Heheh, you should move to any of the numerous states in America where the law to wear a helmet doesn't exist!

but then it wouldn't be breaking the law = not tuff

yeah you wear you head on the pavement when you go down :P

gangsta bikers dont go down.

Hey guys, my right rear brake is grabbing/stuck.

Anyone know how i can release it from being stuck?? I'm going camping tomorrow which is like 1.5hours drive... unless someone from the west side want to give me a hand tonight?

Thinking about winging it but scared as I'm an amature!

Sounds like one of the shafts that guide the brakes closed is bent. You'd need a new caliper, i wouldn't try to straighten the shaft you'll never get it straight.. Good luck

So don't bother trying to unstuck it?

The problem is that I won't have time to drop by a mechanic until Monday.... and my car is used to carry luggages to camp tomorrow. :wacko:

You can try by undoing the bolts on the back of the caliper that hold the front face on, but if it is one of the shafts, chances of getting it back together without attempting to straighten it is minimal..

hmmmm..... not liking my chances here .

Do you know if it takes long to fix my problem at a brake shop?

Worst comes, I'll just have to wing it tomorrow to the camp site and hope for the best.

Well if u can pick up another caliper tonight it would take about half an hour plus a brake fluid bleed!

With the bike?

Or alvin letting me drive a turbo for the first time through the otways?

Not sure, guy on the commodore thread said so. Didn't ask on there as its a bit more public.

I asked Justin and he didn't see any incidents

    • Right, but that's in-cylinder, there's the interaction between that and the TWC which complicates things. Pulling out timing to reduce NOx is a strategy I saw in transitional emissions vehicles like stuff from 1974 or so. The two inlet runner system is interesting but I'm not sure it makes a huge difference as far as emissions goes, is it a tumble valve? I've seen stuff like that even in cars from the late 80s. 
    • Hello all,   so i recently swapped out my rb20de neo with an rb25de neo( engine,transmission, wiring and the diff everything) but i just cant get the gear indication light on the dash to work when i switch to tiptronic mode. Note there is a steering wheel switch beside the shifter and i dont have that. I did notice yesterday while switching to tiptronic that the indicator on the dash started to work but it didn't afterwards. Does anyone know how this actually works? Or do i still need that steering wheel switch to be connected and on for that gear indicator to work?
    • Hence why I said earlier that I don't think the turbo Neos ever would have actually qualified as an LEV. I suspect the only actual LEVs that came out of Nissan were the NA Neos. Still call them all Neos. They all stil have the Neo-ness. Just that they don't all qualify as as LEVs.
    • It will give gains, but you wont hit 600 It will give gains but it wont get you to 600 imo. You will also sacrifice low down and you will be adding extra volume if you port match it, more so if you port the plenum runners depending and how its done I think the only time youre going to see about 100hp gains is if the car is making well over 1k kw I do have a spare set that I was going to test with, but i dont actually think there is anything worth getting going larger. I did a fair few S14/S15 and the standard TB is fairly small, I went to 60 and in some cases 64mm which is significant over the stock unit. You can also get some weird ratio changes. I think 20kw will be a stretch on a roller dyno. If I had it apart I might mill the shafts a little and not expect much, I think the stock size is still pretty good for a street/track car even with larger capacity. I might change diameter it if its a drag only car
