ohh niiiiiice looks good with the top up or down IMHO!

nah my tyres are crap and the suspension is boaty!! dont wanna risk it. anyway this has gone a little off-topic. sorry!

yeah the old pac drive isnt bad at all compared to the old surface! im happy to go either way. if its raining ill take the freeway

who cares if your car is dirty. i havent washed mine since i got it lol

i used a few tanks of 95RON (E10) and it ran fine, but i rekon it had more power with the 98RON i bet they automatically adjust for different fuel levels do like european cars do

ill be there 100% tomorrow night

i rekon you might be ok with an M35. they sound like they have an electronic blinker. there isnt a mechanical 'click' when the blinkers are on. well, not to me anyway. just try it! stick in an LED, worse thing youll do it make them flash faster

those rims look fantastic!! even better if they were on my car

i think parkers are T5. 5 watts FYI

i bet the rears are something like T10 (the push-in types). they seem more reliable than the old bayonet type globes.

and also you get more drivetrain loss from an auto gearbox too. a manual i could understand. plus we are talking 4 weeks not 2. so what were the figures last night of some stageas??

can you also let us know what dyno it was done on and what mode the dyno was in when the run was performed. 150awkw seems a little high. those figures may have been 'adjusted'

yeah i did thanks for baby sitting me!! and ill be up there next week too!

holy crap 200kw!!

cmon guys gotta get the stageas represented!! that said, we did have a S1, S2 and M35 there i hear M35s are pretty quick in stock trim

assuming there is no accident blocking roads tonight ill be there also!

sometimes i wish i didnt have a female type person controlling the funds in my household maybe if i sell my project car i might be able to afford stuff.......... anyway want an 85 turbo exa?

geez thats fantastic!! must be that famous melbourne climate that does it for you

yeah thanks ive seen the pics in the other thread! looks like its got a T3 flange on the exhaust housing and a T2X dump. the comp inlet also T2X! weird as hell!

so the only original parts of the factory turbo are what? the exhaust housing and wastegate actuator? and yup its in a bitch of a position!!

its been explained before, but the 'more logical' (to most of us it seems, not everyone) way would be when youre gearing down, the car is decelerating, inertia pushes you forward, thus its easier to push forward on the gear selector, not go in the opposite direction. check out some high-end race cars and things like WRC cars, they are opposite to the nissan factory configuration.

60km to work!!! holy crap!! yeah i do around 25km each way to work from home. mostly stuck in traffic, but on the way home its almost always moving. so fair enough you get decent milage. i drove to coffs harbour on my very first tank in this car (the dealer said he put in E10 95RON) and i got just over 600km from the tank. last tank on BP 98, i got 530km but that was city driving and to the south coast and back also. so mixed. i guess its heavy on the fuel, but its a shit load more comfortable than 11/9kg springs in the S15.

i think 80,000km is an estimated life only. cars are only designed to last 100,000km so it kinds stands to reason. anyway, youre getting pretty awesome economy! is that city driving??

damn, im lucky to get 450-500 from a tank on city driving. thats till the light comes on and filling it with around 65-70L might depend on milage as O2 sensors only have a life of around 80,000k. my M35 is over this. i should also mention that i get much better milage (and power) with BP 98 than i did with shell or caltex 98 fuels.

yeah i think im in this week too! now that i know where it is
