I think that was a legitimate speed camera flash because it seemed to come from the other side of the intersection? Then again, I don't remember another flash and my car is in this photo :/

Speed camera flashes have traumatised me for life.

If that's your 32 Jamie, it dumps quite a bit of smoke when you're giving it stick!

:laugh:

Mr. Windsurf (Andrew) said the same thing... O2 Sensors might need changing again.

Does it use the O2 sensor when you're full throttle? Could be too thin an oil or worn piston rings / turbo seals. Can't remember if black smoke is oil or fuel burning.

whitey blueish smoke is oil...

black is rich fueling...afaik

btw, how bad is mine? I have never checked other then in rear view... just with the screamer I can't imagine it would be much better?

Yeah, Andrew said the same thing, black.

Must be running rich.

Adam, yours blows a fair bit under load, but every car will do something on full throttle...I don't remember noticing anything as much as I did Jamie's. Sounds like you do need a tune Jamie :)

Nar you'll have to Nistune or PowerFC for a dyno tune...but I meant "tuning" as in getting everything running right. You might actually have an underlying issue as to why it's running rich under load. On light throtle / cruising it's usually an O2 sensor...but this might be injector, spark or timing related? Nothing to be concerned about unless it's fouling your spark plugs, it'll just use more fuel and might not be as powerful as it could be if it was running leaner :)

    • Ha ha ha, that's fair mate! We have the crackhead dogs now. Mainly because the missus wants the crazy dogs while she still has the energy and capacity to be able to keep up with them! Ha ha our current two are both Working GSD, there brothers and sisters (from the same litters) are in Police, Corrective Services, and I believe one did end up in defence force too. They're wild and fun, yet right now, both curled up asleep on the lounge room floor while we watch some TV. Mal is very likely the next dog (unless I get my couch potato guardian dog 😛 )   What are your Kitties names? Are you planning some house work, like those high kitty shelves, built in scratching post, and some cat passages from one room to another room?
    • Maine Coone, did look at but to big and fluffy As for performance dogs, we had Mals at work, performance dogs are fun to watch, but, way to much work for this old rooster
    • Yep, it was only an option on the Q50 Hybrid.  Same in Japan as far as I know. And doesn't use a centre diff like the Suby's do, so not the same as the WRX.  But it also isn't a reactive AWD like other Nissan AWD vehicles are, eg. Murano/Xtrail/etc.
    • You should have got a Maine Coone then. Only thing is they're big. But so cool, and just like a dog. Or, just get yourself a high performance dog. That'll teach you for wanting Parkour indoors 😛
    • Are you thinking of Bens R32? I don't remember if his went through the bonnet itself, but it went through the chassis rail. Brad (RISKIN) bought it, and turned it into a track car. It's funny how anti people are of Jim Berry now. I remember when I pulled mine out (during an engine change) and inspected it and found it cracking badly. At that point in time so many people were even on SAU, were so pro Jim Berry, and that was after Bens GTR exploded his quite publically.
