those look nice there mate, been thinking about getting a new set of boots for the gear boot and hand break, but haven't been bothered as of yet, are they eBay special for like $20 odd plus like $5 for P/H?, if so, can you let me know how they go please

yeah they are, 20 bucks, and 9.90 postage from britania land, the leather is nice. everything fits well, even the rubber top in the gearstick boot. its made to replace the original exactly. i had to trim a little excess around the bottom of the gear boot, and the wire frame in the handbrake boot is a little to soft compared to the original, but hasnt been an issue yet (if it pops out ill add a few dabs of glue).

Mmmm car smells like leather

nice figures mate,

yeah it's sledgehammer like, on another note:

Those who are wanting to cruise down to QR as a group we are meeting at the southbound BP on the highway at 4:30am for a 4:45 leave time, This gives everyone 15 mins to grab some fuel a coffee and a feed.

Make that 4AM just to account for slow people and a quick hello.

been thinking a little lately, i have 2x 10" thermos i want to install into the skyrine, and i was wondering if this would be benificial or would it be better to just get like say a single 16" thermo

Thermo fans are only benificial if you have a shroud for them. There are some shrouds if my memory serves me correct on ebay that suit the standard rad. Control wise, I'm not a hugh fan of the thermo control units that use the probe in the top hose, you would be better off using a thermo switch sender mounted in a bit of stainless pipe in the top hose. If you have an aftermarket computer you can use it to trigger a relay.

happy laps were double as happy!!

track started getting wet again after we had breaky and they asked us to go out again and dry the track off for them (V8 Experience guys).

sry for leaving yas behind, i was in a hurry. Clint you and old mate (forgot his name already) make it thru ok?? i got to the christening about 3 mins late :P close enough for me :thumbsup:

Yeah I just took Joe up to Beams road and pointed him in the direction of the Highway. I saw ralph going back the other way what was that about?

Guys it was good to see you at Double Epic Super-Happy laps!:action-smiley-069:

Thanks for having us, I will finally after 5 years be filling out my membership form and getting that sorted Monday.

haha old mate!

ended up getting home and goin back to bed for 3 hours, 4am is far too early to be getting up..

had a good day though, would have been better if clint didnt steal my ride in Noel's 33!

BTW mate, didnt happen to run into any P plater Lancers on the way home did you ;)???

Funny you should mention P plater lancers, there was one acting the fool on the way home in the wet.

I stole that seat fair and square, I have been eyeing off a ride in the wheelchair since it was unveiled.

You'll just have to come up again when it's at lakeside then he can take ya for a real lap.

    • My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.
    • Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?
    • What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
