Righto:just quickly(as I'm rushing out the door to get to AutoSalon),here's the deal:"Nissan Skyline GT-R" DVD from Duke Video,usually about $39 to $49(at most places...)-$21 to SAU'ers in A.C.T.-you'll have to pick 'em up from me;maybe trivia night or Friday night cruise? Here's the blurb from Duke themselves:

"The original 'beast from the east', the Nissan Skyline GT-R is an icon for power, speed and advanced Japanese automotive technology. With straight-6 engines capable of being tuned to over 1000bhp, 4WD, intelligent torque-splitting differentials, rear wheel steering and enough electronics to keep a space station going, the R-32, R-33 and most recent R-34 models are mechanical 'tours de force'.

But what do they go like and what speeds are they really capable of? Our new DVD traces the GT-R's technical development and tuning options, and then puts you in the hot seat for several memorable rides. How about a lap of the old Nurburgring with 'ringmeister' Dirk Schoysman at up to 190 mph with drifting at 160 mph? Or a ride on a GP track in the ultimate racing Skyline - the Falken Tyres R34? If that's not scared you, an Autobahn blast in a 600 bhp Prospec-NISMO R34 should do the trick!

If you thought only ground-hugging 2-seater sportscars with names like Ferrari, Lamborghini or Porsche could be called 'supercars', think again!"

I own it(naturally...);anyone who want to commit to one,I need numbers NO LATER than Monday 4pm!! Takes about 1 week to get 'em here! Any qustions,call me on 0414 484 171. I'm off to A/S!

LoL...Canberra is expensive. I picked up (an original copy mind you) for 10 bux from a local market! :P

I'll assume you can get a genuine,or at least a pretty good burnt copy,from eBay or the like for less;if so-go for it. Or even your local markets-where I'm sure they sell genuine Rolexes for $50,too. That's your perogative. Besides,as first posted,this is offered to the A.C.T. SAU'ers;so maybe you need to organise an even more wonderful "group buy" elsewhere?!? Righto then;rant over...

For those who want the real deal,read on. These are new,genuine Duke DVD's,straight from the supplier to me. Warranty and all,they'll take about 3-5 working days to get to me from when I place the order. I'm about to have 6 days away from Canberra(no,Gus;you can't have the keys to the GTR or the Forester...),and I was going to place an order on Tuesday morning so they're here when I get back. Seeing as it's only Leech and SupaFly Skyline that've put their hands up,I can do two things:order two copies come tomorrow arvo,or if it's OK with Leech and SupaFly Skyline,leave this posted offer running until I get back,THEN place the order. What say you,gents? I don't mind either way. Oh,yeah:Auto Salon Sydney was pretty cool today...

Money on arrival is fine,gang. As stated earlier,I'll now put the order in next Tuesday(24th);probably see the DVD's on either Friday 27th or Monday 30th,I'd imagine(maybe sooner). If they're here on the Friday,I'll bring 'em out to our usual Friday night gathering,if not,Trivia night will be the go...OK?

    • It turns out that Setrab make a fan specifically for the oil cooler which is great and I've installed it with minimal swearing. I removed my 2x 12in push fans from the front of my aircon condenser and wired them into this. My main thermo fans kick on when I use the aircon anyway and would effectively already be working as puller fans through the condensor which is infront of the rad. The push fans (understandably) didn't really do much in the config they were previously in so now they're out. Now we're on to the "Oil fan doesn't really do much either!". Yes I'll duct it next if it does nothing in heavy use which it shouldn't. But hey, the object exists and fits great and is cool. Let me have this. The car is still in the "do my fittings leak oil now? do my wheels actually rub?" phase. I did a spirited drive on them and didn't hear or feel anything. Then I got back home and noticed there were grind marks on the inside of the rims, though I couldn't see where they were touching I got out the grinder and attacked the suspects. Note: I do not know how to use a grinder. Then I realised I had dragged my new rims across my concrete driveway before I did this drive. I didn't think I had damage at that time when I briefly looked...... but remembered this occurred after I did all the angle grinding. The grinding on the wheels in some very specific spots. It's not around the whole rim for example, which lines up with dragging it across concrete more than hitting a suspension component for even 1 full rotation. So everything is currently painted and taped up and I need to test it some more to see if it really IS rubbing, but from inside the car it doesn't feel like it is. In other news I attempted to do a before and after comparison of the heads/cam upgrade thing. Dynos lie, everything is in different measurements. Here is the data from the sandown back straight. Car go faster than before. Vroom vroom.
    • Here's my base ignition. +3 correction to redline when shooting water/meth which is always on. Looking at my old ignition table, I should be able to add 1-2 degree's next time I'm on the dyno.  Let me know your thoughts. 
    • Given what I know now - same haha, but this was 12 years ago with second hand 740cc Nismo injectors in my S15 daily, I was too busy hunting elsewhere for the issue to even look at the injectors, running through some cleaner was a happy coincidence haha
    • Not a terrible idea. But if I ever had concerns that my injectors were sufficiently dirty to be causing me a problem, they would be out of the engine and onto the actual injector cleaner/testing bench.
    • Run some injector cleaner through it I had a similar issue that plagued me for months, even tried replacing the cat. If one or more injectors are blocked up the ecu sees ping so pulls timing and makes the tune rich overall, you'll see black smoke coming out of the exhaust and like me assume it's running rich but it could only be one or two cylinders  $10 bottle of injector cleaner and the next time I hit boost it pumped out a huge plume of black smoke, cleared the blockage and then ran great, if that's not the issue it's only a cheap thing to try haha
