You laugh now, but when I'm at a formal occasion with a shitty DJ and they need someone to drop Dre beats...I have something up my sleeve.

Hey gais, long time. Got back from o/s last night, was hectic, will post some pics soon.

I was reading up on them earlier, apparently they give more protection than they do aerodynamic assistance. Some manufacturer did wind tunnel tests and found little to no aerodynamic change, whilst people have been in crashes with them and claimed that the hump levels out your back with the back of your helmet - therefore less pressure on / chance of hyperextending your neck in a fall.

All this and to add, in race suits they carry a bladder for water. The influence of this in a fashion sense would contribute to modeling road jackets the same way.

Usually guys who are wearing them on an underpowered bike are just preparing for their upgrade :) A lot of stuff on a bike is mainly for looks, I think it looks good if you match it right.

Congrats on the DRZ Leigh, looks like you were down my way! My friend had one and we used to got chasing rabbits in Westerfolds Park, rad fun :P

yeh.

bought pad shims because my rear pads were squealing.

my pads stopped squealing already though. so i'll keep them for next pad change, how much were those remsas?

Were $140 a pair for the fronts and about $70 for the rears i think

Alv - now that you're an eastern suburbs kid, have you tried Rich Mahas yet? I know it looks like shit, but this beef curry is decent and there's no better roti in Melbourne.

      Boost cut after swap(RB25DET NEO) R34

      By Kapr · Posted

      Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler

      Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?

      Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
