just read that convo, all im going to say is, no matter how superior the next gen models are, and will be.

it will never be enough to quash someones love for something

eg- i LOVE r32 GTRs.. i know R33s are better in every way etc, would still pick an R32 because of the <3

the only thing any GTR can aspire to be is slightly more expensive than another car of the same vintage.

eg:

KPGC10 GTR is more exxy than a 240Z

a KPGC10 is nowhere near as collectible as a proper limited edition like a Falcon GT.

squires loft is always reviewed brillianty, although i havent bothered myself yet.

going to a pub is always going to be shit, as no good chef's work there. they dont know how to cook a steak and dont care. they are usually just cooks anyway. a gooood steak is an art and takes a long time to learn. you have to be able to know the meat by look and feel alone and alter many things accordingly. you also have to be able cook it to a degree less than ordered and let it rest it's way up to the desired temp. The only way you will ever get this 100% is by cooking 1000's of them with a seriously good chef over your shoulder checking every one.

The Grill Room, i posted early in the thread etc - It used to be a Squires Loft, and then went out on their own years ago.

So it's certainly "up there".

Been to the CBF Squires Loft a few times myself, very good venue also.

LOL @ Pub, everytime i've had a steak @ a pub - asked for Med Rare, it's come out with only a slight tinge of pink in the middle.

You get over trying to have an argument with the staff about how it's not Med Rare and some 17yo comes outta the kitchen to try and tell me I'm wrong :D

this is the car i want now, love the sound of the supercharger.

Mate of mines blown LS1 sounds like that. The sound it makes coming up behind you is just downright scary

Thing runs 10s and he drives it daily LOL, rather ridiculous, but amusing.

wow that would be a fun car to have. i agree with sounding scary with one of those coming up behind you i love it. would love to see what it feels like to be in a supercharged v8 one day.

on another note went and saw Millencolin and Pennywise last night and it was awesome, cant wait to see them again at soundwave :D

I use to listen to millencolin in like grade 5 it was awesome :P

get back into them, its better than all the shit music thats out now with there digitalised voices and music made with no instruments and not to mention making up there own words and not pronouncing them correctly . trying not to sound racist but all that shit RnB music that black people sing about there feelings and have such girly voices i HATE IT!!!

anywho that's enough ranting im bored because im on holidays lol.

    • Dunno what to tell you, when I look at it on Consult I can see this warmup timing map kicking in around 40C coolant temp and it sticks around for a while:  At part throttle on the normal base timing map it peaks around ~43 degrees of timing or something like that, this warmup timing map drops it to like 12-15 degrees. 
    • I don't think that's what you're seeing. Something else doing that. The only time I've seen it get so retarded is when it's trying to control idle (in which case we're not talking about mapped timing tagets anyway) and when there is an extreme coolant temperature sensor fault. The RB26 ECU is essentially the same as the 20 ECU and I knew that ging inside out. There is no facility for it to retard that heavily on cold start. The OEMs never used to do it back then. I mean, shit, the catalyst is abotu 3 miles down the exhaust anyway. Early light-off was just a twinkle in some EPA arsehole's eye back then, not a regular engine control strategy.
    • I must preface my comments with a general expression of ignorance. I have no specific knowledge of these NA automtaic things. I can only assume that the "steering wheel button" is for enabling the tiptronic controls. Wierd that it would even need/want a button for that... But anyway.... Was the car previously tiptronic? Did you put a new cluster in as part of all this?
    • Regardless, it doesn't seem wise especially on RBs to actually chase MBT. Timing scatter is the big one on stock CAS, even if that's fixed overshoot is worse than undershoot. 
    • It's all about reducing the overall output. Reduce the source of it, you have wayyyy less to deal with in every other step and trick you play with. It's why something like a modern vehicle, so VW, Audi etc, there's thousands of tables for the ECU to calculate what it should be doing with the engine.   Why would you NOT reduce emissions the most effective way possible, when it has very minimal tradeoff, AND manufacturers are always struggling to meet the current standards.
