hey guys...

just a little warning for those in the Phillip region..

i belive that there may be a person or persons targeting skylines (33's in particular) floating around..

i have had 2 attempted break ins with what i believe to be the want to steal the car or as jmany pasts from it as they can for their own vehicle..

i believe this as last night at about 2:30am my alarm went off and we disturbed someone breaking into my car.. upon further inspection it turned out they had unbolted the front bumper lip on my series 2 and attempted to pull it off.. the adhesive that was used must have been a good one cause they gave up and smashed the drivers window instead.. i believe they may have been trying to take the whole car.. word to the wise, if you have a skyline and you don't have an alarm, GET ONE....... it has saved mine a couple of times now... grrrrrrrr....

i got lucky and we heard it go off.. i was even luckier that i had a spare glass in my garage and was able to fix her today.. still points of damage that i am cranky as all F@#$ about, especially when i've worked hard to get this close to where i want it.. now it's going to require more blood (hopefully theirs) sweat and tears to get back on track...

so please be warned and keep a sharp eye out...

cheers.

    • What ECU is on your car @silviaz? You can just change the idle target table yourself and the IACV duty cycle. Noting that if you play around with the screw you'll also need to revisit the idle base duty table as you will end up offsetting the lot. Another reason why DBW is superior, there's less mucking about.
    • Yep. Saw that on the image above but, wonder if it makes more sense to clean out the iacv because let's say in theory mine is dirty and if I clean it the rpm will drop. If I first go to my tuner to drop the rpm and then go to clean my iacv won't it drop further or is the rpm a fixed number?
    • Yeah it was a good result, and confirming the car is full of fluids and all interior etc in, other than fuel. I think a few pages back (maybe many pages!) he mentioned some serious lightening in the doors with the chassis punch, might have been done elsewhere I hadn't seen yet too
    • He still had the suspension dialled in for him! I would have sworn the lowest weight he ever got to was 1300kg though Maybe Neil had been drilling a LOT of holes somewhere you haven't found yet... 😛 Or has he also drained all the gearbox and diff oil out too, between it, and a tank full of fuel there's about 65kg to 70kg to add back in I'd guess. 😛
    • Yeah this isn't a super complex shape, but I was still happy to buy instead of fab version 1; very little in a modern can is a flat surface, and that is true here again - the undertray has about 50mm in height differences that I would have had to work out myself. I will probably make something more substantial before it does any rally, I don't think 1mm steel is too much use as a bash plate. There is also cooling to think about, Z1 have done a bit of development and have some air holes and louvers in the shape, will see how that works out too
