Jarrad, what side skirts are those? N1's?

And Wayne, as Damo said, chicks love the live read-outs. I bought a ECUtalk LCD read-out thingo purely for this reason. Not only do the chicks love my centre console gauges and love hearing me crap on about oil temperature, they also love reading vital information like fuel injector cycles. And water temps.

They love it.

I also indulge in explaining my torque metre in the dash.

But seriously, I hate it when chicks are like "z0mg you've got a Skyline... my ex ex ex ex bf owned one but it was like all square shaped." and you're like "but this... is a GTR... how can you compare that with a 31?" and they're like "but all Skylines are the same?"

I've only met a small handful of women who are like "Ah... GTR... 2 turbos then, eh?"

Reminds me of the time my girlfriend had a work drinks night at Marble Bar and some guy was talking to her. He's like "I drive a Skyline". So she replied "Oh which one?". He goes "An R31 Skyline". She follows up with a "Oh, the old shitty one? My boyfriend has a R32". He just walked away..

lol hence why they dropped the skyline part off the R35. getting your 160k+ car talked about like its a 2k old pos.

I always note what they say as to how much they know, if they know nothing about cars they call it a nissan, a lil they call it a skyline, and if they know what a gtr is theyll call it that or godzilla or something

n n1 sideskirts drop at the rear wheel in a lil point sorta of thing aside from that they pretty much flat like a stock gtr side skirt, take a look at the calsonic R32 that has em. least thats what i think the n1 sideskirt is

All I know is its a standard GTR kit. I don't have the rear pods, but I think they're a factory extra

The sideskits you have definately aren't standard GTR kit, theyre type M's. Front bar is, and the rear pods look stock too (like dan says, the n1 has a lip that drops down, however it does look bigger than my pods).

(I'd love to get a pair, anyone got a link as to how much they cost?)

This is what stock r32 gtr side skirts look like

The place on Hancock rd opposite St Agnes Shopping Centre, fark the name escapes me!

Cheers. I know the place you're talking about but I don't live that way anymore so I'm going to just stop past somewhere on the way home from work and see if they can fit me in.

      Looking for someone with a R34 front bar

      That looks good, but I think you're going to need much beefier side skirts now.

      Most women will agree that parking is the most taxing part of driving

      They are daft and there's a reason it never caught on. Steering feel? We don't need no stinking steering feel!

      new 1.5 LSD issues/concerns

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I gotta pull you up on this. It's driving me crazy. A shutter is something that closes, like over a window or in a cmera. The word you want is shudder. That LSD is clearly f**ked. Take it to a diff shop and get it disassembled and examined by an expert. YOu might have plates welded together or something equally crazy.

      S1 rb25/s14 starting problem

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Check the Nistune doco. There are a few assumptions being made here that might not be valid. I will list the things that occur to me: Base map. Base map for what? Base map for Z32? Then the cranking pulse width is probably wrong for an RB25. The extra 500cc of capacity might well be enough to prevent it from catching. Base map for RB25? I don't think you can load one of those into a Z32. You have to just make the settings correct for an RB25 in the Z32 base map. That is either K or the TIM to get the pulsewidth right. Loom. You bought a loom for an RB. And you plugged it into a Z32 ECU. Did you make sure that any iwre differences were swapped. From memory, there's at least a couple. And as per the others, I would suggest making sure that the fuel pressure is correct while cranking and that the injectors are actually flowing as expected. They really must come out and go on the bench, unless you do find that you have messed up as per above points. I would also suggest watching in Nistune to make sure that everything is reading correctly. That the correct binary flags are raised at the right time (like the crank signal), that there's no stupid values in K or TIM. That you have not got mismatched firmware for the ECU and/or a wrong image loaded.
