took out my coilovers and put in standard suspension, rides like a 4x4 to go over the pits,

failed because of my eyelids, i knew it anyways forgot to take them off, and because of my tint

i have 8% light through the rear two doors and 13% in the front doors, aparently i have to take all the tint off the car, dont know how i can do it... i also found out that they tinted over the factory glass, well will see what happens....

sigh so annoyed

least the guy didnt waste my time and told me what to fix before he "inspected it properly"

Is your tint just the factory tint or does it look heavier? From what I understand the factory tint should be fine :s

Not something I did to my car (engine is still out of it) but what I did today:

went to Tauranga for an SDU (Skylines Down Under) dyno day. In the awd turbo class an R32 GTR made 501awkw, an R33 GTR made 381awkw and a 260RS Stagea was third with a first run of 300awkw on 14psi and on 18 psi made 324awkw (for those who remember Psymin's Stagea it is no more - he is putting all the good running gear in an R32 GTR and the car is for sale with an RB26... pretty much stock RS260).

A 4wd V8 Adventra made 228awkw!

Friday, i fitted new clarion HU and Gizzmo EBC, removed split dumps, front pipe, hi flow cat and GCG turbo off my written off r32. Yesterday i fitted split dumps and hi flow to me new stag. Have my Nistune board here, just waiting for another ECU i bought from perth to arrive, then ill fit my nistune, hi flow GCG, z32 AFM (off the r32) silicon intake pipe and tech edge wide band O2 sensor.

Then i need to sell my r32 (repairable write off, has nistune, injectors, coils and so on already fitted) to fund intercooler, injectors and coils for the stag.

Looking good...

Funniest night in history last night

finished work,went to kidafa's place to help them finish his manual conversion

all was well

took it for a spin round the block,runs really good

started heading home,and as I boosted past chris to turn off my way home I blew off an intercooler pipes.awesome

luckily chris had mike and Adam in his car and they pulled over to help

was f**ken bucketing down and we had no tools to fix the popped hose

another sau member was randomly driving past and pulled over to help

he went back to his place that was just up the road to get tools,he got back and after some swearing and mike putting water down my arse crack I got the pipe back on and tight

only to find that my battery had gone flat.thanks for jinxing me Adam!

Had jumper leads in the car so sau random did a u turn to get our cars end to end,but his hybrid pos wasn't starting my car

he starts reversing back up the portrush rd only to be pulled over by the fuzz on patrol!

Got a warning,and breatho'd and he headed home again to get a jumper pack

so us 4 clowns are standing on the footpath waiting for him to get back and got f**ken egged by a car full of douches,who carries eggs these days and pelts stranded people? Teats

anyways,finally got my green machine running and headed home. But an hour and a half standing in the rain and with my window stuck half open my interior and Gtr seats are sopping wet...

Thanks to all the lads for sticking around

big ups mike,chris and chef

I'd have been f**ked without you!

And of course thanks to the random sau good Samaritan for the tools and jump pack

ps chris,that's why you should dress appropriately.put some pants and a f**ken jumper on!

And that's my story,and mike wonders why I want to sell my stag...

Finally got to have a decent drive after fitting the front facing plenum. It still runs lumpy when cold but after that smooth as. Did 460ks on about 3/4 tank. Best I have ever got.

Also while away picked up a pair of front guards, front bar with lip and some skirts. $50. They are spares jic.

On blowing IC hoses. During testing after fitting the front mount and running huge boost, the hoses kept blowing off the straight pieces of pipe, did not matter how tight the clamps. Simple solution was to drill 4 holes and fit self tappers. The heads stopped the clamp from slipping the same as a lip or ring of weld. Easy to do and inexpensive.

    • AFM looks to be a z32 The injectors maybe old Nismo 555cc The turbo tag when looked up seems to be a gt2871 , imagine it would have the bigger rear housing .82 all look like the mid 00's mods when he started building it up. Vac hose seems right but would need to see a diagram. Great work going up there and sorting it out, be a good club car for someone wanting a good reliable rig.  I know I would like to have it but no space and too many other race cars at the moment.
    • Heys guys I got a r32 gtst speedo is out by 10kph seems the faster I go the more it be out  just seeing if anyone else had to problem and knows how to fix it 
    • I can't agree. If we hadn't all been brought up with the noise caused by the inefficiency of an ICE, no-one would actually ask for all that. An EV is like any other car, it just goes better. 
    • 2 more things I have to work out Easy one first...can anyone describe how to pull the fuel pump and sender from a 33? I can feel there is some sort of mount and clips but don't have a manual and don't know the trick......if not I'll spend some quality time in the boot witha lighter tomorrow. Second question is harder.  He had changed the upper plenum to a plazmaman but clearly got to a point with the vacuum hoses where he said "f**k it, I'm going inside for a beer" and never came back to that job because it was a mess. Am I right to think that I need: 1. Pre throttle (16mm nipple on inlet) to AAC's main 20mm fitting as the main pre throttle feed 2. ACC has a second 13m outlet joined to that 20mm fitting which I think is the pre throttle air supply for the cold start valve? 3. Cold start valve's outlet fitting then goes to Plenum (to bypass throttle?) There is some adapter on the back of the ACC with 2 fittings (13mm and 10mm), do I run the 10mm through a 1 way valve to the Brake Booster (4) and the 13mm back to a 13mm nipple on the Plenum as the Idle control (5)? 6. Run a 6mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart BOV to the Plenum? 7. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Fuel Pressure Reg to the Plenum? 8. Run a 5mm vacuum line from the Turbosmart Boost controller to the Plenum? (Wastegate already has a pre turbo pressure source running to the solenoid then the wastegate on the other side of the bay)  Any help appreciated, the GTR is quite different setup and while the Stagea also has FFP it is different again. (And no Dose, I'm not pissing it all off and putting a ethrottle on it....)
    • OK, onto some questions to try and speed up the process a little. Does anyone know what core this Garret is? I know it is a high flowed standard turbo but nothing else about it. Tag says OK 0169J - 446179-5032 Same question for the injectors, I don't know what they flow and ideally can work it out before it hits the dyno, they are a mustard yellow side feed
