Youre welcome Paul... It must be because of the brilliant detailing job done by some awesome people on the night :rofl:

Nice Pics Bullet!!!!

Im glad you had a good time..well worth the trip??

I hope you will get involved with Auto Salon again next year..

Did they say anything about the tyres from Federal???

Thanks, yeah it was definately worth the trip... I love Sydney and I love Autosalon so its win win :D

Im there next year for sure, but I'll have few more goodies on the car by then :yes:

The officials didnt say anything about displaying the tyres or the flyers/banner, I think that we were just small enough to get under the radar luckily, but we had the Buddyclub stand next us too so maybe they thought it was a part of theirs... Either way it all went well. :P

That's great to hear!!! :woot: Did the misses have a good time?

I loved your car at Texikhana and want your stripe!!!!I will be getting something similar soon :)

See now that is good news, and maybe we can get away with it again next time!!

Yeah the Missus loves Sydney too, she's getting into Autosalon more and more every year we go so no problems there.

Thanks ;) I love my car too... I had that stripe made up by a mate of mine who is a sign writer, only cost me $150.00 and he put it on (looks very proffesional that way) but Im not sure where you can buy one off the shelf, you might have to shop around some sign writers and see if they will make and apply one for you.

Just make sure that its a different colour to mine - you wouldnt want to be classed as a "strap on" would you? :nyaanyaa:

hmm i got about 800 shots..who wants a peep? (my mrs deleted all the ones with the mamma's in them so nothing for the spank bank unless you like dig hot paint, chrome wheels, belly-dragging chassis' and leather interior haha)

arhhh cuttt damn your mrs!

RH9 made 1066hp at the wheels to win the Hp award... I think its about 795kw... Using NOS.

Not bad at all but I think that Twoogle was the most impressive - making 502kw with low mount turbos and no NOS. :P

    • I currently have a 2008 370GT Coupe, with the big brakes (Akebeno if I'm correct), and Its coming time to get new pads. Previously, I had a 2003 350GT Coupe with the stock sized brakes, not Brembos. I had custom wheels on it that were pretty open to the brakes, and when I first put the wheels on it, the rims where completely coated with brake dust. A few years after adding the new rims, I needed to change to pads on that car. I didn't do any research, but I told the mechanic of the problem with the brake dust. I also told him I didn't track the car or even drive around the streets harshley. But the dust was an issue. The mechanics changed the pads to a different compound, and the dust was GONE! The other change I noted was that when coming to a complete stop, instead of having to press harder on the pedal as I approached 0kph, I had to actually lift off a little to not come to a hard jerky stop.( My unfounded explanation is they became stickier as they heated by stopping ) Since I got my 370gt with big brakes, I noticed that that as I came closer to stopping, I had to press harder and harder to reach a full stop. I am not talking about hard, just harder. I brought the car in from another state, so when I had a blue slip done, I asked the mechanic what he thought of the brakes, and he thought they were brilliant. The only negative of these pads on the 350GT, was that they squealed when cold. So driving out of a shopping center carpark, it was a little embarrassing, as the brakes squealed, and I am sure people thought that I needed new brakes, when they were actually fresh. I have no idea of what type of compound they were on the 350gt, but whatever it was, I want to get the exact same on my 370GT. They weren't ridiculously expensive, and were replaced at the local JAX (which is no longer open), so I am certain they would be a pretty common big brand, off the shelf type/brand. My current mechanic suggested I need top get the rear pads changed soonish, but he suggested standard Brembo pads. Which I expect to behave the same as the current ones and not like the ones on the 350GT.  I don't think dust will be an issue on the 370GT. With the behaviour I describe above on the 360GT, does anyone have a suggestion of pad material that will act like the change I had done on the 350GT?
    • The consult isn't even OBD1. It's a Nissan Consult. Proprietary.   Re read everything I've said. I specifically say, put down the laptop/tablet. Understand, and review the issue first. Logging voltages is the same as logging the converted value. Things like O2 that you say to log, is unusable for this, whether it be the voltage, or the value the ECU thinks.   The fact you don't know how to diagnose without looking at the computer, is exactly what I've said multiple times is the issue for why techs these days can't diagnose the fun issues with cars.
    • Breather for it. If it's anything like the GTRs it should run up to the top of a bellhousing bolt.
    • What basics? With these OBD1 ECUs it's not like the ECU will give you any real clues, it's not really doing any sanity checking of sensors/sensor data. My experience is actually a lot of sensors tend to be the source of the issue first and foremost, and checking everything gives you a direction to investigate. MAF/O2/STFT/LTFT should all kind of make sense. You can try little tricks of the trade like tapping the MAFs to see if it triggers a stumble, things like that. But once you've done a compression test knowing whether you have an air leak or fuel delivery problem is kind of hard to narrow down without sensor data. And you don't really know if all your sensors are making sense unless you can interrogate the ECU directly about what it's seeing for sensor data.
    • Absolutely this. Yes, except not vacuum hose. Something oil/fuel safe is a better idea.
