Body looks ok, would have to see it up close to be sure.

A nice straight shell is always worth a bit, and good to have.

Fire damage looks superficial, no real damage, weird though it looks like someone made it run again, coilpacks, blue hoses etc, no soot on them.

Well.. Today marks one year with my liner! :O and might I add, what a great year it's been. Meeting heaps of great people that also share that rb passion! :yes:

How she was when she arrived into my hands.

Lots of small changes along the way. It has been a lot of fun. Lot's of learning to be had and plenty more to come. It's funny how the more you learn the more you realise you really know nothing at all haha :/

I'm pretty happy with how things are panning out. Big performance mod to come in the very near future :woot:

And some plans I have that are purely cosmetic. Then hopefully the spending might slow down a little.... :whistling:

It's been a good one and I'm looking forward to the next :D

Congrats Chris! You have changed her alot for the better in a year. Seems longer :yes: Nice Feeling though isn't it?

My 3rd Skyline Anni was the end of last year.

I bought her an Older Sister as a prezzy. :D

Wow.... i never thought about it, nearly 4 years for me, and i still feel like a newbie to skylines.

But when im working on it, i now know all of the nuts, bolts and screws. I dont have to organize them, i know where they go.

I think the variety ways to mod a Skyline make it one of the most interesting cars ive owned.

Hence the feeling that ive only had a small taste of the magic that is possible.

Man that's crazy. What's the latest news on ETA?

Latest ETA was 3 days ago.

Same as the previous ETA that was 3 weeks ago

And the ETA before that was 6 weeks ago

I think I have been given about 4-5 ETA's and all have not been met.

Huge holdup with paperwork for DOTARS from what they are saying

    • Given you're running a 2.8 and my 2.5 is not really like for like, I suspect there could be a bit more timing you could give it. What is the kW yield per degree you're putting through it? Here's my E85 map to give you an idea, where it was I could still get another 3~4kW per degree thrown at it.  
    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
