[dezz]

I have nothing

[KyuubiGTR]

name it akamaru - k go

ohhh i wanna get one now just so i can!

i have nothing at the moment ether but full hanging for a dog...or a monkey...or panda cub

[emts]

I got a walbro

No issues.......yet lol

yeah mine have died as well.

on 3rd pump in what 4 years.

at least with no rear seat and boot trim it a quick change

[llama_au]

Mine were genuine too..

And birds it does no negative harm to have heat range 7's

Is a negative harm a positive?

[emts]

any-one watch wheeler dealers?

watching an ep now with a R33 GTS-T!

[llama_au]

f*k i'm getting better at parking close to poles aye. I have to park next to a pole. And when I do, if i drive straight, mirror will just scrape the pole. Haha. Too many careless kids and people who slam doors.

I park next to a pole nearly every time. Only had one instance where I wasn't paying enough attention and the wheel arches on the Cube stick out a fair way from the body. Lucky I had the flares.

Not harm, but takes longer for the spark plugs to reach optimal running temperature...when you're driving a daily on short trips it makes a difference. Always go as hot as you can without overheating - just like injectors, going as small as you can without running too much duty cycle.

Birds, get on to this tv show. Provided some good luls

sbs should have it on their website tomorrow?

[llama_au]

Essentially, I could park our straight piped, externally gated S15 track car outside Knox police station...that short, fat asshole can write a Tom Clancy novel of defects for it...and then proceed to shove the whole notebook up his own ass using his tears as lubricant.

Cars have been defected on Trader Plates. So yeah, you kinda couldn't

I ran 7's on my SR20. Wasn't the greatest idea for a car being moved short distances occasionally. Would foul a set beyond use in 1000km's.

i was happy to sit on the limiter on a 40c day at DECA with a trent tune and never managed to get the light on....

jus sayin

Btw I see you may have found 'da 1' e7 pending a check over

If his name isn't Sven or Hans, you're being ripped off.

haha probably is I've just never asked

They are apparently well audi / vw / BMW

Hmm, still not sure man. I go to VolksHome in Thomastown because it's close to me

holy jeebize id love one but i dont think i could handle a bear haha

Nah those are big males, our female is much smaller

Dog or bear?

Nick would say Dog but its clearly a bear/beast id love to have this bad boy guarding the GTR but the fact that there bigger then me worries me

Yeah dog, although they do have a really strange smell about them that isn't dog at all

i've got a cat. feed, and ignore.

I prefer cats, I wasn't a big fan of dogs until we got Mechka though. She is the best with who know her

That's why I recommend 6s, particularly if you have a conservative/rich tune. Stock engines run 5s okay...no reason anything this side of 300rwkw can't deal with 6s for daily duties with a thrashing here and there.

reading evolutionoz forums eh?

yeah, everything set to go as long as the compression holds up and there is no rust / structural damage

Fair point. I had to run em on the 200, I found at 270 with a four banger, 6 was just too warm

Every car is different

Just going from a PFC to a PFC-Pro with identical tune, my knock went up by 15 - wasn't a problem with the tune, just the way the ECU was interpreting the signal, so it would hummmm along at 35 and it was totally fine (where previous it'd never go above 20).

His knock sensor could be picking up a little more noise than yours did. Either way 65 knock isn't great, but it's still not bad. Anything over 35-70 usually just means there is 1-2 cells that need attention. Misfiring will also cause the knock sensor to go nuts as well, same as hitting limiters etc.

Odi - wideband won't show you much either as by the time it's leaned off to a point that you'll notice, you've already done the damage (no-one stares @ a gauge when fully up it). Much the same as oil pressure dropping when @ 7000rpm, buy the time you notice/light comes on, the motor is f**ked anyway unless you are setting the ECU up to shut the car down in such a situation via a trigger/value/aux input, which a PFC doesn't have.

I'd suggest having the fuel pressure checked, possible the walbro is faltering now and again, I had one give issues like that 6-7 years ago. However with the misfire could just be a case of a loom/grounding issue. Even voltage supply, so not the coilpacks themselves either. Could also be the CAS playing up intermittently, they have a habit of doing that when they are letting go (you can get another 6-12 months out of them sometimes before they die and the car just wont turn on).

Nissan electricals are a headache

you know it

haha exciting stuff. same as aaron... pm me if links available if you will hehe

I love the dodgy branding they do on Initial D to get out of copyright infringment. It's like a genuine Bolex.
