DARK: true. a twin charge system would probably be better. silent: i spose a waste gate would still work?

ALRIGHTY THEN!!! last night was pondering and i came up with this idea. i dont think anyone has the recources to experiment this idea but I want to know ppls opinions etc. ok. here goes: On the turbo shaft have something that works like a freewheel on a bike (can spin one way but not the other). attatched to the "freewheel" would be a belt to a pulley that spins at a constant rpm. the idea being that the compressor wheel would be spinning at a minimum of X amount of rpms and could not spin any slower than that. on another part of the shaft have a system that makes the exhaust wheel spin seperately from the compressor wheel, but when it hits "x"amount of rpms, it engages the other half of the shaft so the compressor wheel can spin faster and create more boost. if you dont get a part of it then i shall elaborate on it. cheers. james. NO FLAMMING PLEASE!!!

sorry to hear that cheif. back in the day when i used to drive an 84 laser (not that it was better than any other car) i parked it and when i got back some @(!(&$(# )@*# )$*@#&* V$*@*!!! put 3 of the thickest loogies on the back window and the sides... was so disgusting. i struggled to get it off with a hose. eww.. cheers. james.

that would have been me. i dont get it. are you saying get your rego details changed to fake details? and even if so do you honestly think many ppl are going to go to that effort so they have a chance of escaping cops?etc? think about this aswel: youd have to change your plates EVERYTIME you escaped a chase. i think it would be a MUCH easier task to not hoon. or atleast be very selective about where you do it . cheers. james. EDIT: correction: they are not confiscating OUR cars just people who hoon. you make it sound like EVERY BODY on this forum hoons. and also, just because it was ONLY 15 ppl who died, try using that argument against the family members of those who died.

WARNING: 2cent deposit imminent!!!! although this scenario is a possibility, i couldnt see it as an event that occurs regularly. i mean unless your new R34 gtr isnt registered id say logic states that its as simple as the officer writes down your rego plate number as you try and loose them? with this in mind who would try and escape the officers wrath? and also- dont police cars have video cameras? cheers. james.

ahhhhh! i get it now. thanks for your help every one. cheers. james.

rice_me_up replied to carl h's topic in Engines & Forced Induction
much respect to you. even though the rb25 has the upper hand and is an obviously easy engine swap to produce more power, im glad to see someone putting some serious effort into an rb20. cheers. james. -

New Section
rice_me_up replied to rice_me_up's topic in Site discussion - including Ideas/Feedback & Bugs
awwww..... the important thing is that i tried.... cheers. james. -
i suppose that this could be easily covered under the "general automotive discussion" (perhaps) however i thought it would be a good section to discuss things like paint jobs, polish jobs and other bling stuff? what do you guys recon? im kind of getting an image of lots of topics like (heaven forbid) "decals- where do i get them" sort of deal but... meh.. at least they would be more proned to one section and easier to ignore no flamming please, its mearly a suggestion cheers. james.

its generally thought that BOV's are a waste of time mod. sure, i like the sound but i dont think its worth the hassle and the +$150 that they cost. also if they are not installed correctly they can screw around with your idle n stuff. intercoolers are good for handling more boost. what sort of engine do you have, rb20 or the rb30? also, be specific on the usage of your car (ie street and drag or street and track etc)... hope that helps mate. cheers. james. edit: and also, for legality issues- its best that you check your vic roads equivitent website. (i dont know what its called in NSW). there is so much heresay when it comes to modification laws, your best off hearing it from the horses mouth!

on the subject of XXX in dandy sort of area, i know a guy with a 300zx. he got a kit sprayed and fitted there, they snapped one of the bolt things when they installed it, and said "basically, its your problem"... so i personally wouldnt go there. cheers. james.

Did I Just Kill My Gearbox?
rice_me_up replied to barnoon's topic in Suspension, braking, tyres and drivetrain
to put it plain and simple: if your car is rolling (clutch in OR out)- there will be a section of the gearbox that is moving. if the clutch pedal is out, and its in neutral (regardless of rolling or not rolling) there will be a different section of the gearbox thats moving. to get a very good understanding of how gearboxes work i reccomend this link: http://auto.howstuffworks.com/transmission.htm your description to me sounds like your gearbox has been raped. my condolences for your loss (as much as i like to be right, i hope im wrong). i hate it when bad shit happens to pride and joys. cheers. james. EDIT: took me so long to write this up, your question has been answered before i finished! but atleast i supplied a good link! cheers. -
