Yeah man I'm back on the streets! I broke my back installing a pair of HKS Step 1 cams into the ol S14 today. Not really happy with the results. Whoever says they are fully streetable cams are full of shit! Bullshit you get gains below 3000rpm! It idles poorly and does not like staying under 2000rpm. That means no 4th gear at 60kmh. FFS... And any attempt at tuning doesnt solve anything. Garr....

if your shitting with them Leo, you can always lend them to me to install in mine... :lol: :lol:

whats wrong with the 33 duc?

alternator/starter motor is definately on its way out thus if dies on me again - again b/c it happen to me one night, then that would make the day no fun for me at all. having said that, its more then likely then ill take it. guy's place isnt far from my house, can always roll it home :lol: :lol: :lol:

hey sam, your status is offline. have you noticed that? yeah sil80 is fun - as you would know haha. its not for sale anymore, hence no link to its in my signature. plus i now have a t28bb on it =D

if your shitting with them Leo, you can always lend them to me to install in mine... :lol:  :lol:

LOL well the way the car is behaving now (a pig!) those cams are gonna be ripped out pretty soon..

yeah, im offline...but mysteriously here at the same time...

how come your keeping the sil? did the new T28 fix the idle smoke problem?

surprisingly the t25g is in prestine condition, i think the smokey idle was caused by 1/bad batch of fuel/s 2/incorrect plugs. im currently running the t28 at 1bar, same as what i was running on the t25g. but with the new turbs, OMFG is all i have to say. going way off topic, should talk this kind of jibberish in wasteland. :P

Is that WWW DOTs skyline that you bought? looks silimar, nice car :P

yep it is WWW DOT's , got it wed nite, it looks pretty funky ey? went 4 a cruise 2nite round town n every1 at the lights would shout out 'burn it up!' so annoying hhahahaha...gota get some custom plates, but dunno wat..was thinking my nickname "VANGE" or, cos my old skyline had a rattle noise from the exhaust, n this 1 doenst rattle, i was thinking the plate "NORATLE" as a joke haha, but yeh any1 got any ideas let me know...

this is great and all but in regards to the bbq, what is everyone bringing?? im getting about 2 - 3 kgs of marinated chicken wings which i believe should be plenty for everyone.

im gonna grab some of those bbq packs with all different crap in them and some snags, whatever everyone brings im sure itll be eaten

great turnout, great cars (any notice that majority of cars were all r33's) great cruise route, great bbq (nice selection of food), great conversations. did i meantion that it was great? :lol: :lol:

thanks Guy had a great day, that route was excellent got up to 160 lucky i slowed down or mine and driftr wouldve been walking home. Too bad for the rain but the cruise was great. Thanks to sam for only taking one pic with my damage in it :blink:

    • I wasn’t able to replicate the sound anymore. It was a one time sound so maybe it was just coincidence but it was like small pebbles being dropped in a coke can.   should I try cleaning the MAF? It could be it’s functioning but dirty? I don’t know.
    • Update 4: Hi all. The car drives again! Haven't driven for long, only to store it in the garage again, but the test drive was successful. The coolant and oil leaks seem to be fixed for now. Temps on the engine were also very good, while moving I never even saw 80C water during the approx. 30 minute drive. Ate up all the coolant in the reservoir though so will have to fill that even more when I go to the car next time. One thing that pisses me off is that the RPM gauge is still f**ked, I even resoldered the board twice and used copper paste on the silly screws that are used as connections. Next time I take it out I'll take apart the board and fit new components, I'll see if I can get a replacement IC for it.  I have an appointment set for 22nd of September for the engine tune to 370hp. Alignment also still needs to be done. My hope is that I can get all the legal stuff over with by the end of this season. Anyone of you have advice regarding intercoolers? Currently there is an APEXI core fitted, one of those weird hybrid ones, 600x270x76. I don't think it's bad but it's not new and now I still have the chance to change it now to legally include it in the paperwork. Only issue is that the only options that would arrive in time are a HKS Type R intercooler or generic Ebay spec intercoolers comparable to a JustJap one. Ideally I'd order a Plazmaman but it takes over a month to receive which would mean making the car legal has to wait until next season. Would love to hear some input on this. Same story for my injectors, the previous owner was a nunce and put ID 1050x on the engine. They work but are obviously not ideal at "normal" power levels. But I don't see a reason to change them unless the tuner says it's necessary. I read online before buying a different exhaust that the top secret style rear diffusers won't fit due to the size of the rear resonators. My buddy and I made it work by slightly "adjusting the shape" of the mounting bracket and making some spacers out of 3d print for the mounting bolts. Fits like a charm. Just putting this here in case someone has this problem. Even the hefty HKS Silent Hi Power rear can fits without hitting anything.
    • Well they got my money but they are not getting my gearbox ! 
    • It's needed for rolling idle up, and I think it is a decider on VCT also.
    • I mean, not really. Link ECU's can absolutely still have errors from the ECU thinking it's getting a sensor it's not expecting. I would imagine the speed at the ECU level in Nistune does absolutely nothing anyway? I assume the ECU does not do any fancy TC stuff with regards to front+rear wheel speed or anything of that like anyway. Someone who uses Nistune may be more fluent in it.
