you're writing to rb'z asking for more members??? thing's ain;'t depserate mate! we have radium already, that's enough rb'z :D

ooo aaghh @ summoner :D

haha joe - drives along listening to classical music and with his white gloves, along with his lighthouse strength headlights :D:)

lol

yeah whilst perusing the site, looking for the merchandise section (they actually get pretty cheap new stuff in by the look of things), found out that radium is rb (has him on their frontpage, his name for feature car), as well as others I didn't know were rb

YA F***CKEN WHAAT !!!

Err , no I'm not where does it say that ???

Not happy Ken

I think those who are rb's should have to announce it in there signature, that way we can ignore anything they have to say:lol:

Beware, FIL the newbie appears to be one aswell

Sorry Ken, but the hysteria has started, looks like you've become an involuntary rb memeber.

See'ya:burnout:

HAHAHAHAH like how the nazis made the jews wear the star of david on their shirts in ww2

rb members have to walk around with RB on their shirts just so ppl know before they start talkin to them :):D

btw ken I wasn't serious about you being on the rb feature list, so you can stop trying to find yourself on their website :lol:

yer im an RB from way back when it started.. i use to own a turbo tx3 back then, made some good friends from the club too whom don't associate with them any more

Its changed a hell of alot and it is basically full of ricers now :)

To prove that we tried putting a MC team together.. we were lucky to scrounge together 4 people to race. ahh well.

Shaun

hahaha please.

everything about my car denies that :)

mate made me some stickers on the weekend.. its the intel inside ones but it says 'rice inside' and dared me to put em on the car. anyone up for it? :D

Back to cheers

Ken

saddy im a RB member to, an early member number 45 or something *sighs*

its been the most tormenting experience of my life, and still goes on to this day, i see a quack almost daily and can't afford mods to the car because of it..

that said im one of the few who can claim to have kicked kens ass at anything involving wheels..

*flame suit on about subaru gearboxes*

    • Bit of an update to this one. Having some issues on the dyno that held us back (boost spiking) and I want to pass some info over you guys and see what you think is wrong with my setup. The current readout on this dyno is 462rwkw on a low reading dyno so keep in mind it is a real world 500rwkw setup on a hub dyno. Don't read into the power figure too much as a sign of the issue. The short and curly of it is: 2.8 Litre Racepace build RB25 NEO N/A Head with VCT (internally standard however ) Borgwarner EFR 8474  Turbosmart 50mm Straight Gate + Mac valve 6Boost Manifold 4" dump to full 4" exhaust (nil restrictions) Wastegate plumbed back in and all angles in the exhaust system are acceptable and not too sharp. GFB SV52 BOV in cooler piping  Turbosmart BOV in EFR Housing   The issue we are having is it comes onto full boost for example at 4000rpm and spikes to 24/25psi, before dropping down to 17psi before slowly rising back up to the target boost of 23psi. It was extremely uncontrollable and the tuner actually had to ramp in boost progrssively with each 1000rpm on each boost setting we selected to try and reduce the amount of spiking. Sometimes we would see a drop of 10psi from the peak at the beginning of the run, to the low, until it took the next 500-1000rpm to stabilise back up to the target boost. The tuner is pretty confident that the straight gate is just a poorly designed product and leaks too much boost upon cracking the gate open and theres no way to fix it other than going to a poppet valve. He's also confient theres no ignition breakdown or floating valves. The fueling is extremely stable as well. Turbo speed is somewhere around the 109,000rpm area. The spanner in the works for me is that prior to this Borgwarner and StraightGate, the car was tuned on -5 twins at a diferent tuner, and he also had issues controlling the boost with it spiking around the same rpm range, so to me this sounds like the same issue and it can't be anything on the turbo side as this was all changed and I think the behaviour is extremely similar, if not the same. We also removed the mac valve and did a run on wastegate pressure and it still spiked and had the same behaviour. My thoughts on possibilities are: Boost Leak VCT Cam Gear isn't reliably activating consistently - (On this however, we did a run with the VCT disabled and the boost still spiked) Turbosmart BOV is not handling the boost? However this seems unlikely to not be able to handle 20psi. I have a couple of logs that I can't make sense of if anybody knows how to read them and can obtain further logs of other parameters if they are not enough, happy to pay for anyones time. The dyno readout with the power figure is the most recent last week. The other picture is from two weeks prior to that where we couldn't break 400kw (we removed the cat), however the issue of the boost control persisted. @Lithium @Piggaz @burn4005 @GTSBoy @discopotato03 I've tagged those that were quite active in recent pages here, no disrespect to those that know turbos well but I missed tagging.

    • I recently purchased a 2018 Infiniti Q60, which has an SD card navigation map. I can see my system has options for real time traffic updates etc, and am wondering if there is something I can purchase to get this working? I can see there are at least updated maps for USA and Canada, but nothing for Australia. Surely Infiniti took changing road systems and city expansions into account when they decided to use an inbuilt navigation over Android Auto/Apple Car Play, or are we doomed to drive on streets that don't exist in the navigation system if you drive to a new area?
    • Luckily I didn't put in etch primer as I just found out it's not compatible with my body filler lol. Also just need to sand the panel anywhere between 150-400 grit so I'm in the clear there. It does say to not apply to soft old paint, I assume that means paint that is flaking, peeling,etc
    • @dbm7 and @GTSBoy thank you both very much! will give that a shot!
