Probably be "fun" carless for a few months. Money is going to a family car.

Might buy something at bonus time. Will see how I go without a car for a while first

Jan 23 al.

Which Qashqai Dia you go for? We are looking at the better spec petrol one

Nice!

I got the Ti I think it is? It's top of the range petrol fwd model fully loaded with everything you can think of. Really good on fuel too

Yeah good man I mean it's not what I'm used to jumping out of the lexus & audi, but I tell Ya what it does more than the prestige cars do for half the price only thing that would have been good is opening sunroof instead of the big glass moon roof

For a family car I reckon it's perfect good size I've had 4 adult men in there no issues features all work really well. Drives nice slightly sluggish but you don't buy it for speed, handles well though not too heavy like some others. My boss got his wife the top of range crv which is bit more spacious but a fair bit more money from memory and slightly less features but that's the only similar thing I'd consider the mazda / ford etc are inferior

If ya were local Id say come suss it out without a salesmen bustin ya balls etc but a bit too far lol

4cyl 2.0i Unleaded Manual = 1400kg braked

4cyl 2.0i Unleaded CVT = 1200kg braked
4cyl 1.6 Diesel CVT = 1400kg braked

Kerb weight is about 1400kg petrol manual up to 1600kg diesel cvt (unladen)... so after loading it is recommending kinda in the ballpark of the 75% towing recommendation.

wow you bought a Dualis? How come you didn't go X-trail for proper 4wd? Or a skyline crossover... Slightly older but better options and more refined feels being an Infiniti.

    • Ok guys thank you very much. GCG highflow it is then 🙂 
    • forgot to mention that when it does this it does not kill the engine, but I have not kept the pedal down long enough to let it, as I see no reason to beat up on it as its got to be something simple, small and dumb causing this.  And as soon as I let off pedal, the engine returns to its normal super smooth operation and rpms re-stabilize quickly, once below 4k. 
    • neither stumble or cut really seem to be an appropriate term....hard to explain its like a rev limiter but at 4k, but it violently shakes engine and entire vehicle as the rpms will not rise over 4k, even with slow acceleration. as soon as it hits 4k, it sounds like entire spark is lost entirely. plugs were 1.1 which I used as such, but later put in new plugs gapped down to .8 changed back after issue arose when I replaced the coils, still does it with either plug gap...damn and it was all running so good.
    • Oh how times have changed! I actually lean it out relative to my water/methanol injector duty cycle. The methanol adds a lot of fueling and you can then lean it out even more due to reduced knock. 
    • Yeah my thoughts are the same, a well thought out WMI setup, would be slightly ahead of just straight E85 and you're also chemically intercooling the charged air, dropping it even further. This is why you need to add so much more fuel as soon as you spray. I remember someone taking me through their set up before (Dennis, has a R33, lives around Cabramatta - no idea if he's still around on this forum). He would target AFR 10:1 on 98, then as WMI ramped on, AFR would lean back up to 11:1. Amazingly, he did this all through his PowerFC, a relay to cut power to his EBC solenoid if there was not enough line pressure on his WMI kit. And of course, if there wasn't any boost made above gate pressure, you wouldn't be accessing the load cells with heaps of timing for WMI. One downside to that rudimentary setup, once the WMI came on, the EBC would unleash the dragon, and of course all the timing. Tyres would fry lol.
