Just an update, I have had some pm's etc... so here goes...

I have moved on again, put my car in another shipping container and now living in Abu Dhabi in UAE, its 1 hour drive from Dubai.

I got a job at a workshop here and have been tuning some interesting monsters... All kinds of cars, they LOVE Nissan Patrol's and Toyota Land Cruisers with GT45s GT47 GT55... T04z and GT35r's are labled "small" for these guys...

I came here last month for 3 weeks, kinda like a interview / test then went back to Georgia and packed up everything and moved back. Been back for about 5 days or so.

They have the best drag strip in the world here, and I am right inside all the action, I was doing tech inspection a couple of days ago on all the cars for the Exotic drag cars, far out they have some nice cars here...

Big BIG change, I guess Geogia was just a stepping stone for what is really to come in the future...

All i can say GT is WOW. Big money to be made in the Dubai Tuning scene. I have been following your work for years on here, learning allot as you have shared allot along the way. I will be waiting for a set of custom Georgian Pistons...

best of luck mate;

I have allot of respect for your risks and accomplishments.

Conquer the world with the Aus flag in your hand man!!!

Lovin it.

cheers man, we ditched the Forged pistons idea, it worked but we found a good source of pistons cheap and there was no need to make them anymore.

Here is a pic of a Nissan Patrol, GT47 :)

This is why the car was back in the workshop, the owner is a tuner here and he tunes alot of R35 GTR's and Nissan Patrol's etc etc he owns a nitto stroker r32gtr with 1200hp at wheels as well...

If you win this competition, the one i went on NYE you win a Brand New Toyota FJ Land Cruiser ! big money up for grabs! hence the pro mod engines in the cars, there are 2 classes, 6cyl and 8cyl. the 6 cyl's have up to 1800hp !!

Winner of the 6 cyl was a V6 Buick and cannot remember what car won the V8 class. Its a very very big sand hill, 52deg up hill, it was amazing everyone brings their turbo buggys and banshee's and raptors and even LSX powered buggys and cruises around.. these guys here really know how to live it up and have some fun with all kinds of toys!

ohhh wow the thread is sticky now! cool :) I will have to post up some stuff

    • Shouldn't need a "base map" for anything other than guidance to ignition tuning. You just need the engine capacity right, the injector size right, and something, almost anything, for a VE map. On an NA engine, fuelling is almost completely a function of load signal & rpm. It should run and drive with a completely flat fuel map. It will be too lean under load, but that's easily fixed. We used to tune all ECUs without any base map. There were no such things (until someone had tuned a near stock engine on one, and then they had a "base map".
    • What did you actually buy/how much did it cost? When I got mine in like.. 2017...? 2019? the aim was to run Torque for gauges via ODB2 and things like Track Addict/Laptimers/Dashcam/Reversecam/Spotify etc. Mine never broke, but I wonder if you've got the same needs (it sounds like it). Cause I liked the idea of being able to do anything with it. That said, yours also cost 3x the cost of what I spent so... food for thought.  
    • For me there is a massive difference in manufacturer or big brand crippled android (Sony, Kenwood etc) vs the sort of thing I've installed here, which is basically just a tablet in DIN form factor with open Android, and the other model of course is mirroring - Android Auto/Carplay. I hate the locked down manufacturer and AA options where they decide what apps I'm allowed to install, including the Launcher but also importantly things like Ecutek (for this car) or Real Dash (Stagea) are not supported. Plus those crippled versions tend to be slower due to both overheads and lower spec hardware. On the other hand, when this breaks I'll likely be in trouble for support....but how is that different to owning an Infiniti anyway
    • Yeah, Duncan is helping sell me back to Android devices. I've hated the whole Android head units due to their speed issues. Even in my old Hyundai Kona (2022 model), it behind the scenes was Android, and slow and shitty to start up. Once running wasn't bad, but still a good 15 to 30 seconds.
    • My roof rails are off atm on the E39 until the rust is fixed. I did find another little bit of surface rust under the rails when I took them off. As @soviet_merlin said I'd just leave them alone unless you're planning on ensuring they're properly sealed. I was on the fence about leaving them off as the delete is still a thing in BMW E39's but I feel like the car is missing something (er, it is, der) with them off and I'm looking forward to putting them back on.
