I was at gavin's today and noticed the phone was off the hook lol

getting my fuel pump upgraded next week and hes also putting my alloy bushes on :)

I was going to say that but I didn't want to. Its' very hard for them to do work plus run back in to answer the phone. So they just take it off the hook :(

Manda even does it sometimes if shes trying to do something important.

hey ska, what u been doing? i fitted my stealth wing today. I only used sikaflex as what people recommended me and i didnt think it was gonna stick but man this thing wont budge hhahaha.

nismogirl its a whole ecu on its own. Its plug and play into the existing loom like the power fc which is great. So ill be ditching the safc which wasnt doing much anyway as it pulled my timing out and made my car misfire when boosted.

Then it sounds like another trip to willowbank heh

Hey MJ nothing much bumming round at work in and out of meeting after meeting today :) So what exactly does an safc do or what is it for? (I do realise that is a really noob question, but have had it explained serval times, still a bit confused......noob)

ska the safc is a air/fuel piggyback computer. It allows you to adjust the amount of air or fuel you want to put into the car. Nissan tend to make their ecu's a bit rich and when combined with a few mods the safc is needed to lean out the mixture to get a better air/fuel ratio.

This makes the car run better and give you more power and perhaps a little bit better fuel economy. Except that i dont have any form of timing control and when the safc gets leaned out the car will misfire due to the timing. So thats why i want to get a full ecu as this one is very limited in what it can do where as a wolf3d does everything :)

    • 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
    • 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.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
