I was very tempted. Called to clarify overall condition.

Decided it was a waste of money for the street wich is where my focus lies atm.

Good choice :woot:

If a DR30 could ever do 260 should you be looking at the speedo anyway

IF ............................... The DR30 now owned by Cazz was clocked on radar down conrod straight at over 280kph, so why would you think another DR isn't capable of 260?????????

I think my DR in top spec & tune would be capable of something like it, if I could find a track with a straight long enough to get to it.

That aside, it would look really cool eh! Probably a bit more so than the 200kph you wanted to put into yours.

Would that be the speedo you were going to send me 2 years ago that never eventuated Dennis?

I only wanted a speedo that worked.

As usual you can't read and understand posts properly standing on your soapbox.

Who cares if a DR30 can do those speeds or not , my point was at 260kph should you really be focusing on watching your speedo.

I got the point the first time & yes it was and you were also told 2 years ago that the one I had, had a broken illuminator and you declined the offer.

Are you still looking for one, because you can have the whole cluster out of my DR for shit, I'll put it in the post tonight if you wish?

Maybe you should tell the whole truth and not just selected parts of it that make you feel good & sound like your the guru of understanding?

And when else do you get to look at any gauges but when your hurtling along a straight at whatever plus. In my hay day, it was only the straight that you had time to glance at the gauges to make sure everything was doing it's thing. This is why I have a big 50mm red light on the dash of my DR and when/if it comes on, it's foot off the loud pedal and instant shut down no matter where you are.

And who ever FOCUSES as you put it on a speedo ANYWHERE and at any time???

Cheers, D

      Mistakes were made, my R34 Story

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      MR HAMMER has said his piece. Painted up to avoid Rusty Rusty. Actually lines up well. (i.e it lines up the same as the unmolested GTR guard). Turns out the GTR Strut brace does foul on the bonnet vents ever so slightly. May need a little bendy bendy if intended to keep using with a strut brace. So spacing it out to clear the FAST102 is not an option. Annoyingly, the bonnet vents also foul on the heater lines running over the engine. Given this engine does not EVER require a heater, a delete loop is going to be used. Don't worry, the defogger uses the AC. The heater is basically "Do not use the aircon and turn the fan on". It will still be effective, I promise.... once I get the system regassed... Will have to revisit with unvented bonnet I suppose, and suitable strut brace. There's plans to do this and other things tonight and bleed brakes (there was a weep) and put the bumper back on, and take Good Friday morning - Because troubleshooting on the side of the road limping it home at midnight tonight is ... not very smart.

      R32 GTS (RB20DE) Injectors Replacement

      By GabsReDeal · Posted

      Thank you all for you assistance. I contacted Nistune regarding the support for the RB20DE along with my ECU Code (23710-10U00). They do have a map for it and added the RB20DE as a purchasable option now as well. They also added Malta as a Billing and Delivery options as this was missing. I was honestly amazed at their quick response and action, it took less than 24 hours. I also looked again at direct fit options for injectors, just in case I were to replace them. DeatschWerks seem to use a Bosch EV14 base and makes ones that fit mine at 440cc lowest, but also have 550cc at the same price. I tried looking for other direct fit options and managed to find one (also Bosch EV14 based) which includes a plug and play adapter on ebay. Did a small test with a Noid Light on the troubled injectors and all seems good, so they are pulsing properly electrically. One weird part is that they are missing on the same two cylinders as before I got the injectors cleaned. Mechanic also found this weird as he did not label the injectors and it is unlikely to have the faulty injectors be installed in the same cylinders.

      Put a hand on an injector and see if that's what the buzzing is. You might be triggering the injectors by moving off idle command.

      Ah, should have been clearer. Currently has a flex sensor installed all good to go.    like u mentioned, I’ve only ever known the car on e85, I might hate 98, but I have to try it out first. Everyone says the -5 turbos get pretty laggy on 98 octane tho…
