dude, don't wind up the boost on the car until you've had a good tune. the car ran on high octane fuel all its life and is NOT used ot the poverty octane rating optimaxes at the pumps here.

Craig rang me n said he was gonna go over to check out the car and you were happy as, I asked him to let me know so I could cruise along too. Good to see you're happy with it. Now come to the meet at the whitehorse on tuesday and join the club beyotch!

PS how'd you jump the car at TOLL didn't you have a jumper pack with you?

Craig still has not come to check the car out yet... come round with him and check it out. Tell him to give me a call when he is ready because I want to get it complied ASAP. I only wound it up a bit... heheheh

I know I should wait for the tune but I was just looking at it all day sitting there. Sounds and feels like it is running solid (now I have the filters on). The clutch is VERY grindy but catches so shap and strong, that is what I need to get used to and the reason I stalled a gizilion times yesterday. My sister drove me down to Laverton and folowed me home...so she gave me the jump start (after running down to the shell and paying $35.00 for jumper leads) When turning onto the Westgate she made it through and I stalled (causing the block) I rang her on my mob and asked her to turn around and save me.

Tuesday @ Whithourse (no GTR) I will probably catch the farkin tram. Membership sign up OK that night?

apparently you're near Craig's office so if you want I can ask one of the boys to give you a lift in, or I can give you a lift if I'm there on the day.

As for membership signup, yeah we'll have forms on tuesday.

Will try to come over when Craig does.

      EFR7670 exhaust selection RB26

      By LegendGTR · Posted

      I'm looking for some real world experiences/feed back from anyone who has personally ran a EFR7670 with a 1.05 exhaust housing or a .83 I'm leaning towards the .83 because its a street car used mostly for spirited driving in the canyons roads. I"m not looking for big numbers on paper. I want a responsive powerband that will be very linear to 8000 rpm. I dont mind if power remains somewhat flat but dont want power to drop off on top. The turbo I've purchased is a 1.05, although the mounting flange T3 vs T4 and internal vs external waste gates are different on both housings, I not concern about swapping parts or making fabrication mods to get what I want. Based on some of the research I've done with chat gpt, the 1.05 housing seems to be the way to go with slightly more lag and future proofing for more mods but recommends .83 for best response/street car setup. AI doesn't have the same emotions as real people driving a GTR so I think you guys will be able to give me better feed back 😀

      Stock Airbox and Snorkle for RWC - VIC west

      Surely somebody has one in VIC. Have you asked at any shops?  Is this the yearly inspection or did you get a canary?

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By PranK · Posted

      This is where I share pain with you, @Duncan. The move to change so many cooling system pieces to plastic is a killer! Plastic end tanks and a few plastic hose flanges on my car's fail after so little time.  Curious about the need for a bigger rad, is that just for long sessions in the summer or because the car generally needs more cooling?

      7 Speed Auto transmission fluid change (Skyline, Q50, Q60, Fuga, Q70, A62 Titan and probably heaps of others including Navara...)

      By Duncan · Posted

      So, that is it! It is a pretty expensive process with the ATF costing 50-100 per 5 litres, and a mechanic will probably charge plenty because they don't want to do it. Still, considering how dirty my fluid was at 120,000klm I think it would be worth doing more like every 80,000 to keep the trans happy, they are very expensive to replace. The job is not that hard if you have the specialist tools so you can save a bit of money and do it yourself!
