Anyone know of a reasonably priced cnc machinist in Melbourne, not too far from the North?
Piece is about 400x300x70 that needs to be made up, but they will need to copy off the current manifold I already have

I thought you'd love triple J, what with drinking coffee out of jars and all


Insinuating I'm a hipster by suggesting I listen to a station with a most popular 100 countdown...

Didn't really think that one through did you...

But isn't that what a hipster would do, go against what is commonly thought amongst the masses? Individualism starts with one person Hamish

Rear engine buggie. The bonnet is like a coffin? interior carpet is persian rug. Made by the same company that produces the limo based on Cedric/Gloria... complete with the most adorable DIY limo fitout. including boot-mounted airconditioning.

Installed a firewall behind a 400/400mbps internet connection today.. was froffing 

Wonder if they'd notice me installing a PLEX server for streaming media to all my family and friends :D 

gloria got put on the dyno today. whopping 147kw lol. running super rich with the foot down (reason why it was on a dyno in the first place). gains 20kw across the rev range when leaning it out a bit, but those are only temp tunes with the scan tool plugged in. It reverts back once disconnected, so now people are working on trying to figure out how to make it permanent.

Apparently normal for jap cars to run rich? but this one is worse because (i/we suspect) custom dump pipe moved the O2 sensor across to get easier access to dump pipe bolts.
so thats 11psi oem. a few more psi, cut the fuel back a bit, see if timing can be adjusted... 170rwkw wouldnt be too shabby.

We have a commercial link that we pipe out of a data centre with a /24 of public ips. you can have almost any provider you want, you get bgp support for the public ip advertising and you can have how ever much speed you are willing to pay for (~$3-6 per mbit) depending on who is providing it.

    • 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. 
    • Not yet quite as bad as what we've seen a Jim Berry clutch do in an R32 GTR though when it decided to cut a chassis rail in half... Still very very gnarly and a great reason to avoid.
