Just spotted RB26T at the 1000 steps. That's one clean R32 mate, i like!

lol just went to post spotted a white 34 at 1000 steps 2day,

bit too late to park in ya bay for closer look cause i already missed the entry..

Spotted UNR33L today driving off after finishing work I assume. Had someone in the passenger seat I think?

I was driving the opposite way past you just as you took off from where you park.. was going to honk but didn't think you'd realise because I was driving the Commodore today!

TJ on westall rd and then turning onto cheltenham. saw you behind me most of the way, but you didn't respond to honks when you passed me you bastard.

LOL

Ironically got spotted by charles later on, but didnt see him. dude if you see this, thats my new number. i barely use the old one

Maybe I was following you home again :blush:

Lols, anyway number added :P

OMFG! You're stalking me!

And yeah I did, the f*cker held me up for ages. So I honked and road raged out my window. Didn't see you though?

LOL

i work at the mechanics across the road from where you pulled out! i just heard a horn then looked out that way and saw it was you haha

which area? i was around SE / knox suburbs all day today cos of TAFE in the morning

friday is my day off work :cheers:

Saw a white r33 series 2 gtst thrashing the shit out of their car going from Ferntree Gully Road onto Burwood hwy in FTG around 9:30pm I think.

You cant turn from ferntree gully road onto burwood hwy, they run parallel to each other :cheers:

Oh yeah, I think you mentioned once before. The radiator place?

My '34 has very loud horns :cheers:

Oh haha I meant Thursday evening as you were leaving work, you were just pulling out of your parking spot where I always see your car lol. First time I've had a spotting of the driver :cheers:

There was a white R34 coupe a few cars behind me on St Helena Rd up to Karingal Rd in Eltham at about 5:45pm. Don't see many around close to my area on my daily journey to and from work.. anyone from here?

nah not the radiator place the mechanics there...its a Repco workshop.

the radiator guy isnt there anymore. been gone for about 6 months

    • Hi guys, has anyone either purchased or built themselves a rotisserie for their car before? I can only just justify the need for one hence why I should just make one but at the same time, if I make one I can kiss another 4 weeks of potentially productive car working time goodbye because I'm building a bloody rotisserie....  I mainly want it for the application of the body deadener.  Cleaning the old stuff off, priming and then colour over the deadener doesn't worry me, it's just the application using the Schutz Gun that I feel would achieve a significantly better finish painting it side on and keeping the Schutz Gun upright.  I don't think they would work well on the side let alone almost upside down for some areas.  If the product I use (Terosun, etc) could work through a HVLP ok then it might be ok to apply without the rotisserie.   I can get one of these style ones for about $1200 which is pretty good value-     I reckon if I made one it would cost around $500 but it's more the time that it would take is more of a killer than the cost.  They look to hold their value pretty well second hand so I could always sell it after using it and realistically only lose $200-$300 at worst.  Or keep it and buy another project when this one finally sees the light of day... Anyone selling one...? Cheers!  
    • While it is a very nice idea to put card style AFMs into the charge pipe (post intercooler, obviously), the position of the AFM and the recirc valve relative to each other starts to become something that you really have to consider. The situation: The stock AFM is located upstream the turbo, and the recirc valve return is located between the AFM and the turbo inlet, aimed at the turbo inlet, so that it flows away from and not through the AFM. Thus, once metered air is not metered again, neither flowing forwards, or backwards, when vented out of the charge pipe. When you put the AFM between the turbo outlet and the TB, there is a volume of pressurised charge pipe upstream of the AFM and there is a volume of pressurised pipe downstream of the AFM. When the recirc valve opens and vents the charge pipe, air is going to flow from both ends of the charge pipe towards the recirc valve. If the recirc valve is in the stock location, then the section between it and the TB doesn't really matter here - you're not going to try to put the AFM in that piece of pipe. But the AFM will likely be somewhere between the intercooler and the recirc valve, So the entire charge pipe volume from that position (upstream of the AFM, back through the intercooler, to the turbo outlet) is going to flow through the AFM, get registered as combustion air, cause the ECU to fuel for it, but get dumped out of the recirc valve and you will end up with a typical BOV related rich spike. So ideally you want to put the AFM as close to the TB as possible (so, just upstream of the crossover pipe, assuming that the stock crossover is still in use, or, just before the TB if an FFP is being used) and locate the recirc valve at the turbo outlet. Recirc valve at the turbo outlet is the new normal for things like EFRs anyway. In the even of a recirc valve opening dumping all the air in the charge pipe, pretty much all of it is going to go backwards, from the TB to the recirc valve near the turbo outlet. But only a small portion of it (that between the TB and the AFM) will pass through the AFM, and it will pass through going backwards. The card style AFMs are somewhat more immune to reading flow that passes through them in reverse than older AFMs are, so you should absolutely minimise the rich pulse behaviour associated with the unavoidable outcome of having both a recirc valve and an AFM in the charge pipe.
    • Yep, in my case as soon as I started hearing weird noises I backed off the tension until it sounded normal again. Delicate balance between enough tension to avoid that cold start slip and too much damaging things.
    • I'm almost at a point where I feel like changing the alternator. Need to check the stuff you mentioned first though.
