Tractors running...nearly there Trent how busy are you, expect an SMS soon http://s819.photobucket.com/albums/zz113/djl077/?action=view&current=MOV03233.mp4

you can buy those little mini oxy style burners at bunnings pretty cheap would do the job..or if your missus wont let you use the oven just use bbq briquettes in a webber or even a dirt pit you will have it glowing red hot in no time

mate hit wombat in his commodore..tore half the front of the wombat...made a mess of his car too bits of rotting meat stuck in his chassis that he couldnt get out

Yes that would be great.. I would also like one of these magical calculators please..I tried ebay but no matches... Are they expensive, or can I pay for it with magical money from my magical money tree?

yeah makes sense...took me a day to figure out what you were talking about though..

I skip read through most of this and the one that seemed most interesting was the undertray tests.. i ripped my undertrays out ages ago and never thought twice about putting them back in... Has anyone tested anything like this on skylines...? is it worth putting the trays in or making others..?

i got a cheap cheapo china kit for about 400$..i went to fit it and some bits fit some didnt..then i realized I had to chop my bar up..hmm..then i realized if I flip it upside down and chop the ends of it I could fit it next to the radiator so i did that..then i had a chopped up cooler with no pipe..then i paid a guy a few hundred dollars to weld new ends on then chop all my pipe up and reweld it so it could fit..took a day or so.. So my cheap china cooler ended up costing as much if not more as a good quality brand name one..seems to work ok, though I think a good quality one would probably cool/flow and look a little better.. bUT... if I had bought a good quality one I wouldnt of had the guts to butcher like we did and If I had of mounted a good quality one in the usual spot I would of had to chop up my fornt bar which doesnt look pretty with a S1 AND when my missus ditched the car in the dirt it would have been destroyed and we wouldnt have drove home like I did .... Anyway thats my cooler story My advice, if you want life to be easy, spend 6 or 700, get a decent quality one that fits straight out the box.

I dont have any gauges..I just use the force usually..

unfortunately, apart form the turbos ,its still butt ugly Supra at the front.. But this is possibly the sexiest rear I have seen on any car ever..and seeing as its the only view most people will ever see that is all that matters

^^yeah i probably will , thats all my engine bay needs more paint... ok i think it just hit me.. was this post about the brass fitting directed at the oil return?? thought so..but i still dont see where it can fit into the line.. One fitting is the same as the oil feed fitting so I suppose it is meant to go between the oil feed and the block..if it is i will need an adapter to go between the t piece and the fitting in the block.. if I do ,is that a good place to put it..?

nah man with a custom bracket the screamer pipe will go under the heat shield as well.. so all you will see is the gate hat...which is unavoidable really.. guess i just have to hope whoever looks under the bonnet doesn't no what tial means..

Im actually worried the gate might flow to well...if thats possible..cant wait to see how it goes though yeah you need it..with the spacer there is about 2mm clearance on the comp cover..

yeah my housing is machined, fits like a glove.. guess i got lucky... Cheers for the headsup though that could of made life hard had it not fit

So after an adjusment its half way there, cheers again to scottynm35 who pretty much cut it, welded it and filed it smooth in the time it took me to smoke a cigarette.. I reckon I may even be able to get my stock heatsheild to cover the dumps for some extra stealthishness.. also just incase anyone is interested in what comes in your Kinguwana kit, here it is, minus the almost metre long oil line which is in my car already. The oil drain is very small compared to stock, not exactly sure what I will do about that.. Also I was surprised there was no blank plugs in the oil and water holes on the turbo cartridge..maybe this is normal I dunno.. does anyone know what the little T-piece sitting near the copper washes is for..I assume its for a gauge sensor, but not sure how or where it would fit in with the kit

at 700 a pop you could buy both and sell the one you like least..

nope..u should get one and then we can do some...

lol...shame on you... i like how it would have been an airbourne Missile if it hit a bump.. Had it been a commo or foulcan it would have been more like an airbourne wombat..

sorry battery was flat...will make sure its charged next weekend

oh yes google...who needs it when I got you man.. weird huh..cause it actually looks quite a bit bigger than my 21u... yeah sl2 went in but came out again, missed it by this _ much

well SL2 fits on stock manifold with a 10mm spacer, just.. unfortunately my hit miss measurements have left the gate just touching the strut tower damnit.. plenty of room though just need to make some adjustments..

Ok for the poor souls that rememebr this thread well..finally got around to pulling that turbo out and now im even more confused.. Now we thought it was a 21u, because we could see a 'u' but not much else as it was fitted to the car. It has a tag on it that has _4u on it, not 21u at all..the dash is a letter or number I cant quite read..but it definately isnt an original nissan housing of any description i know of..just looking at it you can see its physically bigger..Anyone have any ideas on this... anyway its probably not as restrictive as i originally thought..so unless its just the old 7 blade comp wheel that is no good, I have other issues with my car all together.. tempted to throw a proper 3076 comp wheel on it now just to see what happens..

damnit

maybe it was a twin turbo

that is honestly the worst elephapotamus I have ever seen... and I have seen 2
