Could it be one of those brake cover thingys ? Cause these days u can purchase a brake cover to make it look like brembos, ap, wilwood etc. Cause from far they seem to look real.

that was the one!

interior was nice, and the big brakes + rims is what caught my eye, but upon further inspection i saw the mis-matched calipers..

and they were real keefy.. they were huge, and real.

(getting up at 5:30am on a monday for work sucks :))

While I didn't think the show was worth the $16 entry fee I still thought the show was OK. I loved the turbo charged NSX on display, but my favourite was XSpeed's NSX with the carbon fibre body kit. Sooo cool! I was a bit dissapointed in the turn out of Supras; the ads I've heard state that there are 'Supras' but there was only one (which I'd seen before, maybe it was just on the day that I went). I also loved the Evo IX's that were there (even though they were mainly stock) and the few RX7's that turned up were pretty cool.

speaking of car shows, whens auto salon, is sauwa putin a display in this year...

SAUWA has entered AutoSalon for the last few years, and will continue to do so if there is sufficient interest from the club members. Entering car shows requires alot of time and effort to organise, not to mention the cost.

We haven't entered Autoteknica this year as AutoSalon isn't far away, and seems to get a better showing, but if people are interested in showing there cars for future events then feel free to PM me your interest. SAUWA will happily support it's members entering any of the shows/comps providing there is enough interest.

Cheers

      Stock rb25det neo questions

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Um. No. Since Matt introduced the TIM it has become a lot easier to deal with the consequences of changing K for AFM and injector swaps. Then, tuning is a f**king doddle. No-one needs to know or care how many grams of air are flowing or any other bullshit. Need more fuel in a cell? Add more fuel. Need more timing in a cell. Add more timing. Need to adjust any of the other tables for warm up and so on? No harder than anything else. Sure - it's not an ECU system for starting from scratch on an arbitrary engine. But then.....it was never supposed to be, not recommended for, and almost never used that way. So.... On your engine, in particular, Nistune/Nissan OEM is about as sophisticated and difficult as banging 2 rocks together. Those ECUs are primitive and simple. There is nothing difficult there. I learnt Nistune from scratch, created new maps with extended axes, interpolated/extrapolated the original maps onto them and tuned my RB20 (basically the same ECU as your 26 ECU) all by myself, more than 20 years ago. And that was long before even TIM.

      Set of knee pads for a R34. Will fit every model I think. Comes with everything except the rubber covers for the bolt holes. Still in great condition. You will need to drill holes to mount these or use double sided tape. I can do free shipping and will be shipping from the Netherlands with tracking.

      Nistune needs something like an entire excel spreadsheet in which you build an abstraction layer that converts everything from real units you can actually measure into all of the various tables. The number of unexpected dependencies hiding in how the Nissan ECUs do math is a pretty impressive optimization trick for 8-bit MCUs but good god is it awful to actually work with in practice.
