Yeah all those Easter egg hunts for keys to luxury sedans mus be taking it out of you.

On the topic of torx, I had an idea the other day...I don't think police carry torx bits with them, so if you were to install "heat shields" in your engine bay covering up...certain items...and said heat shields were fastened using torx screws...how could they inspect your vehicle on the side of the road? :)

yeh but it woould kill trying to fit two wastegates in there.. im trying to keep the whole setup low mount and away

twin gates? twin scroll doesn't need twin gates, its just twin entry into the turbo pretty much

mine only had one internal wastegate

How much is paint? Rent sprayer from you? > :D

Yep, don't think they have torx though. Just screwdrivers and sockets. Worth a shot :)

I'd stick a big trollface on the shield too lol.

I want to definitely hit over 300kw with e85. Hopefully I'll be at 20psi by about 3800-4k with the stage 2 cams. Bit laggy but I'm not fussed Using a .82 rear so we'll see how it goes. Can always go a smaller housing

:O

.82 in GTX on 2ltr

I think laggier than 3800rpm, and need at least 24psi to see 300rwkw on a 4 banger

They'd probably just send you straight to the EPA or defect it...Guilty til proven innocent (at your own expense) is the way it seems to go here....

Yeh tuner wants to push 25psi through it, I probably will to get a figure then bring it back under. I think the .82 will be ok, plus if it isn't it's not going to be to hard to go smaller

I thought about this, and I know they can defect you for an exhaust on suspicion...didn't think they could defect you on engine mods they can't see and therefore don't know exist though...what would they write down on the paper? At least if they send you somewhere to get it inspected, it would allow you time to remove the illegal stuff before getting it inspected. You wouldn't avoid the pain in the ass but possibly avoid a fine.

    • Maybe they'll look to do a bunch of presales to help inject some cash fast for their financial issues...
    • Does it also misfire equally when revving?   Josh is very correct in what you should do. The coilpack harness wiring loom itself is a known problem due to its age and the number of heat cycles it has gone through. Throwing parts at a vehicle to diagnose the issue isn't a smart or good way to do it. Secondly, you may have a bad coil pack, you pop replacements in, they fix that issue, but messing with the harness breaks it, so the issue persists. So now you think "well it wasn't the coil packs" and have to continue chasing your tail, potentially swapping back in your shit coil packs and returning the good ones (yes, I've seen people do this because 'it wasn't the problem' and they want to save money). And suddenly, you've got two issues with the same symptoms...   Diagnose, don't use the spare parts shotgun.
    • Well the articals keep saying a Q50s (Skyline in Japan) with a new Manual gearbox. I like the talk about the new looks with the round tail lights. I hope they bring back the retro look like they did with the Z
