I find 7000km is pretty much it for mine.

It tends to develop a little lifter tick first thing if the oil isn't changed at 5k.

I run plain old 8100 5w40. Motors now done 90,000km's still top compression, bores still look tops and no deposits in the top end.

Dam straight Damo would rather do SAU them heroin gts4 are 4.1 because they share the same parts from the gtr i think r32 gtst is 4.3 because of the lack of torque from the rb20

Same here.

I run with Motul 8100 and get it changed every 5,000kms.

is motul 8100 ok for rb25det i was tossing up between that and motul turbolight i think its 4100

I was told that if your changing the oil every 5,000kms then 8100 is fine. If the change is only every 10,000kms then 4100 is better, but its double the price.

Do the maths, same price in the end for the 10,000kms change(s), but fresher oil more often is better (every 5,000kms). :P

Not always. I had a dodgy filter on my old 180, tried the old hammer and screwdriver trick, managed to rip through the oil filter and rip it in half. After lots (lots) of cursing I got it off in the end :P

Be careful if you park your cars in the Ascott Park/ Parkholme area. I left my car parked on the street outside of grandmas while i fixed her car yesterday afternoon only to find some fk had loosened some of my wheel nuts. I very much doubt whomever did it was trying to steal my wheels as I'm only rolling on stockies atm.

me and the m issus just went for a walk to the local shops,

on the way, a red/maroon ED falcon come speeding eound the corner, massive understeer, nearly collecting my girlfriend on the foot path.

i let him have it with a few words that start with F and C...

as he was takin off, he slammed on his brakes leavin a good 15 mtr skid mark, stuck his head outta the window and yells

out ''You got a fckn problem?''

as soon as i started walking toword this skum bag prick, he floored it and took off,

lucky my missus got his rego, and i reported him to the cops.

is this what the world is coming to? cant even walk to the local shop without f**k wanks like this

getting in your way?

i tell ya what, with the adrenalin i had after he nearly ran over my girlfriend, he is lucky he took

off, call me a key board warrior if you must, but i know you would do the same.

:P

ouch the crash of the dollar has to hurt is it worth selling up the rest of them before just in case and if it doesnt crash re buy them back before they go up again

i was considering selling, but ive had the portfolio since before i knew what the market was, it seems like a lot to sell.

even Wall Street in 1984 recovered...........unless you'll be retiring in a couple of years, leave it alone

haha, it is basically my retirement fund.

thats another reason im reluctant to sell, hit a pretty epic slump on friday, but im quietly confident it'll crawl back up. made back a few thousand today, so im pretty happy.

:P

Just sit tight. It will recover. Those who will sufer will be those shifting their interests around.

Its the fools who panic and move things around who make the ripples in our economy worse.

yeah, i dunno wanna go f**k myself even more by moving my shit around, its worked pretty good for me so far, so i know i shouldnt change it, but shit, when you see that much disappear, you dont think so well. :)

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      Once the airbag is off, to remove the steering wheel.... Undo the 2 plugs into the clock spring, and the horn connector from it's clip. Hit the 19mm nut with a rattle gun (preferably) or if you don't' have one, you probably want an assistant to hold the wheel in place while you use a breaker bar to undo the nut Then, screw the nut back on 3 turns, and pull the wheel sharply towards you. If that doesn't work hit it medium force with a rubber mallet on either side, or possible behind if you can get there. If that all fails (it shouldn't!) you might need a steering wheel puller

      Duncan's V37.......race car?

      By Duncan · Posted

      So, to next task....the carbon fibre steering wheel was either an expensive factory option or a chinesium special. Either way, I don't like either the flat bottom or thick ring style, so it had to go So...to remove the steering wheel.... First, disconnect battery negative and stop on the brake pedal for a few seconds. Then, remove the small circular covers on each side of the wheel's rear surround to uncover the airbag clips. You need to push something like a flat bladed screw driver through, you need to push the steel clip inwards and pull the side of the airbag forward. Once you've done the easy side, same on the centre console side. You can see the tab you are shooting for circled in red Then, disconnect the horn spade connector and for the yellow airbag plug you need to get something small under the black locking tab to pop it out, then the connector releases......airbag is off

      GReddy Injector Help!

      By Duncan · Posted

      Ultimately, if the tip is not far into the runner and the o-ring seals, then you are in business. Have you applied pressure to it as is? It is not really a problem for the injector to twist once it is bolted down, the oring seals it and you don't want it jambed into the oring too hard The plenum is intended to take multiple size lower injectors with different adapters, but the way you have it is fine if they seal.
