  1. gone, sold whatever you call it
  2. I am serious guys! if you know someone put them in touch... We dont have the time to care for him as much as he needs (dad is often away for weeks at a time and the nanny is a f**king moron)
  3. Young male Shetland Pony, Likes hay and carrots, sometimes happy to bite a hand. Currently on the Gold Coast and free to a good home!!! His name is Irwin He still has his balls if you want to pimp him out, New owner to arrange transport please PM me
  4. how much do you want to do it? just a curiosity as im lining up stuff for when my engine is out ...What capacity engine stand do I need for the engine and accessories? and what size crane for the lot?
  5. people get in trouble for posting that stuff on here sorry man its in the rules
  6. yeah, but he could also be testing the drag coefficient of various new bodykits on a closed road like a runway, i do that all the time!
  7. seen the straights at QLD raceway???
  8. without the speed sensor on my dash the following happens; speedometer works (its cable driven) HICAS failed - so dicked it off Power steering is locked into high speed mode, it actually starts the car in low speed and then kicks over after about 30 seconds or so. ECU cannot detect speed signal to feed to consult ALTESSA works ABS works not sure what happens with the sensor in as i am having problems finding one for an early model GTR r32
  9. the speed sensor on the dash sends a speed signal to the HICAS power steer ECU isn't that right?
  10. mine does this too, and its not speed limiter as the speed sensor is rooted in the dash so it cant loop back too the ecu
  11. http://www.techdiag.co.uk/obdscantech/web/pg002.html found OBD SCAN TECH via a link on the forums here somewhere today, the software is great and does the cylinder test, a lot of other cool stuff thats worth a look over
  12. front of the engine, left side of car, round thing at the front of the exhaust cam
  13. im going to give the electronic method a go tonight, disable idle adjustment from engine and check the drop in rpm in each cylinder, measure it and see what makes the least difference. in theory this should tell me if i have 1 cylinder that is crap right?
  14. fair call boss, on the safe note with me leading the boys never got a chance to break the speed limit on the straights!
  15. straight lines get boring, one day when you are a big boy you will learn to corner better dont worry and dont rush it like potty training or you will end up shitting all over the toilet floor
  16. thnks for clarifying
  17. ILL BE THERE?
  18. yeah my old mans XKR supercharged jag has something, keeps it quiet and backpressure when its needed down low also the DECS is a great system, lot of auto shit, and its electronically controlled but around $550 USD if you can find them anymore! I must stress you don't try and boost hard when the valve is shut!!!! the apexi EVC is exactly the same as the one I installed
  19. Hi guys, I'm writing a bit to give people a heads up on a noise reducing device I recently installed on my R32 GTR. Its called a butterfly valve! My mate brought it in a 3 inch size from Autobahn (I hate that f**king store so much) for around $200 and never fitted it too his car, so I bolted it into mine. It is a circular plate which can rotate to restrict airflow in the exhaust system, I found a photo of one for sale on here, and have added a link too it below but a lot of exhaust stores can get them in, but 3" is the largest size i think. http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/Wo...alve++butterfly Anyway this is his pink fluffy velvet background picture, from his add but you can see the butterfly, the section of exhaust you bolt into your exhaust and the cable and lever to control it all. I have a 4 inch exhaust after the gutted cat (it came that way) and I simply put the valve in line with the cat just after it then ran the cable up through the gearstick boot, but you could use the eyelet for the CAT exhaust sensor, then put the control lever on the right kick panel on the drivers side, just under the bonnet release, this keeps it out of view of the police if I get pulled over as they apparently can ask you to open it up for noise testing. The valve when fully shut its diameter is slightly smaller than the pipe it sits inside so it doesn't completely restrict the airflow but does create a lot of back pressure. Now at idle you wont notice this much, ever revving the engine stationary wont make a huge difference, but under load when most open exhausts are noisiest it really does make it a lot quieter, great if you want to pass a cop in a 50 zone on the side of the road, or you live at the top of a steep hill. You have to be quite mindful that with the increased back pressure your turbos will not spool up anywhere as fast or easy, and infact if you try kick the arse on the car when it is shut you could potentially blow a gasket as the pressure finds other ways out of the exhaust system, not a problem for me because I had a not standard cat converter on my car and had to trim the flanges on it to fit the cat with an angle grinder and successfully cut a couple of holes in the cat (yes I'm getting them welded next week). The added bonus of this seams that the engine seams to be running smoother on long cruises; I think this is relative to valve overlap which is basically how part way during the combustion cycle the intake and exhaust valve are both open, without back pressure to hold the mixture in the cylinder I seamed to be running a little rich at low to mid RPM when the turbos weren't boost like when I'm driving on the highway, something closing the butterfly once I'm at cruising speed has almost completely fixed! Anyway I can boast enough about this device and the hassles it has already averted for me and hope this helps some of you guys, if anyone needs some help and you post a question and I dont reply please PM me.

  20. Maroon R33 S1 GTS? Oxley onramp of Ipswich highway 7:30am this morning 468KAO? Thanks for letting me into the traffic!!!
  21. i miss crazy horse, different type of strip joint
  22. probably, refresh with a pic?
  23. Wow! Went out to the Friday night drifts at QLD raceway with TURBOS for the first time in what must have been 2 years since I saw a live drift event (last one I saw was in long beach California), was a bit concerned about paying $10 to watch a 'amateur event' but I was really impressed with the quality of the cars, competitors and event management. I'm going to have to give the skidpan a run when I go up next, I'm too much of a blouse to try the track.
  24. http://www.solve-it.org/skyline/R34%20GTR%20MFD%20MIKE.pdf from memory this should help
