Mugabetown - Whoretownin' At It's Worst.


Recommended Posts

guys i used to work with on oil rigs would work 12 on 1 off ones fully retired at 24 after 7 years on the rigs.

Gallardo in the shed for his troubles

I have a mate the same, He retired this year at 32 after 10 years of work as a mining engineer in a gold mine, at first he was in Kalgoolie then he was in Mauritania, worked 3 weeks got 2 weeks off where they would fly him to wherever he wanted and was on 500k a year for his troubles. He has been more or less everywhere in the world and owns 6 houses outright in Perth and Kalgoolie. He is pretty much just living off rental income for as long as he likes.

mine, silver 33 gtr , white wheels and missing rear wing end caps

I do think i recall seeing it out there. Hard to remember a lot of them. So So many cars. But luckily a lot of ppl's cars arent setup for continuous track use and half the cars where parked in the pits cooling down so the track was never too busy lol

what do you mean you need to upgrade your stock radiator when puting out 3x the factory power? and now you tell me i need to add an oil cooler and possibly a trans cooler too???

madness.

i was speaking to a former truck driver, has his own house and mostly paid off by his early 20's

he was saying you need to seriously think about how/if you can handle killing someone when you hit them, because its not a case of IF its a case of WHEN. he got out of it not too long after he nearly killed a guy that drove through a stop sign without stopping to check traffic.

even in stock form the cars still not built for full track use.

one happy laps was enught for me to go back to the drawing board on my car

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • 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!
