you may want to take a class on learning to spell. people on here rarely respond to txt type and poor spelling. if your chasing parts read the classifieds theres alot of guys with bumpers for sale. when you say " south coast gong area" i assume you mean woolongong nsw?? which seems obvious because 90% of people there couldnt spell if you threw a dictionary at them. i blame the schools.

I fixed your spelling, capitalisation and punctuation for you.

If you're after bars, check out the Stagea Parts section, eBay or Import Monster.

See, it's funny because that's what he was talking about. Ahh, humour. I love it because it makes me laugh :laugh:

Thanks i should of thought of that. ;) Although surely I'm not the only one that noticed that TXT type posts get ignored or just mocked??

You are right Ray. That is normally the case. I didn't mean to take the mickey, it's just that if I was to post what you did, I would have triple checked it & Alex's response made me lol, oops, laugh out loud :rolleyes:

Spelling.

There are some, quite a lot actually, who have a disability that is often overlooked. DYSLEXIA.

A while back, someone slighted 17yo about his spelling. That action was very upsetting to both 17yo and 66yo, as 17yo has the affliction.

Unfortunately, as was mentioned, the School System is at fault because the word DYSLEXIA is not in the System's dictionary and a very large proportion of sufferers drop out of the School System in year 12 because of their inability to cope with the pressures of ordinary reading and writing. Unless they have some special skills many of these kids end up on the dole roundabout with all its Social stigmas.

They need lots of encouragement, love and understanding to help them in their early adulthood.

17yo is about to begin a Motor Mechanic apprenticeship. So maybe having his own Stagea is money well spent.

    • Hey guys, Just want some advice on r34 GTT ac system. Since I’ve owned it, the ac compressor, doesn’t matter the set temperature or ambient temperature, runs for around 10 seconds then disengages the clutch, then re-engages everywhere 30 seconds or so and keeps repeating this.    is this normal?   I had it recharged today as it was slightly low and thought it would fix it but still does it. it cools fine in summer even prior to the recharge, except for the usual warmup when stopped or in traffic (still yet to wire overheat fan to on with ac)   any thoughts would be much appreciated 
    • To plug the hole. The engine plant may not have known whether the car it was going into had a gauge or not. It was a long time ago and the integrations might not have been fully modern. Or they might not have cared because the extra inventory and processes to save a few cents on the sender might have cost more anyway. But please tell me you are not still confusing the idea of a pressure gauge sender, and an oil pressure light switch. The switch will be out there. In a separate hole. Probably with only one wire running to it. Running the light.
    • Blower needs to go low on the exhaust side, displacing the AC and PS, which you have to decide whether you want to keep and how and where to relocate if you do. Electric option for PS is, at least, helpful. Sadly, there is no workable 12V electric AC of any value. Whilst the blower is the last compression step before the throttle, and so it might seem a good idea to have it near the inlet manifold (as mentioned above), you probably want it to go through an intercooler first, so, having it on the opposite side of the car facilitates that air flow path. The turbo discharges into the blower, so proximity of the turbo's compressor outlet to the blower's inlet is nice. But then you might want to intercool that too, before boosting it again....which would probably be a ball ache. Routing pipes out to the front and back could be a bit shit. If there was room for (at least) a small (but preferably larger) water to air core on that side, then that would probably be the best approach. I guess a reasonable alternative would be to locate the blower where the alternator is (more or less, associated with the inlet manifold, per Matt's thought), and somehow incorporate a water to air core into the manifold, sort of like they do for modern blown V8s. The big difference here though is that those V8s have only the one throttle (upstream the blower) and only the one compression step (the blower) and no need for too much in the way of bypass/blowoff valves. Whereas in a twin charged 6, you do need to think about one or two bypass valves associated with the 2 compressors and you would prefer to have the intercooling done before the air has to pass through the throttle. You'd like the throttle to work approx the same no matter what the compression is doing. But if it is located in hot air stream before a cooler, then sometimes the air will be real hot, sometimes it will be quite cool, and the throttle mapping/response will be quite different between those two cases. The throttle, if sized for hot air, would be too large for cold conditions. It's all a ball ache.
    • Package SC on exhaust side. Remote mount turbo. Still a fair bit of room when you get creative on the inlet side of the motor too. Especially if you can get really creative with the welding, and effectively build it into the bottom of the inlet manifold. Would definitely take some design work, and some trial and error, to make sure flow works well still! Might be easier to just start with the Nissan March though... All the work is already done for you...
    • I'll sit down and get a post together 😁
