So any one else have any ideas even if you went to the party Saturday night you can all come along to see in the new year

At this stage there looks to be a party close to the bottom of the freeway to go to

so lets get this party started people

Ive noticed SA people are quite lately so louden up Everyone

Hope to hear from you all soon

We can offer a place (ours) for folks to meet and have a drink or 2, BBQ etc.

Quiet street with ample parking and no through traffic (safe for skylines)

Its kid friendly so partners and kids wouldnt be a problem.

Let me know if anyone wants it here (Tea Tre Gully area)

Come on Guys we need a lot more people to make this a massive new years

so cancel you existing plans and fill your tank and lets gets the numbers up so we

can make it a night to remember its not far away so lets get the messages up

lots of veiwing but a couple of posts only

If we cant make the numbers will have to cancel the idea!

Thankyou for your support and offer 4door sleeper it will be a go ahead if we can make up the numbers we are aiming for around 30 - 40 Imports to make it a killa night

:kick:

Danh, u finally get rid of the SC and go for turbo?

what turbo u are running?

can't wait to see yr car :)

thanks maxx

we will be experimenting on the turbo selection depending on the outcome

hopefull something that doesn't kickin suddenly (avoiding snap oversteer) and last up to 9krpm :D

I was hoping that it would be ready last week and then today but had the bad news yesterday. That's life sometimes....so no good christmas present for me this year unfortunately :)

A nice adjustable boost controller (AVCR speed/rpm vs boost settings) or play with the exhaust housing size. :D

I don't think I will be able to make it. I 'may' be working. :D

Thanks for the suggestion. The AEM EMS has these features inbuilt

It has boost control with VSS/RPM, varibale boost settings and traction control. However getting the hardware right rather than relying on the software is always ideal.

I will let you guys know how it goes once everythings are done. I was quite excited a few weeks ago when I drove an s15 with similar turbo (and a lower redline limit). It's a bit disappointing to talk about this atm...no sport car to play with during Christmas and new year ..... I guess I've been a bad boy and spent too much time on my car this year...so no christmas present for me :D

BTW Merry christmas and all the best for the new year humble SAU fellows :D

Sorry, group of us tried to get there but got too pissed on the way.

Lets catch up for cruise soon before the nationals on Feb 26th.

Under the influence of forced induction - who can resist?

Happy new year everyone.

    • Put a fuel pressure gauge on it. Replace the turbos. Probably completely separate issues.
    • What copper washer do you guys use on the bleeder bolts? The existing one I have I had no idea where to find it in a local store, I did buy some online but that are only 1mm thick whereas my old one is 2mm+ thick and when I put the new washer out and squeeze the top radiator hose I can hear a bit of air but not with the old one. Does this matter? The new one doesn't leak, but the inner diameter is a bit loose whereas the old one threads on the bolt.
    • Howdy all, after being out a few weeks ago on a spirited drive in my GTR I have 2 issues that oddly have appeared at the same time. Whilst accelerating quickly through the gears all of a sudden i’ve lost power at the top of third gear (below redline around 6000rpm) for no obvious reason.    From that point onwards the car has been running rich on idle, won’t really rev under load without a ton of black smoke and the odd backfire, and dying as a pull up to a set of lights unless I keep the revs up around 1500rpm. In addition when shutting down the car that same night (I was 10 minutes from home) I noticed one of the turbos was significantly noisy on wind down when shutting off the engine. After letting the car cool down overnight it starts up fine, although once it gets to temp the revs start to creep up and down, the exhaust is darker than it should be and it also sounds like it’s running rich (fat note) I’ve put a new set of plugs in it - no change, the old plugs all seemed OK with two of them being somewhat richer/fueled up than the other 3 with 1 being borderline. I’ve smoked tested the intake system via the front of the Turbos, found a split vacuum hose going to the factory boost gauge sender, which I have since replaced.  Also found another leak on the gasket coming off the rear turbo outlet, have also replaced this. After fixing both of these leaks - still have the running rich issue. I’ve also tried another pair of AFM’s - no change here After pulling off the front turbo intake pipes, there is obvious shaft play in the front turbo, which now hisses loudly on light revvs although I can’t see why this would make the car run funny even under idle. I’m curious to know why it’s running rich before I potentially replace/rebuild turbos. The car is completely stock <50,000kms  other than an exhaust. Oil and coolant are all clear. I haven’t bothered with coil packs as it looks like they won’t be the issue due to condition of the plugs. Any help appreciated as I cry myself to sleep!
    • No probs at all. I used to love trying to dig up obscure info for those in need where possible going back 20+ years on SAU.  I did have another look and couldn't come up with any closer match. I'm leaning towards those skirts in your first pic are custom fitments, cut down/extended or from another car entirely and modded to fit an R34 sedan. I would've thought someone in Japan had them and taken a photo at some stage over the last 2 decades but there's nothing. Someone out there must know surely.
