Thanks. I reduced the price again I think that's where the renewed interest has come from.

Parting the Pulsar is going good so far; the coilovers, EDFC and the whole interior went last weekend. Most performance/cosmetic parts come off this weekend and I've received deposits for them. Engine and gearbox don't have buyers yet but I assume once they're out they'll be easier to sell. Then in a few weekends time an N/A engine and gearbox go in the car, I'll get a few bits painted and tidied up and I'll sell the whole working car as an N/A SR which should interest the younger market as it'll be a quick N/A car with nice paint, kit, etc. Easier to sell it this way.

Yeah, selling N/A car is easier these days, good to know it's going smoothly.

Yeah around there Grant, it creeps up a bit then settles back down to about 17 by redline (stupid split dump pipe)

Change the dump pipe or live with the boost creep?

You have EBC?

Question for Alex / Billy:

Have you got any pics of your exhaust like underneath? thinking about going dual tips a bit like you guys cos it looks bad ass from the Tuesday meet pics, and also the other reason is so I can lower it a bit more without this HKS thing almost hitting the ground it hangs so low. Any info would be good cheers :)

:cheers:

shouldn't have any clearance issues with 3" straight pipes

mine's also twin tip/blast pipes but after that its 3.5inch and has a mid muffler. hits the ground on most roads and bumpy freeways, been told by following motorists that it makes some pretty cool sparks though when it scrapes at night :cool:

Obviously :P But I very much doubt they would judging by the type of person they are. I have my fingers crossed. There's nothing wrong with the car, anyone who comes out to see it will realise that :)

Great, some q's for you.

What sort of degree do you have?

To make a edge out of competetiors (When lining up for job interviews), what additional degrees would be handy?

Typically, how many hours in TAFE/Uni do you attend?

I could ask TAFE/uni these sort of q but they'll just lie to get numbers so I'd better off ask someone who have go through it.

I have got a bachelor of business with a major in accounting with professional recognition.

The accounting degree Is all you will need to get a job. The only problem is that you have to start at the bottom and then after a couple years you can move into a higher paying position as a senior accoutant. If you manage to get a graduate position it would be awesome as it's normally with a big company that pays well to pretty much train you. Also if you do 2 more economic subjects you can actually have a dual degree majoring in accounting and finance which I'm sure will help with any banking positions

Hours at uni where typically:

Lectures 4 x 1.5-2 hour lectures a week

Tutorials 4 x 1.5-2 hours tires a week

To tell you the truth I barely went to any lectures

So you're basically hitting the books or there's some sort of virtual classes?

So no point in going to lectures?

And doesn't the degree take 4 years to complete?

BTW, you went to uni or TAFE?

I used to watch lectures online but go to the tutorials as that's where you actually learn things. It's a 3 year degree and its uni

Ah ok which uni did you go?

Planning to do it in next semester or next year. First thing first, ask around asking how they run their course fees etc.

And thanks for answering bunch of questions.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      Reading through the engine service manual their advice is do a cylinder balance test. Unplug one injector at a time and see if the idle drops a consistent RPM. You can also do this using a Consult cable which is easier. They also call for unplugging the power transistor, then with the engine off and the fuel rail unhooked from the manifold verifying that you have good fuel flow (even injection, no dripping/leaks, etc) when you twist the CAS by hand. Also verify the spark by pulling the spark plugs and allowing the plugs to ground and turning the CAS by hand. I would also start doing the sensor checks and idle valve checks in service manual. Make sure the MAF tests reasonably, the intake air regulator is sane, etc. You may have to get new spark plugs.

      This sounds very old of me, however since buying the Tiguan shit box, my view on shit boxes have changed.

      M35 Brake caliper replacement

      By Waders360 · Posted

      I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way

      Valve clearance for RB25det series 2

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.

      Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
