Whats the difference? I always thought airbox are something you used to cover the pod filters which sorta affect flow but will keep the cops away. Or are the pod filters a replacement of airbox...?

Standard airbox's are black plastic things which have a panel filter inside.

ARC airbox's which Nismoman is talking about are alloy and bigger capacity and have an arc panel filter inside.

airboxes dont flow anyless then a pod filter really unless you have the air flow blocked off, but then your a nob.

People put boxes around pods to premote cooler air intake, so blocking off the engine back from the air filter...works a treat.

oh and maybe get your injectors cleaned, maybe that will help.

I am still running stock rb25 injectors for 280rwkw.

Edit: But I do have a fuel reg, and big fuel pump.

Yea I already know that. In fact so long as you've got the money, everything is easy. I dont think you'll be saying that if you've gotta pay 3k a month for homeloan.

You can tell me to bugger off, but out of interest who are you paying $750pw to and what are the loan terms and how much was it? (PM)

That’s a pretty serious repayment… (currently wearing his Real Estate agent hat). One of my old brokers did some magic things with numbers, but not everyone is suitable to refinance..

whores lol.

Agree with pretty much everything Nismo has said lol. Making power with a gtr is easy but it costs money so man up and buy the gear lol.

You man up and buy some gear :blush:

You've got PM. But basically 3k is including extra repayment and I like to have 3 months salary in the bank just for emergency. So as much as I like to spend those money, I wouldnt.

Very nice. Yea just got it tuned last week so I'll probably fault find and see if I can find out where is restricting the boost.

Would love to earn 3k a month in the first place :blush: But I get ya, more important things than the car to spend money on :)

You man up and buy some gear :(

I'm a pussy. I will gladly have pinkies raised at me. But everything I earn gets put into the car, I just don't earn enough to buy anything really cool :blink:

Yes I do alot of work for shit pay in the hope that when I finish uni they will remember all the shit I've done for them and reward me accordingly. I should be able to skip a couple of pay grades because I've started so early.

I haven't had a pay rise since Jan 2008 so I'm f**kin due one. flamin mongrels.

@thristan, i think shan has merged all your old posts into astrothristan2, but it hasn't updated your post count

i asked to have my joined date set at 14th april 2002 (when sau started) but i didnt get a reply

laaaaaaaaaaaaaaame!

we can't all be mega-rice house salesmen :blush:

I haven’t been a sleazy house sales-boy in years! Dabbled in property management and Business Development for the salary security.

I change jobs as often as I change cars haha!! If only you knew what has crossed my mind this time (job wise).

I'm pretty sure you will be and the other advantage is I find Aussies in general value experience and relationship more than anything else. So you'll probably end up being offered a job there (save you the trouble of looking for a job at this kinda economic situation).

They hardly increase vac student's pay anyway or at least I know my company doesnt. When are you graduatiing? My company's looking for grads if you're interested.

    • Was there ever a model of the Stagea m35 that didnt have a badge on the grill? I thought I saw that somewhere, some aero edition or something? I cant find it again? davemoto
    • Its a 2002 vr-x four VQ25DET, silver. Coil overs, lowered, polished alloys and sport exhaust. Bit of a project, was sitting in a shed for a while but runs and drives great.
    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
