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

yeh an i apparently joined a month ago - im such a n00bie-whore :blush:

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.

    • Power steering is probably because someone has nuked the HICAS CU and you no longer have the variable power asist doing what it is supposed to. How much boost are you running? You are aware that any more than 10 psi on the stock ECU is just asking for it to go to full R&R (that's Rich & Retard, which is effectively Retarded and Retarded!) which kills all the power. Depending on the exact conditions, it can just be runnign on the fat and stupid end of the maps, then the conditions change, you make a little more boost and the ECU goes into panic.
    • @BuiltNotBought Just as GTSboy said.   If you want driveabilty and more low down torque..keep the stock runners. They are VERY good from a factory. I have them too on my RB25DET NEO and as a GTSboy i have fmic but with stock piping route(i have Blitz intercooler) Iam making around 320 BHP and the car pulls "hard" from like 2,5k all the way to 7k. I have it dyno tuned to mimic N/A power curve and making little less max torque due to the smallbox tranny. But driveability is very great. I had 350Nm below 3k so car feels very quick.
    • Looking to sort out a couple of issues on my skyline  It recently was rebuilt, however rebuilder long story short did not give two flying effs about the work he did. So moving forward it's running but I have two persistent issues 1) it has a misfire / lag type of issue (was at higher RPMs but I had a dead piggy back ecu removed which improved it) now it's not as bad but still does it at random, I thought it may have been a boost issue I'm running an older turbosmart dual stage controller, turbosmart told me to try running off gate pressure however it still has a lag at random times. It has New MAF, maf plug, coil packs, sparks, CP harness.. injectors tested and cleaned. Factory ECU. 2) Power steering issue. It is tight as anything. Flushed power steering, rebuilt my pump because the bearing was shot. Flushed again still tight (mainly when parking and going slow into my driveway etc)  No kinks in hard lines, replaced the lines I could see had cracks. Still tough to steer.  I was told to shim a coin and place into the solenoid plug? Is there anything else. My steering angle sensor also has a issue. It's a used one I replaced, does it need to be calibrated? I feel like I've tried everything and this car is my voodoo doll.   
    • Holy shit... wow!!! I totally missed this
    • One main filter. Each tank has a prefilter to keep rocks and small children out, then the big main filter that also does water separation. Clogged the first one so bad it was like a rev limiter at 3200rpm. Literally just like dropping the throttle off and maintaining rpm!
