Chicks with hot cars, what's not to love?

Maybe NOT hot chicks with nice cars?

doesnt matter how nice the car is, doesnt change how hot the actual chick is.

Am I getting smarter or is she... I think you know the rest.

Why even bother asking for advice?

It's obvious your team of "professionals" can help you lighten your wallet.

If you want I'll do the work on your car - we'll start with an RB20DE head add a 30 bottom end and a T88 - using the standard computer we should make about 1,200 rwkw, easy should need a full rebuild maybe just a degreasing...

The standard RB20 gearbox and clutch should hold up for a minute or two, so don't worry too much about that we can always add a shortshifter.

Just deposit the $$ in my account and it should be done by 5pm. Trust me I say I'm a professional.

Wouldn't the whole 30psi on C16 fuel thing to get 500rwkw really negate the car as a viable streeter? I can only imagine the lag lol.

You should probably talk more to a reputable engine builder and state that you want 500rwkw etc (im hoping it's not the same one who supported you getting a supercharger lol), they should be able to give you a ballpark quote, I imagine it will be insanely expensive too.

IIRC the T51R is $2600 as a bare turbo in the Garrett version or about $4000 for the HKS version through Nengun.

Spot on. Lag monster! lol. If it's only going between the dyno and the car hole then I guess it doesn't matter. I bet that's not exactly the case though.

LOL... gold, can I get in on that?

Id say most likely not, shes probably changed her mind again.

I used to know a girl like this, good thing I got the f**k outta there. Now shes in deep depression, failed uni, dropped out and trying to do all sorts of bad things to herself to get attention LOL.

Life's test = FAIL.

Well she does ask for advice but then bangs on about her engine builder and mechanic say this and that etc etc etc. While a forum may not be the be all and end all of advice, surely looking at examples of what other people have done to reach that sort of power figure must be indicative of the work/money involved.

The other thing is I don't like the idea of someone going from a N/A to 500RWKW :S

My son of rajab. What a pack of sexist assholes you guys are. :)

She asked for advice, and you guys got personal and made sexist comments. Half of you didn't even read the first post I'm sure, you just joined the posse and started being abusive ... you're all my heros :P

Enough said.

I'm with you here man.

I've been monitoring this from post one and I'm surprised to see the comments go this far. I don't know whether the Mod is on holiday or not but if people were sandbagging an ethnic group or a religious faction, this would have come to a halt pretty damn quick.

It's getting as bad as NissanSilvia.com with their flaming and abusive tendencies towards newbies asking first time questions. They think they're better than others because they have a bit of experience.

Guys, so what if she's going to be making a big financial mistake. It's her money and if she loses a shitload, then it's her fault for not taking the advice of the knowledgeable people giving it.

I'm sure there's a few who have gone the wrong way with a modification and paid the price for the direction that they took, but you learn from that mistake, pick yourself up and stride forward.

If a guy was to do the same thing and asked for advice I'm sure that the pathetic remarks made by some in this thread would not have come to bear.

You're no better than some bigot calling an Asian a gook and there are many of them on this site, go ahead and try, see how far that comment gets you.

I pity the girl. This is not the sort of message we should be sending out in this day and age.

You can shoot me down for making my comments, but in the end I know I'm a better person for accepting the girl for a human being, not as my own personal dart board.

we aren't being sexist in this thread (alright i may have been slightly, but i was more being analytical as to why some girls do things like this. some guys do similar things for similar reasons though). we aren't picking on her because she is a girl, we are picking on her because she is stupid. here is a very simple explaination of this thread:

missr34: can people please help? what do you think of this?

sau members: *offer help*

missr34: i don't want/need any help. i'm doing it my way and i will only listen to my tuners so you can all get stuffed

sau members (including some women): *begin flame war

select few members who know her and want to get in her pants or have to stick up for anyone and incorrectly spot racism/sexism from 300m: leave her alone and stop being sexist

lolin @ internet white knights ITT.

It sounds more to me like a bunch of dudes trying to take this woman for a ride because she is a woman (and don't bullshit around here, mechanics and car dealers do this ALL the time), us trying to give helpful advice and then being told we're sexist for it!!!

Most of the replies were seriously trying to help this girl out, though tbh, if chick's didnt want the attention, they wouldn't have a username like miss r34 which makes it bleedingly obvious to all and sundry that they are women.

ps there are no women on the internet. fact.

Oh and one other thing, it's not like shes researched anything thoroughly in the first place i mean come on, a N/A R34 and a T51R?! 500rwkw!? Of course that is going to garner criticism, especially when the overwhelming response of DONT DO IT ITS FOLLY is ignored.

    • Update 3: Hi all It's been a while. Quite a lot of things happened in the meantime, among other things the car is (almost) back together and ready to be started again. Things that I fixed or changed: Full turbo removal, fitting back the OEM turbo oil hardlines. Had to do quite a bit of research and parts shopping to get every last piece that I need and make it work with the GT2860 turbos, but it does work and is not hard to do. Proves that the previous owner(s) just did not want to. While I was there I set the preload for the wastegates to 0,9bar to hopefully make it easier for the tuner to hit the 370hp I need for the legal inspections that will follow later on. Boost can always go up if necessary. Fitted a AN10 line from the catch can to the intake hose to make the catchcan and hopefully the cam covers a slight vacuum to have less restrictive oil returns from the head and not have mud build up as harshly in the lines and catch can. Removed the entire front interior just shy of the dashboard itself to clean up some of the absolutely horrendous wiring, (hopefully) fix the bumpy tacho and put in LED bulbs while I was there. Also put in bulbs where there was none before, like the airbag one. I also used that chance to remove the LED rpm gauge on the steering column, which was also wired in absolute horror show fashion. Moved the 4in1 Prosport gauge from sitting in front of the OEM oil pressure gauge to the center console vents, I used a 3D printed vent piece to hold that gauge there. The HKB steering wheel boss was likely on incorrectly as I sometimes noticed the indicator reset being uneven for left vs. right. In the meantime also installed an airbag delete resistor, as one should. Installed Cube Speed premium short shifter. Feels pretty nice, hope it'll work great too when I actually get to drive. Also put on a fancy Dragon Ball shift knob, cause why not. My buddy was kind enough to weld the rust hole in the back, it was basically rusted through in the lowermost corner of the passenger side trunk area where the wheel arch, trunk panel and rear quarter all meet. Obviously there is still a lot of crustiness in various areas but as long as it's not rusted out I'll just treat and isolate the corrosion and pretend it's not there. Also had to put down a new ground wire for the rear subframe as the original one was BARELY there. Probably a bit controversial depending on who you ask about this... but I ended up just covering the crack in the side of the engine block, the one above the oil feed, with JB Weld. I used a generous amount and roughed up the whole area with a Dremel before, so I hope this will hold the coolant where it should be for the foreseeable future. Did a cam cover gasket job as the half moons were a bit leaky, and there too one could see the people who worked on this car before me were absolute tools. The same half moons were probably used like 3 times without even cleaning the old RTV off. Dremeled out the inside of the flange where the turbine housing mates onto the exhaust manifolds so the diameter matches, as the OEM exhaust manifolds are even narrower than the turbine housings as we all know. Even if this doesn't do much, I had them out anyways, so can't harm. Ideally one would port-match both the turbo and the manifold to the gasket size but I really didn't feel up to disassembling the turbine housings. Wrapped turbo outlet dumps in heat wrap band. Will do the frontpipe again as well as now the oil leak which promted me to tear apart half the engine in the first place is hopefully fixed. Fitted an ATI super damper to get rid of the worn old harmonic balancer. Surely one of the easiest and most worth to do mods. But torquing that ARP bolt to spec was a bitch without being able to lock the flywheel. Did some minor adjustments in the ECU tables to change some things I didn't like, like the launch control that was ALWAYS active. Treated rusty spots and surface corrosion on places I could get to and on many spots under the car, not pretty or ideal but good enough for now. Removed the N1 rear spats and the carbon surrounding for the tailpipe to put them back on with new adhesive as the old one was lifting in many spots, not pretty. Took out the passenger rear lamp housing... what do you know. Amateur work screwed me again here as they were glued in hard and removing it took a lot of force, so I broke one of the housing bolts off. And when removing the adhesive from the chassis the paint came right off too. Thankfully all the damaged area won't be visible later, but whoever did the very limited bodywork on this car needs to have their limbs chopped off piece by piece.   Quite a list if I do say so myself, but a lot of time was spent just discovering new shit that is wrong with the car and finding a solution or parts to fix it. My last problem that I now have the headache of dealing with is that the exhaust studs on the turbo outlets are M10x1.25 threaded, but the previous owner already put on regular M10 nuts so the threads are... weird. I only found this out the hard way. So now I will just try if I can in any way fit the front pipe regardless, if not I'll have to redo the studs with the turbos installed. Lesson learned for the future: Redo ALL studs you put your hands on, especially if they are old and the previous owners were inept maniacs. Thanks for reading if you did, will update when the engine runs again. Hope nothing breaks or leaks and I can do a test drive.
    • No those pads are DBA too  but they have colors too. I look at the and imo the green "street" are the best.
    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
