Just curiouse to see if im the only sucker out there?

After making sure my wife knew not to throw 1 specific box out, I thought I had all bases covered. i asked her to get this box out containing a brand new gizzmo electronic boost controller, turns out she pulled the manual out and threw the rest in the bin.... Haven't been this devo'd since I blew up my turbo.

Lol any one else having these issues and is there a group buy on for newer model wives?

Bahahaha, sorry to hear mate. It's best to ban ur wife from the garage. Whilst I have never had this problem I'm sure my wife wishes I'd write my 260rs off or that It would catch fire or something. She calls my stag the never ending story!

My missus was banned from the garage, after she started dumping washing baskets and other household detritus on my farkin workbench!

I bought her a whole house to play in, I only want one room for myself.

Lol thanks Craig. Just shattering is all. I can't even stay angry at her, she rang me all emotional and crying and I couldn't even get angry or I'm the guy that made his pregnant wife cry.... I swear if they didn't have a vag we'd throw rocks at them.

Get used to it mate. Women cant help themselves, they've just gotta touch things that dont concern them. But if u move anything of thiers they lose the plot. Give it a try. Move a picture or some junk they've cluttered your house with.

Funny story on that Ray! There was a cheap arse picture that never made it onto the wall in my house.........I'd tripped over it for a little over 5 years. Anyway it ended up in my garage with a whole heap of other shit that was suppose to be moved out within a week of going in there(she took nearly 8 months and numerous arguments).

Long story short on the day when "I had" decided to reclaim man land she came out to help.......for some reason she still would not let me through the picture out even though it was never going to go on the wall.

So the conversation went a little like this after I had figured out that it didn't matter what I did she was going to end up with the shits.

First item!

Me: Can we get rid of the 2 dollar picture that I have been tripping over for 5 years and has never made onto a wall?

Wife: Noooooo!!!

Me: Why?

Wife: It might be useful one day?

Me: Your kidding arn't you?.......it's an 2 dollar POS!

Wife: Don't start me Craig we are KEEPING it!

Me: So were keeping broken shit now!!!

Wife: It's not broken and we are KEEPING it

Me: So can we throw broken stuff out

Wife: Yes

-----Foot goes through picture-----

Wife: I cannot believe you just did that arsehole!

Me: (Walking off) You have till the end of the day to move that shit out of the garage........then all the shit is going back into the house and you can deal with it!

We had our biggest garbage collection ever....and I got my garage back! :banana:

Special cuddles went on further hold...... :/

I get sick of my wife asking "why do you need all these cars bits. Stop building new cars...blah blah"

I have just rented another 8x8m storage shed beside my other 12x8m without her knowing

I can now build another car and she will not know until it turns up in the driveway in 6 months time......watch this space

I love this. Mrs 66 has never asked me to get rid of any (good) shit. We have a great big four Stagea garage, but there are no cars in it. We have an Art Gallery, Mrs. 66 is a really great Artist. The garage is full of frame making equipment. that is my forte!. but there is a certain amount of space for stuff. Coil overs, turbos, plennums, pipes, nuts and bolts, tubing, tools, oils etc. etc. etc. The simple necessities of life to sustain an elderly afficondio like myself. It even has a fridge XXXX

The back garage is so full of stuff that I cant get in to sharpen the mower blades. The very back shed has a BMX, a mountain bike, half an R30, most of a Sil and all sorts of Stagea bits and heaps of wheels and tyres

I live in Nissan Heaven.

      34 de+t conversion using s2 stagea automatic transmission, engine harness and ecu

      By albyz34gt · Posted

      Ok so after much research and talking with knowledgeable people I've got my turbo conversion done and it's all running great other than 1 small issue.  Car has remained auto with the na auto and tcm, I've used a stagea ecu with. NIstune board and everything is great other than my gear selection on the dash. It illuminates park, reverse, neutral, 3rd and 2nd. But nothing drive or what gear your in when you pop it into tiptronic.  I'm sure there is may e 1 wire in the ecu plug I need to move to rectify this. Dose anyone here have any ideas?   Cheers guys

      Sorry I haven't been following all the detail, so you may have tried this. Does it idle with the tiniest bit of throttle you can add? You've mentioned the IACV, does it have an AAC valve and have you adjusted it at all (ie, screw the idle adjust screw all the way in, then back it out a couple of turns until idle is stable)?

      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.

      Wheel Sizes & Offsets For Skylines

      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.
