are you all laughing as histerically as I am?? Awesome thread.

1.) Chickys love the V8s mate. The 16 yr old teeni girls love the skylines.

The older women are the ones who want the V8s... cause the guys that drive them are men.

She doesn't look to old to me? LOL! hope you didn't buy that V8 to 'pull chicks' cause i don't think it's working for you bro

Taken from another forum

I've been researching Holden for quite a bit now, and its just making me hate them more and more. For those of you who wish to spout fact whenever somebody gives you that 'Ford Sucks' bullcrap; perhaps we should be discussing Holden's engineering skills?

1986: They needed a 6 that ran on unleaded. They didnt know how to make one. They bought Nissan's RB30 instead.

1988: Right they have a VL/Opel Monza that they have made to look bigger by turning it into a VN. Now they needed a new engine again. They still didn't know how to make engines so they asked Buick to send us some V6's. Were they shocked when they took them out of the box and the instructions said "For front-wheel drive applications only". Not to worry, some shoddy pipe reworking and a new clutch housing will fix that.

"OK. Now we need a four-speed auto, too" Again, they had to source them from the US and decided to get probably what I believe to be the worst auto I have experienced in my life.

1997: OK So they decided to grab the Omega platform because it came with free IRS. Little did they know that most manufactures stopped using trailing arms a LONG time ago. Not to worry. The Volkswagon Beetle look is sure to become popular again.

1999: "Damn this infernal 5.0L. We keep adjusting the fuel mixture but cant get anymore out of it. Let's get Chevrolet to send us some of their left over LS1's." They obviously were not too concerned about any issues relating to alloy engines.

That about sums it up.

PS: This isn't brand bashing at all. Its simply facts, guys. I can't see why we can't discuss the competition in whatever light because if at the end of the day, Ford make a better product.

So if we end up mixing 172 GM company's worth of parts, we'll end up with a Holden.

I call it Confetti.

    • 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.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
