you can;t really knock off a company just because of one bad experience, and if the company is not up to standard it doesn;t mean that you can;t get better elsewhere locally. Like dan said i would like to see you get service like what shauno got from Ozgiken. Sometimes you have wonder is the japanese stuff worth it as they usually cost more than locally manifactured stuff. sometimes it may be worth it sometimes not.

Jay have you seen the stuff on Unique Autosports at the moment... there are a set of Yokohama Wets for $290 in 17"... they look sweet... few race seats and stuff... oh... and one for me a Veilside 2pc front bar for a S13 silvia.... I'm getting my credit card out already... :rofl: just kidding...

Yeah but we're both pimping in the 18" crew :)

Hey talking of the end of August is anyone racing at Benaraby in the mid august... what is the exact dates again??

I would be keen but I haven't done a single thing to the Silvia so I might just save my money until my cooler kit gets here... Actually Jay I was thinking that after the cooler kit I should get one of those nice polished exhaust manifolds you were talking about... Polished piping... I could be pimping too....

Actually you should check out www.sarukaauto.com.au/current.htm

I have a friend that loves starlets... she wanted a turbo rig so can anyone find any cheap ones for sale... neat stockers probably would be the best.... and preferably red... she loves red... So tell me what sort of prices she should look for??

talking of that... who has High Octane 4... and why haven't we got it??

cause theres a shortage of it .... tried to buy a copy the other day and no one in rocky has any in stock. autospeed are about the only place on the net that still has stock.

Willo have a look at www.aablatch.com.au/daikin.shtml

they might have something you can use... that clutch on the top of their page looks like it could take just a little bit of abuse...

Maybe see if you can find which one you like best and then call in squizz to do some cut-throat bargining...

Hey shaun do Nicks do a twin plate or anything of the kind...

whats wrong with exedy clutches - their japanese though ..... www.exedy.co.jp

centreforce - american though - www.centerforce.com

then you've got osgiken .... i can;t find any websites for ozzy made clutches. either they don't advertise with search engines or they don't have websites ....

Hey matt are any of your team headed down the drags to the test and tune... has anyone talked Rick into it yet?? Dev seems pretty keen so that should be good to see... I don't know about wiether to race or not... maybe if Jay races... or pete... that sounds like alot of work getting pete's car going again though... although mad mountain runs are go... Jay is going to show us why four doors are more balanced than two... hell I seen the sideways action last night... don't tell me you weren't flying cause I was going and I saw your headlights the whole way up... actually I think I touched over 140 at one point... not that we encourage that sort of behaviour....

actually I am bulk impressed with the Scibyline... It goes hard... He called me from the lap and within a couple of minutes he was at the top of the Mount... and he lead the way down... if it wasn't for that damn S12... but he did keep us all on the safe side... I actually like going up rather than down... it feels more controlled...

anyway... that is me for the day... time for some Bersy Lunch...

have fun guys...

and stay safe...

That clutch at the top of the page looks exactly the same as the Nismo one I bought. It uses a strap system which has been superseded and you can't get clutch plates for it any more. The closest plates don't fit properly and are $400 a piece.

    • AHHHH gotchaa, I'll do that once I am home again. I tried doing the harness with the multimeter but it seems the car needed a jump, there was no power when it was in the "ON" position. Not sure if I should use car battery jump starter or if its because the stuff that has been disconnect the car just does send power.
    • As far as I can tell I have everything properly set in the Haltech software for engine size, injector data, all sensors seem to be reporting proper numbers.  If I change any injector details it doesnt run right.    Changing the base map is having the biggest change in response, im not sure how people are saying it doesnt really matter.  I'm guessing under normal conditions the ECU is able to self adjust and keep everything smooth.   Right now my best performance is happening by lowering the base map just enough to where the ECU us doing short term cut of about 45% to reach the target Lambda of 14.7.  That way when I start putting load on it still has high enough fuel map to not be so lean.  After 2500 rpm I raised the base map to what would be really rich at no load, but still helps with the lean spots on load.  I figure I don't have much reason to be above 2500rpm with no load.  When watching other videos it seems their target is reached much faster than mine.  Mine takes forever to adjust and reach the target. My next few days will be spent making sure timing is good, it was running fine before doing the ECU and DBW swap, but want to verify.  I'll also probably swap in the new injectors I bought as well as a walbro 255 pump.  
    • It would be different if the sealant hadn't started to peel up with gaps in the glue about ~6cm and bigger in some areas. I would much prefer not having to do the work take them off the car . However, the filler the owner put in the roof rack mount cavities has shrunk and begun to crack on the rail delete panels. I cant trust that to hold off moisture ingress especially where I live. Not only that but I have faded paint on as well as on either side of these panels, so they would need to come off to give the roofline a proper respray. My goal is to get in there and put a healthy amount of epoxy instead of panel filler/bog and potentially skin with carbon fiber. I have 2 spare rolls from an old motorcycle fairing project from a few years back and I think it'd be a nice touch on a black stag.  I've seen some threads where people replace their roof rack delete with a welded in sheet metal part. But has anyone re-worked the roof rails themselves? It seems like there is a lot of volume there to add in some threads and maybe a keyway for a quick(er) release roof rack system. Not afraid to mill something out if I have to. It would be cool to have a cross bar only setup. That way I can keep the sleek roofline that would accept a couple bolts to gain back that extra utility  3D print some snazzy covers to hide the threaded section to be thorough and keep things covered when not using the rack. 
    • Probably not. A workshop grade scantool is my go to for proper Consult interrogation. Any workshop grade tool should do it. Just go to a workshop.
    • In my head it does make sense to be a fuel problem since that is what I touched when cleaning the system. When I was testing with the fuel pressure gauge, the pressure was constantly 2.5 bar with the FPR vacuum removed. When stalling, the pressure was going up to 3.0 bar (which is how it should be on ignition).
