DAM! that baby blue chick is H0t!

Yeah she was dressed in a TIGHT silver costume for Audio Com on Saturday! she was quite nice and i think she knew it after nearly every single guy getting a photo with her!! :uh-huh:

The costume was skin tight so i will let your imagination run rampant from there!! :)

RB20Lagwagon: Yeah sounds strange for me to buy a mod just for the show...i wasn't thinking about getting them before hand as i wanted to go to Sydney for a week but as mentioned i didn't feel that my car was good enough so i went all out! half of mods got done which made me happy but some didn't...still morre HP is always good not just for shows.

People have always said why don't you spend money on holidays or sumfin my answer:

1. The way the world is now i am kinda on edge...I was actually thinking about going to bali again but maybe not now...

2. When people go on holiday they enjoy it for a week...then reminisce how good it was...i can enjoy beating V8's everyday and cruise in my baby any time i want!

I want to buy a house as my 1st priority but then fun car stuff comes along. but now i sooo wanna move out and rent!!

hey 25GTT saw ure car at the show.....sweet man...

but didnt see u or anyone coz i dunno anyone...:)

I was actually lookin out for you and everyone.... I even Painted a sign that said "BAM BAM"....nah not really but thought it sounded good...

There was also one that was similar to mine at the front door. Sorry if your reading this dude but i can't remember your name. All i know is that you do awesome deals at Auto One for me and will be back in the near future! LOVED the LED air fuel gauge on your skyline!

One question i wanted to ask everyone is what did you think of the motorkhana? did you all check it out? Did you guys see the old wagon with the GTR engine in it? That guy was a pretty funny driver giving the wagon HHHEEEAAPPSS!!

What, that white R30 Skyline wagon with no lsd has a RB26DETT in it? I thought it was a RB20DET. That guy must have some fun in it :)

I thought the motorkhana blew goats. Couldn't have designed a slower course if I tried. Might have been challenging for the competitors but it was insanely boring as a spectator.

Yeah pretty sure it was a GTR engine...I KNOW i saw 2 air filters so i thought twin turbo more than likely GTR....also sounded pretty throaty and deep aswell......hmmm you could be right but I am SURE i saw 2 air filters........ Oh also he has a GTR badge on the back....now a days that don't mean much though especially 2 weekends ago when me and my gfriend parked in the carpark at perth train station and saw a white suzuki swift with stickes over it and i nearly fainted when he had a GTR sticker...if only i had some scissors there to scratch it off!!

:uh-huh: and the MC course was way bay as.

wonder if that s2000 got on the dyno??

AW11: I don't know if you mean the red S2000 from the JPR stand but that did go on and got 155.8HP at the treads. Apparantly another one (silver one i think) went on later and got 10HP or so more. Not sure on that one.

I met a few skyline owners at the show and I may have met some of you but I'm not really sure. I was the blonde guy working at JPR. Looking forward to meeting you all in person at the next crooze!

Take it easy all

hehe and then remind them about my fuel line hehe

Hi Guys,

Sorry, I can't pass messages on. I was only helping out a mate for the weekend (Shannan) who works there full time.

Wish I could pass it on tho and find out the story behind the pissy events at classic rally or this so-called fuel line.

Sorry dudes

AHAHAHAH!!! Where did you little buggers get that from??

HHAHAHA!!! how funny! i didn't think that one would get out! where'd ya get it? Yeah the one on the right is my gfriend. The other 2 girls i do promotions with. As i was saying to you guys before Kate was meant to be doing what those promo girls where doing for Sony but i kinda said she could spend one day doing that and one day bein a good girlfriend and spend some time with me:lol:

Damn Strich9ine i thought i might have caught your eye for a sec :)

Guest GR33DyMANGO

haha... thats classic. never thought i'd see those sony girls again.

i saw them those sony shirts 4 $10 so i thought.. might as well grab one. the brunette asks what colour i;d like.. there was black (what she was wearing) or white(what the blonde was wearing) .. i looked back and forth a few times with probably the cheesiest grin.. and ended up picking the shirt off the chick that looked the best.:) haha..

the brunettes pretty good lookin'!

ps. you're a lucky man 25gtt:cool:

    • This. As for your options - I suggest remote mounting the Nissan sensor further away on a length of steel tube. That tube to have a loop in it to handle vibration, etc etc. You will need to either put a tee and a bleed fitting near the sensor, or crack the fitting at the sensor to bleed it full of oil when you first set it up, otherwise you won't get the line filled. But this is a small problem. Just needs enough access to get it done.
    • The time is always correct. Only the date is wrong. It currently thinks it is January 19. Tomorrow it will say it is January 20. The date and time are ( should be ! ) retrieved from the GPS navigation system.
    • Buy yourself a set of easy outs. See if they will get a good bite in and unthread it.   Very very lucky the whole sender didn't let go while on the track and cost you a motor!
    • Well GTSBoy, prepare yourself further. I did a track day with 1/2 a day prep on Friday, inpromptu. The good news is that I got home, and didn't drive the car into a wall. Everything seemed mostly okay. The car was even a little faster than it was last time. I also got to get some good datalog data too. I also noticed a tiny bit of knock which was (luckily?) recorded. All I know is the knock sensors got recalibrated.... and are notorious for false knock. So I don't know if they are too sensitive, not sensitive enough... or some other third option. But I reduced timing anyway. It wasn't every pull through the session either. Think along the lines of -1 degree of timing for say, three instances while at the top of 4th in a 20 minute all-hot-lap session. Unfortunately at the end of session 2... I noticed a little oil. I borrowed some jack stands and a jack and took a look under there, but as is often the case, messing around with it kinda half cleaned it up, it was not conclusive where it was coming from. I decided to give it another go and see how it was. The amount of oil was maybe one/two small drops. I did another 20 minute session and car went well, and I was just starting to get into it and not be terrified of driving on track. I pulled over and checked in the pits and saw this: This is where I called it, packed up and went home as I live ~20 min from the track with a VERY VERY CLOSE EYE on Oil Pressure on the way home. The volume wasn't much but you never know. I checked it today when I had my own space/tools/time to find out what was going on, wanted to clean it up, run the car and see if any of the fittings from around the oil filter were causing it. I have like.. 5 fittings there, so I suspected one was (hopefully?) the culprit. It became immediately apparent as soon as I looked around more closely. 795d266d-a034-4b8c-89c9-d83860f5d00a.mp4       This is the R34 GTT oil sender connected via an adapter to an oil cooler block I have installed which runs AN lines to my cooler (and back). There's also an oil temp sensor on top.  Just after that video, I attempted to unthread the sensor to see if it's loose/worn and it disintegrated in my hand. So yes. I am glad I noticed that oil because it would appear that complete and utter catastrophic engine failure was about 1 second of engine runtime away. I did try to drill the fitting out, and only succeeded in drilling the middle hole much larger and now there's a... smooth hole in there with what looks like a damn sleeve still incredibly tight in there. Not really sure how to proceed from here. My options: 1) Find someone who can remove the stuck fitting, and use a steel adapter so it won't fatigue? (Female BSPT for the R34 sender to 1/8NPT male - HARD to find). IF it isn't possible to remove - Buy a new block ($320) and have someone tap a new 1/8NPT in the top of it ($????) and hope the steel adapter works better. 2) Buy a new block and give up on the OEM pressure sender for the dash entirely, and use the supplied 1/8 NPT for the oil temp sender. Having the oil pressure read 0 in the dash with the warning lamp will give me a lot of anxiety driving around. I do have the actual GM sensor/sender working, but it needs OBD2 as a gauge. If I'm datalogging I don't actually have a readout of what the gauge is currently displaying. 3) Other? Find a new location for the OEM sender? Though I don't know of anywhere that will work. I also don't know if a steel adapter is actually functionally smart here. It's clearly leveraged itself through vibration of the motor and snapped in half. This doesn't seem like a setup a smart person would replicate given the weight of the OEM sender. Still pretty happy being lucky for once and seeing this at the absolute last moment before bye bye motor in a big way, even if an adapter is apparently 6 weeks+ delivery and I have no way to free the current stuck/potentially destroyed threads in the current oil block.
