Texi Video Interviews Short Film Update, Help Out A Mate Win A Competition.


Recommended Posts

Hey guys my names Darvin I haven’t really been an active member here so most of you guys probably don’t know me. I’ve been working on trying to create an Australian series/short film about Cars, Car enthusiast and Car events. I’ve been trying to finish editing for the last 6 months…if you remember Eric being filmed in front of his GTR that was me behind the camera. I’ve had a lot of set backs on the project because of work and other issues like colour grading, music and also delays with recording dialogue etc… I’m still trying to find an Australian recording artist to provide me with some music… this is probably my biggest problem atm.

I’ve got 2 reasons for posting up this topic one is I’d like to know who these people are in the photos. First name, last name and also their SAU username so I can contact them personally please PM me. I need to check the spelling and need their permission to put their names in the credits.

The second reason is I’m trying to raise some funding for this project to make more films. I’m not asking for money to support my living expense or anything like that. I entered a film competition for just car insurance. To be able to win you need the highest amount of votes. If you would like to support me please have a look at the link below. (Its not spam) The video goes for one minute and is called “Illegal mods”

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
