Should've asked him today - saw him with a bunch of guys at Ikea in Moore Park. Out of all places in the world you wouldn't expect to bump into him at a small cafe inside Ikea? LOL.

Ikea: It's all about the Swedish Meatballs, baby...

You should have said Hello, I don't bite - well, not normally... :cheers:

Hows the rebuild going mario.

Not good. ANDRA just ****ed us - again.

It appears that the engine parts we have just had made have been rendered useless - because ANDRA made us a promise that they couldn't (or never intended to) keep.

It appears that they intend on banning all leaded race fuels as of June this year, so we went through all the hassle of getting the ELF124 sorted, new engine internals designed, only to be told that we probably won't be allowed to use it...

So, no idea what is happening now. Welcome to drag racing back in the '50's...

Mario.

Mario you are a TOOL its not ANDRA it's the goverment just like leaded fuel at the servo

You are the only tool here - for talking about shit you have no understanding of.

Were you there when the agreement was made?

Were you there when the payment was made?

Were you a party to the discussion for the santioning of the fuel?

ANDRA made promises (and also charged people) to sanction this fuel. They took money and made promises that they couldn't (or didn't intend) on keeping.

ANDRA is quite adept at laying the blame at someone elses feet (in this case, Environment Australia) but the fact remains - they knew what the hell they were doing, they knew what they were promising was not possible - yet they misled people (like us) into paying them what amounted to extortion in order to sanction a fuel for use that they knew wouldn't be worth shit in a little over 6 months.

In future, keep your retarded opinions to yourself - twat.

Mario.

GTR700 is using Motec M800 Ecu with every addon possable.

GTR700 is also having traction problems which is there current limiting factor, The 8.2 sec run was done at 66% of max power so there is still alot more left to go.

      What accelerator cable can be used with greddy plenum

      By Duncan · Posted

      I was 99% sure the standard one is long enough to get there, you might just have to change the throttle orientation. If not, I remember someone having used an r31 cable instead, but that is probably harder to find than r33 by now...

      HELP   Hey all, Is there an accelerator cable from another Nissan that can be used on the R33 GTST RB25DET with a Greddy forward facing plenum?  Thanks in advance  Rob

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      Or do we think it was installed to give 1 bar of boost max, all day, everyday?

      RB26DETT Sketchy boost mod?

      By ARB26 · Posted

      So could it be assumed it has been installed intentionally with potentially a power FC boost controller kit?

      What should I do next to hold the head on

      By Gareth87 · Posted

      Had my rig on Matt's dyno at PITS the other day. After a few years between tunes I added a few sensors and swapped intercoolers. Result. 553hp at 26psi. Not bad for an FJ20 that was built in 2007. The problem.. It filled the overflow bottle on hard runs which leads me to believe the head gasket isn't sealing. I have a coolant pressure sensor which was reading cap pressure at 22psi and occasionally overrunning to 23/24 psi on deceleration after a pull. It was not spiking. It has arp2000 head studs and a cometic gasket. As its been 18 years in service, I pulled the engine out and head off. Everything looks good but we obviously have an issue. Where I'm at.. Years ago I had the same issue, I checked the stud tension and they were all over the place. Some at 60 to 70 and some up near 90. I nipped them all to 100ft lbs and this stopped the water push until now. I believe this compromised the gasket back then. What do I do? 2 options are..  1) I bought arp 625+s, which I could put in with a new gasket. Thinking Kameari this time, reassemble and try again. 2) strip the block, get fire rings machined in with copper gasket and try that. I do not want to push it more than 28 to 30psi. I think the turbo will be out by then anyway. (G30-770). My other concern is the long term ability of a copper head gasket. Are they streetable for years? I feel like a new gasket with the new studs will probably suffice, but I don't know. Any thoughts welcome and advice on copper gaskets and fire rings. Thanks!
