What sort of question is that...

I say all our cars are big head turners... Just for dif reasons..

Sorry, but my opinion.... you can come barging into the fourms and start asking for the best car here.

Have a look at some of the pics, then pm them and ask if they can take you...Which all of us are kind enough to say yes.

Clearly i have annoyed quite a few of you by making enquiries for a formal car.

Sorry for any offence i have caused anybody. I tried going about getting a formal car in a nice enough way, so i thought anyway. But now im being accused of just barging into a forum and annoying people.

It was just a general question to see what was available to me & yes of course i would be willing to pay.

Anyways.........like i said, sorry!

Hey WetYet, dont sweat it.

It's fine mate. Best place to come looking for many great looking rides. Most of the guys here have done a fair few this year so far and prolly just getting a tad tired, like me.

I cant speak for all but I reckon most are doing 2-3 a week for the last cuppla weeks. A fair bit of effort if you consider we knock off work, race home and spend ages on the cars cleaning them. Do this s few times a week and you soon get over it.

Most of us love doing the runs as we see a lot of mates and a lot of good cars.

If you check the posts here you'll see a fair few asking, plus our freinds, family and other skyline owners as favours etc.

I have 2 next week but none the following week, I'm in the midst of trying to get work done and a tune on my girl.

I have a GTR R32 and is fine for the Job you want. PM me if your keen and we'll roll on the 13th.

EDIT: Offer withdrawn. No more formals for me after Wednesday this week.

PS. Suggest if you got the time check out Hawkers next week as we have a big number of lines doing that one. See one you like and speak to the driver. We always park afterwards and have chat.

Call me names but I have not charged nor received a cent.

Except two years back a girl offerd me s3xual favours - Nah she actually slipped a fiddy in the consol. We did a Photo session it was kind of neat she was keen on my ride.

Called me twice to go for another cruise with a freind of hers on the week end. Just loved the Skylines.

It'd be nice to be offerd fuel money cause it gets exy but thats not my motivation.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      By jtha7 · Posted

      Ps i found the below forum and it seems to be the same scenario Im dealing with. Going to check my ECU coolant temp wire tomorrow    From NICOclub forum: s1 RB25det flooding at start up Thu Apr 11, 2013 7:23 am I am completely lost on this. Car ran perfectly fine when I parked it at the end of the year. I took the engine out and painted the engine bay, and put a fuel cell with an inline walbro 255 instead of the in tank unit I had last year. After reinstalling everything, the engine floods when the fuel pump primes. if i pull the fuel pump fuse it'll start, and as soon as I put the fuse back in it starts running ridiculously rich. I checked the tps voltage, and its fine. Cleaned the maf as it had some dust from sitting on a shelf all winter, fuel pressure is correct while running, but wont fire until there is less than 5psi in the lines. The fuel lines are run correctly. I have found a few threads with the same problem but no actual explanation of what fixed it, the threads just ended. Any help would be appreciated.

I found the problem though. There was a break in one of the ecu coolant temp sensor wires. Once it was repaired it fired right up with no problems. I would have never thought a non working coolant temp sensor would have caused such an issue.

      Strange issue RB25DET wont start

      Hi sorry late reply I didnt get a chance to take any pics (my mechanics on the other side of the city) but the plugs were fouled from being too rich. I noticed the MAF wasn't genuine, so I replaced it with a genuine green label unit. I also swapped in a different ignitor, but the issue remains. I've narrowed it down a bit now: - If I unplug and reconnect the fuel lines and install fresh spark plugs, the car starts right up and runs perfectly. Took it around the block with no issues - As soon as I shut it off and try to restart, it won't start again - Fuel pressure while cranking is steady around 40 psi, injectors have good spray, return line is clear, and the FPR vacuum is working. It just seems like it's getting flooded after the first start I unplugged coolant sensors to see if its related to ECU flooding but that didnt make a difference. Im thinking its related to this because this issue only started happening after fixing coolant leaks and replacing the bottom part of the stock manifolds coolant pipe. My mechanic took off the inlet to get to get to do these repairs. My mechanics actually just an old mate who's retired now so ill be taking it to a different mechanic who i know has exp with RBs to see if they find anything. If you have any ideas please send em lll give it a try. Ive tried other things like swapping the injectors, fuel rail, different fuel pressure regs, different ignitor, spark plugs, comp test and MAF but the same issue persists.

      Freddy Plenum vs Genuine options RB25

      My return flow is custom and puts the return behind the reo, instead of at the bottom. All my core is in the air flow, rather than losing some of it up behind the reo. I realise that the core really acts more as a spiky heatsink than as a constant rate heat exchanger, and that therefore size is important.... but mine fits everything I needed and wanted without having to cut anything, and that's worth something too. And there won't be a hot patch of core up behind the reo after every hit, releasing heat back into the intake air.

      There is a really fun solution to this problem, buy a Haltech (or ECU of your choice) and put the MAF in the bin.  I'm assuming your going to want more power in future, so you'll need to get the ECU at some stage. I'd put the new MAF money towards the new ECU.
