People who stick gtr badges are the same ones using cheap china crap on there ride. They are in it for the wank factor, and the hope someone who knows nothing about cars but reconises GTR associated with a fast car to think what they are driving is something special. Same thing with lancer evolutions, you have a mint cp9a evolution and some chump with a body kit that cost the price of your front lip with ralliart stickers, went through all the trouble to try and make people think his poorly executed lancer is a rally based street car.

Meh, I have China shit on my car but no GT-R badge.

Do have a bunch of random anime stickers for LOLs

How To Suck at Trolling, written by Elegant Skyline

1. Think of an awesome trolling idea

2. Rush to post your awesome trolling idea on some random forum

3. Watch your awesome trolling idea fail, miserably

4. Try to act cool and carefree

5. Watch your awesome cool acting fail, miserably

6. Pull out a last ditch trolling idea, one that you saved for emergency purposes

7. Watch it crash and burn, miserably

8. Bail!

9. Fap furiously, then repeat the above steps on another random forum

1. Why thanks for thinking it's awesome.

2. Ain't no rush, really...

3. No not really, 1,248 views and "Hot" 63 replies in just 2 days seems pretty good to me.

4. Cause i am cool and carefree.

5. Refer to point "4"

6. You been thinking about this very deeply haven't you?

7. Refer to point "3"

8. "Hail!"

9. Pfft like i'm gonna do that with this account, maybe i will blend in with the community with a different account.

This is the sort of shit that happens when Mums and Dads don't pw protect the wifi.

Your parents are stupid.

You are the proof.

How do I remove cum stains from my R33's back seat?

More cum. Until it's totally covered and one big stain. That won't be obvious at all.

I have China crap on my GT-R. What does that make me? confused.bmp

Those who buy quality parts they do it once and they do it right.

Buying chinese turbo's, exhaust manifold, rims etc. Your setting

yourself up for a headache. However if its nothing to expensive or

Crucial like light bulbs, gear knobs etc then whatever those are easily disposable and cheap. But cheaping out on performance and safety it comes back to bite you.

There is a limit to how much china crap you should have,

as long as you have a some jap crap, your skyline should be fine.

The only China stuff (from Just Jap) on my car are the front upper arms (I was desperate for new bushes/arms as old bushes were nonexistent). My gearknob is genuine Nismo though.

Well the arms performed fine on two track days + 3 years of road use. But the bushes are noisy now, so I have hardrace ones lined up. They're China crap as well I think?

Its a bit of a gamble, for example the kinugawa china ebay turbo are cheap as and i have seen them been used in some top end builds,

heaps of people will swear by them. But at the same time the other side are talking about how they have had issues with them less then 1000km's later.

Maybe its because japanese companies etc have stricter quality control less defective products make it out on to the markets and in the hands

of the unsuspecting. So in a way you could get away with a Chinese product but in a batch of 1000 products the japanese are always going to have a

better sigma rating (number of detective free products). Pretty sure they are made in Taiwan, you should get away with them.

So far on my car:

China crap: FMIC, Wheels, Tires, various Gauges (besides boost) & exhaust (I think X-force is made in China?)

Jap crap: POD, boost gauge & SAFC 2

Seems like there is an imbalance to the China-Jap crap ratio... :yes:

Suspension is stock so I'm guessing that counts as Jap as well?

    • Ahhh, I need the whole head unit. I definitely needed to roll back through and review your setup, ha ha! Neat setup they have going on. I just need a full double din head unit. But I want good and responsive. I might have to review what the likes of pioneer have out these days.
    • 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.
    • 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.
