not so bad, you can now buy something that works. HUMM, maybe i should do thesame. LOL.

On another note, i scorred all the gaskets and studs and bits and pices needed for the exhaust manifold repair for $154 all up. YEEHHHAAAA.

Looks like i have sold my snotter :(

damn :ermm::ban:

Still got the turbo for sale though Toff :P

Id love to buy your 33 but i just need some wheels to get around the net few weeks as it is without being fancy!!!

wogs....what was your torque reading on the 25?

at 170rwkw my torque was 550.2Nm !!!

dam thats ship loads. maybe i should bold an old rb30 in my 32 and bolt on a dirty old turbo. surly that would spin the wheels easy.

hahahah, you can feel the torque, well after owning silvias, r32 gtst, r31 gts with rb25, 300TT, vr4 etc etc.....Like the torque of the RB30.

Yeah turbo on, just sorting out the little problems like getting the raditator flushed today and the flywheel machined (damn vibrations in the clutch made it look like I was a retard trying to drive)

LOL. yeah i miss tourqe, the magan has a bit over 400 nM at the front wheels, and that is GREAT, any gear, bag, your away. Skyline, you need to rev it to get anywhere. LOL.

Well done mate, can't wait to see it.

On an up note, found out last night that my FICD, FIRTS IDLE CONTROLL DEVICE solenoid, doesn't work. See if this makes any differance.

plan B, build the bitch up, pronto. LOL.

That requires money and i owe more than i have let alone coming up with enough to rebuild it.

Im going to strip as much off/out of the shit heap as i can and flog it all along with the rolling shell!!!

Then once thats done im out of cars for a while, IM OVER THEM and all there PROBLEMS

Before you get too excited about torque figures remember a dyno set up in power mode (eg rwkw) will not accurately measure torque.

I mean, if the dyno was set up for a torque reading and you got 550Nm then that's an awesome result, but if it wasn't then there is absolutely no truth in that figure. This was a big problem after the dyno day with Dr Drift when everyone started saying "I have such and such Nm", when all their figures were complete rubbish.

    • You just need to remove the compressor housing, not the entire turbo. I would not be drilling and tapping anything with the housing still on anyways. 
    • So, I put my boat on a boat. First of all, I'm going to come out and say it. Why is Tasmania not considered a holy goal, an apex that all road-legal modified cars go to, to experience? This place is an absolute wonderland of titanic proportions. If people are already getting club runs for once in a lifetime 30 person cruises to Tassy then I've never seemed to see it. It is like someone replaced the entire place with an idyllic wonderland for cars, and all of the people living there with paid actors who are kind, humble, and friendly. Dear god. After doing a lap of almost all of the place I've found that it's a great way to find out all of the little things that the car isn't doing quite right and a great way to figure it all out. All in all, I drove for 4 hours a day for a week and nothing broke. I didn't even need to open the engine bay. This is by all means a great success, but it has left me with a list of things to potentially address. I also now have a 3D printed wheel fitment tool which annoyingly hasn't got any threads in it to actually assemble it. I might be able to tape it together to check the sizing I actually want to use, but it'll likely involving pulling the shocks out to properly measure travel at least at the front, and probably raise the car while I'm at it, at least in the rear. I scraped on quite a few things and I'm not sure how else to go about it. I was taking anything with a bump at what felt like 89 degree angles. And address those 10 other tasks. And wash the car. God damn it is dirty. And somehow, the weather was perfect the entire time - And because I was on the top of Mt Wellington it turns out it was very much about to freeze up there. I did something I typically never do and took some photos up there in what must have been -10 and the foggy felt like suspended ice, rather than mere fog. If you own a car in Australia, you owe it to yourself to do it.
    • Damn that was hilarious, and a bit embarrassing for skylines in general 😂 vintage car life ey. That R33 really stomped. Pretty entertaining stuff
    • Hi, I have a r32 gtr transmission. Does any of you guys have an idea how much power it will hold with the billet center plate and stock gearset? At what power level and use did yours brake with or without billet plate? Thanks, Oystein Lovik
    • Saw this replica police car based on a Mitsubishi Starion XX parked next to a 'police box' (it's literally a box) in Hirohata, Himeji City in Hyogo prefecture the other day. It's owned by Morii-san who is a local Mitsubishi Starion enthusiast. According to a local radio station blog post, he always wanted to make a police car himself based on ones he saw in his favourite Manga comics.  As it's illegal to modify a car to look like a police car and drive on the road, Morii-san tried many times to get permission from Aboshi police station headquarters nearby. They refused initially by after they got tired of that they granted him permission. However, the car can only be displayed on private property and obviously can't be registered as long as the police livery is present. The car was completed at a cost of 1.5 million yen (US$ 10,000) in addition to the car cost. A location was chosen outside Hirohata Police box where the car can easily been seen from the street. Morii-san has two other Starion road cars, both widebody GSR-VRs.
