(owner of the yellow R34 GT-T "NISSAN" Plates) and have been offered what i consider to be a very impressive first year wage, so the wheels have now been put firmly in motion and im beginning just after my real estate couse Finishing toward the end of march, im going to have to get another car (need to spend about 12k apparently) and i'll be going out suit shopping first thing next week once i get back from sydney.

I'd also like to take this opportunity to thank so many of you for your help, advice and support over the last few months, especially Jayce, Erica and Richard! though you've all helped in one way or another, so a heart-felt thankyou goes out to all the members of SAU ACT for everything you've done for me and the support i've recieved in the last year and especially the recent months!!!!

Real estate??????

Good money, never see a shagged out real estate salesman, always on their 2nd million.

Shouting all those free drinks must have paid off!!

Of cause you realise that you have gone over to the dark side, insurance salesmen, used car salesmen, bankers, solicitors, etc etc there is no coming back, cursed forever.....lol.

And and and, the skyline has to go, its strictly BMW now, it's a tool of trade for real estate.

Congrats. get out there and sell some dirt or a hollow tree/cave/tent.

PS And don't quote me your new bosses R34, he's just in denial, he'll get a BM soon.

yeah beginning immediately as a full sales agent. so i think it will be a baptism of fire somewhat but once i learn the ropes i should be fine. its a pretty brutal business too, considering the ammount of people that are fighting for the houses, but for those of you that know me you'll know im a raging bull that dont take no guff from no-one (and by raging bull of course i mean im a pusycat......meow).

Congrats Andrew, rather than spending 12k on another car, fix the racing tape on yours and get a paint job, make the car look a million bucks, and you'll be sweet.

Oh and ill be in the market for a house soonish, hook us up with a good price?

    • The final part arrived today to un-clampify and simplify the intake Who would have though a 1/2" hose stainless bulkhead fitting designed for below waterline bilge pumps would be what I needed Test fit on a 3" offcut I had laying around to see if it would work, and it worked a treat All going well the intake will be on its "final version" tomorrow

    • Welcome to SAU, what are you looking at buying?
    • I checked the injectors again (1 and 2, since they’re easiest to access) to make sure they weren’t clogged. Even though the entire fuel system had been cleaned, I wanted to be certain. Everything looked clean, so I reinstalled and connected everything. When I started the car to confirm everything was okay, it immediately revved up high, so I shut it off straight away. I checked to see if I’d missed a vacuum hose or something, but everything was connected. On the second attempt, the car ran without the high idle, but I noticed a distinct “compressed air” sound coming from the engine bay. Tracing the sound, I pushed injector #6 forward slightly and the noise stopped — it turned out it wasn’t seated properly, despite the fuel rail being bolted down. While holding it in place, the car idled steadily without stalling and ran for over 5 minutes. At this point, I pulled all six injectors out just in case I hadn’t seated them correctly or dirt had gotten onto the O-rings. Unfortunately, I discovered that I had damaged 3 out of 6 injectors (the OEM 270cc ones) during installation. So yes, this was my fault. Since only the pintle caps were damaged, I’ve ordered a Fuel Injector Service Kit from NZEFI to refurbish them. In the meantime, I reinstalled my new injectors – the car now idles fine for over 15 minutes without stalling. I have not attempted to drive it so far. It’s not perfect yet, as it hesitates when the throttle is pressed, but it’s a big improvement. Unplugging the IACV with the new injectors idles at around 800rpm, even with the IACV screw tightened fully. But this is probably due to tune.
