so goes the theory, however i would be interested to see the consumption and duty cycle figures of someone who keeps the same injectors and boost level, and literally just involves a retune to calibrate the ecu for the type of fuel... before and after would be excellent, esp if we can get a gas analysis report along with the air/fuel ratio -D

they're not humans so they dont count -D

Ahh I more meant the stuff before ceramic coating. I know morrie at horsepower in a box can get stuff ceramically coated too but hes on the other side of town -D

id love to go e85 but since the car is my daily, id need many more petrol stations to sell it for it to be viable for me, esp given the reduced range involved that said... who doesnt want an environmentally clean fuel that just happens to give u a bunch of extra power... heh -D

Awesome. I'll get him to do my turbos and manifolds when i get him to do me some split dumps/frontpipe/cat got pics of his handiwork about? seen them a few months ago but would like to see them again -D

quite pretty but there is a good reason the cost is so high, and that is the atx connector backplate at the rear of the motherboard - sealing that section off to stop leaks is pretty difficult however these guys make their own gaskets and use a brace to keep the pressure on the case incidentally some mainframe/datacentre computers are 100% immersion watercooled because of the huge amount of heat distributed from all the cpu cores gonna buy that very corsair water cooler next fortnight - hopefully this coming summer it'll be sufficient to keep my system totally cool -D

water cooling is only dangerous when you use water ;P there are proper coolants available that are non conductive, as well as all-in-one premade units like the corsair cpu cooler found here http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_p...oducts_id=12235 which i have used on several of my recent builds - theyre awesome... otherwise, you can completely immerse your components in an inert solution, such as here : http://yourtech.typepad.com/main/2008/10/l...right-here.html one of the earliest examples of this they used canola oil - which obviously isnt great to get on components as its thick and a pain to remove off components - the proper coolants evaporate like alcohol once components are removed from the solution bath its good stuff, but way expensive for the most part -D

Actually hes in a coffin, but I like the pic anyhow -D

Haha... We now have a ranga as a PM. Be afraid. Be VERY afraid. CHOGM is going to be piss funny for the rest of the commonwealth leaders, theyre going to think Kath and Kim have rocked up instead of the PM -D

removed it due to clearance issues with last suspension getting it repainted when i get type m skirts -D

hahaha 'things bogans like' spot on and a ranga in power? thats more scary than a woman in power imho -D

Turnbull or Hockey are the only palatteable choices for the majority of Australians Abbott is stuck in the 50's... hes one of the most unliked politicians in the liberal party (aside from christopher pyne)... Gillard will probably win tomorrow as the labor grps see her as the only way they can win the next election, and it may yet work. Many women might be inclined to vote for her on the basis of gender rather than policy.. Gillard vs Hockey or Turnbull would be a fight worth seeing - Turnbull needs to wise up though... he last stint was pretty bad but hes still more marketable than Abbott -D

yeah i can pm me ur addy and what time -D

black r32 with uras rear bar on regency road 30 mins ago -D

cool thanks for the advice, i think thats the easiest thing to do rather than messing around with the o2 sensors -D

i dont think its about u making a bad decision - buying an engine for spare parts is a very pragmatic thing to do imho however it does not necessarily solve your problem - you may very well fit a 2nd hand component and have the same thing happen again its not a nice thing to think about, however once u start tweaking anything on a car past the manufacturers specs, all the supporting faculties need to be brought up to the proper standard this is why ive spent $20k on my gtr over the last 3 years and done absolutely NO performance gaining mods - 20 yr old cars need work, no matter what anyone says now, removing a turbo and the associated piping does take a while. double that if u have a gtr but ill assume ur running a single based upon ur posts unless you are a dyno queen or a professional racer i would recommend a fast spooling turbo rather than a laggy one - and ignore the power requirement - the whole reason nissan opted for a parallel setup was to mitigate turbo lag, as inevitable as it is, however you can fit turbos that give you the best of both worlds for street use. the previous posts here have spelt out explicitly some of the best turbos to go with based upon their first hand experience. I personally would put Garrett above most brands (garrett rebuilds like HKS not counted) because thats who nissan chose to build their turbos for the entire run of the RB series engine.... ultimately the coolest thing about engine modding is that u can rebuild/mod the engine for >precisely< what u want to do with it, and im rather boring as I run my gtr as 99.9% street/daily and 0.1% track car btw, even if u try to save money, a gtr will cost you money. a lot. dont take my word for it. just ask those who know. -D

Hi Folks Ive done a bit of a search but couldnt find an answer so if there is one out there and ive missed it, plz dont shoot my question is, I have an r32 gtr - I would like to have dual exhausts from the turbo back, however I'm not sure how this will affect the o2 sensor setup... From what I understand there are 2 o2 sensors for the 'before cat' and 'after cat' positions, my concern is if one could put a dual setup on a gtr and use either a single pipe as an enrichment template, OR if i could add another 2 o2 sensors and then aggregate and halve the values produced to nistune Im not a mechanic and I really dont know how this all works, however I just want to know if its possible to run dual pipes, and how I may go about it Thanks -D

not me. havent been there today -D

Thankyou. -D

you missed my point simply boosting past 14 psi is not a guarantee that it'll lean out - have heard of many people running n1 turbos on a 26 and having 18psi boost and getting a similar power figure to you - not sure how u manage that, as the most I ever got with 14psi boost was 210kw on stock gtr turbos -D

the only thing that goes bang over 14 psi are ceramic turbine wheels you'd make up to the 270-280 mark with std injectors at 99.9% duty cycle - only if you pushed it harder would it make a diff guessing u had some kind of steel compressor turbos and the tuner set it to a good safe level... -D

No Car alarm? Just immob? Definately makes ya think about other ways to protect the car. A lockup garage is a great start but when ur at a mates place theres not a great deal u can do... -D

rofl how does something as simple as a trailer lose value? bastards id be grilling a manager if i was u -D

im happy to take u and luke as well as provide a submitted hills route it has some of the same route i do on my own personal cruises -D

yeah they are dusty but they brake really nicely imho - tho im happy with my qfm a1rms, havent had any squeels or any other complaints -D
