couldnt find these weights on wheels today - saw mag, saw tyre, saw shockies, saw metal rods, saw springs, saw cobwebs, saw little plate on mag with 10/10/10 on it - but that was about it :(

haha yes it was meant to be subtle :( (and yes i do know the meaning of the S word) haha

Gee whiz old man - don't act like I'm the pain in the ass that I am - surely you knew that when you sold me a car?

Anyways, question is this: there is a shitload of piping on the GTR; balance pipes between the turbs, etc, etc. Makes working on the car tricky & ppl tell me that it is mainly for emission control - can you tell me what can go & what needs to stay in order for the engine to run properly?

Ahhh , sometimes it's so hard ....

Those little 10/10/10 plates means ypu have 30gms of weights on that wheel.

God you must be good , cos sometimes your SOOOO blonde.

hehehe

I did a THOROUGH detail of the inside after that i lost all motorvation, looked for these thingies on wheels but couldnt find them - not that i had a clue what i was looking for in the first place - so i'll do the rest of the cleaning in bits n piece thru out the week - might even take train to work so car stays nice n clean once its done

micko im not sure which hoses u can remove in a GTR but i did a cleanout of my engine bay over the last 6 weeks and its made a big difference to appearance and i can see the oil filter now too! not to mention changing the spark plugs is no longer the 30min job it used to be with all the crap over the cams

oi i know more than the average female

Im still learning

and daddy only bought me the cars he never showed me how they worked.

ok so the plaque are the weights cos its bloody small if it is - or it just telling me i should be going looking for 30gm weights elsewhere on the wheel? 30gms - thats nothing how the hell does that give the problem im experiencing?

Sorry Micko , missed the :( on the end , wasn't meant to sound like you are the pain in the arse.Hehehehe

Balance pipes ??

A lot of the pipes are oil and water lines that run between the terbs and are essential for terb wellbeing.

Not much emission stuff around there ??

Don't know who told you that and YES , they are a pain to work on. That's why I'm getting the engine pulled ( yes , some thing else I pull as well Niz:D ) to do the terb swap .

cheers

    • Ok so will run the piping over that radiator and no plenum it is. Put that money towards a Haltech and see what suits. Any ideas something like an elite 2000 or 2500 right? My long term goal is 300kw e85 and manual swap and that’s a dream come true. For now will be 200kw and auto the stock rb25det neo intake isn’t too expensive with throttle body. If I was to have the port matching done, Would that be better than the stock de intake as the det has bigger holes plus has the spots for sensors etc? And suit more long term?  appreciate the advice?   
    • You understand AFR is not the only thing that contributes to it pinging yeah? Funnily, what the AFR gauge will tell you when it likely is pinging, is going to make you think things are really safe and good.
    • Run the piping how we all have for decades. Also the duel runners with the +T setup dramatically helps it gets on boost quicker. Yes, chase huge power it'll become a problem, but you're a long way off when you're already saying an aftermarket ECU is out of the budget. You also say NisTune as it's simple, and then immediately say it'll be painful, meaning... It won't be simple. It will likely cost you a lot more stuffing around with a Nistune, than just putting a Haltech or similar in.
    • I’ll order an afr gauge to keep an eye on it.  Then will get a haltech soon 
    • TD05 or maybe pulsar PSR2867r Gen 2?  id love a garret but it’s quite out the budget for now and I’m not chasing crazy power.    yeh fuel pump haven’t looked into but whatever works, kind of last on my list.    Nistune because it’s simple but Ik it’s a lot of pain especially as I’m auto +t with the whole seperate TCM etc still investigating that. Haltech id love but once budget tight for now atleast.    finally the reason I’m trying for a plenum instead of the stock intake is I already have a standard Intercooler mounted etc. so the ports are on both sides so trying to not have to go over the clutch fan radiator etc. trying to find a good deal return flow if I don’t than this will do for now I guess. btw any ideas with that, apparently some people have to cut blades to reduce it from hitting the Intercooler piping over the radiator ? Thanks
