ill be in gemany in october hitting the cans next year

happy to back it into a wall for ya, some people say i f**k around..,. but i garrentee to do it propoerly!

What are you doing with the Plazaman plenum?

Would love to see if it makes a difference in low/mid response compared to my plenum, I dare say it will, but I'd love to know before I go changing the intake again...

No thanks...woudl rather continue to nurse my little bus along and maintain my record of not being a car breaker....just crasher :laugh:

If you don't:

Throw a leg out of bed.

Spin a bearing.

Smash a Gearbox

Leave a diff on the ground

Or Eject the axles from a car,

You're just not trying hard enough!

Well, just need ome velcro for Blitz gear and centre console is finished. Next weekend will be making a better means of mounting the data logger on the column....never liked my old bracket.

I am waiting for my injectors and thephenolic gasket to arrive before I throw the Plazmaman on. I may be doing it next weekend whcih will save me a quid rather then the mechanic doing it :laugh:

I think i bought it off ebay or online somewhere...cant remember. It has been laying around for along while until i got a harness to move the aircon controls

Wait, so where did the air con controls go?

Interesting... Very interesting...

I need to redo my centre console, and that looks f**kING ACE!

sorry to hijack Roy.

i can suply you with a pic of carbon sheet to do the job.

i made and installed a similar pice in bens gtst http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Be...html&st=380

So some more pics I took whilst working on the girl...So current work in progress

TE37s before stripping, 17 x 9.5" rears and 17 x 9" fronts. Were in white. I actually really liked them in white but loved my old satin black LMGT4s so...

Awaiting custome decal set

They were abolute pricks to rub back and prep, even after getting them acid dipped. Big thanks to Troy for doing a top job on the colour, satin black with grey pearl with matt clear...looks mega cool in person with the light on them. Shame once they are on the car brake dust will most likely hide their real colour

RB24 Gear

Well, been hoarding this gear for a while now, but have to either build the engine in the next few weeks, or sell it. Imminent work OS means tough decision needs to be made. Dotn want to really build a motor when the std one keeps on rocking....

And with the Tomei solid lifters and 260/10.25mm Procams I needed to upgrade the valve springs...so knowing nothing about engine building it was time for some more catalogue shopping...

And there is always those annoying jobs you wish you never started. After my fire at Winton all those years ago the wiring for my AiM data logger was damaged. It required a new MAP sensor, oil temp and pressure sensors and wiring....so rather then just simply install what was required i ripped it all out and decided second time round I could do a better job of wiring it in....and has since sat in its box with the new sensors and bits

    • Wife wanted basket things in the wardrobe in our temporary house. Thought about ripping our the wardrobe and fitting the entire IKEA set, but it's a temporary house and we want to move in a few years. So IKEA advertises this as a 50cm unit, however the actually basket and rails measure 46cm wide. Only issue was depth, IKEA stuff is quite deep, where as the builder special junk is super shallow at less than 40cm. Send it, chopped the rails, then offset the mounting holes, job done, happy wife, less shit scattered all over the bedroom. Did the same to the other side too. Also drove the Skyline shit box today, dropped off oil at Supercheap Auto. I didn't realise they only now take max 2x bottles per visit. I visited 2x Supercheap Autos.  
    • I've seen similar actually in my situation. You never know what tables are attempted to be used when the car thinks it's -99C or +200C. The fail state is not usually that extreme but you know what I mean - it was in my case though! This is where being able to read all the sensors is useful cause you see this stuff really quickly.
    • The above is very important. However as long as you keep timing relatively low, it's plausible to make your own knock ears and plausible to learn to tune with a modern ECU that can do wideband O2 correction like a boost controller. I mean if you only have one viable road to even drive the car on, learning to tinker to this level may be worth doing given you can't do much else with the car...?
    • I find the fact that the rear plate has to be bent inwards at the rear not so bad: but the front is just awful: It's like come on. (these are my very old, now retired/turned in plates) TBH it is a lot of money to fix a minor issue, the fact I said "I'll never really spend the money on doing this" is why people ended up buying them as a gift for a 'car guy' who can be hard to shop for.. for car guy things.
    • I just bent the ends of my premo plates. It even went through Regency like that after the engine conversion and the inspector (a great bloke!) just squinted his eyes and said "I didn't see that". Plates, and how they look, are just something that have zero importance to me.
