Your stag looked f'n hot Mike. Couldn't stop drooling over those rims. I got some pics too of your stag. I'll post them up tomorrow. Good to see another stag there. You going to Extreme?

Looks amazing, Mike. You've done an excellent job with detailing it, it looks super-clean!

The pearl white looks like it has a grey mixed into it, but I'm guessing that's due to the reflections from the surroundings, right?

to be honest, it was just a quick job at big bucket to wash it on the way there and some tyre shine at the event (we were late entries, handed in the forms on the day)

i put the glossiness down to the fresh(ish) paint, was resprayed in z-tune silver in japan

I was around mostly in the arvos on both days. I almost came in with my tools and jack to take your rims! :)

Nothing fancy under the bonnet atm. Put stock air box back in ... but I am going to get AM Performance to do some piping for me, as I want to put the Neo cover back on. I'll also be getting some chroming done under there too :D Just a matter of $$$

I've got my forms for Extreme, but not lodged yet. Tinkering with the idea of entering my Brutale or Stagea ... or both! I hope to have a respray on the Stagea by then. Mate of mine is loaning me his booth and equipment.

You coming to this cruise on sunday?

Both cars look awesome. Good to see some stageas representing. See you got your turn signal door mirrors Mike. One of these days i hope to see a GTR front conversion at one of these Autosalons. Daniel (260rsstagea) was entered at the Perth show, clean car and killer stereo install.

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      By JC71 · Posted

      forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k.

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      By JC71 · Posted

      neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock.

      Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
