Yep have been doing a re-tooling. Feel guilty for the old sidcrome. Have had her for 25yrs, and was second hand then. Thought the kinchrome was pretty close to R33 gtr-lm spec championship blue.DSC_0290.JPG.2da6d7e527486b1461488b13ed0ee351.JPGDSC_0291.JPG.248a9ed41cfc8c91729f6b61c1a2269b.JPG

This a nice piece of kit

Hope the tools work the same in a different box. Might loose their experience? All the drawers undone for reasonably rude replies? Kizza?

Cant beat getting into a nice pair of draws, remember if there matching... she decided not you!!!

Absolute beast for home. My bro would love the Moto gp action. All my good stuff is at work. Home only gets the retirements. It's a pain when I think I'll just get the? Oh it's in bibra lake. A quick 50 minute jaunt away:-(

The box is too gd to have at work, some asshole will only scratch it. I keep most of my gd stuff at home, just take the gd stuff i need in. Ideal for working on cars at home.

Thats soo true leave a loose spanner around for 5mins n it gets flogged off.

My dream is to have a 1001pce tang toolbox at home and at work i find the 2nd hand shop ( deceased estate) not that bad as thay are old quality tools with rust on them dont feel bad if it breaks rusts scratched dents or go's walkabout [emoji4]

The best hammers I have are from my pops shed and a heap I bought off a old English fellow at the markets who was also a sheety by trade. They don't leave dents in sheet metal. Nice flat faces. $5 bucks each and we talked tin bashing and the Beatles for a hour. Learned my trade from a old aussie fitter and Turner and a 60yr old English sheet metal worker. He used to make panels for old cars on a English wheel and sand bags with a wooden mallet. Could pull any solid geometry out of his brain but couldn't explain it much. He just knew what to do:-)

Theres not many people like that any more

I knew one in Brisbane and worked for him for a bit. It was great watching him shape panels and massage dents out

Dad is a electrical engineer and ended up doing computer programing converting all the gas turbine and power generation from analouge to digital to harness the information. Watched him build a boat out on the patio doing all the solid geometry 3rd angle projection [/img]and patterns bending and shaping the wood when I was a boy. He got me into the Nissan's when they were racing the hr31 gtsr and the gt-r took over in 1990.for Jim Richards to win the championship.Was all ford's up till then. Cams put 200kg on the 32 and limited them to 1.3bar when the coswoth Sierra was running 2.8bar. Nissan ran a huge motor sport program in the 80's early 90's in Australia. Exa series bluebirds George fury etc. Fred Gibson motor sport wanted to run in Japan at Fuji and Suzuka but Nissan said no.we do not want to be embarrassed. Rwd switch off the line so wouldn't snap half shafts. 1 4wd setting for dry and 1 setting for wet. The fastest gt-r s in the world from Australia. Skaife and Richards recond up to 700'hp on full boost.

When the 1.3bar rule cam in nissan moved into multiple cylinder tuning.  Each cylinder had its own fuel and ignition trim. So when they had it all figured out they actualy made nore horsepower than they did befor lol and for the endurance races they knocked the boost back to 1bar. They could safley get 4000 racing kms out of there rb26 @ 800hp in the early 90s.....most of the time they ran in rwd only but in the wet they actualy configured it to run 60/40 front bias to gelp pull the car out of the corner instead of pushing it out. 

P.s, ur dad sounds like a legend!

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
