I'd be up for it: will have fresh paint by then!

stealing ur idea a lil... when i get the car im going to see what sort of finish is on the paint. if its not like GLASS, i will be rubbing back the clear coat a lil and busting out a few coats, so i can rub it back to smooth with some 2000grit paper and buff it to mirror finish. Black has to be SUPER shiny to be good i reckon... Getting an aero grille too, through slidewize imports, and doing something tricky with the taillights.

I better get second pole position for being second person to post haha.... Big cruise down to sydney! SLeep in the back of teh waggins. Or string hammocks between them.

Convoy! We'll all need cb's and call signs... :) and trucker hats...... and no-doze...... and other less legal stimulants...... just like real truckers.....

*Disclaimer* Not actually knowing any truck drivers, I make all these comment in jest, and in no way intend to imply that truckers wear trucker hats, or take no-doze

    • My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.
    • Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?
    • What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
