we have a guy is S.A who works on the IT Helpdesk.

He has no arms and picks up the phone with his feet, rests it on his shoulder and then types up the ticket

I expect he uses a headset most of the time but it's amazing just the same

the picture above reminded me of him

Yes i will be Supreme Leader!

When im dictator everyone will start on a bike, if you survive 2 years you have earned the right to drive.

:laugh:

I feel the same but a in a truck, everyone should experience it, I swear it will make people more observant, the amount of tards I have to deal with everyday is ridiculous. Edited by gtr judd

Get your L's and I'll give you some driving lessons. I got my HR at 19...7 years ago, if I can't teach you a thing or two no one can lol

Have you driven a truck before?

in NSW, dont need ls to start learning.

so long as you have car licence, and teacher has held truck licence for over 2 years, go for gold.

So I'm putting together a rough plan on what I will need to get my R34 to around a safe 250-280rwkw on a low boost and be a true flex fuel car.

What do you guys think, am I missing any parts or do I have any prices wrong?

I'll be trying to find second hand parts for not so important things like exhaust and intercooler but for the injectors etc I'll be buying brand new this time around.

ECU: Adaptronic = $1100

Turbo: High Flow = $900

Injectors: 1000cc = $650

Coil Pack: Split fires = $450

Fuel Pump: Walbro 400L = $180

Intake Pipe: Metal Pipe = $200

Flex sensor: GM sensor = $300

Intercooler: Return Flow = $500

Suspension: BC BR = $1150

Clutch: KB Clutches = $450

Tune: DVS JEZ = $1700

Rough Total = $7850

Bryce I'm calling you out here because you are going down the same road haha

On the motorsport thread, people have said the BC suspension is cheap, and performs like a cheap one.

Id say they would be fine for the street, but real good stuff is faster on the track.

I guess it depends on what you want to do.

Ps: i went around Wakefield for a couple of laps... so now im a racecar driving expert. :laugh:

Not sure how your ECU works but you might need IAT sensor and MAP sensor. Unless if you want to tune with MAF which is restricted up to 250kw with Z32 ones.

Spark plugs

Dump pipe (JJR $215)

High flow Cat (100CELL has least resistance, could get the venom ones on ebay $250)

Turbo lines too but not essential

Get a boost gauge. oil temp gauge know whats going on with your temps at all time. But may not be necessary because if the adaptronic is like a vipec it will probably go into RnR or do something to stop it going on.

you'll need a MAC boost control solenoid. Get the ECU to control the boost and never worry about changing it.
Depending on the size injectors you get you may need a new fuel rail and pressure regulator but the stock has been proved to work up to +400kws.

Adaptronic does use a map sensor so I can ditch the AFM for this application.

Exhaust will be a JJR but in going to make sure it matches the gasket. I hear they can have some good/poor quality.

As for the BC BR's they will be fine for the street application and occasional track day that I will probably do.

Already also have a greddy profec 2 boost controller which I'll try use depending on what features this adaptronic have. I still have to work out if DVS feels comfortable about tuning with that or if he recommends something different.

Also go the 100cell cat exactly what you recommended a venom one of eBay a few months back;)

Yeah Ohlins and Bilstein ftw if I had money but good luck buying those. Without stressing out your wallet. BCs are pretty good for a budget and pretty comfy for street . People have driven mine and think it's a lot softer than theirs Huon etc are my witnesses.

I'll possibly use the Scotty porn pipe again and buy one of your stock ones Rob to use on the 33. The pipe needs to be modified a little by Scotty though because it doesn't fit up to factory air box and the hoses run too close to the engine.

Fingers crossed the car might come with some secret goodies but who knows

I can provide.

The PORN pipe Scotty made for me does fitup to stock box with the hose ports slightly different to yours.

I'm sure he can tweak it. Or just get a freshy and sell yours to Chris. :thumbsup:

    • 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.
