What would it mean if a car was spitting and splitting and losing power.

On idle, it's dropping revs and almost stalling.

I checked the leads and they looked ok, but I don't gave a tool to get my plugs out it seemed to have gone walk abouts.

Checked and tighten everything I could. It's a charade btw

Can that....looks like it survived the ordeal.

I suppose you could give it a razor and it could put itself out :P

It even took the pics of your car Cara!! :)

bahahahahahahaha thats well put Pete! nice one!

but the EMU lol had to be killed, i thought it was already dead but it must have just been knocked out, my mate Dale, who lives in Renmark came to my rescue, and he unfortunatley had to kill it, i didnt see it move, but he said it nealry caused a 5 car pile up because it was trying to get on the road and a L plater slammed on the brakes and 4 cars behind him and swerve to miss him....

but on a serious note she will be picked up by my crash repairer tomorow, i was able to get in contact with him yesterday........id hate to know what a new front guard is gonna cost from nissan, i already know the headlight will cost $1800.......

if there are a fair few scratches on my door window does anyone know if they will replace that too?

Scartchs just mean they will sand back and repaint, dents that cannot be removed will mean it is to be replaced

I just love it when I organise someone to come pick the silvia up, spent the better part of this whole week negotiating prices etc, and then I'm told he will be coming last night, changes it to today and Midday, and now his phone is off.......

Its a shame because he looks to be a pretty active SAU user, not just some no name person that seen my FS thread..

FFS!!

running your gt3076 with the .7 compressor housing on your low mount manifold might have clearance problems with your engine mount

when i mounted my gt35 on my 6boost low mount manifold i had to have the engine mount machined down a bit to make it clear

Adrian as i said above^^^^^

I WARNED YOU THAT IT WILL HAVE CLEARANCE PROBLEMS!!!!!!!!!!!

I just left a thing on your FB but I'll post here,

Ummm, every now and then my car will drop idle and bounce round for a few seconds and then idle and drive fine, then other times i'll be cruising at whatever speed/RPM and it'll do the same similar thing just drop like all power etc for a few seconds and then act and drive fine.

In my old VLCT, I experianced the same thing with my RB30ET... Could be AFM's too :\

Hmmm... odd problem indeed. If I were you I'd borrow someone else's CAS to try it out first, no point buying one only to find that wasn't the problem to begin with. Besides Nissan will charge you through the ass for one me thinks. I can get you a price if you really want

    • It's funny, as Ive seen plenty of people use them in cheap builds on YT. And they actually go okay, even though a lot of other maxspeedingrods stuff is terrible. Those turbos seem reliable enough, the only part being, a good quality turbo that is "identical" to it, will out perform it day in and day out. In both a lower boost threshold, and the ability to flow more air at the same boost pressure. As a cheap cheap replacement, not a terrible choice. For cheap and shouldn't blow in a day, not terrible (like other eBay/Temu turbos) for low cost and still decent performance, that's where the question comes in to play from the results I've seen. I'd actually find it hilarious to buy one, and strap it to a paddock basher or some other cheap as POS originally NA car, and send it to the moon!
    • The maxpeedingrods turbo is cheap and bolts on to stock parts. I think you just need a bigger silicone coupler for the intake. Its a cheap china turbo, but it's been running on mine for almost 3 years at 16-19 psi.
    • What do they look like right after you've tried to start it with everything connected? Also post photos of what they actually look like.
    • Also wanted to say, my new spark plugs are blackened looks like it's very rich. I have splitfire coilpacks but stock coilpack loom and ignitor. I tried directly grounding the ignitor ground to body as well.
