ok, atm I have my car.

the front bar is on, but ****ed after i let my friend drive it, and he didnt know how to enter driveways...

Im also looking for a trust airpod and attachment and a nice fmic set up.

but i need insurance, beacuse I dont want to lose my car, I'm 21 had 8 speeding tickets in the last 6 years, and had my license suspensed once(the new rule).

I'm just wondering wheres the best places to go and whats the best value for money. like I dont want chrome pipes for my fmic, i'd rather black, but a chrome fmic.

my drivers door window motor is now ****ed from going up and down too much, so i'll have to replace that also.

and b4 i got my car service my car did 80 in first and then 135 in second, now it only goes to 60-65 and then seems like its trying to get more air. and in second only gets to 100. this is good for me, but I would rather a car taht works properly then not.

basically im bored sitting at home, and would rahter spend money on my car :D

thats at stock psi also, I dont know what happened and chaos has seen my car go :D

so I'm trying to think what could have happened, can you reduce the turbo psi from stock to lower? or can new spark plugs do something?

my car has a rev limiter of 7000 but not speed limited(this is good so I cant over rev.)

so, maybe i need to get it tuned or something. dad doesnt want to help, he believes my car goes fast enough as it is, and that he doesnt want me to loose my license again...

greg have u tried taking the airbox off?? maybe thats why it seems its trying to suck more air in cause i noticed last time u had one on.

insurance....well with ur history you will struggle to get it.

I'd say go with a 400R front bar or garage ***ui or something like that (NA_R33 has one) and this have a large section in the front for a front mount.

nah new clutch, once i bought it from autoshop the clutch was over trightened and they had burnt the **** outter it, i got a new one the next day, some dakin perforanmce clutch for 900 fitted, was quoted other places for $1200. the clutch is fine, the only problem i have is the air filter is stock and the sponge is shit its almost about to fall apart(some rips in it) so I'm going to either get a panel air filter, or waste some money on a pod and make some air box thingy :D

at the service, i got new plugs, the mud outta the radirator(this didnt make the car heat up at all for some reason :D and new oils and shit like that. I run my car only on ulimate, I would get racq to tow me to a bp if i ran out of fuel in front of a shell :D

i check the water and oil regualy and would rather be saef then sorry. I also have to find somewhere that will lathe back my disc, or maybe buy some slotted ones :D

and imm thinking of getting my license back for night work, because i make 300 more a week doing nights. I THINK i could drive to and from work properly and that I will slow down on the open roads. speed kills those that dont look in their mirrors...

Bwahahahaha! Funny. I'm a BP only man too.

I got my front discs machined at Global down here on the coast. Removed them myself, drove there in my shitter, had lunch, went back, all done, $30. Still want DBA rotors tho...

Slowing down in a Skyline is a figment of your imagination... :D

And aint that the truth...

    • Took a little trip  went to nismo hoping the get my fuel tank hoses and unfortunately they told me they didn’t have stock luckily I was able to go to a Nissan parts store and they were able to order them in for me  then can home and cleaned the tank with some degreaser and fitted the new hoses before putting it back in the car 
    • 100% I’ll hack into the 33. Strap a turbo onto the RB25DE and/or put the 25 head on a 30 block. 33 passed in cos the reserve was too high. I’ll try lowballing it again and negotiate. Aim is to have it landed and on the road for under 15k, then spend the same amount on top in mods.
    • It's generally best practise to run 1x run without VCT enabled, then 1x run enabled till redline. Overlay the two torque graphs and you'll find the desired RPM to turn off VCT. Sometimes, it might be even worthwhile turning off VCT earlier control torque/cylinder pressure and using VCT purely to spool the turbo.
    • They sell them in Malaysia for about $4
    • First time I ever have issues with Amazon, but my wife often tells me to keep an eye out for fakes. It finally got me. I wrapped up the conversation with Gates. The gentlemen I was talking to seemed to hate his job but the response time on their technical support is outstanding. He stated that the hose is marked with some variation of "SAE J30R10" but that if you only purchase a 1 foot length like I did, it is possible to get a cut between markings and have a blank hose. To no ones surprise, he stated the swelling and "gummyness" isn't normal and to replace/buy from somewhere else (He mentioned NAPA). I'll toss a small end of the new one in gas for a few days before pulling the hanger out again, just to be safe.  Hose should arrive Monday. For those running multiple pump in tank hangers, you know the joys of getting them out and back in. I'm surprised I haven't destroyed my level float yet.  Lastly once I wrap all of this up, I'm planning on hitting the dyno again in 2 weeks while I'm on vacation. I realized recently that my VCT is set to turn off at 5000RPM. I'm surprised it wasn't increased while I was on the dyno last. I'm expecting I can increase it to ~6500RPM, if not more. Should hopefully get another 15-20kw out of it. I also want him to revisit my knock thresholds. I'm occasionally getting false knock around 3000rpm.
