Also John hows the SSQ

big, shiny, heavy. waiting for me to obtain tools to put it on. The other one is big, not as shiny, slightly heavier, and waiting for me to talk to Dan about where/how to attach that one (it goes into a pipe somewhere).

Once I've given them both a bit of a thrashing I'll let you know how they work out :(

also - for those who are up on the current what's what with my car.

I'm just waiting on my boost gauge to arrive in the mail :(

allllllso - for anyone to field. Do I really NEED an aftermarket ECU to hit the 300 killerwasps mark?

yeah you do, the stock ecu will start being gay before then, especially given that you will need to change injectors...but the only reason i suggested vipec was because you mentioned getting rid of the afm, if you are happy to keep the afm nistune it.

soooo......

Avatar is a complete piece of boring ass shit. Only good thing about it was getting to see that silly mole Michelle Rodriguez die again. Predictable rehashed phone in hack of a movie.

How do I go about getting back the 2hs 41mins of my life? Does anyone have a flux capacitor?

Avatar's not THAT bad... its the same old story... boy meets girl, boy overcomes challenge, boy gets girl... Pocahontas anyone?

The 3D was pretty I just wish they made 300 in 3D...

head.......... assplode....

so many different ways.

Ok. This week = nistune vs vipec study. Hopefully brain doesn't melt down.

Thanks Andy. I was leaning towards GTR injectors. They should be ok shouldn't they?

nistune is a lot cheaper and more than capable, vipec has a lot of stuff you will probably never use. if you are happy with keeping the AFM i would seriously go the nistune, i wouldnt be able to justify the cost of the vipec. GTR injectors will be plenty for your application.

The graphics really didn't do anything for me. I did like the light up floor... but it was cooler in "Big" because it was a piano then, and original. And as fas as I'm concerned the movie "Field Of Dreams" had MUCH better scenery effects.

The animals were all just... lamepants. Each animal had a different roar of different dinosaurs from Jurassic Park. The black panther thing was the T-Rex, the little coyote things were the Dilophosaurus, the horse things were the raptor "honk" and the birds were the raptor "hiss".

The "helicopters" made NO SENSE AT ALL. If those blades are encased in a big circular shield, then they shouldn't sound like helicopter blades because the tips aren't cutting through the air making that "WHUP WHUP WHUP" sound.

..so... nothing really stood out as original, or groundbreaking. Was just a 3hr story that could have been easily half that. Only that wouldn't have stroked Cameron's ego quite as sufficiently.

and 300 would still have been a terrible movie even if it was in 3D.

I'll keep that in mind whilst doing my "research" :(

The only reason to watch avatar was at the movies, on the big screen, in 3D. Anything else and it would have just been shit.

Hell it was shit at the movies too, just epic 3D shit :(

i is back from the west.

farkers, i miss out on german club

on a funny side note, on our way to our hotel from the airport in NY, drove past 3 separate sports fields, on 2 of those, people were playing bloody cricket.

these were three separate sports fields in three different suburbs. last thing i expected to see here was cricket.

Exactly, its all it was.. watching it in 2D is like watching a dvd on a 30cm CTV.... cough cough

300 was great for the action, what more do you expect of Spartans?

    • I have done smoke test and can’t see any leak on high or low side.   checked pump and fluid can flow through. Removed the high pressure from steering and did smoke test and same on low side, no leak.   puzzled. Thinking why if it was all ok it suddenly went as car was off road for a year. Don’t want to disassemble pump yet as i can see fluid / air( compressor) can flow through with no issues
    • Which manifold mate? Meanwhile......Mark is wondering how bonnet vents would look on the NC 🤣
    • Actually,  just remembered there should be info in the threads (somewhere) about swapping to a manual steering rack and deleting power steering all together. 
    • Also had a look at the Nissan JP website looks like the 400r has a slightly shorter ratio than than the regular V37 3.133 VS 2.937 which from a guy who has driven both 3.69 vs 4.11 ratios in the S15 is bugger all. Seems that the AUTO Z runs the same ratio as the 400R but can't find any info as to if its an open or LSD? More often than not the auto LSD is open
    • Do not replace the power steering lines with this stuff. If it's anything like the Chase Bays stuff it will leak and be worse than stock. The reason why the reservoir is on the LH/passenger side of the car is because that's just where the reservoir was most convenient to fit. Don't overthink this stuff. The intake/cold side of the engine is pretty busy on these cars. And again, the hardpipe is designed to be a janky power steering cooler. In theory you can replace it with a real power steering cooler but that's really only for track use where boiling the fluid is a distinct possibility. Start with the low pressure lines feeding the pump from the reservoir. Make sure there isn't a bunch of junk in the reservoir filter. Be careful to not get ATF all over the engine bay. I hate dealing with ATF spills, you can clean it up and the slightest crevice will still release more oil that can still drip over time. You also want to inspect for leaks before you make a mess and can't tell what happened. Most likely you have a leak somewhere that is allowing fluid out and air in. Failing that it's allowing air in but not fluid out. Only place I can really see that happening is on the low pressure side because the pump will pull a slight vacuum to draw fluid in. Everything after the pump is high pressure or lower pressure, approaching atmospheric by the time it returns to the reservoir.
