Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

I have learnt from past mistakes I very rarely creep over the speed limit and haven't done one skid since I've had my license back

I'm just saying cos zac, I and a few others don't want to see you in hospital, lost license or your car getting crushed or totaled.

So just looking at what your talking about and it does sound like a bad idea. Also getting prepared for a turbo when your off your ps might not even happen, you might get bored, or things might happen, do what you have to do to it on your ps, you have 2 years on your ps still, that's a long time and you never know, things happen. Having a skyline comes with great responsibility, a sense of honor and you have to keep a good reputation for skylines and the club your a part of. So don't do anything stupid with your car, or make it so that police will ream you. You have to think about what your doing and not just think power, you have to think about everything and everyone else you might effect.

Hello all :)

well said Kath.....but responsibility becomes more natural as you get older and things fall into place without too much adverse effects

Thank you :) I didn't want to say that but that was my general meaning :P

Can't wait to get pulled over by cops and them not being able to ping me on anything :) haha

lol. I feel like the pink panther driving my green one - always looking over my shoulder for the blue lights and a quick exit stage left :)

Depends on what you want it for. It's all relative and depends on what you consider big numbers. Anything involving a built motor you better be ready to dump 10-20k in it. Looking at any of the engine builds on this forum you can see how they can spiral out of control. Not to mention anything that goes wrong and the time it takes to actually get it all sorted.

In saying that you could buy everything second hand slap it together and put an ebay spec turbo kit on it and crack 300kw pretty easily.

I would be looking for 400+ if that's at all possible with a dirty 30

I understand but we are still young and I admit I am stupid sometimes, like most young people do get and we make mistakes. I plan to learn quick and give skylines a better name :)

see this post.

high 300's with a gt35 and with the right manifold/exhaust can make full boost at 3500.

would i suggest that as a daily? not so much, too laggy? not really, but it is too much power for general street duties when you need wide semis just to avoid spinning 3rd when it comes on boost.

Honestly if this 31 works out, I will baby it so much and losing my license again is a bad choice I've already seen how much it f**ks with career paths, I wasn't able to get a job where I wanted til I got it back and by the time i did have it back I was already working at a dead end job until I got offered a trial at this workshop, and the accident also woke me up to pay more attention to driving I don't wanna put myself in that position where the club has to ask me to leave I know I have to behave to be part of this club and there are plenty of opportunities to be able to be more adventurous in the car I spose if you wanna say it like that. like event days where we are on a track

I understand but we are still young and I admit I am stupid sometimes, like most young people do get and we make mistakes. I plan to learn quick and give skylines a better name :)

Nah Kath. It's far more fun to learn from mistakes lol

However, best suggestion... become good friends with an engineer will save you a lot of time :)

Thank me later. You can make that with rb25t and GTx35R - I notice there is a long motor for sale at Lewis for $1000.

I found a rb30 and gearbox for 600 close to me, just waiting to hear back from Ben

    • Hello, sorry for being late to join the discussion, but my clock just died on me.   Ive tried to look at Michaels digital clock repair.docx and it doesnt work maybe the file has expired.   Please let me know if you can re upload it or take some youtube videos to show us how to get the clock installed? thanks
    • I thought that might be the case, thats what I'll start saving for. Thanks for the info 
    • Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.
    • Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.
    • My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.
