Who's got any recommendations on guard rolling? My mate is running 9.5s on his s15 and wants a bit more clearance on the rear. I told him I could do it easily but the results would differ from a professional job haha. Where should I tell him to take it?

Depends on what he needs done..to have to lip rolled up all the way I have had about 5 cars done at wheelworx and have been happy everytime. Most wheel / tyre places won't get the lip the whole way up. Wheelworx made their own guard roller and Joe knows his stuff

My guards were rolled by Scandyflick using a mallet and heat gun, far cleaner than many 'professional' jobs I've seen. Results always differ, but I didnt have any paint cracking.

i was gonna say, wooden or rubber mallet+heat gun+patience

All you RB20 people out there.

Brothers 32 is running abit weird. It has splitfires, 040, stock turbo, new plugs etc

When driving it, it hits around 38-4000rpm and cuts power (basically back down to 1500rpm then climbs again, then cuts)

I've checked the ignitor and AFM (borrowed others) and that hasnt fixed it.

The car doesn't get driven much so any help is appreciated.

Next step would be gap some new plugs (current is 1.1 or 1.2)

cant give Kudos Motorsport a more high rep

purchased parts a year ago and he couldn't supply the parts Andrew offered a full refund minus the parts he supplied and i said i would be happy to purchase more parts later which brings me to now

after deciding i didn't want to purchase more parts Andrew was willing to refund the price of the pars

very happy would happily use again

Try ignition pack, mate had a problem with his recently were it would drop revs and cylinders until he got a new one. If not I'm on the ECU train

Tried the ignitor and didn't fix it. Will try ecu, if that doesn't fix it been told maybe tps sensor.

tps wouldnt kill the throttle, tps is only there for response. if the tps is unplugged you can still run the engine

do you have a consult cable? I'd be chucking that on and seeing if there are any ecu error codes...

does the car idle OK?

-D

    • I've looked up the parts number (41011AL501). It's around $700 OEM. Usually our Infiniti G35 here in Canada have interchangeable parts with my Stagea but the parts number are not the same. I have looked around and it seems the JDM 2005 V35 Skyline (which is the same as our G35) has the same caliper but I cannot confirm. And I can't find a repair kit. The inner brake pads drags on the rotor, seems to be rusty piston. Thanks for the info by the way
    • This coupled with 6-9 speed autos with ridiculously short gearing is why these modern shitbox cars always seem so fast off the line. If it wasn't for those things, Raptors would not seem fast. The problem we have is there is a driveability gap between a more gentle take off and a wheelspinning sideways launch. The difference between ankle flex required to achieve one and ankle flex required to achieve the other is about 0.5°.
    • Yeah I think I'm also with the opposite here. It's 'hard to keep up with traffic' because in the real world I'm accelerating with 15% throttle and they are pinning it. It feels like I'm being an overt dickhead at anything above 15% throttle, so the car sounds like I'm being an overt dickhead to keep up with/get ahead of traffic when I'm really just trying to drive with traffic. There would be no issue 'keeping up with traffic' if we used the same level of throttle input/aggression to drive around. People really do just drive around with their foot nearly pinned in econoboxes.
    • To be fair it's the other way around. 300kw is boring in a modern Golf or BMW. They are so competent / well-engineered / devoid of emotion that you have to go stupid fast to feel anything. Whereas the <300kw RB still makes all the right noises and it feels good to drive. Can pull off at the lights with the turbo whooshing and the blow-off pssshing and feel like the coolest kid on the block. Just don't look to the side where you'll see the bored housewifes in their shitbox Yaris/Corolla/Camry that kept up because you didn't go fast at all
    • 300kW is so boring in a Skyline, you'll get spanked by someone's mum's Golf with Alibaba pipes, and an email tune.
