oooo... fabrication of sump extension almost complete, short block almost complete!!! =D

just need to sell my PFC, anyone?

How much haha? Swap ECU's + cash your way maybe if the price is right although I'm not really fussed if I keep the standard ECU, plan on keeping mine as is really and just maintain its cleanliness

Awesome video for all you GT-R lovers;

Z9 Filter if it's a 225, 245 or 265 6 cylinder, which is actually the same thread as RB's use but a lot bigger.

Our old dirt circuit Open Wheeler was running a Jeff Juring built 265 HEMI making around the 350HP mark.

Ahh, have always had a soft spot for those Hemis....do you recall what was done to it Dale?

We had a cam grinder and used to put our own profiles on the cam lobes with various masters to choose from in the cupboard, then get get them nitrided.

Messed around with the hydraulic lifters in those things and turned them into solids just so we could get ridiculous lifts, durations & overlaps that'd shake the whole car on idle...strictly for drags though.

Go swimming in the 4wd did we Matt haha

seems one of my last escapades where i had the bottom of the doors below water level by at least an inch and a bit was the icing on the cake. splashed water up inside my door, got into my high/low pass filters (that were mounted in the stock speaker location high in the door). Was alright until i re-fitted the tweeter that had fallen off, which killed the filters i reckon

managed to kill both tweeters as well (were reading 1ohm)

Congratulations to Craig for the arrival on the new one mate

so whos interested in paintball? I wanna organise one closer to christmas or just after, when the weather gets a bit more predictable.

Definitely interested

:D This is gonna sound pretty gay. But for some reason Damo, You were in a dream of mine last night. And you drove a VT commodore.

Yep your right it does sound gay

Yeah, i only tuned it to 10.5psi to increase the life of the turbo. 12psi is at peak efficiency for a stock rb25 turbo.

I have been running on 12 psi for almost about a year now Damo and the turbo was still going strong making 214 odd so rwkw.....for 10psi i think that figure is quite low mate.....as i remember making 180rwkw on 7psi....hopefully whatever it is you can get it sorted out mate

there are times (not many) when the north scares and confuses me.

example, on my way home from a 31 club meet, just drove past elizabeth, about 30 seconds away from my intersection, and im sitting behind a vz commodore, both of us sitting just over the limit, and the rear passenger of the commodore decided walking might be a better way to get home and throw himself out of the car.

onto the asphalt.

at 90k's an hour.

without a shirt on.

so both me and the commo throw on the skids and stop, i jump out and run back to the guy, the 2 other blokes in the commo do the same, we get to the guy, hes got blood all over his face, his back and arms are all cut up, and yeah, blood everywhere. and the 2 blokes just throw him back into the car, thank me for stopping, and drive off in a casual way as if all is fine and f**king dandy. f**k.

Just like any other night out for these guys :)

At least the bloke was considerate enough to leave the booze and ciggies in the car before bailing! :)

I lived in Lidabeff during high school ... feral as! :P

    • It says 300ZX, does that make it an Aus delivered car? Funny how back in the day I just couldn't care less about Z32's and these days I am just in love with them. Back when Nissan was into pushing the envelope. 🤣
    • Hi guys, just after some guidance with an R34 sunroof that has stopped working correctly. It still opens and closes perfectly fine, but it no longer tilts/vents up or down. As a result, the rear of the glass now sags a bit as it drops down slightly in order to retract into the roof, but now it can't pop upwards into a flush position. I’ve probed the pins on the back of the switch connector with a multimeter and it seems like both switches (for open/close and tilt/vent) still work correctly. Any ideas on what it could be, or where I should even start in terms of diagnosing? I'm sure someone's had this issue before but I haven't been able to find anything online relating to this specific issue, most of the issues are with the seals leaking or the motor failing entirely. Thanks in advance!
    • Do you have some data like fuel pressure? It's really hard to say if you're still fighting a fuel system issue at this point. Could be something weird like the FPCM dipping out.
    • Yeah in that case, pulling the dent out. Event a very slight dent can create a lot of work filler-wise and there is a strong chance the panel won't be the factory shape when you are done (as the dent will result in a new high point created somewhere, then everything is brought up to that new high point... but the panel shouldn't be that high if that makes sense).  So you've filled and primed the panel and it is flat, why would you go back and remove the primer and add more filler? 
    • Something else I have been faffing with while the car was off the road is making the AC work. Assuming the car isn't at a thermal limit the idea of having AC while waiting in line to go on track sounds delightful. I have actually been lugging around the weight of the entire system since 2018 when the RB25NEO went in without it working at all.  The main reason was in the first few events before I got around to re-gassing it the rubber hose that runs under the manifold had the factory heat wrap/sleeve fail resulting in this: ~2 years ago I purchased a complete used R32 AC line set but when I finally went to install it the line i needed was different where the expansion section is I found a local place that was able to replace the rubber section and re-crimp. They also added some modern heat sleeve to the hose Tight fit but fingers crossed this is the last physical piece of the puzzle needed
