you must be so close minded, everyone knows the sas is full of shit but there's also alot of quality and individuality, unfortunatly its not going to please everyone but these events also have to be supported to make sure the car culture lives on.

lol.. been called a few things.. never closed minded. Can see how my post implies that I am.

I suppose that everytime this show is on I have friends and colleages who go and always say there is nothing to see. So I just write it off. I would rather go down to watch GT production or something else.

Sure they are part of car culture, but not a car culture that I am part of. I would rather go to the track and support that part of car culture, which I am part of.

Make sense?

also.. would a close minded guy buy a plane ticket and go to japan to see tokyo autosalon?

hehe dude, your first post has the word "where" where "were" should be.. :(

mines not gonna stay the way it is now more paint work and some nice subtle effects are gonna be done for final battle

retrotec - im dying to drive it lol

i will drive it and i will drive it often

carlo dude,

i dont think you're being "close minded" i just think, as you have admitted yourself, you're being unappreciative of a different car culture - not that there is anything wrong with that (its okay Shonen, i'm sure Carlo thinks your meguirs red isn't ricey....;))

however, comparing Autosalon to TAS is like comparing apples to oranges and i do think this is a little....ummm how do i put it ........ :D wrong???

of course you are going to like TAS because you're into performance cars and thats what TAS is mostly about - but, at the end of the day TAS is just a glittered up and glorified aftermarket car parts bizarre for manufacturers like HKS, Apexi, Jun, etc etc under 9 big roofs!!!

ie. i dont see the difference between reading an Option magazine and walking through 9 halls of stationery cars apart from the fact the cars are alot cleaner and there a shitload more race queens!!!

in any case, i dont quite agree with what you say about autosalon - i do believe the autosalon cars ARE bleeding edge for what THEY WANT to achieve (and this definately extends to more than a pretty paint job) and its certainly the same case for the cars at TAS, where the manufacturers cars are definately bleeding edge in what THEY want to achieve (read: promote). i mean, fark. a carbon fibre bodied Evoluion 8 Lancer from HKS....drool!!! i might not buy the body kit, but fark, i'll buy a turbo off them! :)

oh come on give me a break......its black right now.......my next car will be black also.....

I mean if im going for a full respray anyways might as well try a different colour......

hahaha youll change your mind once you see it in candy red....

If I DO stay black....its not going to be a nissan black.......there is a paint called "Special Black" and its the BLACKEST black you can buy....no blue or purple tinge just pure black.

    • Don't even try to run it on the stock ECU if you're going to have the boost controller bring boost above ~10 psi. I've already told you that. If you use the Nistune ECU, you will need to CAREFULLY read the available documentation for Neo tuning, and read some threads on the Nistune forums, to discover the various things you have to do to prevent the ECU from going bananas when the boost is too high. The is a table associated with th boost sensor that must be modified to prevent it from shitting the bed. This is just one of the things that you will need to do to the tune in Nistune, because the Neo turbo ECU will be expecting to see a number of things (such as the TCS) that are not there, and you have to block the DTCs on those. It is totally not surprising to me that you are having the problems that you are, but the solutions to these problems have been known for >15 years. So just get it done.
    • Hi. Sry iam not a mechanic and iam not at the car atm so i dont know 100% but they told they measure those and even try to change those. AFM they have two. Coils are new a they have my old one too. Plugs too. ECU...we have 25 NEO stock and Nistune 25 NEO.   But i dont know if any one those could be the problem and why/if/what can cause this, Only thing they did not check is fuel...but that walbro 255 is new(like 1,5 years)... That fuel pressure gauge idk...but i let them know Any suggestions?   EDIT: how can they know if it is like you say he ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high? Tha car has boost controler
    • Can you clarify what you mean by boost cut, do you mean it misfires both when under load (driving) and when stationary and out of gear? Or does the ECU pull power when it reaches a specific boost level that is too high (boost control issue)? Does it occur at idle with no throttle? When you say "the ECU is OK", what ECU is it and why do you think it is OK? Have you used the NEO ECU, and if so do you have a MAP sensor attached? Same for the AFM, why do you think it is OK? Do you have any way to put a fuel pressure gauge on it (even just a mechanical one between the fuel filter and fuel rail)?
    • Hi.. Just another problem. So maybe you can help. I(my mechanic) done swap from my RB20DE NEO to RB25DET NEO. Everything is OK but we have a boost cut. Coils/Plugs are ok...AFM is ok. ECU is ok. I have Walbro 255 but it "changed" sound few months ago(you can hear it ouside) you did not hear that when it was new(maybe faulty?) Sooo...what now? What can cause this boost cut? It is even when you standing still...
