Enjoy your fluffy pink seat covers

Disclaimer: the above is an assumption based on your softness :P

:O

My secret shame!

Your not going to go racing around the track with aircon.....surely?

Done that once, Eastern Creek 2006, 42 degrees outside.

Stinking hot day, so much free space on track cause most people didnt show up due to the heat.

Left street tyres on and just went out there for a blast cause the day was all paid for, had the day off work etc. Went WOT happily, water temp was fine and oil temp was around 100. A mates GTR kept on splitting the stock intercooler pipe (rubber one) so most of the afternoon was spent helping him while it was hottest outside around 2pm literally dripping in sweat.

Wouldnt do it again, id go to the pub instead.

:P

You have redeemed yourself, good sir.

But yes, f**k that. 42 degrees...I'd hate to think how bloody hot it was getting inside the cabin of someone not running their aircon.

I have done this on 35c days, make it easier to concentrate and more enjoyable. The air con cuts out at high rpm anyway.

lol

Huge power and all the modcons = perfect setup

Enjoy your sweatboxes guys smile.gif

Exactly, it makes the experience that much more enjoyable.

I don't understand why you guys have dailys or don't drive your skylines around the street. Unless they aren't road legal then why not get the most out of your money and enjoy it every single day? Makes sense to me, I couldn't handle driving another car and missing out on the skyline love every morning : )

Well my mate didnt use AC, from memory he had a blown fuse, anyway his seat was soaked, shirt soaked, pants soaked, socks soaked, wiping sweat from his forhead down the straight. He did NOT have a fun day

Dave and I are alike there, we LOVE our skylines in the morning.....like 6am in a nice quiet set of hills on deserted roads haha

Daily drivers are great. You get in, it always works without fuss, zero effort to drive, comfortable suspension, no 3 plate clutch, park it anywhere, cops dont even look at you, skyline can be in workshops for months at a time and it doesnt matter......wheres the downside lol

For me it's pretty simple. I refuse to park my car in a busy car park all day. I've had way to many things happen to it from doing that and I swear I will snap and kill some one if something happens again.

Even when I drove it to uni (before the motorbike) I used to park far away by myself and i would still be paranoid all lesson in class.

I like to drive it and enjoy it for the pleasure of driving it, not parking it with redneck retards in car parks that come to town once a week to stock up on supplies.

Sorry for the rant, you just hit a nerve lol.

+1 , there's nothing worse than having to worry about your car all day whilst working

    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
