Just quietly at least XGTRX knows what he wanted in his car, and didn't start a 100+ page topic that could have been resolved very quickly.

But that's none of my business.....

Just love smugness in a man Anthony :wub:

I am glad XGTRX knew what he was doing, I didn't , but I hung in there and the results I wanted speak for themselves :wub: you blokes do not have to like it , I do and thats all that matters, lol

Just quietly, you must have something wrong in your head to read 100 pages of drivel that you obviously did not like, I start reading a thread and if I do not like it , I STOP READING IT, DUH!

Built 2.6 vs 2.8 Same duration cams Same fuel Same dyno and tuner Same turbo's Same ECU Not sure what you'd prefer.... I'll give you a guess which engine is which.. Carry on...

The beauty of a responsive big power stroker is you can still pretend it's heaps laggy with the throttle, if that's your thing. Can't pretend a lag monster is responsive...

There is definitely something wrong with you. I liked your post, but there is definitely something broken!

I find idiocy amusing... And that thread...

Seriously though you are effectively laughing at XGTRX why not just accept what he likes, and the fact you don't like it, and leave it at that? You are not in much of a position to comment on anything, hence my previous statement.

In fact isn't it the whole point being a car enthusiast? you do what you want for YOU and no one else. Many people probably think my car doesn't have enough power, i tell them it's a good thing it isn't their car. Anyone that knows me well enough knows i say "GTR's are supposed to have twins, if i didn't want twins, i'd buy a gts-t" yet the gains for singles are well known, hell my tuner even keeps telling me to go a single like a 6262 with E85, he laughs and thinks it's a waste of a good engine. Point is: everyone has a different opinion.

You enjoy your car, i'm not taking anything away, i'm sure it has been setup perfectly for what you want. But for gods sake have some respect for other people. Just because he likes a different setup (that you hated) doesn't make it horrible and laughable. Honestly how old are you mate? I would have thought by now you would have learned a bit of humility.

Shit I have to ask or I will die, how would you have fixed it quicker ?

I am sure it would have to be MUCH better than mine, it was hideous to drive and try it with Quad clutch in peak traffic for 1 1/2 hours and you will understand why I hated the heap of shit :bomb_ie:

I am putting up my old Dyno off the 2.6 so some of these blokes know what I call laggy, so they will know what I mean and why I tried so hard to get the car I wanted to drive.

Now, I showed you mine, show me yours!

Nothing to show. my -5 s setup was like any other -5 350kw dyno graph, nothing special, nothing different. TBH I have a real issue with dyno graphs anyway as dynos are basically tuning tools and the graphs only give info on wot in one gear, which really has no indication on how they perform in real world day to day driving. For what's it worth I pulled 123 mph with a f**ked transfer case and a slipping clutch and a 60ft of 2.8s, the power is there or there abouts.

The best dyno I know of is sitting my arse in the seat and experiencing the car not looking at some wot graph.

Where is xGTRx's dyno result?

Post it up and show us what we are missing.

When I get the TO4Z tuned I will put it up for shits and giggles.

Hopefully I have nothing till 4000 and then it goes mental. Thats whats important to me regardless of the peak power figure.

And I also need to block off the BOV as it doesn't dose enough at the moment.

:D

I never thought I would say this, but, you are an idiot. XGTRX seems like a nice bloke to me and how his car runs is his business. He has a bit of fun and a few digs about response in his posts and I/we dig back about lag, fun , not serious, joking , playing around ! Of course we have our preferences , duh ?

I care not about anyone elses car or how it runs , what KWs it is, laggy , not laggy , blue or green, well maybe I like some other colours better than mine. I do not give a crap if it is 20kw or 1000kw and I do not get jealous of other blokes cars. I ogle them because they look great and love reading some of the builds on SAU, so take a chill pill or maybe you need to up your medication??

Not good enough , I want to see how it runs now and experience the mental joy of lagging around Melbourne in peak hour, lol

This is the way to get off topic, not the other drivel , haha

      Rusty roof repair

      By MBS206 · Posted

      Hot tip, stop picking at shit. Live in bliss instead   From my recent experience in rust repairs, white it may seem to not go much further back, you'll still need to cut back a bit further.  From what I can see there, the outer skin, and the inner is rusted too. From what I can see you've got the inner one which is all structural, and window likely affixes too.   If tag Murray Calavera here, but my phone won't let me tag him, he'd probably be able to give the best advise.   I do know, welding roof panels is a right pain in the bollocks! Very heavy to heat distort the roof and warp it all.

      Some of the filler.   Also if I look under the top flap of metal it starts looking good quite close to the edge. I get the feeling it doesn't go much further.

      Rusty roof repair

      By PranK · Posted

      So, I finally started digging at the bit of my roof that was cracking and bulging a bit. Well, it was just thick filler that was covering some pretty bad rust. I didn't find the edges, I was too bummed to keep going.  There are a few holes as you can see. There was just so much filler but looks like no attempt under the filler to prime or use rust converter, just slapped filler on exposed rust.  Anyway, I'm going to take the windshield out and find the edges. I'd love to fix this myself as I'm pretty sure it'll be expensive to get done properly. I was thinking I could just get a cut piece from another E39 and just weld it in place as it would be the right size and shape.  Thoughts?

      This is the territory of the "Stage 1/2/3 Golf GTI/R" or otherwise off the shelf tune with (relative to before) minor mods. It's easier now. Downpipe and Tune and boom, big increases. Stage 1 OEM+ is where it's at. This is where the niche evolved into and it's really easy to see why. It's rare to even NEED to consider changing turbos or going to aftermarket ECU's or building bottom ends for more power. Stage 1-2-3 will get you a LONG WAY. Civic Type R turbo GR Yaris/Corolla Anything with B58 (MKV Supra/x40i) Anything BMW in General Anything Audi in General Any turbo AMG RenaultSport Turbo offerings Korean Elantra N/I30N Ecoboost Mustangs Focus RS? List goes on. I would argue in the future it won't even need to go on... M3P is pretty rapid out of the box...

      There is a way, but it's not with the same cars. You need to find the same vintage of car, that we had. Realistically, that was an affordable car with aftermarket parts around. So what people need to find is a car that had a decent base in its day, and can be modified. They're looking for a car year make of 2010 to 2015 really... Aus could have done it if Holden didn't fold as V8 commodores were cheap, and if Ford didn't get expensive thanks to COVID, then you could cheaply play with FG Barras. Realistically, those are just a bit heavier, four door skylines. I'm sure the US and UK have similar cars they could find.
