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.

      It’s definitely an import, the Aussie ones have reflectors in the rear bar, it’s also a turbo which none of the Aussie one were.    I remember back in the day I want a twin turbo z32 so bad and then I saw a 32 gtr and that was the end of that lol

      Same can be said for Subarus motors ha ha!   I like the 300ZX, I nearly bought a Z32 before I bought my first Skyline. It was going to be a project. Then I found out there was a bit of a dodgy title with it... As in, someone attempted to commit insurance fraud with it and there was now some dodgy legalities around it. So at 18 I walked away from it.

      The below is what the readings I had with the fuel pressure gauge which were correct. It seems like the issue is mainly during drive and not idle. I bought the new hanger hoping it could be the issue, perhaps I ruined something while cleaning, but I have not installed it yet since I have to wire up everything with the new plugs.

      Actually, that's not entirely true. It's also the same motor in the 1st gen Nissan Cube but they're rare as hen's teeth.

      Unknown sound similar to BOV on positive boost with partial throttle RB26

      Yeah it is always worth testing and balancing actuators out of the box, just set the pressure regulator on a compressor very low (eg 5 psi) and increase it slowly to see when they both move.....unfortunately while you may be able to adjust the length of the actuator rod to minimise any difference, the actual pressure they move from is not adjustable so you need a well matched pair. And yes, the VCAM is probably contributing; the earlier in the rev range they come on boost and the slower the revs build (I think your demo was in 5th), the more you notice it.  Driving at WOT through 1st, 2nd, 3rd etc you will probably never hear it as any shuffling starts and is over super quickly
