reminds me of a cricket scene from comedy inc where the rangas are in the changeroom ready to bat, but no one wants to go outside in the sun, everytime ones goes out they leave a ball on middle then run back :)

well the aircon in the house just broke lol

looks like im sleeping in the pool

pool or the beach is a awesome idea

apparently there is going to be sea breezes in the afternoon

still not enough to cool the in land....so pretty much embrace for a warm night tonight

If the Americans still don't believe in global warming i think we should bring them over here and strap them to a cricket pitch. Last year was the longest period of consecutive days above 40 on record and this year is looking like it's going to be up there as well.

P.S. i want winter back again. Not that we really get winter anymore

thats what happens when you sell shit quality gear, then jbhifi comes along and sells better for cheaper lol

definatly go mate, think about prodigy closing the boiler room........

lol can you say yum cha brands

haha boiler room will certainly live up to its name and to think that I worked so many of them throughout the 90's.......NEVER AGAIN!!

Did you say digital rectum thermometer?!.........it'd be hotter than 58 deg up there buddy boy :D:P

It's currently 45 deg out there Steve.....hottest January day in 70 years apparently!

defiantly 58degs on the roof i used one of these to take the reading

so, ill be re-painting my aquarium cabinet before i set it up, whats the best way to prep it?

spend the time sanding, including the crevices a fiddly bits (alot of work :P)

or give it a light sand, wood primer, then paint?

seeing as i have some time onb my hands and the shed isnt much warmer then the house, i might as-well get started!

    • Hey guys been looking everywhere to try and find the correct gtr hood latch support part number but only found the first half and when I search with that number it sends me to an r34. The first part I found was 62515. If anyone could help me with the rest then I’d really appreciate it. Or if there’s some alternative hood latch support that would work even better cause I can’t find any for sale. (Searched on upgarage, partsouq,buyee,rhdjapan) 
    • If you've only done the upper control arms on the rear, AND you have changed their length (by more than about 1mm) to set the camber you want, then you will definitely need/want to install traction arms also. Adjusting the camber arms on their own WILL introduce bump steer and make the car unpleasant to drive. Most owners have no idea that their car could behave infinitely better than what they put up with. I'm not entirely sure what the Stageas need, but I am thinking that unless you have massive front spring rates and pretty soft rear springs, you have waaaay too much rear bar. Oversteer city, in my estimation. Combined with possible excessive bump steer from maladjusted arms, that could be a recipe for nastiness. ATR43SS2 is not a highflow. It is an outright replacement turbo. It's a little bit bigger than the largest highflow profile that Tao does. Probably a solid 300rwkW turbo where the bigger highflows will be about 30-40rwkW less. Nevertheless, we're only talking about ~300 rwkW, which is well within the abilities of the stock ECu to run with a Nistune on board. I would do so without hesitation - and I will be doing so when I get my finger out and actually get the injectors and AFM installed. But, if you would prefer to drop a whole lot more money on the ECU side, then I suspect you're looking at Haltech. The Haltech fanbois here will all spout on about all the available engine protection you can have, that you can't have with the Nistune option. And they're right. But it doesn't really come for free either. You will spend more money on extra sensors and the like, plus the work to install them. If the engine was built and therefore represented a big investment to protect, then I'd say definitely do it. If you view the current (and forever into the future) shortage of replacement engines as something to prompt similar protection, then also, do it. If you see a destroyed RB25 as an opportunity to put in a Mercedes or other V12 (like I kinda do)... then your perception of the risk/reward might differ. These are good injectors. You can also get a "better" set of the same with more flow matching, for more $$. 1000cc is where you will want to be. You will need an R35 AFM and adapter tube if you want to stay with Nistuned stock ECU. Otherwise, if going Haltech, you can ignore. As for intercooler. Just about anything will do. You're only talking about ~300rwkW. Just put a big core in there. Be aware that return flows do add significant pressure drop and will cost power and will make the turbo work harder to achieve the same goals. If you can manage a proper crossflow, do it. I'm keeping my very good return flow because I'm only expecting to be in the ~250rwkW range, and will live with whatever outcome I get.
    • I have a heap that i have collected if you want some authentic ones still. Pm me if your interested!
