as if a grad can negotiate salary.. your one of thousands in most cases be grateful when your worth something you'll get a rise :)

exactly what I'd expect of a grad position - everyone starts on the same level with the same amount of experience

that sounds like absolute boners!

I was thinking to myself the other day 'damn why has no one stuffed a 4.8 litre Patrol motor into an import'. How much was one of those motors worth, and how were you able to buy it by itself brand new and without owning a new patrol1?

w00t... got an email from hallam nissan sayin the VK56VD is ready for pickup...

muhahahahaha

5.6L V8 out of the new patrol. going into the s14.

that was my tax return.

Fucking hell!

With about 560 N·m of torque and about 300kW's from factory in a S14 which weighs probably about just over 1 tonne if not less if you strip it...

You'd ass rape just about every car on the street with that!

How much it set you back?

ebc, go a gizzmo cheap and works a treat

trying to come up with a failsafe for my water/meth. The system has a trigger wire, either ground or 5v. Want it to trigger a boost controller so it switches to low boost/wastegate boost. If you turn off an ebc during boost does it revert to wastegate pressure or stay at the pressure whilst it was on.

one of the guys at hallam nissan parts owes me a few favours, so he hooked me up. ordered it on the workshop's trade account.

to be honest i didn't think i'd get one till the end of the year, so dunno how he managed to get one already. maybe its one of the ones out of the test cars they're trialling now. no idea what price it is, i just told him to get me one asap lol.

nowhere near ready to spend money on the track car yet, so might hold off on it... at least until i figure out how i'm gonna run the engine etc. we've done an LS1 swap into an S13 and a VH swap into an r32, so VK into s14 should be fun.

If my calculations are right it should sit between and behind the strut towers, which means all the weight of the car will be between the wheelbase.

    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
