I'll poke him up the arse with me chopsticks...hang on he might like that. I'll have to think of something else.

Hey Ed, how are you involved with SAU? Are you and the DR like on the board or what's the deal? How do I become a member? A "Skylines Australia" sticker would look sik on my Echo, across the bonnet. What ya think? LOL

Franky, repayments on the car would differ greatly due to the tax implications that a specific salary would provide. Obviously the tax benefits of someone on 20 k Vs 90 k would be quite different.

Cost would also differ greatly on the KM's being travelled in the vehicle as well as the budgets set for seriving and tyres (which would directly relate to the KM's travelled) ....

When you say average km's and services I use ?? Not 100 % sure what you mean buddy .... are you talking about the intervals to which I would budget the car for servicing ?

Lemme know ...

Kool, I picked up my door shell and front guard from Just Jap today so should be back on the road soon :P Took two trips tho, they gave me a driver side door and a passenger side guard ... didn't notice till I got home as the guard was in bubble wrap so we had to make two trips ... ffel like a bit of an idot for not noticing :lol:

The owner's name is Phoung. I think thats how its spelt? But yeah i noe the family got a younger bro and 2 sis. Used to own the video store in canley vale till we took ova. Hmmmzzzz.... let see his broz name is Peter and the reason he can afford the beast is bcuz he owns his own E-business company! Thats y ppl. but yeah dunno if i should say nemore? But i will ask him if he may be interested in a cruz wif u guyz 1 day? But yeah gotta see wat i can do as i havent really spk to him recently, jus wave as i havent seen him outside his rides.

    • My thought is if you were just moving it forward and the upstream geometry remained the same, then no difference at all. But because the current one has the filter direct into the AFM inlet, you effectively have the best chance of a completely symmetric air flow profile upstream, and in, the AFM, whilst the aftermarket inlet thingo has a (small, to be sure) bend between the filter and the AFM. That would bias the flow to the outside of the bend (downstream of the bend) which might well reduce the size of the signal seen by the AFM, for the same total flow rate. Having said that: If you're proposing to make your inlet look like a hybrid of your existing one and the aftermarket one, such that there is no bend where the filter is clamped on... then I say it will be just fine. If there is going to be such a bend, then, if you can align the insertion of the AFM blade such that it is at right angles to the plane of the bend, then there is a better than even chance that the centreline velocity where the blade is will remain more or less the same, and the velocity will just be a little faster to the outside of that, and just a little slower to the inside. **This is not professional investment advice and you should consult a suitably qualified ouija board, tea leaves or the intestines of a goat for more accurate prognostication.
    • Hi Tao, Thanks for your reply.  It's been a while and I managed to get the valve stem seals replaced with the head on the car.  Unfortunately this didn't solve my issue, the car still smokes a lot after idling (to be honest during idle you can see a bit of blue smoke from the exhaust), same after deceleration. I will try disconnecting the valve cover breathers, do I leave the PCV valve in? By engine oil drain pipe, do you mean the turbo oil drain?
    • What about if you just give it direct 12v and earth?
    • Hi guys . Can someone help me  I bought an Android screen for my Nissan fuga but it won't turn on   
    • 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.
