Sound spot on in all respects...nothing like a nice view while your eating :laugh:

Sad thing is I'm way way over the s.e, I don't get over that side too often... but next time I'm out that way I'll definately check it out.

Cheers

lets not forget the utes are called trucks now too hehe

Truck, mini truck and pickup truck, seems they can't make up their minds ..anyone called my ute any of those I reckon I might kick em in the nuts.

real aussies don't drive SUV's they drive Forbee's :domokun: Middle aged mums with horrible driving skills drive SUV's.

lol good luck trying to say "I gotta put gas in my Skyline" with a straight face in Melbourne... we still use natural gas, and that's not what you'd put in a performance car.

fender's one of those interchangeable ones... as I've heard it used in the colonies too.

get this though... in the UK they call widebody guards "wide arch kits". lol.

unless you have a straight gas r33 with 300kw :domokun: that would be tough and the EPA and TMU will be cursing! freaking cops... cops of men!

americans are stupid full stop.. seriously.. SUV.. they arnt even SPORTY!! get urself a hilux.. put a 2jzgte with a t78 on the bastard and thats sport!!

One of my best mates is a mechanic and at his workshop one day Nova came down and was doing a big promotion for gas conversions for cars.

They actually had a Skyline come into their garage who has done a complete gas conversion (cant even run off petrol anymore, solely gas), and they actually produced more power with no other modifications. Supposedly if you do a full conversion properly (changing injectors, etc) to only run gas, your car will put out more power, and of course be cheaper to run in the end.

Food for thought :)

yeah LPG has a higher octane rating than petrol... if i had the cash i would run a straight gas r33.. and cops cant touch ya.. DUNN DUN DUN DUN CANT TOUCH YA... STOP HAMMERTIME

Cracks me up. HAMMERTIME!

watch a few eps of top gear and you'll see not all those terms arent as american as you think

Clarksons a nub...always has been. I spent a fair bit of time in the uk car scene and being of welsh/english origins It saddens me to see Englishmen adopting Americanisms just as much as we do here. He's an amusing presenter but when it comes to vehicle knowledge and practical application of it he's a tit head who doesnt know his arse from his elbow. The same goes for May and Hammond to differring degrees.

Hey I am as guilty as the next guy as i don't proof read my posts and my typing is terrible. But what does bother me is the rather ordinary spelling on forums. Add to that all the terms and bitchery of the English language because we are too lazy to type an extra letter of three.

Wtf sure you dont mean fairings?

Fairing is the body work that protects the rider from the wind (round engine, up side, over instruments etc), Guards are th bits over the wheels.

I use wing mirrors, that's what I always called them, I suppose because I always called the fenders/guards 'wings', and that's where the mirrors started out before more modern cars moved them to the door. (probably just a UK thing)

    • You’ll be very upset when you bust that too not to mention the gearing totally sucks. Don’t do it.
    • Is the panel filter one that is oiled? Have you ever cleaned or touched the AFM?
    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
