I need to invest in a windscreen sun deflector thing. Got in my car this afternoon, and apart from 50'c heat coming out of it, I noticed a little bubble on the dash :(

I just realised I may have run into you before, have you bought through Core Computers?

just keep a pair of baby socks in the car, fits perfectly over the gear knob and either stops it from getting hot in first place if you remember to put it on when parking, or protects your hand after the fact if you forget.

nah thats what i use the footy socks for

Stupid boost leak...... I think Martin's right, exhaust leak before the turbo, my money is on the turbo manifold gasket not seated properly.

Fun weekend ahead...

Lads.

Downloaded Unstoppable, Dinner for Schmucks and Burried, so will make a long evening off watching that.

No work to get up for in the morning so can be a late one

Out of beer and bourbon though, so it's going to have to be a dry one.... ghey

On a side note, fair few cops out tonight. Were out in force. Spotted nearly a dozen on my drive into Carina and back.

ravi i'll come around on the weekend sometime for you, plus i got stuff to drop you!

Aircon is awesome to work in, you guys that are mechanics should really work in an aircon'd shop, we don't get above 24 degrees. Old shop was better, 30+ degrees outside and we could keep that place at around 19 degrees all day.

I learnt the lesson with the metal gearknob, now i run a plastic nismo one instead, much nicer on the hand. The rust bucket is running so much smoother now, new gearbox mount finally fixed the vibration i got under hard acceleration.

Sweet mang, that'd be awesome. Dunno when I'm free yet though, but I've got about 3 hours free tonight after work so I'll see about lazily getting into getting all the piping off to save some time later. And yeah keen as for that 'stuff' you got ;)

P.S. Morning mangs!

    • I do like the look of these things (minus the ugly flat top surface with the text) https://rajabracing.com.au/product/nissan-rb25det-neo-intake/ Retains the OEM bottom runners, for that phat low range. If you want response king, maybe go with the Plazmaman pipe work, here's my old setup from a decade ago
    • Torque will suffer greatly, will try and find dyno difference on r34 with gt30 between stock and plazmaman short runner. like 2000-3000rpm power rdip at least. EDIT Green line is stock manifold, others is plazmaman short runner I also had a rb25 with greddy and q45 TB back in the day and was shit daily driving. Plazmaman top plenum with stock runner and DBW made it so much nicer.
    • Welcome to !
    • 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.
