hmmm either something dodge is going on or im getting paranoid about my car...

I live in a small court which is sort of out of the way and not off any main roads. I normally park the car out on the road in the no parking zone :thumbsup: (haha no plates!!) cause we have like 9 cars and no where near enough space to keep em all.

anyway... in the last few weeks ever since its been stickered up there have been shite loads of people coming in and checking it out (hmmmm maybe i should have put a 4 sale sign on it...) aging from primary school to teens and oldies, everyone asking the same thing to each other... "WHAT THE **** IS IT???"

up until now i havent thought much of it and thought it was kinda funny... but last night at about 12am i came home from work and came around the corner and almost ran over about 15 people! there were another 10 on the foot path walking out and another 5 on the other side walking away... all in their teens and male and female... so i quickly went and parked the car and came out to the court and everyone had cleared out.

after i got out the car i checked over it... albeit in the dark... and everything, thank god was in place as i had left it... BUT this has prompted me to never... ever... leave it out there again ;) i took the front bar off, took it for a quick fang and then parked it up the drive again on the front lawn right near where the ridgeback lives :D

what do you reckon??? im paranoid? or better to be safe than sorry.

Last thing i want while im organising its sale to Jairus is some ass clown kicking in a panel or smashing the windows to steal the 5 gauges that are in it and what ever else they can pry out.

Better to be safe than sorry, most definately.....who knows what type of kids they are, or could be.

To get an idea of what they're doing there and what they are saying.....If you can be ****ed, lie in the back seat one night with baseball bat or something with a hockey mask and let them come back again....firstly hear what they're saying so you can get an idea of what they're doing there....admiring the car, or wanting to do something to it.....then the rest is upto you....not too sure what i would do in that type of situation though...lol....just an idea. (or maybee set up some cameras)...im sure theres many more ideas out there if these activities continue.

Steve.

no idea... no one really stopped to ask his name.

thats what you get for crashing a party and causing trouble... he was missing quite a few after that... its not a whole one... just a small bit of one :thumbsup:

um... are the stickers from banzai still on there? coz they might just be like "pwoah hey this is the car from banzai... retspec" you should put up p sign that says "this is a professionally built drift car... more info at www.skylinesaustralia.com or... www.superfunhappysliders.com"

    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
