haha... i was referring to the shit that the punks did to your car. I can really feel your pain when i saw the pictures... muthafarkers .... browse your pbase.com before, i tot tat you had a garage for your car? wat is it doing outside in the first place?

btw, saw your intro in the previous thread. Aren't you supposed to finish your NS first before coming over?

I know that becos i am a fellow kiasu S'porean as well :-) Currently doing my masters here in UQ.

brianlee i wouldnt put it past some people to damage your car after you beat em in a race.

just before my licence was handed in, i had some smartass in a silvia tailgating me on a single lane road, the road spread into 2 lanes for a good 200m then back into one, he tried boosting past me and i let him come along side and then blew his doors off, needless to say he followed me round for ages, so i just drove up into the mountains and lost him.

seems some people cant take a beating

genesisr32 - I was meant to, however i wanna finish uni before NS therefore with a degree therefore there's a higher chance for me to put trained as a commando or a pilot. not just a truckie. :)

I have a garage for my car, but clutch TOTALLY went and couldnt get it up driveway, its a steep one too. U're the 3rd Singaporean I've seen here, Tops to that!!!! Singapore ROcks, I'm goin back end of year and see what kinda cheap sound/performance parts i can get my hands on.

Belgarion - lets say hypothetically the guy in the wrx whom i beat in one race did vandalise my car, how should i approach it and ask him. WIth a car like a wrx, he should understand how much love we have for our vehicles

dunno, do you know his gf? just keep an eye on how they act when they see your car.

if he did it chances are he woulda told her, and she would look at you rather scornfully if she knew that you had payed good money to repair damage that her bf had done......

either that or talk to her and see her reaction to it or something, most i can suggest is to watch how people act when they see your car, sooner or later someones gonna let it slip,

way to go!!.. with a degree, you will most likely proceed to higher ranking uniform. I got to know a couple of pilots who got posted here (2 years) and they each got themselves STIs, FCs, Supras, etc...

if you are going back to Singapore, you might wanna go to Miki's. (www.mikimarketing.com) He got lots of stuffs at a reasonable price. Mostly cosmetic though. I got my millennium MOMO from him at a very good price. For parts, you can ask RB26DETT. He's a member in this forum and a proud owner of a 33GTR. He is now back in Sg and getting ALOT of stuffs for his car (conrods, oil cooler, etc)

hypothetically speaking, anyone whom you blow away in a street race is potentially a culprit. Sunnybank area is well-known for having alot of performance car owners... and alot of punks as well... some of them might bear grudges against you. Just thk carefully in the past weeks whether you accidentally offended anyone besides the WRX fellow... but then again, i thk the chances of you finding the person behind your ordeal is very slim... just be careful with where you park your gal next time.

cheers buddy

hey genesisr32 - have u done ur NS? 3rd SIngaporean on SAU. that ROCKS! I couldnt imagine owning a skyline in singapore. the cost would be sooooo much. So yeah I'm happy here, might go back for NS maybe be a commando :)

bryanlee - done with my NS liaoz. Finished my poly before coming over. Completed my IT degree and now getting my Masters.

and yes, its farking expensive to own a skyline in SIngapore. There are about 2 - 3 registered r32 and slightly less than 12 registered R33 on Singapore roads but the number of R34 is increasing. Mostly non-turbo GTS. A friend of mine told me that alot of the R34 owners put the GTR logo at the back.. wah lau eh.. lamers... i thk if i go back to Singapore, i can only afford a motorcycle with the current value of my R32 :-

btw, how's your car coming along? you managed to remove all the shit yet?

GenesisR32

I've had my stereo flogged in front of my house. Cops didn't do a thing. Had fingerprints on a lighter. s.o.b's.

My oldmans house got broken into, stole a shitload of stuff including some of my tools. The neighbor saw it, got the car make and rego and gave it to me. Went to the cops and they didn't do a thing.

Used to carry a wooden baseball bat. It split. Now i carry a metal one. I'm waiting for someone to piss me off or do something to my car.

motorx - u r half singaporean? doin NS???

genesisr32 - yeah man. skylines r rare as in SG. I wanted to imort them into SG but realise the laws prohibit cars older then 3 years (from 1st day of registration) are not allowed to be imported into SG. :rolleyes: I'll be happy when i can be.

I've gotten most of the shit off my car, all god sanded down with '1200' sand paper. So yeah, just getting the panels repainted.should be good as new. I've decided not to go chasing the ***heads who did it. Just gonna play more safe with my car. I would still luv to smash them though, which i think might not happen. I've got suspicions, but that's about it

33booby - where suburb did this occur by the way? (if u dont midn me askin that is)

bryanlee - i calculated before... the road tax + shipping + COE ...its not worth it even the government allows it. Might as well buy a brand new skyline in singapore.

keep you car in the garage whenever you are home. park in a brightly lit area when you are outside. if you are camping at a friend's place, take a bus... safer...

    • I seem to the be only person that is using a Haltech 2500 on an NA motor, I've installed a Bosch DBW throttle body to the OEM intake manifold and am having problems maintaining AFR even with the wideband o2.  It will run extremely rich at idle and up to redline, but under load it will go extremely lean in the 20s and i'm essentially having to rev it over 4k and feather the clutch to get it up to speed.  I've read a few other threads of about the butterfly, it seems removing the vacuum to it is supposed to have it remain open, i've noticed no difference under 4k with the vacuum line to it plugged.  I'm hoping someone here has had luck using the NA manifold with Haltech, and if they happen to have a tune for it.  
    • I don't know any details, but I really wouldn't be surprised if they do it as a LHD only version, at least initially.
    • Thanks for the replies everyone. Definitely a coolant push. Oil catch can is empty and always has been. As the engine is out now I'll be having a good look over things. I do have some detonation on the piston tops from a trigger issue back about 5 years ago. I felt it and shut off then bought a new ecu and changed the trigger. Never been an issue since. It never hurt the power, its made almost 80hp more since that incident but I will pull the bearing caps to take a look. If the bearings are damaged I will do a bottom end refresh. Head is being re conditioned at the moment and the block will be cleaned and checked to ensure it's flat. I'll go with a kameari gasket and see how it ends up. The other thing I'm not super keen on is the cylinder colours. I suspect this is from the inlet manifold. The plan will be to put it back together, retune and then stick a plazmaman billet inlet on it and retune. I'm happy with the power, if it makes a little more, then great, but I would rather just make everything more efficient at this stage.
    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
