Children with fast toys who think owning a car makes them an expert on said car.

Grow up Greg. Dan is a MECHANIC, you know, went to trade school and put up with all the shite an apprentice has to go through. And now his knowledge is available to those of us who treat him with respect.

DOU33...

when you approached me to detail your car, i was more than willing to do it, for the price of materials (i.e. i wasn't going to charge you for my time or anything, even though it would have taken me close to a day to do, due to the shit condition you described your car as being in... i.e. it hasn't been looked after) as you seemed to be a half-decent guy..

Well, after all your defamatory (yes, you read correctly, your statements are defamatory) statements towards a certain member of this forum, who has done nothing but go out of his way to help you, both online and in real life, i retract my offer, as you do not seem to be the type of person who i want to attract to be part of my clientel, and i sincerely hope you grow a brain sooner or later.

Edit: Oh, and in relation to this topic, i am running 11psi through a stock RB25 turbo on an RB20...

On an RB25DET, i wouldn't be game to run any more than about 11 or 12psi *with the supporting mods (i.e. intercooler, exhaust etc)

Oh, also, if you decide to mod the car, and you take it to a mechanic, it usually pays to listen to the advice that the mechanic gives you, if he says to take it easy for the first little bit, instead of driving out of the driveway, after everything has just been put back together, and redlining the first few gears.... if you act like this, then don't be surprised when shit goes wrong, and it will be YOUR FAULT

Ok now that is over....

The fact is that I have done the tests and I know the results.

You can run 20psi constantly on an RB25. But like I said in my earlier post, as long as all ancillaries and tuning is correct. The standard AFM is just capable of handling boost pressures around 14psi because the power output would require an airflow of greater value than the standard AFM can measure. If your RB25 is making 210rwkw then the amount of air required to create that horsepower is enough to max out the standard AFM.

This is an example of an ancillary that is incorrect.

      Removing Charcoal Canister

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      People think it's a waste of space, ugly, etc, generally associate "emissions control equipment" with "bad". These OBD1 vacuum-only systems I'm not a huge fan because I think they don't go far enough. They're wasting some of the fuel captured because they start purging as soon as the engine pulls vacuum. Later OBD1/OBD2 they put an electric purge valve on them to vent only when closed loop is active so the ECU will trim some fuel out. Even later OBD2 with zero evaporative loss the tank is 100% sealed from atmosphere until you run the engine or press the refuel door release. The tank has to take much higher vacuum/pressure spec but you never deal with saturating the charcoal canister and losing some fuel that way. The fuel also lasts as long as it would in a 100% airtight container which is nice when you're dealing with modern E10 pump gas.

      Purchase new air conditioning condenser, and receiver / drier

      If your luck is anything like mine, what happens is in the process of pulling hoses to get access to the one leak you create many more leaks because every o-ring was on the verge of failing and the strain of pulling it apart caused it to fail. Sometimes life is simple, sometimes you pay twice trying to save once. For the R33 you can still get most AC components from Nissan, I use nissan epc data or amayama to look up the part numbers and then search for the cheapest/most practical way of sourcing from there.

      Boxes of oil?

      By joshuaho96 · Posted

      The dirty secret is there is nothing recyclable about the plastic bag or old plastic bottles either. Our local trash collection explicitly calls it out as hazmat in both cases. Oil-soaked rags + paper towels too. Oil-soaked cardboard is also not recyclable. The most common case of oil-soaked paper like that is pizza boxes, which are explicitly compost-only from the oil. To my knowledge hazmat oil contaminated plastic the only solution is either landfill or "thermal recycling". Most plastics in my experience there is slow permeation of the oil it's holding into the container so it's very challenging to get it 100% clean.

      Import insurance in 2025

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      Yes, and since RAA insurance essentially being swallowed up by the same monster that is NRMA insurance and all those other clowns, they are no bloody good now either. We dropped RAA insurance for the house a little while back because they lost the plot.

      I can tell you now, good luck if you're with NRMA (NSW equiv of vis RACV and QLD RACQ). Because NRMA are freaking horrendous to deal with for claims, even with a normal road car. Not to mention even more BS when they're in the wrong and didn't cancel a policy etc when they were meant to and make you jump through hoops for things.
