Also got a photo of each spark plug


My opinion is plug photos are irrelevant except for checking last RPM.

ie- your plugs look richer on 3+4 but that could be just at idle.

I've pulled plugs after idling,cruising and on the highway turning engine off at 6k WOT and they look very different.

What plugs did you fit afterwards? Coppers or iridium?

Nah just did the comp n plug check

Yeah i do let it run a bit before i park up slow drive up the hill n cool down probably a good 2mins worth

Thay r PFR6A11 Laser Platinum Plug

Maybe 3, 4 could do a change coz of platinum worn a bit on edge but there not much KM on it.

Don't waste money on platinums.

Throw em in the bin
Sub 400hp I'd say bcpr6es coppers

Above 400 run 7's

Went to the city stage of the rally today. Way more skylines running in the mornings classic car section. Had some 32 33 34 gt-r and gt-st's Heaps better than the Malaga and Whiteman park stages. 5 hrs in very mild sun and strong wind. Curse of the ranga, unbelievably got burnt.

Yer i used deconjestion spray that solves bit of it but xray shows that i had a defomed canal that worked as a 1 way valve basically not allowing suction to top sinus (above eye) when landing which made alot of pain the worse I've is numb jaw striking pain down neck and numb collarbone with eye feeling like exploding that was every second swing landing for me.@manne I've read you have some similar issues

Yeah dude, Three weeks and i'm feeling much better but there is still a little bit of pressure around the nose/eyes that flares up from time to time.
I'm currently using a Sinus cleaner thing, it's a bottle with a thing you stuck up your nose and squeeze, and it flushes them all out.

Agree with you though, the Pain is UNREAL, I was knocked out for a good week, sleeping 20 hours a day, and then somehow, my chest became all messed up too.
Steroids, Sprays, Antibiotics and 3 and a half weeks, but i'm still not better.

Panicked when we got to Toodyay. Jack was like there is smoke coming out from under the bonnet. Wtf. Bonnet was a bit hot with no blanket underneath it was steaming the rain over the turbo off the top of the bonnet. Was just running up the hills in 5th and loading it up on the way there with the boost controller off. Used 4th for the hills on the way home at 14psi no probs. Different animal to the 4,9 5.8 5.0 and 5.4 lesson learned. Bugger all torque at low revs. think I will get rid of the 200cell catco oval and go to the venom 100cell with the 5" substrate. Tuning is beyond my nuts and bolts ability. Any thoughts? We ran sweet to and from Albany and did 1000kms pushing it hard. The original 100 cell metal cat copped a massive smash over a trainline bump at full speed the substrate came loose and flew into the exhaust melted and killed it and we popped a intercooler hose because it blocked the exhaust.(the weekest link) have swaged pressure tested and redone all the tubes and hoses with a intercooler flush. Would I need to retune between replacing the cats? Any advise would be appreciated. Thanks.

I will come Eli!

Don't get me wrong she's running and pulling hard at 18psi still. All temps and pressures are normal. Just seems to have lost a bit at say 6000 to 7000 under full load? Trevs? Kizza?
Hows weekend for Everyone ? Next week Saturday - Any idea where we going to meet up before head Down to barbagello ? Cruisinnnnnn All
Together from joondalup ?

Whos going ?



Yeah 84 and I will be there, my mate wants to come with so I'm gonna be in the Prado

    • Impossible to remove the housing while turbo is installed on the manifold on the engine. So I have to do it anyways. I plugged it so there will not be any debris in there. Will vacuum aswell 
    • would a r34 gtr hood line up with gt/gtt stock fenders? after latch, front bumper and hinges are swapped for gtr ones? or would the fenders be too low or high in relation to the hood surface? ( I believe seeing somewhere that gtr front fenders use some type of riser for the sides, but do not know how that relates to stock gt/gtt fenders.)    
    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
