first day at work with the magistrates court was a sucess ;)

good ppl and interesting work... already seen 2 ppl i know rock up to sort out their fees/fines.

had a celebration dinner on sat night with teh mrs. bought 2 300gm cuts of wagyu grade scotch fillet... at $90/Kg it is worth every cent! nothing better than a rare primo quality steak to get me going :P

Congrats on your 1st day Carl...glad it all went well, HOWEVER, about that marriage proposal, consider it withdrawn forthwith..........you're too high maintenance!!

*sigh*... just as well I suppose, 2people with no hair is a recipe for disaster

Just thought I'd chuck up a new picture of my rig guys :)

Not the prittiest thing, but I like the style of it, and its got a list as long as my arm of mods.

Entering D-school this Saturday so should be very interesting day :)

Cheers mang :)

Perfect caption, I'll have some R33 GT-R wheels on it this weekend too otherwise I probably won't do much else to it looks wise other then paint the wheels white. I want a supermade instant gentelman front bar (i think thats what it is) but I'll probably just smash it on a tyre wall anyway so seems a bit pointless and a waste of good $$ to me :).

Maybe some are, some aren't? I have been done and got the photo with 2 other cars in different lanes in the pic and I questioned how they know it was me, and they said they get an individual reading off each lane so can tell which car in the pic is speeding.

each lane has a set of electro magnetic sensors embedded in the ashpalt, hence they can detect the decreased timing between coils for individual lanes. even if your car had an invisable cloaking device, the camera would still go off due to the pressure of the wheels on the road.

What about inertial dampeners or even anti gravity devices? I have both these features standard, they seem to treat me fine

    • Got the motor out and torn down. I'll be dropping off the block Monday. Luckily the scoring on Cyl6 is much less pronounced then the pictures made it out to seem. It can barely be felt. If you pass your finger over it 10x you'll barely notice it. Hopefully by some chance it will only require a honing. I'm not in the mood to buy one size larger pistons or another block. Oddly enough my 6th cylinder with the scoring has extremely clean intake valves compared to my other 5 cylinders. I'm worried the scoring was caused by too much fuel or Water/Methanol washing the cylinder. I'll review some old logs to confirm.  This was also the first time I pull an engine with the transmission still attached. It went much better then expected. I was worried my CD009 wouldn't make it easy due to its sheer size but it was much easier this way. 
    • From the pictures I have when doing the job the flywheel is the same diameter, I don't think they're playing weird tricks like putting weights at the outer diameter to increase flywheel inertia or anything like that. The OEM flywheel is definitely heavier, but it's not a huge difference. Quoted weight savings of the clutch is 2 kg so I can't imagine the flywheel being lighter than ~7 kg. Kind of regret not weighing it before the clutch went into the car but as far as driveability goes I have no complaints.
    • HKS trigger kit should be very easy to integrate with a Link. It's a 36-2 crank trigger. Hard part is finding the motivation to take off the timing belt and everything on the front of the engine to install it. You also need to cut out a hole in the oil pump housing so the sensor can read the trigger wheel. Changing out the cam sensor for a 24 tooth setup is probably good enough but as others have mentioned depending on what underlying assumptions are changed it becomes more of a problem. Reading the crank state off of the cam is an abstraction that works in the general case, but if you have an edge case it makes less and less sense. There is a GTX2860 gen 2 that can take a compact 5 bolt housing so it's direct bolt on but I'm not 100% sure of what's involved. Peak compressor efficiency drops off a bit on these turbos vs -5s, 77% vs 73% but you get way, way wider region of operation. The -5s have a really strange surge line in their compressor map that is all over the place. If you think the hot side on the -5s aren't open enough you can try the Tomei T550B turbos which a local tuner seems to be happy with:
    • i need a complete tail light for my R33 GTR if you have please let me know.
    • I need a great maintenance workshop around Idaho, if you know one please let me know..
