Spotted a silver R33 in my driveway at work in Fyshwick (on Gladstone street near the gun shop) spotted ZCR on Parkes Way (Yes, it is relevant as I was in my skyline for once and I saw him somewhere other than at home) got beeped at by a maroon r33 on Canberra ave right near the roadworks at the bridge, they were stopped at the lights heading the other way sorry I saw you late whoever it was so didn't wave...

Ya I'm working on it :P Plan to go less stretch and a bit less rear camber. Should fill the guards up a bit more. Right now working on power and getting a new engine back into my pig :)

Is that the Pearl White one?

If so....mint car...I followed you into Woden Westfield one evening...was popping flames out the pipe just idling around...but I must say needs MOAR tyre under the bum....wheels are right....but I hate tyre stretch lol

Spotted a dark blue R33 with a white front quarter panel at Wanniassa shops about 2pm

And forgot: spotted a blue(?) wingless R34 with LED tailights about midnight on Hindmarsh Drive about midnight the other night, looked really good.

Yeah there's a few like that. I don't tend to wave first unless I "know" the car/people.... or I'm flying past and a wave out the window is easy to do and who cares if they wave back. Sitting at the lights just leads to awkwardness if they don't wave back :D

I'll always wave back if they wave first though!

just sit there staring at them blankly if they don't wave back hahahaha

So I spotted a dude in a Rodeo ute or something next to me at the lights in tuggers today frantically searching his pocket for his phone to take a pic of my newly applied stickers (courtesy of Clutch, wherever that f**ker has disappeared to):

    • how do you know voltage is fine?  quick easy test is connect DMM up and put it on max/min mode, remove fuel pump fuse, crank car for 3-5s, go check min voltage You'd be surprised how many "healthy" batteries are showing under 10v during this test in cold weather. 
    • Not properly. You need to be able to dissipate 100 amps or so to doing it meaningfully. You can do it indirectly by watching to see how far the voltage falls during cranking. Unplug the coils or something else to prevent it from starting so you can get a good couple or three chugs. It also helps if you have the multimeter set up reading before you start, and that it has max/min functions. So you can catch the real minimum without having to watch the screen, which often doesn't update fast enough to show the real max/min in dynamic situations. Or use a digital oscilloscope, which can be obtained for <<$100 from Aliexpress (although I'd argue for paying up to ~$200 for a nicer one). A >4 yr old battery will very likely be well down the path to the knackery. Many only last 5-6 years these days. The cold weather lately will definitely make it worse.
    • Hmmm, what do you mean by getting weaker? And where did you get that test done? I've been wondering about my battery because the cold starts crank super slowly. The voltage is fine. Not sure if cranking amps can be checked at home. Battery is 4+ years old.
    • No. The simplest wastegate hookup, with no solenoid or other form of "boost control" (ie, control over your boost control, if you know what I mean) is a single hose, direct from the turbo outlet/hot pipe, straight and only to the wastegate actuator. It is that pressure signal that drives the wastegate to open, providing the boost control (and by "boost control" here, I mean, limiting how high it can go, which is essentially the spring pressure of the actuator). You only end up with tee pieces and alternate flow paths once you start adding things to the boost control system to allow you to determine how much of that boost signal makes it to the actuator. There are so many ways to do that that there is no single way to run the hoses and tees and the like. If you have a stock boost solenoid, then all it does is either allow all the boost signal to go to the actuator, or open up to allow some of it to bleed off. There needs to be a restriction in that bleeder to allow only a small amount to bleed off. And in a stock system, that would then be plumbed back to the turbo inlet (for "emissions control" reasons). That is actually what that nipple on your BOV return pipe could/would be for. If you have an aftermarket boost controller and solenoid, then the above is mostly true, but there is no need for a restrictor in the bleed, because the solenoid is pulse width modulated to create a variable bleed off. The air that escapes from the bleed can either be vented, or also returned to the turbo inlet. For emissions reasons it should be returned to inlet, but the amount of air being vented is so small that it really doesn't matter (either from an emissions perspective, or from an air-fuel ratio affecting perspective).
    • And other times you just need to go buy bigger injectors?
