Well would you look at that. Glad its gone to a good home.

Are you still chasing a hard pipe kit? My mate has one for sale. A full greddy one off a bnr32

[GH05T]

yeah i probably should get that sorted soon, got a link or anything?

I have narrowed an issue with an rpm hesitation i have been having down to the TPS so im getting that sorted tomorrow and i will also finally have a GTR back seat to go in (embarrassingly been using a gtst back seat up until now)

I'm gonna go on the SA GTR cruise this weekend to give it a proper drive, if the tps sorts the problem out i will get back to modifications.

[IcedTea]

How'd you go with the new TPS?

[GH05T]

turns out the other TPS we had was the wrong one, so to see if we could fix the issue we took the old one out and cleaned it up. testing it it does have a dead spot which we managed to get rid of, we tested all other sensors which were all good. put it back on.

now it has made it better but its still not right so we have ordered a new one anyway, its obviously just not right and there cheap so yeah.

interestingly it has created another issue, if i rev reasonably hard, say over 4000rpm and let the revs drop out of gear, it drops right down to stall, hoping this is just due to the dud tps, but we shall see when the new one arrives.

i did managed to take it for a good drive with some other SA GTRs which was good. car performed really well, the dead spot is between 2500-2800, somewhere in there so hard drivings not an issue.

also pulled my finger out and washed the GTR back seat i got from Josh and got that in. f**k i hated the gtst seats someone put in it.

yay



i know i probably shouldn't be that exited about a back seat but i am.

[WantGTR]

schmick seats!

that blue r34. omg.

[GH05T]

yeah martins vspec is quite porn, im amazed at how clean the inside of the wheels were. i was tailing him through the hills which was always gonna be fun.

[Adz2332]

if you dont mind me asking what did u pay for the gtr rear seat? and where did u get it??

[GH05T]

Paid 150.

Josh from forge performance hooked me up.

[GH05T]

ok been a while since i updated anything. spent a week in bali for my 30th which meant the car was off the road for more than 1 day which never happens, so i took the opportunity to finally get the subframe pulled out and replaced the much needed bushes thank again to josh at Forge.

the original bushes are knackered and the subframe movement was getting to a serious point.

check out how much movement there is. imagine this transferring through the diff on accell - decel.

so, new bushes arrived and the subframe came out. new bushes, new fluids and a happy rear end.

rear end is obviously much tighter and much nicer to drive.

also had the intake modified to remove the turbo shuffle thank god.

[GH05T]

also, i have been ...slowly... being lzy... but chasing down the slight hesitation issue and i have been blaming the TPS... which i still do. but i have also just discovered that my BOVs are venting to atmo.... so yeah... might need to just fix that up

[Burger]

Have seen 3 of these middle finger pics in one night. What's happening?

[GH05T]

JAFs pics just cause.

[Pearcey]

car looks wicked mate, love the plates!

[GH05T]

So i think it might be time i updated my sound system.

Why? Well my headunit melted in the summer heat.

And well.... these are the speakers i pulled out hahahaha

[WantGTR]

Where on earth did you park it?? I love how car audio is so cheap these days lol

[GH05T]

Haha, just at work. Shitty plastic on a cheap head deck. So i have bought the same head ubit i loved in my stag which was a really good media player that you could plug a massive hdd into and it also had a wicked clock

Also got a full set of alpine r type speakers, 3 ways for the rear and splits for the front aswell as a small 10" sub in a sealed box (for hard kick over droning bass) and amps to run the lot. Should be a bit nicer than..... well... nothing.
