What up.

I should be here more, I'm a GTR fan that got lost and bought 3 Silvias

Hahaha. Welcome to the forums man :rofl: I noticed how much you liked GTR's on all the Ignition DVD's and always wondered why you didn't own one.

Castrol Edge is Group III base oil - it's never been full synth, unless they've changed something recently (which i highly doubt) They just threw lots of money at advertising (Fast and Furious, etc)

Mobil 1 (although some discussion on validity), Royal Purple and the Motul tested are definitely true synths. No idea bout Nulon but Castrol definitely isn't.

Something about advertising laws like complimentary medications must write 'may' in its description; in oils it must say 100% synthetic like on motul oil bottles, on castrol its 'full' dosent mean it aint a good oil though, just there are better ones for the price you pay.

Well, I'm sitting next to the Castrol Edge Australian marketing manager right now, and it is fully synthetic, except for 25W-50 as its designed for "big bore" street machines ( old school muscle). The other three 0W-40, 10W-60 and 5W-30 are fully synthetic.

Just thought Id clear that up

This quote is lol

and what was with the fan right up on the nulon test?

This test is complete BS and a pay off! I've encountered first-hand inside info proof of this, but had to promise anonymity in return.

All parties knew up front this would be debated, but didnt care, because as long as even a percentage of people who view this video arent sceptical and go ahead and buy nulon, then theyve succeeded - which was their aim. Believe what yous want, I too like the other man have nothing to gain from telling you this,but am telling the absolute truth! dont be a sucker!

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
