I'd like to bash him for all the rude comments he makes.

No seriously, his head is made of mild steel rather than alluminium so it wont get bigger if we praise him. I find it's because at 3.258495 Litres you get optimum head efficiency and any more is a waste of time.

:(

I Propose a SAU Hall of Fame for the likes of Sydney Kid and others. Newbies will be able to tell those who have technical knowledge from the likes of me and others. (If they don't notice that his replies are well thought out, detailed and answers your question!)

Thanks for all the help!

Hahaha Rev, I think that you'll find most "traditional" older tuners don't like nitrous, especially those with a circuit background :P

I think it's great to have people like SKid on the forums, as they not only have experience to assist and help people avoid making mistakes but are also willing to share their info.

John Munro, Mario, ylwgtr and anyone who contributes their automotive experience also fall into the same boat.

I can't agree more.

Always happy to give advice. It's a VERY rare thing to have someone with such knowledge that is willing to freely give advice.

I know of a heap of tuners/mechanics that would say "I know how to do it, but it's a trade secret".

Plus he likes Jack Daniels, so he must be an alright bloke :P

Yes i agree 100% with everyone, ur knowledge on modifications and things in general is much appreciated by all i beleive. Its good to see that most of ur replies go into great detail also and not just 1 or 2 lines. I sent u a pm recently thanking u. 2 cheers from me mate

    • My bad, I unplugged the one underlined in red instead of yellow before. With the car started, after unplugging the IACV (the one underlined in yellow), it idled at around 400/500 for 3 seconds before stalling. Attempting to start the car without the IACV will not start the car.   It does stutter and sputter for around 5 seconds before dying. However, immediately after starting it, you can already hear some slight sputters from the exhaust.   It won't start with the AFM unplugged. If it is when the car has already started, it stalls in a few seconds.   Yesterday, I did take some logs using Nistune of 3 scenarios. Car idling till it stalls Car idling and unplugging the IACV Car idling and removing the AFM I also have some previous logs of when the Car is idling till it stalls and when driving and it cuts. I am not really knowledgeable enough to understand what to look for. After every test, car idles rougher and rougher, until I have to stop. It will be fine the day after.
    • There is no difference between a 17x8 and an 18x8. The total diameter of the tyre needs to remain +/- the same (so you don't mess up the gearing, speedo reading, and clearance when turning front wheels..... so you just need to use a lower profile tyre on th 18 than you do on the 17. /rocket surgery.
    • I thought the same to start with. But then I thought it was one of those LCAs where the end of the ARB goes through a bushing in the LCA itself, instead of having an end link.
    • Yeah - I mean, go the other way. Smaller range. Not larger.
    • To re-cap, I bought: https://www.alibaba.com/product-detail/Lsailt-8G-Infiniti-Q50-Q60-2014_1601171829627.html?spm=a2756.trade-list-buyer.0.0.2cd476e9FTIlKE As you can see, if I bought 20 it was $653, but I bought 1 so it was $1,170. I was very tempted to buy 2 and resell 1 at 25% cheaper. @MBS206, I am not sure if they do a Kluger one, here is their list but it might be there under a global model name: http://www.lsailt.com/product/android-interface?page=1 Keep in mind these full android replacements have basically all the bits a phone does (cpu, ram, storage, wifi, bluetooth, usb interfaces) other than a screen (it uses a host), thus the $800+ cost. Android Auto screen mirroring is MUCH cheaper as it's just a cut down shell, input mirroring and output mirroring BTW I also need that "screen off" feature, it is much harder to see wildlife even if a dash is reasonably dark. Both the Fuga and V37 have display off buttons for night use, they just come back on for a second or 3 if you interact with it, eg skip a song.
