No worries Micko , I'm sure we can keep your wife amused while you play cars....:D

Cheers

no probs Micko - glad u both had a good time :) hope me and my friends didnt scare her :D

Ken my last job was 19K and i was miserable in that the 35K makes a job so much more bearable - its not sooo mucht he job but the environment - hehe but revenge is mine - my supervisor was told he had to go down from a level 6 to a level 2 - the same level as me hehe - actually as of june 30 they pretty much have all new staff in that place - that will probably count me as gone as well

Yep Ken, got the mines ecu in. Was using the stocker before that though.

Should have the car on the dyno Wed night if steve can fit me in so we can see what the a/f ratio is like.

Car goes pretty good now methinks. Worth having the aftermarket dial in the car now;)

In that case , theres the problem. I would say the fuel ratio will be a bit rich as the japs like a lot of fuel and timing.

Cheers

I owned 2 businesses ( wrecking and Driver Training )

Made some SERIOUS money but the satisfaction wasn't there after a while.

Am working in a mates shop on the tools earning less than you but am happy , no stress, no employees , no aggro.

Life is good atm and I enjoy my time talking about cars again with people who like them for what they are and not a source of making money out of.

Cheers

good for u ken :D

brave wish i could be like that but atm i need the money and not really sure if i want to do anything else maybe if work was more demanding of my time and not so boring i would feel different.

but you've made money ken :D if it wasnt for that u wouldnt have the lifestyle and the ability to downgrade the job.

I havent made any money really - havent been able to acquire investments but when i get older i'll probably be able to do the same but for now its boring old work for me.

    • Yeah, I don't believe the M35 uses a deadhead system.
    • Have you done your thinking backwards? 3 bar, 43.5 psi pressure drop being the presumed specification for an injector, means you need 3 bar upstream when they are firing into atmospheric pressure, and more upstream pressure than that when on boost (you add your boost to your rail pressure to maintain 3 bar across the injector) and you need..... less pressure upstream when you have vacuum in the manifold. So, presuming that you're idling at -10 psi, then you only need ~23 psi in the rail. I realise that I did not need to say all of that to you specifically Matt, once you'd realised your mistake. It's mostly there for complete clarity for others.
    • Have you reached out to the guys at Spool Imports? They are a Ross dealer, I can imagine they would have the rings just sitting on the shelf (I could be wrong).  
    • There's one for sale at Grand Auto Wreckers in Lonsdale (SA), for .... let's suggest the sum they're asking for will make you cry. You may have to embrace the idea of modifying the rear subframe to accept some other diff. You could probably find a way to wangle a shortnose into there, with a custom rear adapter and some sort of shenanigans to relocate the front mounts. This has probably already been done by others, so there might be some guidance available as to how easy/impossible it is, out there in the googles. But you possibly needn't restrict yourself to Nissan diffs if you're going to contemplate that. There are similarish Toyota diffs, possibly some Euro ones, possibly some Seppo ones.
    • The ball joint taper and arm taper have to match angle and diameter, but just doing the bushes is a much better option.....seems like the industry moved to "it is cheaper to replace the whole arm than take on the labour for changing this bushes", glad the aftermarket supports it
