lol yea well u get to help me push it into the workshop so its a pain in the arse for u as well i know we like them, i want some more opinions though comon guys, dont need to be an expert to have an opinion

non zip file version

Hey guys got some new rotors, they are an RDA rotor that are dimpled and slotted what do u reckon, yay or nay? new rotor.zip

Strip it and sell it for parts mate, that's what I'd be doin

^^ yea head jobs aren't free lol

in that case i would be suspicious of the extra load the car was carrying on that long trip a week or two before it let go.... ive been informed that the PFC doesnt retard timing when knock levels become high, so i guess what ever load the tuner puts the car on the dyno is what the tune is made for cheers for the reply mate

Next to the driver side strut tower there's a boost solenoid

i like your persistance more often then not its such a simple fix

yeah it started to blow the smoke a week or two after that long trip, ill double check the rod bearings cheers mate

yeah sometimes i like to throw in a few core exercises some are: knees to elbows (hanging on a chin up bar then curling ur knees to ur elbows) Leg throws ( lay on the ground with someone standing behind u, grasp theyre ankles and get them to throw ur legs to the ground) Prone holds combined with medicine ball twists and crunches theres a million things u could do hey...be creative lol

deadlifts and squats are two of the best core buliders u can do IMO if u want to further improve it, avoid using machines and where possible do ur exercises standing up or with no back rest ie instead of doing seated shoulder press witha bar bell do it standing up etc.... u will generally lift less unsupported though If u wanna protect ur back, build up slowly and dont go too hard to quick... and if u are performing these exercises and u feel even a slight tweak in ur back FOR GOD SAKE STOP!!...ur only goin to make a small tweak worse and its goin to be alot sorer when u cool down

hmmm interesting thanks for the reply... it was my number six cylinder and all the rest were fine im assuming because that cylinder is at the back of the engine it gets alot hotter causing it to detonate/ping Also just before i noticed the car blowing blue smoke i took the car on a long drive from sydney to Wagga, the car was loaded up pretty heavy, id say it would have been carrying an extra 350-400 kg then it usually would. could this cause the engine to detonate/ping due to the extra load?

Pretty much what my number 6 looked like when it let go.... it had standard pistons running 285rwkw. what generally causes the piston to break away like that... is it just cause they're weak? or is there other contributing factors?

I think he was hell bent on pulling out the engine and stripping it... Stop being logical Rolls

If money was no problem then you would just have both

good stuff mate, 66 to 68.4 is some decent gains over the period of a month and a half especially if its all muscle Just keep eating

read through this thread mate, not 100% what size u need but im pretty sure theres a table in there somewhere that will give u a better idea on what restrictor http://www.skylinesaustralia.com/forums/topic/110680-oil-control-in-rbs-for-circuit-drag-or-drift/page__st__740__p__5988388__hl__oil+control__fromsearch__1#entry5988388

what uve got there is looking pretty good if u plan on using it for the street... track id throw in an oil cooler as well...

oh dont worry, crap can and does get in there sometimes we had a truck that was goin from sydney to brisbane and the thing was gutless... ended up pulling off the fuel pick up line between the tank and lift pump to find that there was all types of grassy crap comin out of the fuel tank

needed to get rid of it quickly and i did so it doesnt worry me

looks to be a 26 Plenum and throttle body set up

This i agree with i dont agree that a high displacement pump ie tomei/Jun would empty a stock sump as quick as some people say it would to have pressure u must have restriction, the pump can flow as much as it wants but its only goin to reach a certain point before the pressure relief is reached and dumped back to sump and buy putting the restictors in the head maximum system pressure will be reached quicker and therefore reduce the flow leaving more in the sump if im missing something let me know

ive already spent 20k in engine mods/drive line mods alone, and ive done pretty much all the work myself and thats shopping around for my parts AND i still have about another 6k to get it goin

had my lisence for a bit over 5 years now 1988 VL commodore (non turbo) stock with no power lol 1992 323 Astina (with a Familia engine conversion) approximatly 140 FWKW (awesome sleeper!!!) 1992 R32 GTR 190RWKW 2002 HSV Clubsport 285RWKW CURRENTLY 1989 R32 GTR was 285RWKW goin for 400 1996 R33 GTST stock and gutless I get bored fairly easily

^^^ this is what happens when you've recently rewired a Rover dash and its still fresh in your memory^^ haha
