You guys are a pissa, Nandos Lemon and herb is hot enough for me! :D

But rush on the other hand, she's the same as you guys, extra hot everything but then complains she can't taste it :)

word!

ppl need to have two levels of 'extra hot' - extra hot (for the weak sauce) and extra hot (for the hardcore)... because when i order extra hot i want my eyes to water like ferni's does if he get's too close to my order :laugh:

meanwhile, can someone please explain to ferni that chilli actually has a 'taste', once you can get past the heat aspect of it...

here in perth we used to have a mexican resurant chain called The Good the bad and the ugly. It stood for good food , bad service and ugly waitresses (that was thier pitch). It was the first experience I had of the habanero as I attempted to eat THE DYNAMITE, a nacho dish made from pulped habaneros as the basis of the salsa. If you could eat it all in 30min your meal and all your drinks were free. At the time I was 18 ,many years ago. being a thai food nut at the time I foolishly scoffed at the challenge, thinking mexican jalepenos were weak so this habanero thing was probably nothing special. The first bite told me how wrong I was but, I pushed on through the pain. I almost finished it but, ended up a mess defeated and feeling so unwell I had to get a lift home with....my mum! It almost killed me, well maybe the wild the sphincter of the universe helped too.

That was the begining of my obsession with true hot chilli, I could not let the habanero win. It had dealt me such humiliation it just had to become my new best friend.

anyone who likes hot stuff, try and get a hold of some 'turbo supercharge' from the chilli factory (i think thats what its called). kinda hard to come by but damn, easily the hottest thing i've ever eatin.

It's a very very mild habanero chilli paste. Tastes ok though. For people not used to habanero it's a safe introduction. It's not very hot. They didn't go for super power though, most people wouldn't like it if they did.

I preffer not mixing in anything other than pure chilli in my sauces, any other ingredients you might like to add always taste much better if they are mixed in 'fresh' at the time of serving.

That's a great piece of advice. I'm always looking for ways to add chilli after I finish cooking so Nelly doesn't have to eat it. Unfortunately though I lose my tolerance after a while and have to rebuild again. The sacrafices of marriage :D

I really get Shi**y with maccas ads about how hot their sauce is. What a pack of tamperers! So hot even Ferni could eat it ;)

When I married my wife 10+ years ago, she hated hot food. I snuck very small amounts of chilli into everything I cooked gradually increasing it till she was addicted to endorphins. She now enjoys it far more than I do. :D

Nothing wrong with losing tollerance as getting it back is alot of fun too.

I love hot meals! Especially a nice hot curry. But unfortunately lately (as mentioned earlier) my taste buds and mouth can handle it, but my stomach HATES it. I get the worst gut aches. I'm pissed off because I like a good challenge. :glare:

I do hate when the curry reaches the 'other' end though :O

Exactly what happened to me

You cant keep doing it forever :ninja:

I was a chilli king. Ate 'em all & lots of. Friends used to get off in restaurants seeing what I could eat.

Now it really messes with my guts the next day.

Hey Pete, I got a chilli plant @ home that will make u run crying like a girl.

In fact, I challenge anyone to eat one of these babies.

I will shout a jug to anyone who can chew one, swallow it & not spew. :P

Ralph: "Wait, mister, you're drinking a candle. You don't want to get wax in your mouth, do you?"

Homer: [slyly] "Maybe I do, son. Maybe I do."

Chief Wiggum: "Afternoon, Homer. Care for some chili? I've added an extra ingredient just for you. The merciless peppers of Quetzylsaccatanango! Grown deep in the jungle primeval by the inmates of a Guatemalan insane asylum."

The Chilli debate - ahh yes. In my youth I was known to eat an orange habanero raw and with seeds on a dare - I fronted up to 'Monsieur Derango's Chilli Tequila Challenge' (although I didn't win) and I dabbled in some of the hotter sauces available ('Megadeath' sauce springs to mind....)

I even partook in son of rajab T's 'Chilli Con Carnage' prepared with the capsiceine powder that's triple sealed and not to be consumed in it's pure form. I have huddled in the corner in the foetal position with a 2 litre bottle of milk to make the pain go away and dreaded the 'Ring of Fire' the following day.

But these days are gone.

Nowadays I still like my hot food - nose sweat is a must - but I can also appreciate the different tastes and textures of the varieties of chillies. The smokiness of the Habanero, the piquant little Thai peppers. All have their joys and none are more supreme then the other. :P

      RB20 in need of modest love injection

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      As you're looking at using a Link ECU, then large injectors are not a problem. But there's not really any need to go 1000s on an RB20 unless you're planning >>600HP on E85, which would seem unlikely. There are other options for injectors. The Xspurt ones are available from a number of places and you can get them in the mid 600s and 725cc, which is probably a sensible place to be. These are all EV14 based. If you are not using the stock AFM (at all, which would be the case with a Link) then a large turbo intake pipe to suit the ATR turbos is not an obstacle, so you should use one instead of a highflow. Results will be better.

      RB20 in need of modest love injection

      By QB6SAGR · Posted

      Hey guys,  I'm after some advice and this here is the best place to get it imo. I was a member a looong time ago under another account, with a lost email address. Its nice to jump back on and see some of the same names still giving good advice.  I mothballed my car when i moved to perth in 2013, and after getting towed across the nullabor a few times it has officially done more km's on a trailer than under its own power. Now that i have started the process of tidying up and modifying it, i see the fruit available (and the fruiterers selling the produce) is different than back in the day. hence my questions, as i used to 'know' what to get and now, i'm not so sure. Engine wise the car (92 gtst) has a walbro 255, k+n, fmic, cam gears and and turbo back 3"exhaust. Wish list is a Hypergear high flow or ATR43G1, Link G4x and some newer injectors before a tune up. My goals are modest, only low 200's power wise. i know i could achieve this with less, but i've been swapping out old for new where i can. Every cooling hose has been replaced, along with mani gaskets, WP, thermostat and radiator, fuel pump and timing belt, tensioner and idler, and i rebuilt the steering rack. Regarding the injectors, the fruiterers all seem to sell what used to be considered quite large injectors. There are a lot of options for bosch 1000cc EV14's, and i would like to know if that is a suitable choice for my build. Is modern injector design good enough to run these at the low duty cycles that i likely would be? is there a downside to running a too large injector these days? or, would there be an upside to running a smaller injector at higher duty cycle? I can see that there are smaller injectors still available, but the ones i have seen specifically marketed for RB's are pretty large (see: https://golebysparts.au/collections/fuel-rail-injector-kits/products/nissan-rb20-fuel-rail-bosch-980cc-1150cc-injectors-turbosmart-fpr800-regulator-kit), and i dont know enough about them to say one not marketed for RB's would fit or not. I have searched the forums, and amongst all the posts on older tech, I did see gtsboy recommend EV14's, but no size was mentioned... again, i'm not clear on if the smaller size bosch injectors are also EV14's as they do look similar.  also, if someone can recommend a tuner familiar with RB's in the Geelong or West Melbourne area i'd appreciate it. Thanks in advance guys. Cheers, Rowdy

      R33 GTR lift points for hoist

      By Duncan · Posted

      FWIW the depth of the groove in the rubber pad is not super essential, the blocks are rubber and squish a bit. If you are worried an angle grinder will make a deeper groove quick smart

      R33 GTR lift points for hoist

      By GTSBoy · Posted

      I mean, if you were to move the jacking points away from the original location, that is, away from the wheels and closer to the centreline of the car, then it will be more likely to overbalance and tip off the supports. Same as we talked about before. I was talking about moving for-aft. If the sill is bent outward or inward, then the car would obviously look unstraight from the outside. Hopefully that hasn't happened either. Again, you can do comparative measurements from the chassis rails to see if there is much deflection.

      By sunsetR33 · Posted

      Can you elaborate what you mean with your first sentence? I meant move as in the bulge kinda seemed like it got pulled "outward" meaning it got pulled down and to the side with the jacking rail itself, so the load bearing bulge now sits lower than usual and is not level with the sill on the other side of the jack point. Either that or the jacking rail just got pushed in a good bit.
