Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

Fk financial advice most people would say I am a terrible person to discuss financial advise with but the way I see it I am a problem solver, something goes wrong I find a way to fix it, same with money. When shit hit the fan with my douche of an ex I had near on 65k of debt for shit we had that he kept (inc. 2 cars and a dirtbike plus c/card crap) 4 years later its down to 15 plus I have paid off an additional 15k cash in education expenses over the last two years on top of my hecs - Then people wonder why I work all the time and have no money. Debt sucks and the only debt I look forward to is a house, I learnt the hard way! But knowing I can pay all my shit plus save for a wedding, pay rent, groceries for two and all the house bills whilst the other half hordes money for a mortgage is well worth the amount I work! How do I do it? I am insanely organised to the point that I often freak myself out that I have forgot something but it is just that I am that organised...

However if I don't give a shit I am not organised at all...

Disciplined :)

Haha not the right word for me, I problem solve - Really want those shoes really can't afford them, wing it so I work more that week to get them...

That's even more disciplined. In management terms they call that Locke's goal setting theory. Essentially you set waypoints to getting things you want to achieve. They have another acronym too called SMART

Specific - there is a precise and clear statement of intended outcome.

Measurable - there are clear indicators (quantitative or qualitative) of whether goal has been achieved.

Achievable - The goal is achievable, within available resources and environmental constraints, and is compatible with other goals that have been set.

Relevant - the goal is aligned with broader goals, values and priorities, which provide a rationale for the goal.

Time-bound - The goal includes a statement of precisely when it is to be achieved.

Winning Mel :)

Mel, if you've managed to affectively clear 65K (50 in debt 15 in education) in 2 years, I wouldnt say that you're bad with money... I'd say you've got it quite well managed at the moment.

Oh an Tim... Do you happen to have a spare R33 GTST S2 bonnet you'd part with?

I didn't get one with 2nd car - had to negotiate that out, as I had Titans. I can get you one pretty cheaply though, or a GTR one if you'd like they are significantly lighter. PM me for details.

No all pretty good

Just a little bit of carbon build up, looks like it was maintained well

Ok so question

If Kathryn gets this na 33

Should I take the cams and injectors from the rb25 I just picked up and put them in hers or are the cams the same

I Know the inj's are a good upgrade

I'm not sure about their compatibility, as I normally upgrade with aftermarket stuff. I am guessing, but there may be a difference in the engines compression ratio (piston tops)and there would most likely be stronger valve springs in the turbo motor, also the valve seats might be different. inj shouldn't be a problem. According to Wicki the bore and stroke is the same and the cams are the same duration and lift between the motors, accordingly no benefit from cam swap. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nissan_RB_engine

Also, sounds like you sourced a really good RB30 engine. :)

I wouldn't swap cams.

NA and turbo engines run a different profile for a reason.

Injectors, will it need extra fuel? What're you going to do to tune it? What mods to require more fuel?

Tim PM incoming on 2 different topics

Ok guys so if all goes well on Saturday providing Ben can make it and I get his 31, my goal is to have it on the road for charity cruise the only bad thing that will hold me from having this happen is being broke as a bum

If you get the na, don't go sticking turbo bits in while na.

Turbo cams and na cams have different profiles because they benefit from the cams have more or less overlap depending on desired application.

If you get any mods for it keep them basic as they arent worth much when sold and will cost significantly more than just buying a turbo one to begin with

    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
    • You think its the AFM? I know its a common issues on R32s. I find it coincidental how this issue raised right after cleaning the fuel system. As everything except the fuel system was fine before. I tried running it with the IACV unplugged but did not notice a difference and still stalled. However, the RPM gauge is not in the cluster right now, so I will need to connect the laptop again and use Nistune to check the RPM. I will check this weekend.
