It would of been the single greatest day in your life tyson...but you missed it. well i guess there is always next life. (right now i know a bunch of people are wondering why i used the term life and not year allow me to present my case then critisize my selection of vocabulary) <based on tysons driving ability he has managed to trash his non turbo skyline just a month and a half after aquiring it... it begs the question how does one loose control of something with minimal power unless someone was doing something stupid. so based on that I am being brutally honest when it comes to a young driver and using a term that has a little more impact in the hopes that he learns how to drive and doesn't wind up missing next years SCC due to a fatal tree to the car like incident.> and with that oer the day was good lots of sexy lines and some really stylish mods to boot.

Snap? :ph34r:

I accelerated too fast out of a roundabout when it was pelting down rain. I haven't had my license for long either so i had no idea that the amount of acceleration i did would've spun my car out. Oh and also i over corrected myself when i started sliding, otherwise theres a high possibility i wouldn't have crashed. Also i never drove in wet weather when on my Ls, my mum wouldn't let me because she said i was too 'unexperienced', i often argued "how the hell am i supposed to get experience if i never drive in wet weather?" but it never got me anywhere.

Either way i don't think its nice to assume i was doing something stupid when you don't know the whole story. I never do anything stupid in my car since its not cheap to fix nor was it cheap to buy.

Saying 'next life' to me, doesn't effect me at all. If i kill myself in an accident then so be it, at least i won't be alive to care.

this is a sensless statement; you don't know the circumstances of Tyson's 'accident'.. wet weather brings plenty of drivers undone; not all are "stupid". if you have to crap on someone, crap on his Mum for not ensuring he had time behind the wheel in the wet. she obviously knows there are special skills/knowledge required for wet weather driving.

What really happened was he clutch kicked it out on the exit of the roundabout in an attempt to bake 2nd and do some hectik dorifuto. Don't feel bad ive got a mate who in the first week of owning his car did a similar thing by the sounds on it on a roundabout in the wet and went into a fence. He also then backed into another fence on another date...... I don't talk to him much anymore.

get your car fixed, stay alive, and we'll see you for SCC 2009!!.

dont fell to bad i have crashed in the wet

at least mine was a massive oil patch and all i done was f**k up my coilover and my 17x10" work miesters :P but atleast there was an unmarked cop behind me who spun out aswell and went into a light pole :)

I hear what your saying..... I wouldnt worry about what anyone says on this forum anyway mate. As long as your safe and didnt get hurt, thats all you need to worry about :P

P.S. - As silly as it seems, you might want to invest in a driver training course... They can be really fun and you get to know your car exceptionally well. I took my old R34 4-door out to the skid pad and learnt allot about safety.

Take care

    • 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.
