Damn, man. I thought you bought another V35 for a second. :P

A V36 would be hot! (I am not even going to talk about a R35. :) ).

just got back from holiday overseas with my missus last year and arrived back on a friday. sat we were on the way to markets but stopped by mates house. signaled left and turned into driveway as i was doing that some idiot decided to drive right into my right side arse. id say bad judgement by him as he didnt slow down tried to change lanes but other lane was occupied so he had to swerve back to my lane and boom shacka lacka boom@. tbh car wasnt insured as i forgot to pay for it when i was on holiday but it didnt lapsed over 14 days so it was still good but wasnt my fault so all worked out. still....

Yeah, man. Definitely.

I am even thinking of buying a Hybrid to save on fuel when Mirage dies. :P

True.

Well, if you get a V36, we should be rolling together again. :)

God, I miss those days.

what a shame. That was one nice V35. wonder if Colin is going to dress it up or just returning it to stock looking.

It was, indeed. :(

I am pretty sure it is back to stock, unless Colin buy different rear bumper because the Weber Sports front and side skirts were sold separately.

R35 for sure! Or I heard infiniti is coming to aus so get a g37, just expect to pay lexus territory (way better than an is350 looks & quality wise, got to test drive one & I think is350 & V36 similar straight line performance so would be up to the driver imo)

I'd have an R35 yesterday if I wasn't saving up a deposit for an investment property

      Never ending fuel pump drama

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      So last night pulling away from the lights, I lost power for about 1 second. Bit weird, but I kept driving... 5 minutes later the pump completely dies. When I tried to start the car, the pump won't even prime.  I left the car for about an hour, tried to start it and it all appeared fine. Pump primed, car started, got the fuel pressure I should have.... Start driving home, 5 minutes later it dies again. I'm stuck in a shit spot this time going up hill with a car right behind me, so I just let the car continue to turn over while praying to the fuel pump gods. After about 2 minutes of turning the engine over, the fuel pump came back to life and I got home (only about another 5 min away).  So I've been digging around online, it seems like the 525 fuel pumps really don't like to be run at 100% all the time. I've found quite a few examples online of people killing their Walbro 525 pumps within about a year of usage when they are run without PWM.  So, my pump is an Aeroflow 525 (AF49-1057) and I've been running it at 100% without PWM. I'm thinking the Aeroflow 525 didn't like being run at 100% and has burnt itself up.  I really am sick of dealing with fuel pump issues, my current thoughts are -  1. Use a Walbro 450 and run it without PWM. It seems like these pumps hold up pretty well to being run at 100% all the time. I only make about 350kw and can't see me making any more power any time soon so this is probably a fine option.  2. Get a Walbro 525, run it with PWM. I know doing this will annoy me as I feel like with only 350kw, its extra expense that I don't "need" and I'll be thinking the whole time while setting it up that I should have gone with option 1. I know I'll be happy with this option when its setup and running, its only the initial setup frustration and cost as an issue.  3. Get a Walbro BKS1001 brushless pump. This is the fu*k it I'm already going PWM, might as well go full retard. This option just seems better in every way, with the only downside being cost. But I don't know much about this pump so I could be wrong.  Happy to get everyone's thoughts before I go digging around in the fuel tank again.

      Like loud exhausts? You could be a psychopath.

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Actually, it is probably pretty legit. I mean, it's still woke feminazi bullshit academia, but you would have to agree that it is very likely that there would be a correlation between wanting a loud exhaust and scoring at the unpleasant end of the scales for dark triad personality traits. The fact that they found it didn't correlate with narcissism and only with psychopathy and sadism definitely shows that the loud exhaust thing is more of a "f**k you" than a "look at me", and I reckon that rings pretty close to most of the dickheads who take it to the extreme. Remember, this is correlation with tendency to be closer to one end of a personality trait scale than the other end. Of course someone who is at the literal opposite end of the psychopathy scale is going to be so considerate of others that they wouldn't even think about wanting to upset anyone with a loud exhaust. So the finding isn't that "you are a psychopath". Just that you score more towards that end of the scale than someone who doesn't like loud exhausts (on average, not necessarily even for specific individuals).

      Blue Smoke from exhaust, RB25DE+T

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Stock R33 boost control, with the exhaust, and FMIC done, will boost creep. There is no tuning around it if it is the factory boost solenoid.   If it has an aftermarket electronic boost controller, the settings/mapping can be altered in it.   Oil could be anything as mentioned, however did it ever do it before you did the turbo swap? How much and how often did you drive the car before the swap?   I'm hinging on too much oil supply, or it's not draining properly.   To check, pull the air outlet off the turbo. Is it full of oil? Drop the exhaust at the turbo, does it appears to be oiled/coked? Now pull turbo and check the exhaust manifold, does it appears oiled and coked the same way?   Secondly, the PCV could even be stuffed / not functioning properly and will cause blowing of blue smoke.
