Hello everyone.

As you may, or most likely may not, have noticed, i have been away from these forums for a long time. Reason being fay and i have been planning our engagement for a while and between fay, work, and world of warcraft, i dont have much time to do much in terms of cruises and meets etc (but i will be back in full force soon).

so anyway, an update.

we are getting engaged this saturday in front of 250 people (big family ay?)

we are also finalising our house plans and should be building the next year on the farm (how quaint).

i have a lvl60 rogue woot ftw !

Update me people, tell me what you have all been up to, on and off the forums. what has the club been up to? what have you done lately to create an impact in this world? or in your country....or suburb...house....or room.....yeah.

cool :)

Congrats to you both Mike. Glad you waved coming out of Bluestone when I went past in the new purple GTR33 a while back but the look on you face was priceless (Sh*t who's that? wavey)

Been thinking we should crank up another Sunday Brekkie at the Lakes so maybe in about 2 weeks. I should lob by work to catch up.

So what's new? The GTR which I really enjoy, some surgery for both myself and Nelly so now I can walk and Nelly is improving. Just bringing that day of leaving Vic for Brisbane closer. Also new username thank to Shan.

I was supposed to be in Iraq now but the back injury and surgery stopped it. Likewise the moving home to Qld.

The GTSt is in need of a new motor so It'll be a 26TT. The 25TT conversion was nice until the front turbine died and sucked back into the front 3 cyl leaving a dead car.

Other than DECA, not a day racing this year because of the injury so have to get back out for a bit of fun before going around Xmas.

All the best mate. You and Fay have a great day.

Sorry late reply..was in Canberra.

Yep, went the low budget GOLGO copy with more go than show ........ not as nice overall but the price was too good to refuse.

It's not as easy to drive around town as the GTSt due to extra weight and lower compression but it can be heaps of fun.

I'll get something going on the Sunday brekky for maybe this weekend or next weekend. I'll check the weather.

    • The SS button head cap screw on the back? If so, good to know. I presumed it was there for basic assembly and nothing more. 
    • Hello, everyone. I'm new to the forum. I have a 1989 Nissan Skyline R32 GTR. I have lost all power to the interior, including AC controls, the gauge cluster, turn signals, and windows. Stuff that still works includes the horn, brake lights, radio, and headlights. All fuses, in the interior and exterior boxes, tested good.  It starts and runs fine, just with no gauge power or anything stated above. No warning lights either. Things that I have tested: - Fusable link tested fine - No other fuses blown - Alternator good - IGN switch tested fine - With my power probe, I can backfeed power through the IGN pin to the plug on the back of the gauge cluster, and everything comes back on.    So my theory is something on the control side that sends the ignition power through the system isn't doing its job, or a wire is broken. (I would think that it is the ignition switch that would do that, but who knows?). The ignition relays don't fire (all relays tested good). So what tells them to fire other than the IGN switch?  I would really appreciate it if someone had some insight on this. I have tons of hours into this; I don't want to give up in defeat! I have the HD wiring diagram, but having all those wires laid out like that on one sheet of paper makes things pretty hard to follow.  Thanks for reading, and thanks for the replies.  Where should I look next? Thanks.
    • Install a MAP sensor pre and post throttle. Best data you could have for NA, then play with the bends and/or air box and see how much of inflection is created at WOT on the plot.
    • And gone to a new home  
    • The car remains in paint jail. I am now pretty convinced that the whole "RB25 Airboxes are kinda limiting to ~300kw" could be a thing. Also saw a good video from Engine Masters: (Sorry for FB link) (https://www.facebook.com/watch/?ref=search&v=761771519471924&external_log_id=c10bcbb6-2c39-4ff3-9240-287e9921fde6&q=Cold Air Considerations) Where they tested Pod Filter sizes and kept adding bends to a LS3 on an Engine Dyno to find if bends caused power loss. It's a good video worth watching - They did lose ~25hp from making an intake which had 3x90's and a 120 degree. They only lost maybe 1hp with a basic 90. I feel that by sealing up my airbox I have: 1) Created the same restriction a stock airbox would have. 2) Created a very convoluted set of intake 'pipes' by forcing all the air through the ducts. So I am pretty confident I'll be going full circle and have a huge hot air intake pod and actually see a benefit. The air does *not* stay hot once it gets flowing, aided by the ducts, and the pod can then pull air from anywhere. All the posts of yore talk about the stock airbox costing 10-15kw at 300kw+ but you know what? I f**king would very much like that 10-15kw and I remember my own pod filter in engine bay experiences. Turns out the GTT Reo and Headlight brackets really don't allow you to mount GTR items, no matter what the internet says. Various brackets have had to be made up to actually make it fit right for the front bar. Also some idiot mounted a 3L Accusump right where the bumper wants to go, so that has had to be 'relocated' To where, I am still not sure, but it's supposedly mounted in the pictures and I can't see it.
