You sold my mate Ben a subbie recently (he picked it up Monday I believe) after some snags with the hid globes and compliance?

He took me for a spin around the block in it ... sweet ride the Blitzen!. Then I took him in my Stagea :(

spotted myself broken down at 2am this morning T_T

Flat battery?

On the topic of spotting ourselves - spotted myself being pulled over by cops at 3am near Newton with 2 wasted mates in the back. I had my full license for 3 hours and they pulled me over because I showed up as having an expired license! Then she realised her system hadn't updated yet to relfect the change that I'm on my fulls now, so she was all fine with it! She didn't even take a second look at the car! Woo!

If it still has the "exhaust by Hoover" on it, I'm not surprised :)

Lol Kristian - it's actually getting worse! It sounds even more horrible then it did 8 months ago! I've even got my mechanic onto me now saying "Hurry up and change it! Then it will actaully put out decent figures on the dyno and have a decent sound!"

Don't worry though, I've had a full turbo-back system all quoted up and will be getting it installed in January! I can't afford it any earlier :)

But in the mean time, the Hoover is still chugging along the streets!

Oops sorry, missed this one. Yeah I just spoke to him on the phone - he's forgotten the wait now, funnily enough. People never believe me when I say that once they get the car they'll forget about how long it took to arrive. That car gave me so many headaches, I'm quite happy he's got it too. Very, very nice car - I drove it a fair bit in Japan lol.

Ben and I use to work together. He's now running his own consultancy and I'm helping him get the books in order and manage the business to his best ability. He loved my auto, so I advised him to see MV Auto for the shift kit. Which was about the only complaint he had about the car :laugh:

I told him if he ever needed anyone to look after the subbie whilst he's away on surfing trips ... :ninja:

Got the thumbs up from a guy in a fairly stock looking silver s2 last night on south road hill, anyone on here?

and this afternoon I spotted a white p-plate 34 GT-T on Pananlatinga road, it had a nismo sticker above the headlight.

    • Thanks for the reply, So i've continued playing around, and fitted the injector adaptors onto the injector, the fuel rail is not able to be mounted now as the injectors sit a bit further out. I suppose the point of the adaptors is so that the injector nozzle isn't so deep into the intake? I suppose 1mm extra on the o-ring would do it but still can't mount the rail onto the intake haha. Waiting on a reply from Aeroflow I'm sure there's something stupid that I'm missing...
    • I have a radium fuel rail on my Greddy manifold and used the supplied radium fuel injector to manifold adapters (The round green things pictured). I did always wonder if you could just go ahead and use the second lower hole like you're doing... Wouldn't thicker o-rings solve your issue?    
    • From what I've seen and experienced first hand with those powder extinguishers, they're good to use to break a window and escape the car, and half the time then do f**k all to stop a fire. You just need much more than 1KG worth of powder. Not to mention, half the time it's an engine bay fire, and you can't easily, and do not want to completely open the bonnet, so you're left pretending to be an American Infantry... Spray and Pray baby!   And then 100% that shit is really destructive afterwards!   Realistically, those little ones at a race track might help you keep the fire from growing and give the fire marshal / truck a chance to actually get to you with their multiple large bottles.   For a road car, these days, prepare to deboard as quickly as humanly possible, and move to safety. Allow insurance to fix replace it (unless it's like a rare classic etc, then do nearly everything possible to save it!) Keep the little extinguisher with you to help protect other things around you from burning while you stand there singing "How can we sleep while our beds are burning?"   Secondly, powder extinguishers I freaking hate for indoor use, (this isn't really relevant to a car) as you will get a powder fog around you, and it can be disorientating.   When I did fire training when at BlueScope Steel, they have (had?) their own fire brigade on site. We did all the training, and at the end we were told, "If it's an indoor fire, and you need to use a powder extinguisher, we as the fire brigade would rather you just exit the building, you're more likely to get lost in the smoke and powder fog than do much help, so just GTFO" And pretty much that was what they said for most other fires too, grab extinguisher, if it's much more than paper in a bin fire, use extinguisher to get you and others out of the building to safety...   Part of me wishes when my Skyline caught alight many moons ago, I let insurance sort it out, instead of putting the fire out... part of me now says "But I've saved a classic before it was a classic!"
    • Hi all,  I have a older model of the Greddy Front facing intake on an RB25DET NEO Head. I've bought aeroflows fuel rail and injector kit (1000cc Bosche injectors) and I'm unsure if the fitment is correct. The injector o-rings fit in the intake hole but it's not snug. I can very easily rotate the injectors even when the fuel rail is mounted. The kit also came with multiple adaptors, they dont make it any more snug and using them raises the injectors up and i cant mount the fuel rail. I hope this makes sense I've asses a few photos.    Thanks so much guys.
