Hahaha i definately <3 those pics too... I put a couple on facebook and got whored by many females hahahahahahaha

I just don't get it....... like, AT ALL. There's nothing appealing to me at all. Ahhh dear.

On another note, do we know anyone with an R34 4 door, plates EIN34? Saw her at aspley about 9pm, I was about to wave, and had a stupid sheepish grin on my face like 'HEY LOOK AT ME I KNOW SAU' and she just snobbed me bigtime hahahaha. Fail.

I hate this twilight shit.

The end.

So I'm probably a no show this Thursday. The car is hiccuping and hesitating like I have a leak somewhere. My other thought it that it might be my injectors, not sure yet. All fluids are fine, temperature is fine, but whenever I accelerate she hesitates and then goes from no boost to full boost, or struggles to hold boost (especially uphill).

I don't want to risk blowing something up, so for now I'm semi offroad until I get some fundage together to get the car looked at. That probably won't be until the new year thanks to the Christmas season sucking away all my money :blink:

So this also means I'm out for this weekend down the coast. And probably out from Wednesday/Thursday meets until I can sort out the problem.

Hahaha, sorry man. I have a spare r33 stock fuel pump that might be of use? Not sure if it fits the r32 bracket though, but can't imagine it won't considering gtr pumps fit nicely. I dont have the filter though cos the walbro ones are shit which is what I got mine replaced with. Actually.... the walbro pumps are shit in general, worst upgrade done to my car.

Thanks man, I'll see if I can find out if it'll fit. The filter is fine, that was replaced when I got the car.

Tomorrow I'm going to check all my hoses and make sure none are split. Then see if I can hit my cousin up to use his hoist and make sure that I don't have any gaps in my exhaust etc. I'm just hoping that it's not a dead turbo.

Yeah man, no worries. I was talking about the filter on the fuel pump itself. They come with this mesh pocket thing, stock one should be sweet though. Normally you can see oil splattering around the turbo if it's dead cos the seals blow out first. I could be wrong though. If it is dead, be a good excuse for a highflow. Not a major job on your car either :) Gaps in the exhaust you can normally hear or smell them. My money's on the fuel pump or a fkd injector maybe

Ahhh good point about being able to smell an exhaust hole. I think I was worrying so much I forgot about that. I never smell fuel/exhaust so that's a step in the right direction.

Highflow? Cat? Don't need one ;)

I'll get into the engine bay tomorrow and double check everything. Do some tightening of clamps etc.

when my stock turbo on the 32 was on the way out i had the same thing - itd boost and then nothing at all

i found it slowly got worse the long i drove - like once the car was warm and i started hitting boost it was ok, but if i smashed it/clutch kicked it - after that shot of boost it'd go to shit for a bit

im sorry to hear your misfortune bro - im happy to help where i can

Suitcase full of money? :)

with that said - rb25 turbos are cheap and a great bang for buck upgrade ;)

yeah, the plan was an R34 turbo when this one died. Might be a sooner than expected upgrade

      Is there a good place to learn how an engine works online?

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      What are you planning to do specifically?  I would be very surprised if you need to learn any math for these 'few builds' you have planned for the future.

      I transferred from full time service to Army Reserve, so I still have access, work has been super keen to get me in to work in the OPS realm, so just turning up to use the gym......and ovens, isn't causing any issues, apart from me needing to keep on telling them that I won't be doing any reserve days until I get my joint in Goulburn sorted  Basically I can now work whenever I want, for how long I want now, and it's all tax free Next time we have some fires or floods you might see me covered in mud, or cutting sick in some plant equipment cleaning up, the Reserves love getting in the news, LOL

      Final finish outcome of 80°c was typical to the pics, I've turned the oven down to 50°c and will pick them up after the gym tomorrow  The before and after difference was amazing, the wrinkle paint has covered all of the casting marks completely It did take a couple of hours to key it all and get in all of the crevices, but, for me it was time well spent for the final outcome, but I have all the time in the world to do it at the moment  Ended up with 4 coats, each sprayed at different angles to get optimal coverage and thickness As for the fixtures and intake box thingo that hasn't made it, the supplier is apparently posting the fixtures, and, are now sending a different CAI that is in stock The replacement CAI is actually better than what I originally ordered, but will require a pod filter that locates under the front bar, still serviceable, but it basically removes the whole OEM filter box and ducts into the front bar, so filter cleaning will require ramps and the removal of some front bar undertray, not a war stopper, just some ramps and an additional 10 minutes work every few months From looking at it it is made from alloy pipe from the throttle body, through the CAI hole in the rad support, then right turning under the bar, luckily the wrinkle paint was on special and I got 2 cans for $30ish, so the alloy will get the same wrinkle treatment as the intake manifold, hopefully it turns up soon, either way, the car will be getting booked in soon, if the parts aren't here, I'll just get MX5 Mania to " make it work"

      I'm so glad base security is so high. I see they stopped some random codger from being able to just wander in off the street... 😛   PS, intake looks good!
