Hi All,

Just looking for some help - engine is an RB25DET Series II...

I noticed tonight that when I open the throttle I get a click like a blown fuse from this thing...

Problem is I don't know what it is or what it does. It is situated at the front of the engine on the intake side right next to the thermostat.

Hoping you can shed some light here are the pics: Anybody know about it?

Thanks,

Or I could have been wondering why there was a plug that was not connected and why the car was not feeling normal.... Its pretty damn obvious when your under the bonnet and pull the throttle cable...

Got news for you lachlnw - this is a forum - believe it or not people use it to learn, others not naming names use it to express to the rest of us how much of a knob they are

I'll let the people decide which category you fall into.

jesus christ you need to get a girl friend . or a new one that you dont avoid enough to find stuff like this . seriously what were you trying to do when you discovered this?

Young people of today :laugh:

I Guess then, if youd mentioned the plug wasnt connected and the car wasnt running right in the OP, then people wouldnt have jumped on you about not worrying about it :worship:

Dont worry though, SAU is well known for the veteran members flaming the crap out of people all the time, you arent the 1st and wont be the last!

Just Chin up and ignore it. :(

    • I don't. I mean, mine's not a GTR, but it is a 32 with a lot of GTR stuff on it. But regardless, I typically buy from local suppliers. Getting stuff from Japan is seldom worth the pain. Buying from RHDJapan usually ends up in the final total of your basket being about double what you thought it would be, after all the bullshit fees and such are added on.
    • The hydrocarbon component of E10 can be shittier, and is in fact, shittier, than that used in normal 91RON fuel. That's because the octane boost provided by the ethanol allows them to use stuff that doesn't make the grade without the help. The 1c/L saving typically available on E10 is going to be massively overridden by the increased consumption caused by the ethanol and the crappier HC (ie the HCs will be less dense, meaning that there will definitely be less energy per unit volume than for more dense HCs). That is one of the reasons why P98 will return better fuel consumption than 91 does, even with the ignition timing completely fixed. There is more energy per unit volume because the HCs used in 98 are higher density than in the lawnmower fuel.
    • No, I'd suggest that that is the checklist for pneumatic/hydraulic adjustable systems. I would say, based on my years of reading and complying with Australian Standards and similar regulations, that the narrow interpretation of Clause 3.2 b would be the preferred/expected/intended one, by the author, and those using the standard. Wishful thinking need not apply.
    • Yes they do. For some maybe. But for those used the most by abusers, ie Skylines, the numbers are known. The stock eyebrow height for R32/3 Skylines is about 365/375mm or thereabouts. The minimum such heights are recorded in adjacent columns in the database.
    • Hmmm, interesting. Makes me wonder whether there is bias as well. It's the cheapest fuel, so it is used for all kinds of ill-maintained shitboxes which are bound to have issues regardless. Nicer cars tend to require higher octane rated fuel and can't use it anyway. FWIW, the official NSW E10 facts page is decent.
