That should get me through for a bit. People at Holden look at you as though you're the scum of the earth when you ask to borrow a tool :down:

Quoted again for pure epicness!! That's f**king sweeeeeeeeeeeeet

Not actually me playing, but this is the pain I'm going through right now, my arm is killing me.

f**k yeah...... not into them but I'm diggin that. I'm relearning the as daylight dies by killswitch at the moment, not too hard or anything, it just seems that I've forgotton how to play most of it when I used to dominate it.

Hope all goes well with your two miso, so guessing soon the 32 will be non registered track car?

Martin, nismo injectors win! INCREASO POWA!

Still Beats Your Name had some fun parts in it. That whole album seems to be hey let's throw a pinch harmonic in here.

John, I am going to steal that tool box. Well, I won't, but my dodgy cousin Igor will.

Dan, rego for 32 gets paid tomorrow, so that means 6 more months of road driving, but the budget is getting tight, so we shall see. might have to go back to workin in prisons. ghey

Hylian, don't think we've met. so far everything is ok, but being 4 weeks early, still need to be monitored for a week or two. can't wait to get them home.

Miso, hope you get your Mini-Misos home soon. At least Marisa is out of the hospital :thumbsup:

Dodgy cousin Igor sounds like a top bloke. I'll be sure not to show him my toolbox.

He's more of a cheap wheels kinda guy, but, as the economy is getting tougher, he is happy to diversify his business port folio.

Winrar!

f**kin winrar. If I ever end up with a garage of my own and or 4k to dump on tools this is what I'll be doing. I won't use them but tools are so much fun to buy. Its like stationery...only less gay.

Hai Guyz,

Scott asked me to poast this today, but I was busy, and then I forgot :whistling:

Sorry Scott.

Laserforks closed tomorrow after 4pm due to renovations. Will be open as usual next week. Anyone know another lazer place?

Or postpone till next week?

Also @John: Nice Tools :thumbsup:

No idea on other place. Too late by now just postpone it for now?

I had it bookmarked until You blokes decided you were gonna go play space cadets instead so I took the other option, Inserting 600 hp between the trembling towers of the chair.

Eat ice cream or power up baby....Tuff choice aye. :rolleyes:

I know which one I'd choose :cheers: What turbo did you end up getting Noel? Sticking with the 35r or have you had enough of them?

mmmmmm....

Hot.

Hope everything goes well and you get them home soon :) Have you got names for them yet? Des and Troy?

Morning Mangs,

Understandable.

I won't use them but tools are so much fun to buy. Its like stationery...only less gay.

So true. Speaking of stationary, where's my stamp?

No idea on other place. Too late by now just postpone it for now?

Yeah just msg'd Scott, postpone PhazerPhun for this week.

We really need to try and actually organise it for next week I think.

I know which one I'd choose :cheers:

So do I... :bunny:

Hot.

That's what she said.

Des and Troy?

RB and Powah

Oh and Morning Mangs!

TFIT? >_<

Thursday is almost as good as friday.

So who's going to buy me a 2012 GTR?

When I make my 15th Million, I'll buy you one :thumbsup:

Off to steal a car from Martin's work :banana:

Successful theft was successful! :ninja:

Orly? Should have given me a buzz, would have come said hi.

Morning,

Just got a new job offer this morning. More money, less responsibility and a bigger, better venue to work at. Got to love that :)

Nice!

oh cool 1 out of my 6 staff are here, WTF. there shalll be mass performance plans in coming weeks me thinks.

What do you do where such mass absenteeism takes place? I can't think of many businesses that wouldn't shut down if no one showed up...

Government. So we wont shut down but we will fail to meet targets by a long way, example, The Act dictates that 80% of renewals need to be done within 30 days. In the last 3 months these numpties acheived 22%. They are understaffed by 2 positions but i still would have expected 65% to 70% done.

Much butt kicking has ensured we are on target this month....but it would seem butt kicking makes the staff run away. However there is a frame work to fix all that by firing if performance plans are not adhered to, I have just started that process so Im guessing attendance will be much better!

So true. Speaking of stationary, where's my stamp?

Yeah just msg'd Scott, postpone PhazerPhun for this week.

Contract Manager is scrutinising all stationery orders atm. We've spent 7k on stationery so far....this year.

So who's going to buy me a 2012 GTR?

Shotty not.

Sounds like a win win. What do you do?

Sack the lot of em. I need to start drafting up my performance agreement for 2011 >_< I hate doing those things.

    • Also, I logged some data from the ECU for each session (mostly oil pressures and various temps, but also speed, revs etc, can't believe I forgot accelerator position). The Ecutek data loads nicely to datazap, I got good data from sessions 2, 3 and 4: https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-2?log=0&data=7 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-3?log=0&data=6 https://datazap.me/u/duncanhandleyhgeconsultingcomau/250813-wakefield-session-4?log=0&data=6 Each session is cut into 3 files but loaded together, you can change between them in the top left. As the test sessions are mostly about the car, not me, I basically start by checking the oil pressure (good, or at least consistent all day). These have an electrically controlled oil pump which targets 25psi(!) at low load and 50 at high. I'm running a much thicker oil than recommended by nissan (they said 0w20, I'm running 10w40) so its a little higher. The main thing is that it doesn't drop too far, eg in the long left hand fish hook, or under brakes so I know I'm not getting oil surge. Good start. Then Oil and Coolant temp, plus intercooler and intake temps, like this: Keeping in mind ambient was about 5o at session 2, I'd say the oil temp is good. The coolant temp as OK but a big worry for hot days (it was getting to 110 back in Feb when it was 35o) so I need to keep addressing that. The water to air intercooler is working totally backwards where we get 5o air in the intake, squish/warm it in the turbos (unknown temp) then run it through the intercoolers which are say 65o max in this case, then the result is 20o air into the engine......the day was too atypical to draw a conclusion on that I think, in the united states of freedom they do a lot of upsizing the intercooler and heat exchanger cores to get those temps down but they were OK this time. The other interesting (but not concerning) part for me was the turbo speed vs boost graph: I circled an example from the main straight. With the tune boost peaks at around 18psi but it deliberately drops to about 14psi at redline because the turbos are tiny - they choke at high revs and just create more heat than power if you run them hard all the way. But you can also see the turbo speed at the same time; it raises from about 180,000rpm to 210,000rpm which the boost falls....imagine the turbine speed if they held 18psi to redline. The wastegates are electrically controlled so there is a heap of logic about boost target, actual boost, delta etc etc but it all seems to work well
    • hahah when youtube subscribers are faster than my updates here. Yes some vid from the day is up, here:  Note that as with all track day videos it is boring watching after the bloopers at the start.  The off was a genuine surprise to me, I've literally done a thousand laps around the place and I've never had instability there; basically it rolled into oversteer, slipped, gripped and spat me out. On the way off I mowed down one of the instructor's cones and it sat there all day looking at me with accusing cone eyes as I drove past. 1:13:20 was my fastest lap, and it was in the second session, 3rd lap.  It (or me!) got slower throughout the day as it got hotter.      
    • It sounds like you want what the Toyota Landcruisers have for their roof racks. Wanna know what you end up with? Rust holes in the roof, and water everywhere...
    • Discovered today that if I select reverse first and take my foot off the brake, then select drive, the drive indicator light works and so does the tiptronic gear indicator. 
    • Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is maybe 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Does anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys
