anyone one who can weld my bov in for me?

1. A good place to get my car tuned .... dyno or just normally tuned... prefably cheap as I'm on a tight budget. I know i should be stingy on my car. however I'm on a budget for now. So yeah

2. Good panel beater because few minor body work required ... Cheap one too if possible lol (i'm sad i know) ... or anyone who does it like amatuer at their house. I will still pay

3. ANYONE who will let me drive to their house and teach me how to take the door lining and the plastic bit around like the air conditioner, head unit etc.... out and teach me how to spray paint it Silver. I blew up my clock too. anyone can help me with that

4. Any car cruises or drags happening the brisbane/gold coast area. I'm very keen

turbo timers and boost controlers can be found both cheap and expensive, depending on what you want from them.

and THE man for skylines is gavin woods at labrador, pretty much everyone here will vouch for him. he has done some work on my car, he really knows his stuff on skylines.

WAYNE - is there an actual club for red skylines LOL. sweetas and i really really really wanted tat head unit :D (okay I'll stop sulking now)

BELGARION - yeah I've heard plenty of good wraps about GAvin Woods, will get car dyno done when all mods r in ... u know how much it'll be setting me back? DO u know anyone with TT or boost controllers for sale, I just want a basic TT - doesnt bother me, however for the boost i want the design where i can change the boost at a flick of a switch in my interior - thats sik!

NISOMAN18 - Yeah I tried ... but i heard a crack and I Blew my clock up and the (beeping when ur door is open) STOPPED WORKING. So yeah I know I've fcuked up somewhere, thats why I've stopped. I dont have any mates with skylines sooo no one can really help me :( U wanna help me??? kekekeke

Ill help u if u want, ull have to come down ere though ;). i dont know how u blew ur clock up, did u check ur fuses? i carry like 50 fuses everywhere i drive now cos i blow fuses on a constant basis (neons and shit)

narh I dont think so ...... there's warning beep when u leave ur lights on and take ur key out, and beeps when driver side door is open ...... good safety device so u dont kill ur battery. I know I fcuked it up somehow. forgot to turn my lights on the day i had went for my manual license (YES i bought the car before i got my license) and the battery died. I STRESSED! but then pushed start my car and let the battery charge a little bit and went for my exam. BTW anyone here know a guy with a red r32 name Coco? I got my license btw ... pretty happy. I did my driving exam in my skyline, and the examiner didnt even ask 'who drove me here' ... sooo lucky i got a nice guy.

    • 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.
    • 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  
    • 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
    • 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.
    • 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.
