Going for my lunch break at Cox's road, on the way home we stop for fuel.

Just sittin there chattin and hear this screching, then see a taxi push a van past the bowsers, the taxi smash's into the bowsers totally stuffing it up, fuel starts pissing out everywhere... then the taxi goes off into the road and nearly has a head on with another car (it kinda looked like his throttle was jammed open)

I yelled to my mate, Get the F out of here, fuel is pissing out everywhere, we leave and see the taxi man at the set of lights turning left onto epping road and his taxi was making all weird noises.

I think the man was pissed off cos the van might have pushed in the bowser

farrk that was weird.

yeah T7824....

I got a good look at his face at the servo, i know what he looks like. might call up see if they could need any more info.

man thats crazy. :P

did you get the taxi's number or something?

Yeah he totally smashed the bowser to pieces, it looked like the bowser lifted off the ground. (don't think it did)

he was stuck in a queue in traffic. Maybe he realised what he just done and was thinking what to.

I was not hanging around, stuff that. GTFO of there no point hanging around a servo where a couple of bowsers are pissing out fuel.

What??? so the taxi didn't do the runner after ramming the van?

He just goes and waits at the next set of lights? WTF

What did the van guy do?

Good idea on getting the F outta there.

when we passed the taxi, the guy looked really nervous, and you know in GTA, when the car is about to blow up and it makes a noise? the taxi sounded like that. it was soo weird....

felt like getting out of the car and grabbing him out of the car and telling him to go back, but you never know how crazy the guy could be, maybe he is armed or something....

    • Gday, Due to not finding much up to date info on this topic I thought I'd make a thread to get peoples latest opinions/recommendations. Background info -  I've got a S1.5 R33 GTST as a fun project car, mainly for street use and occasional drag strip, apart from all the cosmetic things I'll be doing a full rebuild of the engine with forged internals. Since it'll be getting new cams (kelford) and springs to match I thought I might as well get new lifters and valves while I'm at it, the dash says 160k KMs but the engine seems pretty tired, compression measures about 130psi across all cylinders so I'd like to freshen everything up. This is where I'm tempted to just fork out the extra and go solid lifters while it's all apart, aiming for 400-450kw atw with a flex tune. Assuming all supporting mods (oiling, fuel and all bolt ons) with a lightly ported head and turbo to match (yet to make a decision possibly gtx3582r or similar from Hypergear) I've seen the Tomei kits with just the buckets getting around, Supertech sells most things - Supertech High Performance Cam Followers | Trusted Racing Cam Followers Questions -  Has anyone found the Hydraulic lifters to limit them at this power level? Is it usually found that you can just clean the stock lifters and find they work fine?  Does going solid lifters save any headaches/issues with hydraulic lifters in the future? Any recommendations on other things that will need to be replaced, I know I'll need to get the solid profile cams but can you use the same type of valves and springs/retainers and is it recommended to change the guides and stem seals?    Summary -  Basically looking for pros/cons and wanna know if I'll actually need the extra RPMs from solid lifters or it'll just be bragging rights to say it ReVs OvEr 8000 Cheers
    • Ha ha ha, this stuff they had was installing Toshiba PLCs that were made some time in the 1990s, and they were replacing GEM80 PLCs. To let those two talk (staged upgrade along a ~1.2km long building that was split into 4 sections), was a bunch of WinXP machines running Java gateways... There was no way to put something like ProfiSafe in... Most of the HMI machines were WinXP, with Java program, with a custom button board emulating a keyboard... About the only buttons in the operator stations that went direct to the PLCs was the eStop. There was some interesting design stuff in that place...
    • Stock bypass valves are good for plenty of boost.
    • Check for fuel flow out of the outlet end of the rail. Check for spark. Try to start with aerostart (or pressure can brake cleaner or similar solvent in a car) prayed in through TB. If you have fuel and you have spark and it will fire on substitute fuel, then seriously suspect that E85 sitting for ages in your fuel system has destroyed something and put it in your injectors.
    • Nissan stock oil pressure is typically about 1 bar at 1000 rpm plus about 1 bar per thousand revs on top.
