...gry???


Recommended Posts

aggry -- a glass bead found buried in the earth in Ghana.

puggry -- a light scarf wound around a hat or helmet to protect. the head from the sun.

meagry -- of meager appearance.

puggry -- an Indian turban; a scarf worn around a sun helmet.

mawgry -- from Old French: being regarded with displeasure.

aggry -- colored glass beads worn by Africans.

anhungry -- an obsolete word for hungry that is allowed to stay in the dictionary because it shows up in Shakespeare.

Apparently the origin of this riddle was a simple trick of word play. It was meant to be spoken, not written, as the secret to the riddle was in mis-hearing the clue. The riddle went like this:

There are three words in the English language that end in g or y (sounds like "gry"). Angry and hungry are two. What is the third word in the English language. Everyone knows what it is and uses it everyday. The answer (another trick) to "What is the third word in "the English language," to noone's great surprise, is "language."

The riddle, as posted here, represents a real life example of the old "broken telephone" game almost everyone has played in school.

There's a crap load of stuff about the "gry" words on the net! Some people have way too much time on their hands :( :lol:

hrmm.. I was really looking at getting the GT25 Internals in the Std Housing for around 2k but Tilbrooks/JMS have said they arn't that good.

Bill (who does the turbo's) said that he was unsure why it only made 196rwkw with a fully tuned ecu on a RB20DET, he said for some reason it just died in the arse end up top, it should have been good for 210rwkw running 17 psi approx.

He said to me that for the same price he could do it in the RB25DET Housing which hopefully should fix the problem, he also said that different cars make different power hence some not good.

It would have to run around 17-18psi to make over 200rwkw.

Tilbrooks did say that ATS's turbo's had to run to much boost to make decent power.

They also said go a HKS 2530 if you can find it as they are heaps better quicker spooling just a better turbo all over.

Or go a HKS2510 and you will make pretty much just on 200rwkw max.

HKS Turbo's new are around $3500-4000 apparently. :eek:

hrmm.. ppls?? Any Idea's?

    • All I can say Duncan is good luck and I hope that Neil did not run any E85 in Cheryl. I have recently experienced the full spectrum of fuel tank issues in my R33's that had been caused by E85 and contaminated fuel. When you take the cover off the top of the tank and have a look inside you will get an understanding of how easy it will be. Best case situation is clean fuel with minimal contamination. My GTR was like this and it was a very simple operation to just grab the fuel pump carrier bracket and slide it up and out of the tank. My three GTS_T's had different levels of fuel contamination that was probably caused by E85 in the fuel.  In the worst case all of the metal components in the tank had rusted to the point where there were pieces of rusted metal swirling around in the tank. This required the removal of the exhaust, the tailshaft, the complete rear cradle and the fuel tank. The components in the tank were that rusted that it took days to get the fuel pump carrier and the mounting brackets out of the tank. When the tank was finally cleaned, everything inside the tank had to be replaced. With the tank all back together I could then reinstall it in the car along with everything else that had to come out. Good luck and I hope that you find a clean tank.    
    • It is a two door. It is black and also still has the OEM wheels and stereo. Exact model would be KR_R32RGFEL_SS According to GTR-Registry.com is a 2 Door Coupe; RB20DE; 2WD no HICAS; MT.F5; (11L) Projector Headlamps and Fog Lights; (12_) Electronic Active Full Auto Air Con (Climate Control); (13-14SS) V Selection -- Which seems to be accurate description of my variant. Will try to upload a few pictures soon. The OEM wheels look like the below image. Image is taken from the goo-net-exchange website.

    • Welcome Gabriel. At least your car has a glorious RB and not the shitty CA18. As MBS206 mentioned all the good bits can be added later. Two doors or four?
    • And half of them have been converted to turbos.
