Yeah, i was watching the Exa closely. They reversed back to get a better look at it making me feel uneasy. I was just out of their sight. I'm not saying they were scoping it out or anything, but it would be hard to tell enthusiasts from theives if you get my drift.

I've only taken my car out a few times (with the parents of course, ususally them driving) but i'm worried about where it's parked all the time. I always come back to it and check it over to see if anything has happened to it. Today i was in Queenbeyan and had some kids on skate boards eye off the car. i ended up coming back out to check the car again to make sure it was ok.

I've heard of too many people getting their cars damaged or having parts stolen from them, and it makes me somewhat paranoid as i'm sure are most Skyline drivers. Its sad that we live in a society where some people can't respect others property but oh well... that's my rant for the day :)

Yea.... Guys you have to watch your cars.

There are alot of bastards out there..

Bout 3-4weeks ago i got my car keyed.. Outside the front door of Vikings in Erindale.. Im talking right at the door.

Because of the pearl paint job, its not an easy one to patch up.

Its all got to do with JEALOUSY... so It does really cost to have nice cars, in alot of ways.

    • It was roughly 3.5 hours.    car went in around 11:00 and I was done around 2:30 He did the initial runs, install the BC and then Nistune install and tune.  The best part was sitting in the lobby and hearing the skyline on full throttle at the dyno 😂😂
    • Glad it all went smooth. How long did the tuning process take?
    • Yeah that was kind of the same feedback my tuner gave me.  the boost tee is until I can sort out my plan for the electronic boost controller and what I’d get, where I’d mount the dash etc.  I’m happy with this until I can figure it out. Not a big fan of the A-pillar gauges. I’d like to get a clean install of the boost gauge - something digital like GFB.  Something like that might fit neatly where the ashtray is and look clean. I feel like replacing the OEM triple gauge is a bit extreme for a weekender like my skyline. And it’s not making crazy power to need all the additional sensors/gauges. 
    • I'm about to swap my box to Tremec T56 Magnum F & initially thinking of re-using my DCS twin plate (can get it re centred for the bigger spline) but it's been called out the box will be noisy (rattle) as the clutch is unsprung.  So I'm doing as much research as possible. I'm not so worried about holding the power as I'll go the track version which on paper will hold the maybe 1000hp I make. It's the longevity I worry about. DCS told me they don't use a sprung centre as it's just something that can break. The uni clutch has a very complicated sprung centre. Any one had or heard about any issues with it failing? Thanks in advance.
    • Auto is at least 10% (from my real, actual experience with different torque converters and manual on the same setup) ~185rwkw at 11.6psi (peak!) is entirely what one would expect without a FMIC or anything else on the intake, it does bleed off towards the higher RPM so it's what, 9psi there? Note: There is nothing that can be done about this with a manual boost tee. If you want to hold it steady and gain more top end, well - You will need electronic boost control.....
