I have read this thread with interest and am happy to see that the majority of forum members have sensible opinions about this incident.

I have yet to offer my opinion on the matter to date, apart from agreeing with some others.

So therefore without further hesitation I would like to announce:

MINES_DATSUN - you win B-Man's TOOL OF THE YEAR ! ! ! ( and it is only Janurary - he he :D )

Oh, and here's some tips for you :

(I've listed them all out so you can print them out and put the print out by your bedside and recite it before you go to sleep)

Please do not fix your car

Please do not get another Skyline

Please enroll in Advanced Driver Training

Please get a job and earn money to pay for your next car (and insurance, see point below)

Please do not rely on your parents to bail you out all the time

Please insure your next car with that Insurance Company out of the Cayman Islands

Please find another interest other than cars (Girls are good !) (SAU Fathers, lock up your daughters......:-( )

Please go post on other forums - you waste bandwidth with the amount of attention you attract.

Please throw away all you G-Tech Pros that you use to measure how fast you are going on public roads.

Please think about how many people you could have killed (including yourself) if you the situation was different.

Please think about how you affected all other Skyline owners insurance premiums with your contribution to the increase in 'stupid immature dumb things eva done by 20 year olds with a quarter of a brain'

Please think seriously about taking your perceived ability to drive to the track where you can't do anything else but wreck your own car.

Please do not break the road laws any more - they are there for a reason

Please do not break the age:power to weight ration any more - there is a reason for that too.

Please turn yourself into the authorities for all of the above - maybe they can help you ?

Please ??

i cant belive this shit happens around the world too thought it was just here

parent buy the kid a fast car

he goes racing (or doing something stupid)

crashes it , gets killed or paralyzed

if nothing happens to him go back to strep one

gee , i mean if you cant drive properly then dont drive

and a gtr is too much for you as it is too much for me , maybe you should get a a RB20E (not even a DE) skyline with an auto tranny to get you started not a gtr .

wish the best for my self with 90% of the crazy drivers here.

cheers and condelences (to the poor bus stop)

Holy crap, is this going to be one of those famous internet "Read what this stupid fcukwit did..." threads that gets posted around from forum to forum until we have people signing up from all over the world just to say hi in this thread?!?!

SAU IS GOING TO BE FAMOUS!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks MINES_DATSUN!!! :D

the previous car i had before was a 355 xcop vt commodore.. rid that off.

now its this r33 and i hope my r32 wont be ridden off ...

the reason why there was all wires near the boost gauge ( as you can see it was a gauge lieng around) was becasue my wires were getting fixed about 10 minutes before the accident. ill have full spec details on the car (images) .

i have had ylwgtr2 to come over and have a look with his professional assitance i now have plans on what im doing to get this beast back on the streets

thanks for all the flaming and i appreciate the people wishing me luck next time.

Cheers

um, can you please tell us wtf a 355 xcop vt commo is? if you mean 355 cu. in. WRONG!! if its a vt series one, it'll be a 304 cu. in. (5.0 lt) if its a series 2 it'll be a 350 cu.in. (5.7lt)... or do you mean kw... cuz they still aren't up that high!!!

to tell you the truth i can probably drive a car better then all you 20 year olds in SAU. not the old dudes in here no way.

all i have to say i was unlucky. now shut your frigin mouths and stop flooding SAU with bullcrap thats already been said by people 90times.

Cheers

    • You're not wrong, but more than a few times I've heard of people running into issues where their injector characterization isn't quite right and that approach works for that specific configuration but once they switch over to a new set they discover a whole bunch of stuff wasn't set up correctly. It's slightly more annoying to reverse engineer the OEM MAF transfer function but you already have the sensor wired up to the factory harness so keeping it around for a few weeks more while you figure out the tune is easy enough. I've seen GM also use a combination of both MAF + MAP in their ECUs before, MAF is for steady state and a calculation of the cylinder VE to correct the base VE table, then in transients it uses that calculated VE + raw MAP to determine cylinder filling somehow.
    • I know this one’s the BB one. My tuner did make mention about the actuator. I am curious about the VCT as well
    • Might also needs a stronger actuator with the right preloading. With older 2019 built bush G3 units, BB upgrade or 21U housing down size makes a pretty decent gain in response as well. 
    • Hey lads  so im finally putting together my rb30 forged bottom end and ran into an issue. I measured my main bearing clearance with arp main studs torqued to 60 ft-lbs using ACL H series STD size bearings and standard, un-ground crank shaft journals and got an oil clearance reading of about 1.3 thou measuring straight up and down and about 2.8 thou measuring at a 45 degree angle (just above and below the parting line). My machine shop said they measured the main tunnel and it was all within spec (they didnt say the actual measurement) and to go with a standard size bearing, which i have done and the clearance is too tight, I'm guessing because of the extra clamping force from the arp studs distorting the main tunnel. I was wanting to run about 2.5 thou main bearing clearance.  My questions are: 1. could i just use the HX extra 1 thou clearance ACL bearings? that would fix my straight up and down clearance making it about 2.3 thou, but then would the side to side clearance be too big at around 3.8 thou? 2. what actually is the recommended main bearing clearance for measuring near the parting line / side to side. i know its supposed to be bigger as the bearing has some eccentricity built into it but how much more clearance should there be compared to the straight up and down measurement? at the moment there is about 1.5thou difference, is that acceptable or should it be less? 3. If i took the engine block + girdle back to the machine shop and got them to line bore the main tunnel (like i told them to do the first time, but they said it didnt need it) what bearing size would i buy? the STD size bearing shells already slide in fairly easily with no real resistance, some even falling out if i tip the girdle up-side-down. If im taking material out of the main tunnel would i need a bearing with extra material on the back side to make up for it? this is probably confusing af to read so if something doesn't make sense let me know and ill try explaining in a different way. My machine shop doesn't come back from christmas break until mid January, hence why i'm asking these questions here. TIA for any help or info 
    • I bought the model back in Japan in Feb. I realised I could never build it, looked around for people who could build it, turns out there's some very skilled people out there that will make copies of 1:1 cars or near enough. I'm not really a photo guy... but people were dragging me in a group chat for the choice of bumper as someone else saw the car before it was finished as they are also a customer of that shop. I took the photo in the above post because I was pretty confident that the lip would work wonders for it. Here's some more in-progress and almost-done pics. It gives a good enough idea as to what the rear looks like!   I have also booked in a track day at the end of January. Lets all hope that is nothing but pure fun and games. If it's not pure fun and games, well, I've already got half an engine spare in the cupboard
