. Wu Jang Choon invented seedless

watermelon, when in fact, he was the first Korean to demonstrated it in

Korea.

He never claimed to be the inventor. He was merely demonstrating the power

of the genetics. However, this revered Korean scientist was falsely

credited (by and amongst Koreans) for decades after his death in 1959.

It is indeed a Japanese scientist who invented it."

    • Ha, well, it's been.... a bit of a journey. Things have taken much longer than I'd hoped. I'll probably put up a thread at some stage. Hopefully soon. The car's not done any kms since my update in June though, put it that way.
    • Here's the chart for fuel pressure vs. current draw, assuming your base fuel pressure is 3 bar and you run like 0.5bar boost on WOT, you should only momentarily hit 9amps here and there. (Ignore my prev post, I cannot read a chart these days it seems)
    • Those comp test results are not hideous. Whether they are accurate or not (ie, when that comp tester says 140 psi, is the real pressure120, 140 or 160?) is unknown to us. The state of the battery used to crank it over is unknown, etc etc. Many people around here would say that the absolute values and the spread are perfectly fine to just add boost and keep going. I personally would be happier with a narrower spread than that, but even the diff between 125 and 145 is not terrible. That one cylinder at 125 though, has probably copped some damage relative to the others. You should inspect the valves seeing as you've got it open. Do you know how to measure installed ring gaps? That, and an inspection of the rings themselves, is how you will determine whether they need to be replaced. If you're not good to do these things, take the block and the pistons and rings to a shop that is, and ask them for the go/no-go on them. Do the bores need a hone at all? If so, you might well be justified in getting some different pistons in order to get away from the ring supply problem. Whether you're happy to spend a lot more money right now, on more gear, rather than less money, but an amount that looks stupid given that you will only get a handful of rings in exchange for that money, is for you to decide.
    • also possibly backed up to my filler and shat down it! 🤣
    • Ok so i would love some advice here please, i purchased an R33 a few months back and its had a few mods done to the engine, its an RB25det running a Master ECU, 1200cc injectors, bigger turbo, oil cooler, oil filter relocation kit, Spool H-beam rods, acl/ross pistons. When i removed the motor from the vehicle (as its getting a respray) i thought i would compression test it and these are the following results. Cylinder 1-145psi, Cylinder 2-143psi, Cylinder 3-125psi, Cylinder 4-145psi, Cylinder 5-140psi, Cylinder 6-135psi this test was done with the motor on the ground and powering up the starter motor. I dropped the sump and found broken oil squirters on cylinder 3,5 and 6. I was told my rings are probably worn so i stripped the motor completely to get a new set of rings for it. The trouble is no one has these rings anywhere and they have to be custom made by Ross over in the states and will cost about $600+$200 delivery. My question is how can i tell if my rings are at fault and if they are still ok and is this price ok for a set of rings?
