Whats the difference? I always thought airbox are something you used to cover the pod filters which sorta affect flow but will keep the cops away. Or are the pod filters a replacement of airbox...?

Standard airbox's are black plastic things which have a panel filter inside.

ARC airbox's which Nismoman is talking about are alloy and bigger capacity and have an arc panel filter inside.

airboxes dont flow anyless then a pod filter really unless you have the air flow blocked off, but then your a nob.

People put boxes around pods to premote cooler air intake, so blocking off the engine back from the air filter...works a treat.

oh and maybe get your injectors cleaned, maybe that will help.

I am still running stock rb25 injectors for 280rwkw.

Edit: But I do have a fuel reg, and big fuel pump.

Yea I already know that. In fact so long as you've got the money, everything is easy. I dont think you'll be saying that if you've gotta pay 3k a month for homeloan.

You can tell me to bugger off, but out of interest who are you paying $750pw to and what are the loan terms and how much was it? (PM)

That’s a pretty serious repayment… (currently wearing his Real Estate agent hat). One of my old brokers did some magic things with numbers, but not everyone is suitable to refinance..

whores lol.

Agree with pretty much everything Nismo has said lol. Making power with a gtr is easy but it costs money so man up and buy the gear lol.

You man up and buy some gear :blush:

You've got PM. But basically 3k is including extra repayment and I like to have 3 months salary in the bank just for emergency. So as much as I like to spend those money, I wouldnt.

Very nice. Yea just got it tuned last week so I'll probably fault find and see if I can find out where is restricting the boost.

Would love to earn 3k a month in the first place :blush: But I get ya, more important things than the car to spend money on :)

You man up and buy some gear :(

I'm a pussy. I will gladly have pinkies raised at me. But everything I earn gets put into the car, I just don't earn enough to buy anything really cool :blink:

Yes I do alot of work for shit pay in the hope that when I finish uni they will remember all the shit I've done for them and reward me accordingly. I should be able to skip a couple of pay grades because I've started so early.

I haven't had a pay rise since Jan 2008 so I'm f**kin due one. flamin mongrels.

@thristan, i think shan has merged all your old posts into astrothristan2, but it hasn't updated your post count

i asked to have my joined date set at 14th april 2002 (when sau started) but i didnt get a reply

laaaaaaaaaaaaaaame!

we can't all be mega-rice house salesmen :blush:

I haven’t been a sleazy house sales-boy in years! Dabbled in property management and Business Development for the salary security.

I change jobs as often as I change cars haha!! If only you knew what has crossed my mind this time (job wise).

I'm pretty sure you will be and the other advantage is I find Aussies in general value experience and relationship more than anything else. So you'll probably end up being offered a job there (save you the trouble of looking for a job at this kinda economic situation).

They hardly increase vac student's pay anyway or at least I know my company doesnt. When are you graduatiing? My company's looking for grads if you're interested.

    • 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).
    • ECUtalk pages don't mention they support the ABS computer (consult port has more than one CAN), so you might just need a different scan tool. But, I would expect ABS is a different light to the brake warning/handbrake light, do you see an ABS light come on for a few seconds when you turn the key from ACC to IGN? But since you said: I'd have a look at the ABS sensors in the rear hubs to make sure they are not damaged, disconnected etc.
