:throwup:

2 weeks ago some C$%T ripped the "S" off my car when i parked it at Monash uni... and as if that wasnt bad enough (ok $25 for a new one) on Saturday night another degernerate piece of bacteria stole the nissan badge from the boot... Now that one really pisses me off because i have a series 1 r33 and the badge matches the colour of the car.....

I just wanted to know how many of you out there have been subject to the same experience as me and if the rage i feel is natural. I have been deeply considering buying a nice powerful rifle, re-badging my car and waiting in a tree for a few nights to get me some retribution!!!!!

that sucks man - thats just one of many reasons why i dont like parking my car in any public car parks etc...

from your avatar it looks like your car is black - did you have a nissan boot key lock badge thing that was black and a clear coat over it like this one:

If so i sent that one back to Mark Gibbsons (?) panel house in queensland because it was the wrong one... he charged me $45 + $8 shipping for it, you can replace it yourself by taking the locking barrel out of your existing one and putting it in the new one...

I remember many moons ago, Honda badges were hot items for low life like this to rip off...a friend of mine had his Honda badge stolen and also his rear high wing spoiler ripped off the boot...leaving bumps on the boot uneven where the spoiler was. - was kind of funny thinkin back...

Some eeediot even took my woman's chrysler badge!?...loser of a low life dint even do a good job...only managed to rip 80% out and the rest are still stuck to the bonnet. If dipstick like that have half a brain, they would know a Chrysler badge is worth less than jelly beans.

I dont see the point of taking badges, they are worthless after u force it out and they cant reuse it anyway.. :D

See this thread on the info meshmesh gave me on how to replace it - its quite easy

Thanks for that i will definately have to do it soon, but i am considering leaving my car badgeless and getting a new front grill without the space for a badge, at least until i finish uni at the end of the year!

well, i don't know if im trying to go one better, but i have NO badges AT ALL ! just the dirty outline and slight paint discolouration where they USED to be.... No 'S', no GT badges (probably the only ones i miss) and nothing on the back but the embossed section between the lights - Would've taken a big knife to get THAT mofo off !! :rofl:

(and BTW, im still looking for a set of the side GT badges, where do yous guys get them ?)

      98 R34GTT 4k engine stumble

      By JC71 · Posted

      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.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      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.

      They have said food will be limited. Mainly meat pies and sausage rolls from memory. But they have a coffee van!
