[SHANE666]

hey Elliott,

welcome to the forums mate,

im in western sydney too, AND 18 too!

hope to see you around at some events and meets...

if you browse through the sections of this forum, you'll gradually become accustomed to the jargon associated with modifying your car. mostly everyone's happy to help with most things

Cheers,

Shane

[shanusr33]

fark i wish every1 would stop using my names! HAHAHA there's palmer, and now there's shane! WTF is going on

This thread was made for me!! You guys should be welcoming me or something!?

anyways, can't help with mods as I haven't done much engine work atm but any audio questions i can most likely assist i've gone a little crazy when it comes to my system etc.

enjoy

Thanks for the comments guys

[palmer]

hey guys got an update for ya's.

Just got the car back from the tuning today and its all going good

Heres a few pics:

Dyno Sheet too

222kw @ 8PSI

[bored33]

Thats HP not KW!

[palmer]

well that would make my skyline only put out 165RWKW. which is considerably low. spesh when a standard RB25DE (non turbo) puts out around 140 kW - 147 kW depending on VCT etc.

and the standard RB25DET puts out around 180ish or so KW at the rears (correct me if i'm wrong lol). So it cant be right.

bit off don't ya think?
