haha nah thats cool al

yeah picked up some cool slimline LED one that glues to the rear windscreen for $20 at rice'o'barn seemed to do the trick

better then those ugly box ones that come standard on 1987 corollas haha which are $30 :thumbsup:

i was going to get round to it sooner rather then later anyhow as i was paranoid that someone target driving behind me would not notice my tail lights glow birghter as i pressed the brake pedal and run up the back of me :s

so its a good idea to have the 3rd centred brake light

........

thanks heaps for your offers guys Paul and Al are lending me the stuff i need to clear my epa (hopefully), but if they fall through, i'll let you know if i require your help, once again... very pleased with the help and support that is offered on this forum... has alot more to show for itself then most other forums and car clubs

cheers

Ruffles mate, why dont u just swap or lease the car out to someone u trust, or even ur parents, that way when ur 21 u can drive it again, i know that is what i'd do.

I also got EPA'd last week, i know how u feel, u always say to urself "it will never happen to me." then it does. U know my friend drove his skyline round for 3 yrs on his P's, got pulled ova many times but neva got dicked for pwr/wt. If i was u just get the car registered under ur Dads name so that u can keep it... and mayb drive it if ur a good boy... or not.

All the best mate,

P.S. A lend of a stock exhaust (33gtst) is also needed my way to clear up the EPA notice, if ne1 wants to lend a hand to a fellow skyliner

aghh i just read that again and i ment police presence, it was written late at night. But yes there are too many tossers around eltham now and due to this fact there are an ever increase presence of police in the area and also due to other activties now happening in the area.

So true, Eltham is starting to become hoon central unfortunatly... Eltham maccas is now almost like bell st. maccas.. according to mark it will be 24hours soon.. so that will only make things worse... and yeah ridiculous amounts of tossers around this area now.. *sigh*

I'll check at driftline if the stock catback has been returned... someone's always using it to clear epa's.

can't we just leave one with the epa? i'm sure they've caught on to the fact that every second car has the same exhaust on that they'd looked at the day before.

      Ball bearing turbos

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      The cross sectional area of a circular hole scales with the square of diameter. So a 2mm diameter hole is 4x the area of a 1mm hole. Not double. The 1.7mm hole is nearly 3x the area of a 1mm hole. You do not need restrictors at both ends of the oil supply line. If you have new, additional restrictors at the turbo end, that you did not have before, then you do not need a restrictor at the inlet end.

      Ball bearing turbos

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      Hi all. Been a while but things are moving along. I just have something that I am wondering about. Since I will use OEM turbo oil pumbing, I got myself a new bolt, the one that goes into the engine block oil feed. As I recall (and see visually) this bolt comes restricted with I think a 1.7mm hole? Not quite sure but it was something around that size. The turbos have 1mm restrictor bolts installed, as necessary due to ball bearings and my higher oil pressures. Can I now just use that OEM bolt with the 1.7mm hole in for the engine block or will this actually be too much oil flow restriction and I have to drill it out first? In my head it would make sense for the bolt to be at least 2mm wide as both turbos take "1mm of oil flow". Do let me know if my logic is flawed here, I just want to make sure I don't kill my turbo bearings with too little oil. Don't know if I can trust the saying I read somewhere that ball bearing turbos essentially only need an oil mist

      Forced Performance Hta Turbos

      Yeah based on old XRC5964S specs, it looks to be roughly GTX3576R sized? But this 5964S compressor will flow 90lb airflow somewhat similar to the compressors in both the GTX3584RS or G35-1050.. I fully expected the 0.64 rear A/R to choke up top - seems way too small from typical convention - but these are seemingly beneficial over the prior 0.82 results.. Be interesting to see if he comments on the EFR question in that thread - he mentioned in a prior video that BW EFR's were the "cats pajamas 10 years ago", but by the sounds of things all his kits have been using Xona for quite a while now.

      Yeah it’s still got the oem manual gearbox and clutch, only kinda mods are a blow off valve, coil overs, and a aftermarket intercooler. Also had it for about 2 months now with a lovely midnight purple paint on it.
