working all weekend :), no time to have a social life with friends anymore. I get every Wednesday and Thursday off, when all my mates are working.

Cant wait for my injectors & HID kit to arrive....injectors are going to be sitting around for awhile, need to save up for new turbo & hi flow cat, install of turbo/manifold/dump/hi flow cat/injectors/haltech/ & of course a tune. So car should be seeing about 250rwkw in 1-3 months *sigh* :/

one piece of advice Abe.....dont DIY with the injectors mate

i did mine and never doing it again....so much of a head f**k mate

it took me and a mate 2 weekends and all up around 24 or so hours to get it done

well it was the first time i had ever changed/replaced the injectors let alone on a RB25

ohh boy getting to those bolts to undo the fuel rail was a royal pain

so the thing that took most of the time was actually just unscrewing of the rail, taking it out without damaging things and putting the new ones in

ohh and the FPR didnt wanna come off the old one.....so had to source that as well

2 days to change some injectors aint bad. im up to 5 weeks changing a gasket! :rofl:

nothing like pacing yourself dave...lol

and please enlighten us to how much booze consumed in the process and cussing you managed so far ? lol

worse job on the car,, changing injectors for the first time,,,, scraped knuckles and lots of cussing... Nissan should have made the intake /throttle body area more GTR'ish on the RB25 to ease the pain slightly

we drank about 4 cartons of CC's and yes by the end of it i had no skin left on the knuckles

Anybody wanna play taxi for me tomorrow? :D

Gotta get my stag to Ministry of Bass by 10am, leave car there while I get back to work. I really don't want to get a cab ... I hate em.

Looking at going from South Road St Marys to Glen Osmond Road Eastwood at 10am to drop off Stag

Then Glen Osmond Road Eastwood to South Road St Marys at 4.30pm to pick up Stag

Don't need both directions/times. Even one will do. Will pay for fuel.

Anybody ... ? :rofl:

that may have been someone from your local post office.

the courier/aus post will try to deliver, and if it sits at the post office for a while post office staff will drop another slip off (but they wont have the package with them)

Damo, you have just demostrated a lack of knowledge of both myself and dan's car. Obviously you know nothing about our cars and what 300rwkw is like with our setup. My car is driven most days and has not seen a dyno in months apart from it's last tune. I think your small penis is blocking your memory mate, If you dont recall i have experience all kinds of turbo's with all types of setups, from stock power, to 200rwkw, to 260rwkw and now 300rwkw. It's ok...your just another Y-Generation punk you wants everything everyone else has right now when both dan and myself worked very hard to acomplish what we have today and when you can't get it or can't afford it, you bag them out to justify your lack of satisfaction in your own car. I would like to meet up with you sometime so you can say to both Dan and myself that our car's are only dyno queens and not suitable for the road. I would also like to take you for a drive through the hills and show you just how subtle or how aggressive you can be with 300+rwkw. It's obvious you haven't experienced it before. So before you go jumping at other people and bagging their pride and joy, just think that i've been in the game and had about 7-8 years behind the wheel of over 200+rwkw cars and done everything myself.

Thankyou.

as Ryan has said above^^^

both our cars have been through varies stages of turbo setup ups (myself 3rd), and the reason we have chosen to go a GT35/40 is because we both got use to the power the other turbos delivered and wasn't worried about lag

even though my engine is a forged built engine with cams...etc the turbo isn't much laggier (i prefer the big hit of boost)

i think it all comes down to how your car is tuned by the tuner aswell and what supporting mods u have

As i said earlier Ryans car is the best example of a rb25 i have seen of how to pull 300rwkw through a internally stock engine on BP ultimate

i tried but unfortuanly my tuner at the time leaned out my car on the dyno and blew piston 6 ringland, hence my rebuild

like Ryan im also willing to take whoever for a ride to feel how a "DAILY DRIVEN r33" 350+rWKW skyline feels like

both are cars are very STEALTH, just by looking at them from the outside you would never pick it

No this guy had my parcel (in van) because when I bolted out there and caught him before he fcked off I got my parcel. He says he knocked and no-one answered, but I was watching TV the whole time and he certainly didn't even walk up the path to the front door. Me being the diplomatic type (most of the time) couldn't be fk'ed arguing with the carnt.

go the backway via the hills through gawler ;)

Turns out I didnt have to work, but thats the way I go. The place I work is on the road between Tanunda and Lyndoch, but the office is at Nurioopta. Its a good drive, so yeah on a normal day I do go that way :D Its mega cold up there though, my last shift my heater wasnt hot until Lyndoch and my windscreen getting fogged up on the outside because frost was forming.

On another note, I think something has just blown (or about to blow up) in the 'line. yesterday it stalled once, today about 10 times and it blows blue/white smoke after I floor it (like on gearchange) :D

    • I've been pondering this, I really enjoy the convertible thing, for me, it's like riding a motorbike, without all the issue of riding a motorbike, mainly, my old sore arthritic joints getting beaten up, and, being able to do it in shorts and a T-shirt and not needing a helmet and all the other gear required, especially like wearing jackets and pants in the summer, or needing 6 layers of cloths in the winter, or not having wet weather gear handy when your 100km away from home on the bike when it decides to start raining As for the hard top and its Coupe look, whilst I do lose all that open top feeling that I really enjoy, from my experience with the NB with a detachable hard top, the cabin is a much nicer place to be, the difference in noise for one, a hard top quietens down the interior, alot, with the soft top up or down it's pretty noisy, which, after 5 or so hours, can get tiring But, as you stated, the detachable hard top totally changes the look of the car, in a really good way, and for me, the look of a detachable hard top is so much better than the PRHT which looks more like a after thought with its weird bulbous rear roof line For me, the minimal effort of putting in on, or storing it after removing it, is well worth the time and effort for the look alone And yes, I'm sure the next owner will be grateful for it as well.......  
    • I get into huffs with people when I suggest the MX5 looks so much better as a coupe than it does as convertible. Pretty sure I don't prefer the convertible version of anything. Good job on the hardtop! The next buyer will appreciate.
    • IMO wrap does have its uses, but like you said, quality wrap, and professional installation, would probably cost want a quality paint job does, but, the paint, if maintained, is basically for life, and much easier to touch up if required  In other news: it's pissing down here, with thunder, lightning and only some small hail "at this stage", luckily all "my" cars are undercover  I've also been contacted by a guy in Newcastle about the SS, he said he will come down next weekend for a look, we'll see how that transpires I guess 🫰
    • Nah, I'm not an a-hole, ha ha!   I do like the colour match. Some of the carbon fibre wraps are quite freaking horrible. There's one a local company I know uses, and it looks damn good! Also very very expensive per metre to buy! ha ha ha It might be cheaper to respray the roof than use the good CF Wrap, ha ha!
    • Please noooooooo 😭 As for wrap, no thank you mate, I've seen and used "carbon fibre" wrap before, and for these hard tops, they look soooo good when colour matched Like this >>>
