Just finished washing the mini and the skyline just so I could spend most of the time standing under the hose. Was good while it lasted, might be a bit of a storm coming though, that might cool it down a bit. Time for another cold shower I think.

Was just at Dicky Beach, Lifeguards came over the loud speaker "theres a severe storm warning" everybody leaves likes a cyclones about to hit!

10 mins later, the same warning but with "hail warning", oh shit me grabs the missus and runs to the line and an awaitng vacant garage.

90 minutes later, not a drop... Ahhhh!

Yep computers don't like heat.

The large amount of suposedly faulty computers I have seen in the last few days, have been from people trying to use them in an un-airconditioned offices or at home in temperatures close to fifty degrees (90 degrees inside the tower) and then wondering why their computer was shutting down by itself.

Heat is the mortal enemy of all electrical equipment.

My computer ran all weekend constantly ..... What a machine :D

My car on the other hand did 800k's so we could sit in the airconditioned comfort :D

*phew* lost this thread for a moment.. thought it might have been deleted :D

yeah, my computer is holding up.. my car too :D even better. Computers are cheap these days fortunately, and power supplies, etc can be replaced for a few bucks. Saturday i did 200km in 41 degree or so heat.. giving it quite a bit of stick with darrin and strutto on the highways. Still holds a bit of power. Go the intercooler!

    • Ok guys thank you very much. GCG highflow it is then 🙂 
    • 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. 
    • 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.
    • 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.
