it is 1986.. just like my car :D its bodacious ninja turtles!!

oh man i'm in a crazy mood today :rofl:

huge ouch about that elec problem though smooth! Autoelecs are painful business, i thought if you got it fixed for $120 or whatever you would have been getting off very lightly :D

Thanks Charly, and Mat.

Yeah camping was awesome, I love just being so totally isolated that I get to clean out all the skeletons i my closet, get them outta there :D

Was all good until I got home, found all my security screens all bent up.

They didnt get in, musta been stupid kids as even if they did get the screens off, the windows are deadbolted and I put wood in the rails so they would not have been able to get in anyway?

But the real estate are not going to fix unless there is a police report so i spent my birthday waiting for them to come around, then they call me up 4 hours late saying they wont be able to make it and migh be able to come tomorrow (today) meh stupid cops.

Not like I have a life or freinds for that matter or the money to go out and celebrate anyway, so yeah back to work, .

[qoute]Did you know that if you travel at 80km per hour instead of 100km per hour, you will reduce your fuel consumption by 50%? I'm not saying we should all travel around at 80km per hour, but if you reduce your speed by even a small amount the rewards are substantial. [/qoute]

this is why we need bigger turbos :D at 100kph im at 3000rpm which touch of the pettle and i am full boost. now add a t78 touch of pettle and are still on vac no boost :rofl: think of the savings hehe

Or even better sell the car you have and buy a Prius, hybred petrol/electric car, just think of the savings then!

Meh I dont care how much petrol is, that is the price I am willing to pay for enjoying my car.

    • Reasonably hard, although I haven't run it with the new Endless setup yet. The old brakes were F50's on 335mm rotors and the car did a 1:40.6 at Phillip Island which is a reasonable time, I'm seeing high 600s on the temperature paint. A guy I know ran the Endless fluid at WTAC without issues and he was doing 1:33's I think (Evo) with a 355/332 setup. I don't get out to the track as much as I'd like but we put the car on the hoist and spanner check every bolt and re-paint mark everything, bleed the brakes, change the fuel, check the coolant system and re-bleed blah blah blah before every event. Motorsport is expensive, RB's are expensive so a couple of hours before an event is time well spent. It's also a net time saving because if you can keep your RB from self destructing it saves you time in the long term!
    • Welcome Alice......hope you have a bit more luck from here on! What was done in the build?  
    • Hello! I'm new here, I have an R33 GTST that is currently being finished up! Last year was pretty rough, blew two stock turbos so I decided to build the car. Has been down since November, but I get it back next weekend!
    • Hello, I believe my car was imported to America in the 2000s by Kaizo Industries. Would anyone be able to help me find more info on them? I've only found all the basic stuff like that paul walker bnr34, them being shutdown by feds, just stuff like that. Any help would be much appreciated, thanks!
    • I am using Motec M150.  I am not working on the car myself actually.  My workshop is giving all these info, they are quite reputable in the industry and are very familiar with Motec and RBs and have done a few big setups with VCam and single turbo on RBs.  In fact, they built and tuned my engine from day one.  But they are stumped with my engine at the moment and cannot work out how come the compression is so low with the VCam. They told me that they have now swapped in some Kelford cams (without the VCam) and can achieve around 130psi compression and the low end torque is better, but now the engine is doughy as.  It boosts and peaks at more than 1000rpm slower, with twin HKS GTIII RS, it doesn't get full boost until over 5000rpm. I have always thought the VCam was a bit disappointing at the low rpm. To a point I had to ride the clutch a fair bit to get up a small hill from stand still.  That was when I had a clutch.  Now changing to a 8HP, I don't have that luxury and this problem has become a major issue. I am beginning to think the VCam never work since the day it was installed.  Maybe it was just sitting at the most advanced point, that is why it went good at top end but very ordinary at the bottom.  Therefore, with the help of the Holinger 6 speed and paddle shift, as long as it was moving, it drove pretty good.
