Okuike? Geezuz do you see many Inoshishi?? lol

I live about 5 mins walk north of JR Ashiya station, right next to Hankyu Ashiyagawa station.

One more question: what in the hell are you doing up there??? :confused:

Btw, I'm not Japanese.

im on homestay lol

yea **** man them inoshishi i got chased by one when i was WALKING home yea i should by a bike and get bike liscence if i can but im not sure how...

so where are you from in an australian....

you got a nice car btw.

They've got monthly events at Central Circuit, thats the closest 'proper' circuit to Osaka/Kobe, and theres always the good 'ol drfit down in Nanko. Alternitively theres the touge up in Rokko somewhere but I've never been there when it's on, I caught the end of a session about 4 years back but thats was it.... damned if I can find out where it is now though.

lol so your teaching in japan i guess? im learning japanese cant speak fluent yet lol

i need cash here im running low............anyone got an idea for a job

You're only 17 mang... a bit lacking in the life experience area, so teaching adults is out. Teaching kids is a possibility but at my school we only teach young ladies 20 - 30 year olds :P

You could hand out flyers? Do some busking? I'm sure if you wore some old clothes and played some Beatles songs on an old guiter you'd make a bundle...

the japanese think i look old so it works for me and picking up chicks is a bonus because i can say im 17/18 for school girls and the older girls can think im around 24lol

man they love the gaijin over here aye

but yea ideas for flyers/panflets ect im cool with that.

even cleaning or something i just need cash lol

you know if anything will be coming up soon?

i really want to buy my r32

so yea i need cash and some places to watch cars in action if anyone wants to help me!!

Yeah, I could take you around to a few places... but I've already got one guy from Australia dropping by on the weekend, he wants to go out to Nanko on Saturday night so I'm trying to tee that up as we speak. Tell you what, if I can organise something this weekend, and you can get down to JR Ashiya station and pay money for some fuel and toll then we can see some drift on Sat...

this may be a long shot but i heard of foreigners doing modelling and some extra work in tv adverts and what not... so might be worth a look if you are gonna be there for a while but the entertainment business can be a little shady i dunno...

or try private tutoring if you look old enough but with your english on the forum im not sure! hahahaha just kidding...

    • After using a protractor for an actually accurate assessment of what is required,  and by NOT using my uncalibrated eyeball I worked out I need a 25° silicone bend from the TB ro the MAF, but, my choice was either a 30° or a 23° (23° is a weird spec), so I grabbed the 23° one from Raceworks I also grabbed 1mtr of 3" straight from Just Jap, I needed 350mm, but they only had 300mm, or 1mtr lengths....meh Also ordered a 1/2" hose bulkhead fitting from fleabay, this has a smoothish mushroom looking head (they are designed for below the water line of boats) that will fit inside the bend, the hose bit and threaded bit looks to long, but nothing that a hacksaw cannot fix if required, the hose will then just get jamed on the threaded bit up to the retaining nut Fingers crossed and the unsightly amount of hose clamps will be reduced down to 4 once all the parts arrive 
    • Oil change does not trigger code 21. Code 21 is for coilpacks primary side connection. You can try to clear the code with a battery disconnect, hold down the brake pedal to drain capacitors through the brake lights with the ignition on for 10-15 seconds before you reconnect the battery. I have seen R35 coil conversion permanently cause this code with no ill effects so it might be the resistance it wants to see isn't quite right on one or more coilpacks. Could be inside the ECU, could be the harness, could be a coil. You can test it all if you want or just ignore until the car actually starts misfiring.
    • I forgot you have a Nistune ECU. Use Nistune to do all the tests I mentioned instead of faffing with 30+ year old electrical connectors. You can read MAF volts off that too, there are reference values in the service manual to tell you roughly what it should be in different conditions.
    • No. I think it might be the AFM. Hence the use of the terms "swaptronics", which implies the use of swapping out electronics for the purpose of diagnosis. It's about the only way to prove that a small/niggling/whatever problem with an AFM or a CAS or similar is actually caused by that AFM/CAS/whatever. A known good item swapped in that still gives the same problem is likely to be caused somewhere else. They're all the same. Spraying AFMs with cleaner is an each way bet between cleaning it and f**king it.
    • Oh wow! This might actually work amazingly. Do you know the ratio of the diff? I was told the only thing you need to make sure of is if the front & rear diff ratios are the same. Ours is a 4.083 Thanks!
