when i get older.....


Recommended Posts

hi guys...im new here....just a few words...

1. when i get a GT-R.....itll have to be in like 10 yrs old....how much like new are they 140000ks down the road???....in terms of general feel, handling etc.... the thing is i would really like to buy one brand new completely stock but theres no chance any more aye??....

2. am i the only one that thinks japanese car makers are being gay by discontinuing all straight 6s......i swear the greatest sounding engines are L6s and V6s dont sound any where as good.......(RB , M3 etc)

3. insurance sux......its too expensive...just because im 18! i think insurance cover for me should be cheaper than the 40 yr old man on 40 grand per year who is angry cos he isnt successfull driver who sees cars as convenience and drives a falcon wagon and loves to tailgate and doesnt blink while changing lanes and......................

1. Who knows? I don't think many people are driving even R32 GT-R's that have done more than that.

2. No

3. ****, if i'm on 40k when i'm 40 shoot me now :).. But..how many "old" angry drivers do you see on the roads?? I've never seen an old guy tailgate me ever.. I think the greatest complaint I can level against older drivers is the lack of concentration and "la de da ness" (own little world syndrome)

im just sterotyping the odd falcon wagon driver i know nothing about who is in a hurry to work doesnt blink when supposed to and generally a non educated (driver sence) bad driver

i hate most v6s ive been in.....especially my own....but generally i love the L6s have driven a gt-r my self once and listening to those m3s and supras and so forth

    • My guesstimate, with no real numbers to back it up, is it won't effect it greatly at all.its not a huge change in position, and I can't see the air flow changing from in turbulence that much based on distance, and what's in front of it. Johnny and Brad may have some more numbers to share from experience though.
    • Which solenoid? Why was it changed? Again, why was this done? ...well, these wear..but ultimately, why was it changed? Did you reset the idle voltage level after fitment? I'm just a tad confused ~ the flash code doesn't allude to these items being faulty, so in my mind the only reason to change these things, would be some drive-ability issue....and if that's the case, what was the problem? Those questions aside, check if the dropping resistor is OK ...should be 11~14 ohms (TCU doesn't throw a flash code for this) ~ also, these TCU designs have full time power (to keep fault code RAM alive), and I think that'll throw a logic code (as opposed to the 10 hardware codes), if that power is missing (or the ram has gone bad in the TCU, which you can check..but that's another story here perhaps).
    • Question for people who "know stuff" I am looking at doing the new intake like the one in the picture (the pictured is designed for the OEM TB and intake plenum), this design has the filter behind the front bar, but, the filter sits where the OEM duct heads into the front bar, and the standard aperture when the OEM ducting is removed allows the filter to pulled back out of the front bar into the engine bay for servicing, a simple blanking plate is used to seal the aperture behind the filter This will require a 45° silicone hose from the TB, like the alloy pipe that is currently there, to another 45° silicone hose to get a straight run to the aperture in the front bar Question: how will it effect the tune if I move the MAF about 100-150mm forward, the red is around where my MAF is currently, and the green would be where it would end up Like this This is the hole the filter goes through  Ends up like this LOL..Cheers    
    • Despite the level up question, actually I do know what that is....it is a pressure sender wire.  So check out around the oil filter for an oil pressure sender, or maybe fuel pressure near the filter or on the engine. Possibly but less likely coolant pressure sensor because they tend to be combined temp/pressure senders if you have one. Could also be brake pressure (in a brake line somewhere pre ABS) but maybe I'm the only one that has that on a skyline.
    • Pull codes via the self-diagnosis procedure. As far as I can tell this is just a sign of transmission issues but not a code unto itself.
