This could be a mistake on Orgins behalf. If they honour it i dunno.

So I rang around. Cheapest I found was $330, which is significantly under the $449 RRP for an Optima D34 yellow-top.

For those who are interested in a cheap Optima, talk to BRS (Battery Replacement Services) - these guys were great, even came out and dropped off the Optima to me, so I didn't have to go for a drive :)

went to a weight bridge tonight on the way home from work. The 33 with a full tank of fuel, spare tyre all the interior etc came in at 1387kg with a few little things done already. pretty much on the money, also pretty heavy for what it is. Planning on getting it under 1300kg (couldnt care less if its 1299) over the next few weeks while still keeping it as a daily and full of fuel. Lets see how this goes

Where do ya go to weigh it? I'd love to weigh the GTR with a full tank of fuel... it'd be heavy as hell thanks to dynamat (and its heavier still with my 120 kilos when I'm in the damn thing) but yeah... very curious.... otherwise I gotta pay someone with corner weights and a hoist

-D

lol thats funny as.... probably still worth getting the corner weights done heh

-D

Or any dump - every dump has a weighbridge that you drive over on entry. They will almost always tell you what you weigh if you just rock up to the gate.

    • So.... the K&N air box thingo was too big, ended up gifting it to a mate, well, by gifting it he actually supplied food and beer at the pub,  which was nice, as it will not sit on a shelf in the garage for the next 10 years I did trim up some of the existing stuff to neaten it all up and gave it some wrinkle paint, unfortunately it currently has a used and abused mish mash of different types of hose clamps, 4 big fat T bolt type (shit), and a few normal clamps of vairing sizes and brands, but..... only until the 6 constant tension black worm clamps that I ordered from EFI solutions turn up next week Currently the current hose clamps are triggering me hard, LOL Is this the final version, probably not, I really want just 2 silicone pieces, a straight bit of silicone from the filter to the MAF is easy and will happen as soon as I head into Just Jap tomorrow, the problematic part is a 30° silicone bend from the MAF to the TB that I can connect the engine breather from the head, I found that there are bulk head fittings for boat bilge pumps that should work, but until I can get a 30° silicone bend the alloy pipe, and the 11ty thousand hose clamps, are there for the foreseeable future 4 hose clamps are golden, 6 are grudgingly acceptable, the 8 currently holding it all together is just taking the piss    I've also ordered 60 more retaining wall blocks for the front yard, I mis-gonculated the height that was required to get above the base of the Photinia's (red robin's) that are the hedge behind the front fence, currently it is 2 blocks high, and about 1/2 a block short, so going 3 blocks high will be above the base of the red robin's, and allow some room for mulch
    • It is the stock air box with the panel filter. Everything else is stock except the exhaust at this point, as I also went back to the cleaned 270cc injectors. I will check the RPM when the IACV is unplugged and report back.
    • As MBS suggested if this is happening when the engine is cold you're going to want to remove the intake air regulator and verify resistance + that the shutter is physically opening and closing. At -20C should be fully open, 20C half open, over 60C fully closed. At 20C should be 70-80 ohms. For AAC valve testing using a Consult cable see if you can raise and lower the idle by commanding more or less AAC duty cycle. Hopefully it's pretty linear as well, shouldn't be like 30% AAC valve is barely idling and 40% is 1500 rpm.
    • Bloody apprentices! 🙄
    • Not sure yet.  Was considering speedtek because it was rated to 800hp, but when I did some research about him I don't think I will go for that🤣 So maybe giken gear set, but I'm afraid it won't be strong enough🙄
