Sorry to silver R34 person who waved at me today on Athllon at the Thunderdome.... I did wave back, but at the last minute. I honestly didn't even see you till you'd already crossed in front of me cos I was in a bit of a daze! Had just gotten up and was running late for an appointment!

lol I thought you did wave back.

5hiv just now while I was walking the Doggie. Also his Bro's car earlier.

I Hope that Massive, Multi Street Burnout was Not you guys.

(think it was a V8 last night)

No not us. to be honest we dont know how to do a burnout and dont even want to know or try,

I would rather spend the money on some performance part then smoking tyers.

  • Blue R33 - heading towards Charnie at around 7:20am - I think it's teh Red P-plate one.
  • Mum was telling me she spotted a Red R35 GTR - Yes - my family are well aware of my hobby as they do not escape my GTR blabbering’s ! Haha so mum now can identify an R34 and an R35 (She is a bit rusty on 32's and 33's). Apparently it looked like mine but with a lower wing and 2 HUGE exhaust - I asked if it was like U.Pete's car (370z) but she said nah - it was a GTR. So I'm guessing it's the red R35 that's been going around lately.
  • Also spotted these fellows walking around Bryce's car, checking his wheels, exhaust and such out in the shopping Centre whilst Bryce steals my wheels. They were making awkward turbo noises :x
  • Also - spotted a black R32 GTR/GTT? - I saw some fellow looking at Rosie from a distance who I kinda recognised. it turned out he had a black R32 GTR/GTT? and saw him at Trojan the night before. No waves / nods.

Wot th!! .... I work hard driving around all day and keeping an eagle eye out for 'spotted' opportunities ....

Whilst Jeremy it seems is recruiting family members, i.e. his Mum to cruze the streets of the city and feed back spotted opportunities. I can't believe this, does she give 'waves' too? does she hold up a sign to the unsuspecting Line drivers saying something like ... 'Cop this wave coz I'm Jeremy's Mum' and then they wave back (coz everyone knows Jeremy), then Jeremy can claim a 'wave back' as well!!

I'm not entirely sure if this sort of action is within the intended protocols and guidelines when this thread was first created be Shell .... do we all now consider employing the services of recruitment agencies to identify potential 'SAU (ACT Thread) Spotters'?

Seriously, this is getting big!

    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
