@Colin: I may be able to drive the GT-R to willowbank for the drags for ya :D

I also mang it up in the office.

A mang is... well webster's dictionary defines it as...

umm...

It's a cool word though mang

Gramlight 57d got those fluoro colours and they're pretty affordable.

gramlights affordable? ;)

With the R33 I'd be going for a 5 or 6 spoke rim. LMGT4, TE37, GTCs or go for mesh rims like BBS LMs or Work VS-XX

In other news the unit now has power :) Only phone n internets to sort out now. Win.

Yes. Not all Gramlight but the specific design I'm suggesting. The 57d were quoted by Streeter

Gram Light 57D 18" x 9.5J +12 22,910yen eachRough costs on that would be something like this...

Cost of item ¥91,640

Ship item to me ¥0

Bank fee to pay seller ¥630

My commission ¥7,000

Removing 4 tyres ¥0

Shipping to Aus via Sea assuming 13 kg ¥31,200

* (I could be off with the weight but what ever it costs to send Ill

pass on to you)

ROUGH TOTAL in Yen: ¥130,470

ROUGH TOTAL: $1,875

Comparing to

TE37 in 18" x 10.5J +22 52390yen each

*this quote is based on sea post, they are over max size so there is

a change they might have to be sent by EMS.

Rough costs on that would be something like this...

Cost of item ¥209,560

Ship item to me ¥0

Bank fee to pay seller ¥630

My commission ¥14,000

Removing 4 tyres ¥0

Shipping to Aus via Sea assuming 12 kg x4 ¥29,800

* (I could be off with the weight but what ever it costs to send Ill

pass on to you)

ROUGH TOTAL in Yen: ¥253,990

ROUGH TOTAL: $3,649

*depending on exchange rate. current rate is 72.9

These would be a lot cheaper with the current exchange rate sitting around 85?

I got told today theres a high chance of me heading up to site either in Jan or Feb.... WOOOOOooooo COILOVER HERE I COME!

Dudeman why dont u just get a job on a mine site and then you can earn sweet moneys ?

Nah dw Martin I think it's probably better my car doesn't go the drags. The noises the gearbox is making atm are pretty disgusting. Another thing on the list for while its off the road.

Yeah but those gramlights are pretty gay. If you're going to have them you have to have the 57 Pros.

What site?

All the arse rape puts me off working in the mines.

I wanna know the design part of things rather than operational for starters. And I'll need the commission experience if I wanna go down the path I'm planning.

    • For fuelling the Haltechs have O2WB fuel controllers. Very useful for helping tuning VE and correcting for *small* mistakes. Of course if your injector/cam/trigger/sensor data is just wrong (or for a GTT which is not a GT) then you will get impossible reactions to things. I am sure you know this already but the reason people don't typically put haltechs (or any Aftermarket ECU) on GT's is because there's practically no real gains to be had - So this knowledge won't be commonplace.
    • Can someone tell me if the cracks seen in the rear sway bar bushings in these photo's is unacceptable from a roadworthy point of view?  
    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
