Computer is finally ready. Ended up changing a few things because they were going to take forever to come in. Got 2tb hard drive, GTX460 graphics card and changed the motherboard so the S2V one instead.

In for page 1500

In other news, I just found out you can do this on SAU:

  • This
  • and this
  • and one of these in this order

Have another request if someone has it. Im having trouble getting the very top bolt on the gearbox so im in need of a very long 1/2" extension bar or similar to get at it :thanks:

Nutha Dan trick, Loosen the front xmember bolts. this will allow the gearbox to tilt back even further enabling you to get those pesky top bolts without needing the extensions. :thumbsup:

Duuuuuuuuude don't start about Zillmere - my dad has a house there and I house-sat for a month over xmas. Being woken up more than 50% of nights by groups of howling f**kwits at 2am?

Seriously? In this day and age?

It's ridiculous how living at Wavell Heights, like 7 minutes away, makes such a difference. I'm quite happy to walk around here at night, leave my laser unlocked on the street etc. I wouldn't even look through a window outside at Zillmere at night.

Lived there for six months. In the first week we had a darky come up to the house, ask for a cigarette and try sell us pot.

In that 6 months we saw undercover police do a raid on the house across the street, child welfare take a kid away, a black kid across the street of 8 years old steal his dads van and drive off down the street, raging parties with a mob of 50 - 70 people walking down the street.

It was interesting.

I wish i did this when i pulled my gear box. i didn't think about it till i put it back in :(

Lol. Them darkies is always up to something.

There was also this old white dude who would roll around on an old people scooter and sell drugs off it. He'd cruise down our street to 7/11 and I still see him when I drive past

    • As I've said elsewhere, I am using the stock intercooler piping path in the engine bay, and a return flow cooler, and making ~250 rwkW (without any effort put into trying to turn it up past there just yet) and expect to be able to make some more, and frankly, I would be perfectly happy with 260-270rwKW. This is peak road Skyline usability territory. You go past there and, sure, the car will snap necks more when it's on boost, but it will also break shit all the time, cost a (even larger) fortune in tyres, etc etc. Anyway, I also do not like the over-the-fan pipe path, and you don't have to do it.
    • I see, honestly I’m not too fussed about the looks. The only reason to go plenum is to make the piping easier instead of the classic over the rad etc. 
    • Not easy to quantify wrt something like how many fractions of a second slower it would be over 0-100. But given that a 250-300rwkW car is able to do that launch sprint in 5-6 sec (and faster with appropriate tyres, and surface)..... giving up as much as a second would feel like torture. A ~450HP capable turbo is not going to make lots of boost in the 2000-3000 rpm range. So, whilst with some boost on hand it will be faster accelerating in that rev range than your engine currently is NA, it will not feel like a fast car until the boost is solidly in. You know what your car feels like right now when you open it up at 2000rpm. if you've ever been in an actual fast car, you will appreciate that the NARB25 is.... not exciting. Well, add some boost and it will be better. But shorten the intake runners and it might not be better at all. It might come out better, but it could end up feeling the same. For me, it's not the 0-X km/h sprints that matter. It is easy to fry the tyres with anything over 200 rwkW. You can't use all the power available in 1st and 2nd anyway, you have to modulate the throttle. What matters is how the car reacts when you're driving in traffic in 4th or 5th and have maybe 2000 rpm on board, and you want/need to add some speed quickly, and don't have time for the downshift. It won't make boost, it will be all NA (at the speeds we're talking about - remember how fast you're going at 2000 in 4th! and don't plan on breaking the limit by too much.) So giving away NA torque is not what I would consider practical for a street car. And retaining that NA torque builds boost faster which makes the car faster. The flashy plenum is not actually better, unless you're looking at a track car where you can keep it on the boil all the time.  
    • So how much difference does it make you think? Like 1 second in the 0-100?  I was have smaller turbo so hopefully that spools quick GTX2871.  currently it’s NA so you can imagine pretty slow, but I do want fast accusation a little as there’s not many places I’ll be driving where I go over 80 even near me. So 0-60 and 0-80 targets
