oh dear, last nite was a hoot

dave, hows the random body parts that got slammed into the door frame / pillar of my car?

should upload a few photos when i get my camera out the car......wasnt overly muddy but we found a good spot to go through. Even the cop that rocked up was chilled

So in light aircraft back here then? Errmm...No thanks :happy:

i prefer to call them dingy's in the sky

anyone know the causes of hard to start rb25? its cranks over but takes 5-6 times to slowly get running.. once its running if i turn it off then back on its fine..

its like only once its been sitting for a few hours!?

any ideas?

I have the same problem as well....so far cannot work out what it is arrgh

Next time you get on a plane flight and the guy next to you is an a-hole or the lady won't keep her kids coralled from kicking your back .... follow the instructions below ....

What to do in a flight when you have an annoying passenger seating next to you ...

1. Remove your laptop from the briefcase;

2. Open the laptop slowly and carefully:

3. Turn it on, as well as the sound;

4. Make sure that the passenger next to you is looking;

5. Access the Internet;

6. Close your eyes for a few moments, open again and look up to heaven ;

7. Take a deep breath and open the site: http://www.myit-media.de/the_end.html

8. Observe the facial expression of the passenger seating next to you.

Since i fly a lot for work i will keep this in mind LOL

Just putting the word out there that if anyone is interested in coming to Ministry of Sound Trance Nation to HQ next friday please hit me up for some tickets as its $30 on the night and the tickets are $20....cheers

BTW... If you want to prove a point N/A wise... You should do it in a 7.4L v8 or something. There is nothing that can be proven in a 2.5ltr 6Cyl N/A :down::P

I would be a bastard and say "rolls royce merlin' but theyre super charged so i have to settle for Rolls Royce Meteor

Life Story entry #336

Loaded and delivered some of the jarrah flooring that I purchased yesterday and today. Oh boy, did I bite off more than I can chew! I'm barely halfway thru it. Getting the rest of the 180m2 of flooring next Sunday (after dyno day).

I've still got splinters in my hands :rofl:

This week I gotta order the floor framing materials.

    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
    • I don't care for these at all, but at least the underside looks straight and not rusty. A good basis for a long life. Many cars from Japan have been lifted with forklifts and f**ked almost irrepairably.
    • Yes, but it's not dumb or dodgy. You can build a perfectly good boost controller from a pressure reg, a relief valve (looks same same as a reg if all from Norgren or SMC, for example) and a check valve. I ran one for years. Only superceded with  EBC because I could get one for cheaps and wanted finer control.   THis mod is certainly not a sketchy boost mod, provided the boost is kept below the "spin to death" threshold of the turbos.
