Its the OLNY ONE I GOT I AM GONNA FRAME IT BUDDY!!!

So what is wrong with your BOV?

nothing....I just don't like to attract attention, and I have been reading that they actually hinder performance unless you have a highly modified engine

Sup?

Just got back from yet another Venture to Brisbane..

I wanna take back everything I said about Aresspeed, If ound out they wernt at fault .. it turns out it was soem little ****ing shit that works there that was ripping off the business. I belive he owns 'onboost' or something .. he was scared he was going to loose his job and i susesed out he was rippping off Aresspeed.

Oh well such shit if you loose your job kid.. should think twice before attempting to **** around me and the ocmpany you work for.

On the topic of shit businesses.. i have a bone to pic with Gavin woods, I have addressed this problem and he keeps thrrowing excusese at me as if im some dumb****.. let me tell you about it, and look from a nuetral position and tell me what you think...

U booked my car to be seviced by Gavin, he did so and told me he check all the tyres and the headlights bla bla ... 2 days later I find a near flat tyre and one headlight not working, I put the flat tyre down to my rough driving.. and gave him the benefit of the doubt..

I then took the car back about 2 weeks later saying, something is up with my headlight, you said it was fine but 2 days later it wasnt working and i cant figure out why, can you look at it

he then proceeded to charge me when i came back and informs me my hi/low beam needs to be replaced and i should by a brand new one ($200) .. i made sure it was the hi/lo stalk and right or wrong he said hes checked everying its the hi/lo beam .. thats exactly what it is..

I chose to get back to him on buying a brand new part as $200 was a bit rich, and he told me not to goto a wreckes as i need a brand new part, i think came across one of these switches for $50 so i thaught i would try it out to see if it was the hi/lo switch like he said .. i puleld apart my steerign column and installed the new one .. and guess what .. no difference. after a few hours of thinking i decided i couldnt find the problem.

i then decided to check the headlights ..a nd after all this team i discover it was a blown globe.

no my beef is, Gavin is 'apparently' the god of skyline mechanics as you will have all read the thread abotu how good his work shop is.

Yet such a professional guy that knows everythign about skylines gave me false information..

he told me he had checked everythign and the problem was the hi/lo switch .. nothing else THAT was the exact problem...

yet after all that money and shit it turns out it was a simple blown globe.

my question is .. if he is so good, how can he not tell the difference between a perfectly working switch and a blown globe.

got me puzzeled?

    • HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob 
    • Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?
    • So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit? 
    • Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
    • I'm a fan of the JZX110, and the Aristo. Big cruiser cars, and with the factory cars, super comfortable and feel like you're driving an armchair! And the JZ motors are a pretty nice engine too, especially with some basic mods.   The import process, and the need to be able to trust people, and the fact there's so many scammers around is what ever puts me off wanting to go through that ordeal!
