  1. Went through my old Go Pro to delete shit and found this gem! Terrible driving, street tyres, Bilstein/King Spring suspension setup and dose
  2. GT-R badge missing, you want a R33 GT-R one? Took it off the boot I purchase for my GTS-t shit box because noway I've having GT-R badges on a shit box GTS-t lol
  3. because it "can" lead to heat spots forming and pre-ignition happening, however this generally due to running thicker head gaskets to lower the comp for big boost. Very 1990s way of tuning, nothing wrong with it but with E85, ECU and injector tech these days you would think there's no need to lower comp.
  4. I know it's a touchy subject, however just really curious to hear other people's thoughts on this. My thoughts + most of these cars are running E85 The main issue was that in the past people threw on thicker than OEM head gaskets to lower the comp, at the same time without really thinking about increasing the squish area/volume as a by product of the thicker head gasket. This would indeed cause those undesirable outcomes with pre-ignition and hot spots.
  5. These guys have it in stock, but it's drug money. https://www.efisolutions.com.au/lifter-ca-rb-vg-s13-180sx-r32-r33-wc34-z32
  6. Curious on why you removed the squish pad?
  7. fair enough.. Just worried that I'm paying all this money and it's just a scam! One of my mates fought and fought with Just Cars to pay him out when his car got hailed on. Was insured for an agreed value, however they kept on insisting to pay him out the price he paid for the car according to the transfer papers. What's the point of agreed value then? Anyhow they eventually paid him after he got the ombudsmen involved.
  8. Has anyone actually made a claim with Enthusiast? Paying insurance is one thing, having an agreed insured amount is another, but do they actually payout? I'm just scared of being a in a situation where they find every excuse under the sun not to pay you. E.g. oh you're running E85, not paying you soz.
  9. It feels like the "only" option at the moment. I used to be with NRMA Vintage (they grandfathered my policy so had it until Jan this year) then moved to Enthusiast after I accidentally resprayed the car and accidentally cut/welded the guards. NRMA Vintage wouldn't budge from the $12k cover.
  10. I reckon she would do a better job than ScoMo https://www.instagram.com/p/CRqrwryHT8C/
  11. haha I have a plan to do something like that one day, maybe not regional but semi regional
  12. I need a shed like that one day!
  13. @Toshi can help, he's located near Ryde However in 2021, there are far too many options out there not to ignore... Don't want to name brands as too many people here will get butt hurt however money spent on getting the Gameboy FC to run right is better spent on a modern speed density ECU.
  14. Should be interesting to see the yield increase! My mate recently got a solar system also installed at his place, albeit on two different roof sections with different pitches. His panels however do face North. You would think because of this he would yield less compared to a North facing house with a flat roof (all panels get East/West sun all day), but everyday he is consistently getting 5kWh more than I am. Geographically we are about 10km apart and his house is west facing. We both have 17x 390W JA Solar panels, but he is running a Fronius 5kW inverter where as I'm running a GoodWe one.
  15. To me 745kW sounds impressive, because you rarely hear anyone say I make 745kW at all fours.
  16. why do you go between hp and kW, it's so painful lol.. just stick to kW.. this is Australia - we use the metric system.
  17. I had a 300000+ km motor, put 1.65bar of boost into it and made 372kW for 1.5 years of track abuse till it exploded. Don't waste your money, throw in ARP headstuds and keep sending it at your power goals.
  18. Prick lol... More lockdowns for us Sydneysiders
  19. Why go through the process of rebuilding a motor and reuse the pistons and rods? No offence, but what a waste of time, money and energy. Also your turbo choice, and flange choice is odd. If I was in your position and really wanted to rebuild a RB20DET (said no one ever) I would get a Garett GTX3071R Gen 2, with a divided rear housing, proper twin scroll manifold (split all the way to a single gate OR twin gates) put E85 into it and send its mum into space.
  20. I've always put Tomei gaskets into cars I've helped build and in my own They use the same grommet style characteristic as the Nitto one, here's a 87mm @ 1.0mm variant. https://frsport.com/products/tomei-1321870103-headgasket-87mm-bore-1-0-mm-thickness-rb26dett Edit: Realised it out of stock and discontinued in the 1mm variant, however you could try channels like Jesse Streeter, etc. to see if they can locate one for you.
  21. Could always pop in a cam gear and advance the intake by a few degrees to make it fun again, but at the same time that would aid in grenading your 6 speed faster lol
