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.

    • Yeah well per the video it took 15s for the stock unit to start up....even if I give it a few seconds discount for starting that is at least 12 sec before you get a reverse camera if you are trying to leave a park.  The android unit is way faster, but 2016 for the stock unit is a long time ago in consumer electronics
    • Yea that’s why I said ima test them with multimeter and see the reads.
    • Only at idle. Isn’t a problem when rev it seems.
    • @Haggerty This seems silly to ask, but are you confident in your ability to tune the Haltech?  
    • Next on the to-do list was an oil and filter change. Nothing exciting to add here except the oil filter is in a really stupid place (facing the engine mount/subframe/steering rack). GReddy do a relocation kit which puts it towards the gearbox, I would have preferred towards the front but there's obviously a lot more stuff there. Something I'll have to look at for the next service perhaps. First time using Valvoline oil, although I can't see it being any different to most other brands Nice... The oil filter location... At least the subframe wont rust any time soon I picked up a genuine fuel filter, this is part of the fuel pump assembly inside the fuel tank. Access can be found underneath the rear seat, you'll see this triangular cover Remove the 3x plastic 10mm nuts and lift the cover up, pushing the rubber grommet through The yellow fuel line clips push out in opposite directions, remove these completely. The two moulded fuel lines can now pull upwards to disconnect, along with the wire electrical plug. There's 8x 8mm bolts that secure the black retaining ring. The fuel pump assembly is now ready to lift out. Be mindful of the fuel hose on the side, the hose clamp on mine was catching the hose preventing it from lifting up The fuel pump/filter has an upper and lower section held on by 4 pressure clips. These did take a little bit of force, it sounded like the plastic tabs were going to break but they didn't (don't worry!) The lower section helps mount the fuel pump, there's a circular rubber gasket/grommet/seal thing on the bottom where the sock is. Undo the hose clip on the short fuel hose on the side to disconnect it from the 3 way distribution pipe to be able to lift the upper half away. Don't forget to unplug the fuel pump too! There's a few rubber O rings that will need transferring to the new filter housing, I show these in the video at the bottom of this write up. Reassembly is the reverse Here's a photo of the new filter installed, you'll be able to see where the tabs are more clearing against the yellow OEM plastic Once the assembly is re-installed, I turned the engine over a few times to help build up fuel pressure. I did panic when the car stopped turning over but I could hear the fuel pump making a noise. It eventually started and has been fine since. Found my 'lucky' coin underneath the rear seat too The Youtube video can be seen here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uLJ65pmQt44&t=6s
