lol what knob jockeys.... why would you race in the streets in one of Australias most heavily policed shires, 2nd of all it sounds like they were both non turbos since they surposedly reached 145 in an 80 zone.... -10km/h from dodgey radar and take off another 20km/h by the time the press writes the story.

So they were probably street racing at a grand total speed of 115ish and 105ishkm/h (Disclaimer: most of what i wrote is made up)

Is anyone clear on what happens to the cars now? - confiscated for how long? - and doesn't the driver have to pay a daily impound fee as well?

lol looks like the skyline won :banana: - but the idiot is paying for it now

I know of a work mates son who lost his car for three months and it cost $250 for the tow truck plus $15 per day.....albeit the car was stored undercover...

I'm also from Balgownie where that skyline is from, any one know the colour of the skyline??.

we have nothing compared to melbournes underground racing scene, go to SAU vic page and see what there talking about on there...... tubbed 8second things leaving steam roller burnouts in industrial areas, learner drivers in un rego'd utes dragging, dedicated meetings for an hour at a time....

im from the shire and hardly dont see many cops at all....not that it gives me an excuse to do stupid things

u do stupid things and u will be caught !

also last friday, goin over captain cook bridge towards taren point, i saw a copper hidding up in the bridge, woodlands rd i think, with his radar gun, its 80km/h but i always get passed like im standing still...idiots

think you been hiding under a rock..... massive amount of boys in blue from menai/illawong wright through to nulla, mostly situated at alfords point bridge (99% chance of radar on any friday/ saturday), Sutho, miranda (thanks mainly to carmens), carringbar and nulla itself.

also look at the highlighted part above, subconsiously your brains telling you the oppoite of what you were trying to say lol

Cheers and everyone stay clean and out of trouble, media has already made us look like idiots so lets not give them any fuel for another media storm

    • Yeah the ACL and similar formable heat shielding materials are really nice. But most people do not have the patience or talent to do a good job like that. Almost anything is better than nothing though. Even if you didn't form it closely like that and just had a slab of it slipped in between the manifold and somewhere/thing you wanted to protect, you would gain benefit. There has to be a market opportunity for people like Artec to make formed heatshields to suit their cast manifolds. The fact that they are cast means that they are consistently the exact same dimensions and they could add bosses to the castings like you see on stockers to allow heat shields to be firmly attached yet floating away from the manifold itself.
    • I've seen some stuff like this as well, not sure if it's a good idea or anything but it does have more standoff from the piping than the conventional fiberglass wrap:  
    • Jap premium will be 100 RON. You should use 98.
    • The exhaust gases are at their highest temperature as they leave the exhaust port and enter the manifold. They cool as they flow through the manifold because they transfer heat to the manifold and the manifold loses heat to the surrounding environment. Thus, inevitably, the exhaust gases are cooler as they enter the turbo compared to when they entered the exhaust manifold. So, yes, the exhaust manifold can easily get as hot as the turbine housing. Having said that, you will generally see the highest temperatures where the exhaust gases have to slow down or they are concentrated into one area - which is usually the collector on the manifold and in the turbine housing, because the gases slam into the metal at those places, increasing the convective heat transfer coefficient and transferring even more heat to the metal than they might just flowing past elsewhere. Exhaust manifold heat shields are a good idea - certainly for the stock manifold they are there from the factory. People seldom have anything like that on a tubular manifold because they are hard to achieve. Some might wrap a tube manifold with fibreglass tape - but this has a reputation of leading to cracked welds. The best case is generally to put ceramic coating onto the manifold to prevent it getting as hot (internal coating) and radiating/convecting heat into the bay (external coating). All the real heat from a turbo comes from the exhaust side. The gases entering are at ~800-900°C and the steel/iron gets nearly that hot. The compressor side is only going to heat the charge air up to <<200°C (typically not much more than 100°C). So that's nothing, by comparison. The compressor is not a significant source of engine bay heat.
    • Late to the party, specifically joined this forum as I just bought one of these and this thread has been a gold mine of info. If the OP is still around, mind if I ask what gas you been putting in yours? Mine has a Japanese sticker in the cap saying premium but it seems to get way worse mileage on premium (95) than 91. I always thought it was meant to be the other way round🤷 I do think Nissans claimed "6l/100km" is a bit fantastical 😂
