man, even with my busted fuel pump bam, I'd beat you :D

Hey Jas what exactly happened with your pump man?

I was on the rollers just before and after you (as you had to get fuel)

and all i saw was a you get on, do one run and then get off... what happened dude? is she alright?

I was going to come over and intruduce myself, but you looked busy at the time.

Best of luck pal,

God Bless,

Nate

Hey Nate,

My fuel pump, she went BOOM.

Thankfully it's been picked up now and hopefully there isn't too much damage.

Just organising replacing it at the moment. Unfortunately it's now eaten in to my safc2 budget, but whatever will be, will be (I'd have said it in French, but I've got no idea how!).

Next time just throw something at me, that'll get my attention!

Thanks for asking :(

Jason.

And hes even added it to his sig already!

Jason you went very quite when that happened huh! Fair enough...

Jason nearly 3 years ago when i got SLY i just started out with a SAFC and dump pipe and air pod.... 3 years later and $20,000 in extras including a fuel pump it wouldn't surprise me if you would need one further down the track anyhow...

it's starts off with an SAFC and finishes with Engine Rebuild, hi flow turbo Wolf 3d Ex Cam Gears.. thats just the tip of the ice burg..... included in that though is a FUEL PUMP..... my main point and what i said yesterday you will need one anyway later down the track..... especially when ya car starts makin 300+rwhp... and yes one day it will be making that much!!!

awww i missed Nate :( Was there til about 1:30 .... didnt put Niz on - if there's anything wrong with her i personally prefer to live in denial about it at the moment ;)

Sooooooooooooory Loz :(

I would have just missed you... i did see something black blur through one of the side streets just off Albany Hwy on my way there though... tisk tisk Niz :)

And Avram... sorry aging dude... we will meet again mwhahahaha :elaugh:

I had church which dragged out a tadbit longer than anticipated :(

Although Loz, you wil be happy to know that now i know what my car is pulling...i want MORE POWER (in a big booming voice) and the cooler is definately on the books for this christmas holidays... and if your lucky...and nice to me... i will do your piping for your cooler too ;)

Will see you on the cruise though.

God Bless,

Nate

ahh yes that wouldve been me :( Went for a beer with some mates after at Cheers then headed down for a bit of a solo coastal cruise :(

I want more power too :elaugh: although probably get me in more trouble with the law :(

Thanks Paul - beginning to think that it's never gonna happen!

Give Ant a kick in the pants (sounds like a nursery rhyme doesn't it) for me and forget about all the "prettying up" of the engine bay - he's got 4 weeks left to get it all back together and run in!

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
